CP6 - too many smart shapes / levels on one page?

Hi all,
While creating a new project in Captivate 6, I used smart shapes as buttons with advanced interactions to show and hide product features. These product features in itself can have subsets of information that I want to show when the user asks for them.
So on the second level, I again used smart shapes for that information (e.g. a list of three). I grouped them to avoid too lengthy an advanced interaction. Upon publication, however, and rather peculiarly, the first smart shape in the list did not work. I checked and rechecked (and then checked again ) all interactions and they were correct. Moreover, when I switched the first and second item in the list (i.e. physically moved them on the page), the problem did not move along: it remained with the (now new) first item in the list. Which means that it is not a mistake in the advanced interactions.
I have tried to find a solution for this, but eventually had to revert to using separate slides for the separate features and then the smart shapes worked fine (without changing the logic behind them).
Has anyone else encountered this, or am I doing so onviously something wrong that I've failed to notice? It looks like Captivate stumbles on the number of levels on one slide?
Thanks.
Jan.
PS: I'm new to this forum, so if this question has been asked (and answered) before, I apologise. I couldn't find it.

Hi,
thanks for the treply. Unfortunately (and carelessly) I chucked the .cptx that didn't work and stuck with the workaround. So I can't remember exactly how many levels (guessing three levels of smart shapes on top of each other.
Elsewhere on this forum, we found that if two buttons are on top of each other (invisible or not) could interfere with each other. My guess is the same happened with the first smart shape in ly list, that it got interfered with by an invisible button.
In the end, the customer found the non-linear navigation too complicated so we had to go for a linear slide per slide approach anyway.
Jan.

  • [database design]  the "too many" number of users of one instance!!

    Good morning everyone!!
    I have a question about the number of users of one db
    instance, "possible problems" caused by too many users,
    and "pros and cons" of this case.
    Now, the company I work for is considering centralizing
    150 db servers of 150 sites. 150 chained-stores have
    their own db instance.
    Here is the structure of db instance after the
    centralization.
    1. Centralized instance has each user per site(150
    sites), for example, site001, site002, …site00n, …
    site150
    2. Each user has its own 250 tables, thus the db
    instance become to have 150 users and 150*250 tables.
    3. Each user has almost the same table schema, not
    exactly. There are a little bit of differences among
    the business rules of each sites.
    4. the version of centralized db instance is "oracle9i".
    Theoretically, it seems like there is no problem, but I
    have not experienced the db instance like this, which
    has "too many" users of 150 users.
    In terms of every aspect such as "performance/tuning",
    "system management", or "something else", I would like
    to hear what could be "the pros and cons" of this
    structure.
    Assuming that there are possible critical problems caused
    by too many users, what could be the alternative choice?
    I will be waiting to hear your experience. Every response
    will be appreciated, even if it is not about what I asked.
    Thanks for your interest in advance.
    Have a nice day.

  • Too many redirects - Safari can't open page - Domainmonster to iWeb problem

    I am trying to publish my website made with iWeb - I purchased a domain from Domainmonster.
    onlineiwthme.net - and by looking around the web I think I have done the whole CNAME thing correctly.
    When I go to my mobile me account summary it says - Personal Domain = www.onlinewithme.net
    So I think it should be OK.
    I clicked publish in iWeb and it seemed to work but when I try my domain I just get the following message: Safari can’t open the page.
    Too many redirects occurred trying to open “http://www.onlinewithme.net/”. This might occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page which then is redirected to open the original page.

