Clickable button in Keynote?

Hi, I'm wondering if I can create a clickable button in keynote that would then trigger a build-in effect such as dissolve. Is such a thing possible?

draw a shape and ensure it is selected
in the Inspector > hyperlink > enable as hyperlink > click slide button and enter the slide number
place the object in slide 2 and create a dissolve to automatically build on entry for the object

If you want it to be similar to the one you link then use the images in the grid like in the one you linked.

No icloud button in Keynote on iMac

Hi,
I have enabled Documents & Data in the iCloud preferences on my iMac.
When i try to open an existing document in Keynote (or in Pages, and Numbers), i can't see any button to open from iCloud.
The documents appear on the web version on iCloud, but aren't i supposed to be able to open it directly from iCloud?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
That possibility is only available if you are using OS X Mountain Lion, and you are using OS X Lion. If you want to upgrade to Mountain Lion, open App Store and purchase OS X Mountain Lion. Don't forget to make a backup before upgrading.
After upgrading to OS X Mountain Lion, all your iWork applications will show up the iCloud window when you open them, and they will save your documents by default on iCloud.
If you want to stay with OS X Lion, you have to access to your Numbers, Keynote and Pages documents on http://www.icloud.com, logging in with your Apple ID and selecting "iWork". Then, drag your iWork documents here depending of the app you used to create them (Numbers, Pages, Keynote)

Switch screen button in keynote 6.0

I had my first presentation today with Keynote 6.0. Everything was fine except at the conclusion I wanted to find out how to get to the other slides. I was checking the buttons at the top right and pushed what I now realize is "switch screen." Now what I should see on my computer (presenter view with slides) is what they see on the screen. I've looked everwhere and I can't find a 'switch screen'so that I can reverse it and when I'm in presenter mode, there's no way to find that. Any help would be much appreciated!

Thank you so much. I didn't know that shortcut and it fixed it right away. I was surprised that when I went back to the section that all of those slide were only a small portion of the page. It's almost like the white part of the slide got bigger so the actual slide information shrunk. Obviously I hit something in my frustration that changed the slide size, but luckily it will be easy to replace. Great response to my question and much appreciated!

I noticed in Firefox that my cursor doesn't change to let me know a button is clickable (button mode) in flash sites, why?

I noticed that in the new version of Firefox that my cursor doesn't indicate when a button, in flash, is clickable. In other browsers, the cursor changes from the standard arrow to the hand with a finger.

Mouseover Button in Keynote 09

Is there any way to create a rollover button to hyperlink to another presentation? In other words, when you place the mouse over the button, the button changes it appearance.

Welcome to the forums!
Keynote doesn't support rollover animations or other similar changes.

Clickable button in jtable header

Here is a modification of camickr code to make buttons clickable in the jtable cells. The question is how to modify it to make them clickable in the table headers. It looks like there is quite a different behavior in cells and headers (naturally it probably should be this way). More specifically, I guess my question is how do you modify MyColHeaderRenderer class in the code below. Btw, this is also an example I've mentioned in one of the previous posts when a component responds to a press mouse event but not click event when first pressed.

Clickable buttons within mc

Hello,
I'm working on a project and am having difficulty with a mc inside my swf. The movie clip is stopped at frame 1, showing only a small box with arrows in the top left corner of my swf. When MOUSE_OVER this box the mc plays and stops at frame(25). The mc (moveOut) has a motion tween where a larger box slides onto the stage, embedded are two buttons (toEur & toNeth) that will lead the user back to a different swf. The mc works fine, however if you mouse over either of the buttons it jitters or just goes to frame(1) and stops.
I think what is happening is that mousing over the buttons is considered mousing out of the mc. How can I make it that the mc plays as normal no matter if mouse_over the butons or not, but still make the buttons clickable? My code is below:
import flash.events.MouseEvent; stop(); moveOut.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, playmc); moveOut.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, stopmc); function playmc(e:MouseEvent) :void { play(); } function stopmc(e:MouseEvent) :void { gotoAndStop(1); }
I also tried to add this code, attempting to make the MOUSE_OVER on buttons just go to frame(25), better then the jitter thing.
toEur.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, endmc); toNeth.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, endmc); function endmc(e:MouseEvent) :void { gotoAndStop(25); }
I have yet to make the CLICK code for each button, this will involve unloading children swf's, which is another story!!!
Thanks in advance if anyone can help me!

I'm completely new to all of this, I didn't quite understand all of the commentJust keep on going, reflect on your experience and experiment again!
When I just started, I was unable to read AS3 Developers' Guide without howling at the Moon...
A couple of words in addition to what Ned said.
So as to set up a communication between your parent object and a child, which is loaded SWF, you DON'T need to use anything like LocalConnection.
You need to just load your external SWF and then 'talk' to Objects in it through referencing via dot (look at my sample code above (or below - it's closer...)).
I encountered some issues with using Loader class, but replacement with ProLoader fixed all.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import fl.display.ProLoader;
var CPLoader:ProLoader = new ProLoader();
var ControlPanel:MovieClip;
addChild(CPLoader);
CPLoader.load(new URLRequest("ControlPanel.1920.swf"));
Loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, controlPanel_initialiser);
function controlPanel_initialiser(event:Event):void
ControlPanel = event.target.content;
ControlPanel.Power_BTN.ButtonArea.buttonMode = true;
ControlPanel.Play_BTN.ButtonArea.buttonMode = true;
ControlPanel.Pause_BTN.ButtonArea.buttonMode = true;
ControlPanel.Power_BTN.ButtonArea.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, currentSwitchClick_handler);
ControlPanel.Play_BTN.ButtonArea.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, currentSwitchClick_handler);
ControlPanel.Pause_BTN.ButtonArea.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, currentSwitchClick_handler);

How do i make a clickable "button" that works in the PDF?

I have a newsletter and want to make a button on a page that when clicked, will open the browser and go to that site. I see how to convert objects to a button and enter the URL in its properties but when I convert to a PDF, the entire object is missing. When converting to PDF, I also make sure that hyperlinks and interactive elements are both checked in the General section. I dont know what else I need to do!

It is a colored square that was also grouped with a text box. I tried also ungrouping it and just putting the button effect on one or the other and had the same problem. When i look at the PDF, it has nothing there, whatever object i have the button effect applied to is totally deleted. I even tried clicking on the area where it was thinking maybe something was invisible and that didnt do anything either. There are no left over or hidden boxes there that could be covering things either. Im good about working cleanly and organized.
Ill try doing this with a new document tomorrow and see what happens

I need help creating a list of vertical clickable buttons in an aside

OK so here is the setup for this site I am working on. http://www.bestmarketingnames.com/default2.php I need to change that list on the left side into real buttons with destination when you click them. Here is a link that i have been tinkering with. http://www.bestmarketingnames.com/default.php I need them to fit in the left aside and vertical. I can't make them vertical. I'm sure it's a fairly simple thing but I don't know how to do it.
Thanks

Clickable Button in PDF File

Sorry for the duplicate post, but I'm not sure which forum to
ask this is...
I have some old PDF files that have buttons on them that,
when clicked hide, and show when the mouse is released. These are
for bank of questions I use for my business. I am trying to figure
out how they were created. Basically it is a button that is visible
and hides the answer. When clicked it hides, showing the answer.
When the mouse is released, the button shows up again, hiding the
answer.
Not sure what software was used to do this. Any ideas? Sorry
if I am in the wrong area, but I have spent a lot of time in the
Microsoft NewsGroups before but never here.
I would be happy to send anyone a sample file to show what I
would like to do. Reason I need this is because these files are
updated every six months and I need to recreate this feature.
TIA!
Bill
