Breaking a loop at any slide

I am trying to create a looping presentation, but I want to break out of the loop at any time by hitting a key on the keyboard so I can go to another program. I am using Captivate 5.5 and am attempting to publish to an .exe file to run on the desktop.
Thank you.

Welcome to our community
You seem to be thinking that the Captivate exe somehow takes over your PC? Can't you simply prss Alt+Tab and switch focus to something else?
If you press Esc, you exit the EXE.
Cheers... Rick

Keynote presentations when using wireless libratone zipp speaker there is a 2sec delay before any slide containing video/audio plays - tried connection through apple TV still the same. Any ideas?

Thanks Gary, I think I should have mentioned that I have wired my other speakers and it works fine.
I just wanted to go wireless when presenting in front of class, simply to avoid trailing wires from the macbook which I position in front of me on a desk next to the projector and the speakers are behind me next to the screen.
I have struggled to find a solution, and reading through other discussions it is a problem that perhaps only Apple can solve.
I hope the new 'Yosemite' will resolve the problem.
Thank you once again for your reply.

Is there any slider in Aperture that equates to "fill light" in Light Room

is there any slider in Aperture that equates to "fill light" in Lightroom? thank u, joanlvh

I always have to chuckle at this question. Aperture introduced a much, much more sophisticated tool, Highlights and Shadows, in Aperture 2, if not 1.5. Now that Lightroom has finally caught up, everyone thinks that it is something new.
You may find this thread helpful: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18038140#18038140
Bottom line, Highlights and Shadows can do much more than "Fill Light." And, in any case, Lightroom 4 dropped "Fill Light" for ... "Highlights and Shadows."
If you want a brute force "Fill Light", try some of these:
-- "Brightness"
-- Brushing Dodge and Burn
Enjoy!

I'm trying to update my software to iTunes 10.5.2. I click on the install button, click the Accept button, the software checks for updates, and then I am back at the original download screen. I can't seem to get past this loop. Any suggestions?

I'm trying to update my software to iTunes 10.5.2. I click on the install button, click the Accept button, the software checks for updates, and then I am back at the original download screen. I can't seem to get past this loop. Any suggestions?

If I go through the setup that you suggested, won't I screw up the existing software on my system?
No. The iTunes installer will first uninstall the existing version of iTunes and then put in the new one. (That's actually also what happens when you use Apple Software Update to install a new version ... it just doesn't show the uninstall phase like the iTunes64Setup.exe or iTunesSetup.exe does.)

Non functional shortcut in keynote 3 - problem to loop with QT slides

Hello there,
I'm using the shortcuts of Keynote a lot, and I'm embarrassed by the following strange behaviours :
1) in a slide that contains built-ins effects, none of the forseen shortcuts (P, Delete, Page Up, Left Arrow, Up Arrow, or Shift-Up Arrow) does really go back
to previous slide, all those shortcuts go back through each of the builds before to go back to previous slide. It is quite embarassing, when you want to go straight to the point. is there another shortcut to reall go back to previous slide, without stop ? thanks.
2) when I put a quicktime movie in the last slide of a slideshow that I force to loop, it takes ages for the slide show to go from last page to first page (I.e., to loop) : the quickitime movie seems frozen for 10-20 seconds, then the slideshow restarts, and every goes well... until the last slide, that freezes, and so on...
Thank you for any remark on this.

If you have Qt Pro, you can open the file and turn on a controller, then resave the file.

How I break while loop activity in BPEL process

Hi Guys,
I want to do a polling action in my bpel process, I put in the polling code in while activity ,
I try two way to do the break :
1. use the Flow activity , one sequence for while loop activity , one sequence for timeout flow , put waiting activity in it ,config timeout ... but Flow activity complete only when all branch complete . so it seems there is no way to break Flow from one branch.
2.use onalarm branch of scope ... put while activity code in a scope activity , create onalarm branch for this scope ,config the timeout time ... but onalarm branch can't bypass the scope sequence...
Any advice ?
Thanks
Kevin
Edited by: kyi on Oct 29, 2009 1:01 PM

The on-alarm branch of the scope should work.
Maybe not so neat but you could try to do a scope with a flow within that. Put in one of the flow-branches a wait. After the wait throw an exception.
You can catch that exception in a catch branch of the surrounding scope.

