Control presentation like powerpoint ones

Hello together,
I'm working with Captivate 5 for some days now, and the new features are quite impressive. So I'd like to realize my normal powerpoint presentations with Captivate 5. Is there a way, that a presentation behaves like a common powerpoint presentation?
I already disabeled the controlbar during runtime, that it looks like a common presentation.
Slides and other parts of the animation shouldn't proceede automatically, only by user-interaction, that I can click for example like, when I'm finished with talking about the current slide, or object of a slide.
Greetings,
TheCellarGuardian

Hello again
Note that you can save some time by working as follows:
1. Insert a Click Box programmed to Go To the Next Slide. Position as desired.
2. Copy the Click Box to the Windows Clipboard.
3. Select the remaining slides and paste.
Repeat the steps above for the Click Box that is programmed to Go To the Previous Slide.
Cheers... Rick

Keynote presentation like powerpoint

I recently built this great presentation in keynote. When I went to present it I got the mini-dvi to vga connector and hooked it up to the projector which worked fine. Running the presentation though none of my page transitions ran correctly and some of the other character transitions did not run correctly either. I specifically want to run keynote versus powerpoint because I didn't want any issues, yet I had them. Can anyone help me figure this out? Could it have been the projector?

I didn't know anything about mirrored or spanning. What I could see on the laptop I think was the same thing that was going showing in through the projector. I remember when I loaded the presentation up that it took a long time and when the presentation was over and I was shutting down, it asked me if I wanted to save the file. I didn't change anything so it shouldn't have asked me that. So something happened that shouldn't have.
I have not tried it again on another monitor yet. Just wanted to see if anyone else has had a problem like this.
PS- sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

A control panel like the one on the MoviePlayer - iPhone

Does anyone have an idea/or example on how to create a control panel on iPhone ( with backward,stop,forward buttons) similar to the one the moviePlayer uses?
Thanks

You mean the one with the green icon with a white chat bubble? If so, that is the messaging app for SMS or MMS. It doesn't exist on the iPad as the iPad is not a phone and therefore does not have SMS/MMS capability (though there are apps you can use to fake it).

Using Excel with Visual C++ 6.0 (need a graph control that behaves as much like the one in CVI as possible)

I hate to beat this to death but I was unable to find a
clear answer to this question. Does NI provide Excel control from within
Visual C++ 6.0?
I read that NI supports the ANSI-C library only for Visual C++ 6.0 users:
Thread : "Re: Benifits of using measurment
studio for VC++ 6.0?"
NI REP : drohacek
Quote : "we made the decision to support Visual
C++ 6.0 users only through the ANSI-C interface and not through the Measurement
Studio MFC-based class libraries."
If there is a suggested way of controlling Excel from within Measurement Studio
for Visual C++ 6.0 then I’d love to know it.
If not, can a plain statement be made basically stating that if you want
to control Excel you can’t use a Visual C++ 6.0 environment even with Measurement
Studio support?
With .NET of course you can just decide to have Excel support added during
project creation. CVI can act as an ActiveX server and easily control
Excel just by building off the examples shipped with CVI. I see that
there is support, using the Measurement Studio for Visual C++ 6.0 Project Wizard,
for taking existing CVI projects and converting them to Visual C++ 6.0 projects
or for calling CVI libraries from a .dll from within Visual C++ 6.0. I suppose I could do the work
in CVI and then convert the project but I'm so deeply tied into all my MFC calls that I don't see
how I can cleanly include the CVI libraries into my existing VC++ 6.0 projects.
What I'm really after here is a visual graph control like the one in CVI that I
can use from Visual C++ 6.0. I purchased a 3rd party graph control for use
in VC++ 6.0 that works well but isn't really visual. I mean you can't
enter any values in it until you run the program and fill it out programmatically.
Then you can see which columns are two narrow, quit the program, adjust the
column width of your now empty control, and repeat, until you get the thing
looking the way you want. If I could call into Excel from within Visual
C++ 6.0 the way I do from within .NET
then I could use Excel to hold the table and just read in the values into my table
control at run time. Basically I'd use Excel as a visual development tool
for all my tables.
I do all my coding from within CVI and Measurement Studio for Visual C++
6.0. I'd use CVI for everything if I didn't depend so heavily on certain
outside controlled C++ .dll's. Could you please suggest then what I can
do to get Excel support for Visual C++ 6.0?
Last question :
Is there any plan to ever have a NI table control like the CVI table control for
use in Visual Studio? One that you can
completely set up before you do any compiling?
I imagine that the way Microsoft sets up their environment makes this idea impossible. Otherwise someone would
have come up with a truly “visual” table control before now.

