Collapsible Menu using "Display Cover.swf"

I want to create a menu that will collapse and expand from the side of the Xcelsius model. I've been trying to figure this out using the "Display Cover (white).swf", flash file that comes with Xcelsius, but that is apparently not the way to go. Does anyone know how I can make the described menu in Xcelsius?

That particular file is an art remnant left over from older versions of Xcelsius. It was created in another program, not Xcelsius. Xcelsius components cannot slide back and forth like this. However, you can create a similar effect with a menu by doing the following:
1) Insert desired Menu component
2) Insert a button or icon component
3) Button: Labels = Show/Hide; Source Data: Off = 0, On = 1; Insert In: A1; Behavior - Default = On;
4) Menu: Behavior: DV: Display Status = A1; Key = 1; Entry Effect = Grow X First; Duration = 0.5
*Clicking the button on or off will determine if the menu is shown or hidden.
This will slide the menu out, but the menu will blink off. You could get more sophisticated with two icons (with or without image components for customization) set to show or hide based on whether the menu is shown or hidden. This should at least get you headed in the right direction.

Collapsible menu displaying within a slide?

Hello,
I was wondering if it was at all possible to place a collapsible menu on a slide. Rather than displaying a TOC that is currently available in captivate - see screen capture below.
Thankyou kindly
ali

Captvate has no native functionality to achieve this. You could use the Hyperlink Widget to set up interactive clickable text that can trigger Advanced Actions to jump to another slide or project when clicked. However, be warned that jumping to another project is not a good idea if your course is delivered from a SCORM compliant LMS as this action usually violates the rules around how the SCORM API wants to work.
Feel free to log a feature request if you think this idea might be worth developing in a future version of Captivate: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&product=5

Incorrect menu being displayed after several forms are called and closed

Have been searching and agonizing for a few hours and still can't find the reason for this.
Forms v9i web version
The starting form (main_form) has a custom menu (cus_menu) and this is displayed when the user begins the application. Form B can be called in two different ways:
1) Directly from the main_form menu, here is the code: call_form('FORM_B',HIDE,DO_REPLACE);2) Via a button from another form, Form C which is called from the menu in the same way as Form B was. Code for the button is same as above.
The menu attached to Form B is another custom menu (b_cus_menu).
The problem occurs when Form B is called via the second method.
Here are the steps,
1) From main_form, Form C is called from the menu (cus_menu)
2) Button is pressed that calls Form B (call_form('FORM_B',HIDE,DO_REPLACE);).
3) Menu correctly changes to b_cus_menu
4) Form B is closed and now Form C is visible. Menu correctly reverts to the menu set for form C.
5) Form C is closed and main_form is now visible. Menu incorrectly reverts to the menu used in form B (b_cus_menu) instead of cus_menu.

Problem seems to only occur when Form B has the same window name as the main form. Strange...

Creating a vertical dropdown menu that displays inline

I would like to change how my dropdown menu displays. First I'd like for it to dropdown directly underneath its menu item and in the process move the other links down. And remain visible until it is clicked again, thereby shifting other links back up.
Here is what I am trying to accomplish:
Main menu:
main link 1
main link 2
main link 3
main link 4
Then when user clicks on a link:
main link 1
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
main link 2
main link 3
main link 4
And for it to remain displayed like the above until clicked again.
So in essence it could even look like this as a user is navigating:
main link 1
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
main link 2
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
main link 3
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
main link 4
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
And then each submenu disappear as its main link is clicked again.
Hope this makes sense and hope someone can help.
Thanks!
P.S. Im using Dreamweaver CS6

How can I get rid of the blue border in Spry collapsible menu

How can I get rid of the blue border that displays in Safari when I click on the Spry collapsible menu? Also want to get rid of dotted border that displays in Firefox. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Thanks!

Here are my System Specs
Dell Latitude E6500
Windows XP Pro Service Pack 3. 32 bit

The buttons seem to work fine, they just look all grayed out when they can't be selected.
Thanks for your help.

Subject: Menu Icons Display Strange
Hi again
Hmmm, new install. Aside from the funky icons does it seem to function?
What is your operating system? Vista, Windows 7, Windows XP and how many bits? 32 or 64.
Note that Adobe has no version of Captivate that has been blessed and purported to run flawlessly on 64 bit systems. We are seeing more and more folks arrive here that are using 64 bit systems and citing all manner of issues. Mostly surrounding capture and audio.
Cheers... Rick

Menu parameter, display text and filter by ID

Is it possible with a parameter of type menu to display the text that has meaning to the user
But when filtering in my query send the ID's of the items the user selected in the menu?
For example I have a catalog with 50 reason descriptions in my DB, every reason description has an ID
So I display the 50 reason descriptions so that the user selects whatever he wants
When he runs the report how can I get the ID's of the reason descriptions he selected?
Thanks and Regards

for All option:
select description, id from table
union all
select "All", -999 from dual
in the query SQL:
where
colum1 = decode(:parameter1,-999,colum1,:parameter1)
for Multiple selection:
colum1 in (decode(:parameter1,-999,colum1,:parameter1) )
example to create a report:
1.create a list:
select rownum || '-' || t.tname tname, rownum tnum from tab t
union all
select 'All' tname, -999 tnum from dual
order by tnum
2. create a parameter using above list
3. create a data model with following sql:
select rownum || '-' || t.tname tname, rownum tnum from tab t
where rownum in ( decode(:PM_doc_id,-999,rownum,:PM_doc_id))
4. generate the layout
5.view this report to verify it.