Martien

Breaking the loop...

hi and good day all.
how do i break the second loop and go to the first loop without doing the process in the first loop?

i want it to be this way:
if it stop during loop for(c), how do i make it go to for(a)without doing processA?
any ideas?
pls help

hi...
this is what i did:
               loop1:
               for (int l = 0 ; l < msgs.length;l++) {
               statusHeader= msgs[l].getHeader("Status");
                         if(! (statusHeader[0].equals("RO"))) {
                              String status="";
                              Vector temp1 = new Vector();
                              if(!temp.isEmpty()) {
                              loop2:{
                                   for( int m = 0 ; m <temp.size(); m++) {
                                        if (uid.getUID(msgs[l]).equals(temp.elementAt(m))){
                                             continue loop1;
but i get error:

Calculating Mileage & Breaking For Loop

Hey all,
I'm trying to create an application that calculates total mileage traveled and subtracts the initial mileage reading on the odometer. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Also, can you tell me how I can break the For loop by inputting a negative number or typing in "stop"? I pasted the code below. Thanks for your help!
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Lab4{
     public static void main(String args[]){
          int miles[] = new int[10];
          double gallons[] = new double [10];
          double mpg[] = new double [10];
          Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
          int count=0;
          double counter=0.0;
          for (int i = 0; i < 1; i++){
               System.out.println("What is the reading on the odometer?");
               miles[i] = kb.nextInt();
               if (i > 0)
                    count = count + miles;
          for (int i = 1; i < 9; i++){
               System.out.println("How many miles have you traveled since last filling up?");
               miles[i] = kb.nextInt();
               if (i > 0);
                    count = count + miles [i] - miles[0];
          System.out.print("You have traveled " + count);
          System.out.println(" miles");

I think you should go back two steps and learn the differences between objects, primitive types and arrays.

Loop in any Table of Record

Hi
Somebody know how can I to do a loop in Table in any table record ?
I want to build a Generic Procedure or function
tks

I did not understand
I wanted something like :
PROCEDURE Mount_RecA(p_RecA IN t_RecA, p_Str IN OUT VARCHAR2, p_StrAux IN OUT VARCHAR2) IS
   BEGIN
      FOR i IN p_RecA.FIRST..p_RecA.LAST LOOP
         IF p_RecA(i).Auxiliar THEN
            p_StrAux := p_StrAux || Mount_Str(p_RecA(i).Conteudo,i);
         ELSE
            p_Str := p_Str || p_RecA(i).Conteudo;
         END IF;
      END LOOP;
   END Mount_RecA;

Opening PDF in IE "breaking" for loop

Hi,
I have a dynamic PDF that is uploaded to a website. When the PDF opens, the user has to fill in certain fields before clicking the "Next" button. Upon clicking the Next button, I have a JavaScript function that sets certain fields access to required and then runs a for loop to check if any are empty. The next event is setting those fields access back to optional. Lastly, a popup window refers the user to the empty fields (fields are shaded red, but not their borders).
The problem occurs for one user who is using IE9 and has Reader X installed on his machine. It only occurs when he opens it directly with his browser, if he downloads it to his desktop first he encounters no problem. But using the browser makes filling in the fields on Page 1 glitchy, and then the loop doesn't work properly when he hits "Next". The event setting the fields back to optional doesn't seem to be firing, and the popup never comes up. So he's left with fields with red borders-which should not be happening.
Any idea what could be causing this bug only when accessing via browser? I can't replicate the problem on any of my browsers, even after disabling Adobe add-ons in IE.
Thanks for any suggestions!

Click box problem..loop to next slide without the command

Guys, I have a problem with my click boxes.
I'm using captivate 5.5.
details:
I have 4 click boxes
3 for hide and show objects
1 for go to next slide.
I have 2 slides only.
first slide has the changing view.
sample:
clickbox1 opens object 1 2 and 3 and triggers audio inside object 1 (working)
clickbox2 hides objects 1 2 and 3..shows 4 5 and 6 objects with audio also.
clickbox 3 goes the same process.
Problem: when I click clickbox2..it performs the action but maybe at around 1 second then proceed to the next slide. in which in the action, there was no command that say go to next slide or any.
the button for the next slide is on the 4 clickbox.
I'm using advance actions by the way.
I'm confused, this is my second time to do this..the first was working, what could be the problem?
Thanks

link sent thru PM.
I'm thinking if this is an inconsistency of CP.

To break during looping statement

I have customer master table.
Passing the customer from "form" to "Report" for printing Outstanding Invoice Statement.
my code at form :
LOOP
call report with parameter customer number;
next customer number;
END LOOP;
note:
customer number was pass to report one by one for each record.
If I have customer 500 record, is it posible to break / interupt in the middle?
let say escape key ?
Anybody can help ?
Thank

Hello,
Unfortunately not.
It is not possible to interrupt the execution of a pl/sql block, even by using a timer, because timers don't fire when the end user has not the focus.

Simple example - Break FOR loop inside an event structure based on Front panel event change.

I am running a for loop inside a state machine architecture that contains a FOR loop. How can I break this For loop based on Event change in front panel ??

Okay. Accpeting that the design is not favorable and not advantageous when my program expands. I have begin to follow producer/consumer programming architecture.
Please find the attached program which is a simple producer consumer with event structure. I wonder how could I stop looping around the producer and consumer loops over and over again. I am pretty sure that this ENQUEUE ELEMENT loops back to the consumer loop and starts from begining.
I hope my first program in PC architecture with State machine and Event structure is correct.