    OK I still could net get it sorted so I contacted Domainmonsters help desk and below is the nice clear answer to my problems.
    I add it here in case anybody else has problems.
    Ethiod, thank you very much for you help, regardless, much appreciated that you at least tried to help.
    Thank you for contacting Domainmonster.com.
    1. Log in to your Domainmonster.com account and choose to manage your domain by highlighting it on the right hand menu and clicking “Manage”.
    2. Choose “Website Content” then click “Web Forwarding”.
    3. Within Web Forwarding set-up non-framed web forwarding to point to www.onlinewithme.net – this will forward the root record (non www.) to the www. address – meaning that either http://onlinewithme.net or http://www.onlinewithme.net will go to the correct location.
    4. Once saved, click on the “ > onlinewithme.net Control Panel” breadcrumb at the top of the page to take you back to your control panel.
    5. Click on “Manage DNS”.
    6. Within DNS settings delete the A Record for www. (check box to the right hand side and then click “save DNS Updates”)
    a. Now add a CNAME Record with the following settings:
    i. Alias: www
    ii. Address: web.me.com
    7. You will now have pointed your www. record to your web.me.com account.
    8. You will need to ensure that your iWeb account is correctly set-up to expect your domain. You can do this by specifying a Personal Domain (www.onlinewithme.net). Apple have provided a tutorial here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1107

  • V570 - Has too many partitions - Can I nuke one? I need a separate Data Partition!

    Hi,
    I convinced a Buddy to buy a V570 two days ago. (I've used a Lenovo Laptop for work for a year, and it's been rock solid.) The box was delivered to his house a few hours ago. He lit it up and put his name on it, and then brought it to me, as I help his family out with their computers. (Our Wives are best friends.) I'm a bit geeky and usually know my way around these boxes. But I'm a little stumped on this one.
    Normally on laptops they come with tons of bloatware, and it's usually faster to go up to the OEM's site, download all the latest drivers and  utilities, then back up the original image before blowing it away, and installing a fresh Windows OS. One of the other main issues is most lappys have one big partition for the OS and Data. So if you get a Trojan or virus => it can nuke all of it. So I always divide the drive, and have a Data partition, so you don't lose everything if (when) something nasty occurs. 
     But in this case the Box really doesn't have too much bloatware, so I thought make the Factory backup disks, then uninstall the few unwanted programs, partition the C Drive, and create a Data drive in that space. I didn't even look at the hidden partitions so when I went to Create the Data partition I was warned Windows 7 64 Pro doesn't support more than 4 partitions on the operating system drive! If I go into Disk Management I see the typical small Win7 recovery 200 MB partition, a 654 GB C  partition, a empty (?) 29 Gig Lenovo partition, and a 14.75 OEM partition. I'm used to the first 2 partitions but what's the rational for the last two from lenovo? One is the "factory" image, and I assume it's the OEM partition, so what's the Lenovo partition for? Can I shrink C, and enlarge the Lenovo partition, so it can become the Data Drive =>  without affecting the lenovo drives function?
    I thought I may have to go with the new Windows install but I can find all the drivers /utilities software at the Lenovo Sites. So I'm a bit stumped and would appreciate your help.
    Thanks for the assist.
    Regards,
    -Jim-

    Jim,
         In one word, no.
         I would strongly advise you to just leave it alone, unless you want to spend hours on the phone to your friend, trying to fix all the problems your friend will encounter, with his "new" modded system.
         Please, I'm not trying to be nasty, or unkind. Those 4 partitions are the key to Lenovo's One Key Recovery. Lenovo has spent a lot of time, and engineering to make their systems as user friendly, and trouble free as possible. They built in the Enhanced Experience 2.0, and customized the Windows 7 software for fast booting. Just because you "can"  repartition the drive, doesn't mean you "should".
         These forums are filled with users who messed around with their drive structure, used a modded BIOS, or just plain screwed up their programs and hardware, just because they "could". Then they want some urgent help for their machines that went wacky. The moderators on these sites have a hard enough job, keeping track of the various systems "as shipped", to do any troubleshooting on those systems that the user has repositioned the drive, or deleted the programs that Lenovo has included for recovery.
         As you've said, there's not a lot of bloatware on Lenovo's machines. You shouldn't have to reload a "fresh Window OS". If you do, some of the Lenovo's Enhanced Experience 2.0 for Win 7, and some other functions will be toast. That's why you don't see all of the Windows drivers on their site. Lenovo only includes the drivers that have been modified for your V570. Stick with them.
         So, in the end, yeah you can mess with the partitions, but you shouldn't. See this thread to know what you are getting in to, and be ready for your friend's late night phone calls.