Hello Grant
You can most certainly use Excel with VC++ 6.0. Measurement Studio won't provided you with any classes to talk to Excel in VC++ 6.0. This is because Excel allows control via Automation and you can use its automation API to do anything you need with Excel. This is what CVI uses as well.
You can see this MSDN article on how to set this up. This mentions VC.NET, but it should work the same way.
Here is one that talks about VC 6.0 and Excel.
Here is a code project article about this.
Even with .NET, you have to do thru the Excel Automation support. Excel started shipping with Primary Interop Assemblies (PIA) which are .NET wrappers about the Excel Automation object model. C++ Automation is definetely not as nice as .NET, BTW
See this document for more information about the Excel object model.
I would not recommend using the CVI Excel libraries if all you want to use them for is Excel automation. You will end up creating un-necessary dependencies and go through extra layers that way. You can make calls straight to Excel from VC++ without requiring CVI.
One quick observation about your excel approach. If you decide to use Excel as your table, you might be requiring everyone who uses your application to have Excel installed on their machines. Just wanted to make sure this was acceptable to you.
Have you looked at the Datagrid Activex control, which is one of the common controls that ships with Visual Studio? You can add it to Visual Studio by right-clicking and picking it from the list of installed activex control. If you have not already, you should check it out.
Microsoft has made significant improvements in the number of controls they provide with .NET. They have a Datagrid control that seems to be what you need.
Measurement Studio did add some high level classes for Excel and Word Automation that simplify some common tasks, but these exists for VS 2003 C++ and VS 2005 C++, not for VC 6.0. Underneath, we end up using the same Excel automation classes, so you can easily setup something similar for VC 6.0. Plus you can find alot of references online on how to use the Excel Automation object model with C++.
We currently have no plans in Measurement Studio to create a table control unfortunately. I am assuming when you said graph, you actually meant table, since Measurement Studio already provides a ActiveX graph controls for VC++ 6.0 that is very similar to the CVI graph.
On a side note, VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?
To summarize
- Yes, you can use Excel with Vc++ 6.0 without mstudio.
- Try using the Datagrid Activex control if you just need a table.
- Measurement Studio provides high-level excel and word classes for VC++ 6.0
- Measurement Studio provides a graph control for VC++ 6.0 which is very similar to the CVI graph.
- Measuremnt Studio does not have a table control.
- VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?

So far so good. But then, how do you return to the viewing mode while preserving the corrected photos. There is no way out such as a button " done " like the one present in mi iMac.

In my ipad, looking at photos with red eyes I enter edit mode, red eye tool, correct and then what? How do I return to the viewing mode while preserving the corrected photos. There is no way out such as a button " done " like the one present in my iMac. Any solution ?

Make Captivate behave more like Powerpoint?

Hey all,
I'm working on a project where we want to use Captivate as our platform (so it's HTML-friendly and responsive), but we'd like for it to behave more like Powerpoint. The two main features we'd like to have are:
Allow for a mouse-click anywhere on the screen and/or keyboard shortcut to advance the presentation, rather than having to click a specific button to continue
Allow for there to be objects that appear in succession on the same slide. If there's a square, a circle, and a triangle on a slide, what's the best process for having them fade in one at a time? It seems like click boxes and pausing might be the way that we have to do this, but I'm hoping there's an easier alternative. (or one that makes more sense to me)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

You need only a click box if you want to control the appearance of the next object by a click. If they can appear automatically after each other (in sequence, is also possible in PPT) you don't need click boxes. Here is a pretty complicated example, where I needed clicks for a presentation on an Adobe Summit:
You see 4 click boxes, which I put on top of each other on a specific location of the slide, which is possible because they are staggered, not active at the same moment. They have the action 'Continue'. I didn't put them over the whole slide, because there was also a shape button functioning as Next button that is not visible here because it is on the first slide, timed for the rest of the project.