Call and display Xcelsius SWF file from an SAP Transaction

Hello Experts ,
Could you please suggest if it is possible to Call and display Xcelsius SWF file
from an SAP Transaction and if Yes how can this be achieved.
Regards ,
Jerin.

Jerin,
It is possible to embed a Xcelsius model into an SAP WebTemplate (Anil promised to write a blog about this very soon). After that you can include the WebTemplate in the GUI menu, Role menu or Portal.

Flash menu screen and related .swf "blank"?

Unable to always obtain Flash menu screen (and related .swf file). This is really odd! On some rare occassions it is possible to successfully create flash output but most times not. As the number of successes are rare, I can't analyse & determine what is going on (output to DVD & Blu-ray is fine but can't get flash)??

That sounds a little severe. Have you made any changes at all to your Mac - changed graphics cards or anything? Also, do you use a font management app like suitcase? If you do, have you turned off any of the fonts DVDSP uses as part of the system? I know it sounds odd, but this has caused all kinds of issues for people in the past and the only resolution was to turn on the system fonts again.
Have you run a hardware test (using the Apple hardware check disc that your mac came with)? I am no expert on any of this stuff, but check your graphics card... I had one with bad memory and many, many glitches started to appear which just got worse over time. Changed the graphics card and all was fine.

Is there any way to edit the standard Firefox context menu for displayed Web pages?

Is there any way to edit the standard Firefox context menu for displayed Web pages? I frequently want to save a picture appearing on a page. Sometimes I "slip" and hit "Send Image" when I want "Save Image As", and have to sit and wait for a default send-mail page to come up, then close it, fiddling with its "are you sure" dialogs. This is a painful way to handle a slip-up. I basically NEVER want to e-mail an element directly from a page. Is there any way I can just delete "Send Image" from the context menu?

You can remove entries in the context menu with code in the userChrome.css file
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/userChrome.css
Some IDs are listed in this MozillaZine Knowledge Base article:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Chrome_element_names_and_IDs
To find the ID of others you will have to use the DOM Inspector.

Can't get a Google Site navigation menu to display on Safari

I can't get my Google Site navigation menu to display on Safari (iPad or iPhone)? Navigation menu is off the page...tapping the screen opens the sidebar but then it instantly closes automatically.
I looked in Google Sites Admin for a mobile device compatibility setting, but didn't find one. Also looked in my Safari settings on my own iPhone/iPad devices and nothing I do allows the Google Site navigation to work. This makes my Google Site unusable by iPad and iPhone users.
Help...?

Are you using Safari? Have you tried an alternative browser - Chrome, Firefox?
Edit: What's the website - maybe it's down.

Drop Down Menu Using CSS Only

Apex 3.2
I have created a drop down menu for my application by following this blog
http://www.grassroots-oracle.com/2013/05/css-pull-down-menu-using-apex-list.html
It works perfectly if my list has only one level, but I can't get it working for sub items.
If I add a sub item to my list, then the whole menu displays incorrectly.
Has anybody used this blog before
I would post on the blog, but it requires a google acount, which I am not allowed to create
Gus

Hi Gus,
Have you read the comment from ino?
Thanks Scott, very useful.
One update: this works if there are no sub menus. For the same reason as you described about the <ul> bug, you can change the Sublist with sublist items to
<li><a href="#LINK#" class="dir">#TEXT#</a><ul>
(extra <ul> at the end). Took me a while to figure out why my sub menus were not showing properly, until I read your comment in the "Sublist template before rows" section.
It looks to me that this would solve your problem.

Kees Vlek

Display external SWF via XML

Hello gang - I don't do much much in the way of AS, and this
is my first real foray into XML and dynamic data in regards to
Flash. I followed this guide successfully:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/xmldataflash.htm
Using that technique, I'm able to get text to display as I
wish. The XML text is displayed using a dynamic text field - but
I'm at a loss for how to display the swf?
Here's my AS:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.name =
this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
_root.swf =
this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
panel1_txt.text = _root.name;
swf01.text = _root.swf;
} else {
trace("file not loaded!");;
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("panels.xml");
And here's my XML:
f<?xml version="1.0"?>
<box>
<panel>
<name>superchange your web presense</name>
<swf>
http://www.core3solutions.com/panels/panel_1.swf</swf>
</panel>
</box>
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

You probably need to contact the designer of the component to see why it behaves that way if the documentation that came with it doesn't explain why that might happen. If the swf you are loading happens to load other files dynamically, that could also be a source of a problem (the file failing due to not being able to load something). Based on what you showed, I doubt the xml has anything to do with it the problem you're having.