  • Too many apps in launchpad? One solution.....

    I had a lot of apps in my Applications folder, mainly due to my Parallels Windows installs.
    I fired up Launchpad after installing and I had over 10 screens of applications. Not very productive.
    To counter that problem, I move applications out of my Applications folder into self defined folders out of the original folder.
    I then used this tip to reload the Launchpad database and restart the Dock to soidify the changes:
    http://haiteq.com/2011/07/07/quick-tip-force-os-x-lion-to-reload-the-launchpads- contents/
    It worked for all of my Parallels Windows Applications that Launchpad found. I move them to another folder..way out of the Applications folder.
    It worked! Only 4 screens of Mac apps!
    I hope it helps people out.
    Enjoy Lion OS X!

    My greatest hope for Lion was Launchpad, and I'm utterly disappointed. It's a mess.
    It should not be necssary to rejigger the Applications folder just so Launchpad isn't a collossal jumble. The idea that one should drag and drop an icon over 6 screens is ridiculous.
    Only about 5 or 6 icons out of many dozens display the "x" that Apple Help says to click to remove the icon from Launchpad. Multiple copies of the same application icon appear in Launchpad, even though only one copy exists on the Mac drive. Application aliases appear in Launchpad with no way to delete them except to locate them on the hard drive.
    And that is just in the first 10 mins. of stunned disillusionment.
    It all makes me yearn for an old OS which didn't have wiggling icons but did allow the Applications folder to be organized with folders and displayed in the Finder as simply text.
    Launchpad is a tacit admission that the Dock is inadequate (and was from Day One), but Launchpad is even worse.

  • Too many problems to list in one thread title

    Nice one on the update looking prettier I guess but: It's really slow. Like, REALLY slow. As in takes about twenty seconds to shuffle slow. (it cost me 10% battery to get a decent queue going earlier)Constant freezingLike, if I have my phone on hold and I unlock it, it can take over a minute to registerAnd then usually once its finally registered my putting in my passcode, more often than not the whole app crashes I'm lucky for it to play two songs before I have to load up the whole app again. So I'm just wondering, how much do you pay the people who test this **bleep**? (I have an iPhone 4s. And no my storage is not full)

    It sounds maybe a bit stereotypical to suggest to completely remove and re-install Spotify, but in most cases this does do the trick.Please follow these short instructions: 1. On the home screen, tap and hold the Spotify icon until it shakes.
    2. Tap the X symbol on the icon.
    3. Open the App Store then search for and install the Spotify Music app. 

  • How to create one department and creating many employees in it in one page

    Hello
    I want my page to include a form to insert a department
    and a table to create many employees and inserting them into the department in one transaction

    here is what i did
    I used view links only to link betwwen the parent & child
    I created bounded task flow
    I dragged and dropped a "createinsert" operation from the master iterator and "createinsert" operation from the detail and linked them to a page
    In the page I dragged a form for the master and a table for the detail ( so I can create multiple records)
    I added "createinsert" and "delete" operations on the table on the form of ADF Buttons so i can add & remove child records
    Here is the problem:
    when I enter some data in the parent form and then try adding child records in the table using the buttons, it refreshes the parent form and clears the data in that form

    Edited by: Dan A on Sep 18, 2008 12:11 PM

    Hussein what a marvelous suggestion.
    That by using cp -RPI can avoid doing a tar ...
    I am copying the applciation directories from TEST to DEV.
    I have copied the iAS directory from TEST to DEV using the tar (appcldev user)
    Now with the appdbdev user, I try to do the same and I get an error with tar:
    tar: 0511-169 A directory checksum error on media
    After checking for the solutions and fining nothing that could help me, I am now simpy copying using the cp -RP.
    Now I have (i know this is a UNIX thing) on the target system:
    iAS directory that was copied using tar (for appcldev user)
    iAS directory where symbolic links were preserved (for appdbdev user)
    Is this difference acceptable vis a vis cloning? Or should I go back to the appcldev user and recopy the iAS directory with the cp _RP option?
    Thanks again.