App remotely control presentation from iPhone

Hi,
I'm trying to build a simple app similar to the "Remote" app. Basically, it can connect via WiFi to a Mac and controls the presentation (MS Powerpoint 2008) on it, like going to the next or the previous slide. Also, there would be a "server" running on the Mac that can talk to the iPhone app, which acts as client. Can anyone give me some pointers on how the client and server may be built? Thanks in advance.

Very informational. I'm trying to implement a simple version of iClickr, namely go to the next or previous slide only. Can you give me some further suggestion, or even sample code, on how this implementation can be achieved?

How to dynamically load data from DB in an HTML control present in jsp

Hi Friends,
Can anyone help me with this problem:
I am working on a portal application. My requirement is to dynamically load data in an HTML control present in my JSPs. The controls are combo-boxes, text-fields, list-boxes etc. . Also, the events to load the data are like On Form load, On selecting a value from the combo-box, on clicking on a text-field etc.
If any one can help me with a code snippet, than that would be highly appreciable. If not then the approach to achieve this will also be helpful.
Thanks and Regards,
Gaive.

Does Keynote have an equivalent 'viewer' like Powerpoint viewer?

Does Keynote have an equivalent 'viewer' like Powerpoint viewer? How can I share my Keynote files with other non-Keynote folks?

As of July 31, 2012, you will no longer be able to access your documents on the iWork.com site or view them on the web.
Now use iCloud instead: http://www.apple.com/icloud/
However, you must have an Apple device to create an iCloud account so Windows only users need to get to one before accessing your files.
About iCloud Control Panel for Windows v1.1
The iCloud Control Panel is required to use Photo Stream, Mail, Contacts and Calendars (Microsoft Outlook 2007 or later required) and Bookmarks (Safari 5.1.1 or Internet Explorer 8 or later required).
Note: To create an iCloud account you need an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with iOS 5, or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.2 or later.
System Requirements
Microsoft Windows Windows Vista SP2 or Windows 7
Safari 5.1.1 or Internet Explorer 8 or later
Microsoft Outlook 2007 or 2010 recommended

Just bought Photoshop Elements 13...I'm trying to make a slideshow but can't figure out how to alter duration time that the slide is on the screen. They presently move from one to another way too quickly...also need a different pan and zoom option. Wher

Just bought Photoshop Elements 13...I'm trying to make a slideshow but can't figure out how to alter duration time that the slide is on the screen. They presently move from one to another way too quickly...also need a different pan and zoom option. Where are all the options I had in PS10? Also...Can I burn this to a DVD?

The changes have brought improvements but also drawbacks compared with the old slideshow editor.
The templates are now fairly fixed but I find the “Classic Dark” gives reasonable results with some panning and you can click the audio button and browse you PC for any track. Unfortunately there are only three speed choices linked to the music track. The improvement for most people is that you can now export to your hard drive at 720p or 1080p and upload to sites like YouTube and Vimeo.

Pages Viewer, like PowerPoint Viewer

I'd like to be able to create a presentation with Pages and save it to CD.
Is there a Windows based Pages Viewer, like PowerPoint Viewer, that I could add to the CD to view the presentation on a Windows machine?
Thanks.
G4 PowerBook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Hello TomMoran,
why don't you use Keynote for the presentation, because it is made for that purpose?
You can export a Pages document to PDF and that Windows user can watch with the Acrobat Reader. Pages documents can only be read with Pages on Macs. With Keynote you can export simple presentations to Powerpoint files so Windows user can watch the presentation as that. And more general you can export a Keynote file to a (clickable = interactive) QuickTime movie, so all can watch it, because the QuickTime player is free for Mac and for Windows.

Present lists in one page

Hi
I have a customer that handles service on machines. They have 3 lists per customer and have over 120 customers.
I would like to present thoose on one page, I tried content search but I didn´t get it to work. It presented everyting in ther lists. (Every object).
Does anyone have any idea on how I can solve this?
//Robert

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to present lists in one page.
I recommend that you can use Content Query Web Part.
You need to edit the web part as below:

Hi Guys,
Right now I think that the control cl_wfd_html_text_viewer would do the job, but I need first documentation or examples in order to learn how to build tables or add input fields in HTML.
Any suggestion?
