Create a custom widget

I would like to create a "component" -- basically a drop-down menu.  Except that my drop-down menu will not select an item when a user clicks on it.  The user must click on it for 2 seconds and then it will be selected.  How can I create this custom widget/component?

Thanks for your reply.  I was looking at AS 3 classes and in particular the Spark class DropDownList.  I am thinking of creating a class that extends from DropDownList.  Then overriding some method that will allow me to implement exactly when something should be selected (not just a click of the mouse but when the mouse is held down for 2 seconds).  I am just having trouble finding which method this would be, maybe a public or private method or an event.  I'm such a noob at this I'm sure this is obvious and either someone already knows it or it will catch their eye very quickly.  This is the link to the DropDownList in case someone wants to take a glance at it: class http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/spark/components/DropDo wnList.html   I appreciate all your help.

  • Is it possible to force links inside a custom widget to open in Safari instead of within the widget?

    I'm just starting to get into working with iBooks Author, so apologies in advance if this is a FAQ.  I've search the forum and the web but haven't been able to find an answer.
    I'm trying to link out to an external resource from within a custom widget I've created.
    Instead of opening in Safari, the link is opening within the widget overlay.  There are no browser controls, the content doesn't scroll and there's no way to get back to the widget's original content without closing and reopening the book.  Closing and reopening the widget doesn't reset the widget state.
    I can work around this if I have to, but I'm hoping someone here has a solution.

    I'm looking for an answer to this too. I found that you can do this in a normal Dashboard widget with widget.openURL("...") but for whatever reason the openURL method isn't available in iBooks. Still looking for a solution...

  • Custom widget triggers - or call widget functions

    The title says it !
    Take for example three scenarios:
    1. We have a lightbox display with several slides. Each slide has interactive content like buttons. Some of the buttons will cause the lightbox to close but at the same time we need the close button. So, more than one close buttons.
    2. We need to navigate between slides in a certain order, so on the first slide, we dont need the previous button although it will have to appear as soon as we move on. Likewise, the next button should be removed on the last slide.
    3. After opening a slide in a lightbox we want a css animation to play. The css is created externaly, its put into assets and linked from an html object. But when and how would we call the animation to start? The css fires up as soon as stuff is loaded but we need it to play exactly after the slide is brought into view.
    • So the question is clear: Is it possible to do those from inside muse, or we need to create custom widgets from scratch? Like with jquery maybe.
    • Is there a way to alter the default muse scripts, or simply call widget functions from our buttons? Example: button calls lightbox.close() or lightbox.next(); etc...
    I'm sorry if it has been asked before, i just couldn't find something the way i've searched it. Maybe I'm asking the wrong way but I believe its clear. Anyway, there is not need for muse to do everything, if someone has a workaround would be also welcome!
    Thanks alot!

    Hi Fabrice,
    You should be able to use the cpCmndGotoSlide variable. I suspect that the problem is something with your path in Flash.
    Can you post an excerpt of the code you use for your buttons in the Flash widget?

  • Custom Widgets

    Chandrashekar, Alaiah <[email protected]> wrote
    <snip!>
    Do anyone know about developing custom widgets in Forte. I have a
    situation were I need to develop a Ruler widget which is very similar
    to the Line widget provided by Forte. I tried subclassing it from the
    Line widget and it does not allow me to do that. IM(NS)HO, one of the (few!) real weaknesses of Forte is its barrenness,
    in the genealogical sense -- most of its objects, including, apparantly,
    all the graphic ones, can't have children. My particular graphic gripe
    is the lack of a spin widget, but I sympathise.
    In SOME cases you can get the "moral equivalent" of subclassed widgets
    by other means. These include (but are not limited to!):
    * Subclassing non-graphic objects to get a custom display (e.g. a
    subclass of IntegerNullable that displays itself as Roman
    numerals). I suspect this approach does not meet your needs.
    * Writing non-graphic manager objects to manipulate a bunch of graphic
    objects in standard ways to make them "look" kind of like a
    custom graphic object. For example, one way to get a ruler might
    be to put a panel on your window, and create a non-graphic
    object that draws appropriately in that panel, and (using an
    event handler which must be manually registered) responds to
    events in it.
    * Create a window that's just one big ruler, and nest that window in
    whatever window you want to display a ruler. This is how I
    simulated a spin widget.
    When choosing among the last two alternatives, I go for the latter, more
    out of habit than anything else. I believe that with a nested window you
    get a simpler object; but on the other hand you can't usefully nest a
    window in an array field (it simply doesn't function) or a mapped
    CompoundField (it'll function just fine, but won't automatically update
    the mapped object unless you do something to explicitly tell the nested
    window what it's supposed to be updating).
    You will find a sample app using nested windows in

    HI
    The buttons used in the Program displayed by your link are mostly images used in the buttons, especially for the toolbar. So may have to get out your drawing board and start creating yorur own images. Also the button used for the inner frame, is something that can be achieved by creating a new look and feel for your application. Check out the Code Examples in you sdk, the MetalWorks example in particular. Go through all the looks and feels provided for that application and try to come up with your own, so that you frame buttons will look fancier.
    Also search the net for IFrame. I can't remember the site where it is located but it provides you with Java classes for custom JFrames which a have very powerful and interest appearances.
    These should get you on your way. Do remember:
    1. Images for toolbar buttons and normal JButton
    2. Custom Look and Feel for JFrame buttons
    All the best.

  • Can I create my own widget?

    I want to create a new lead form widget that contains different fields and connects to our CRM.

    Hello,
    Can you please provide some more detailed info on your requirement?
    As such, there is no option to create or add your own custom widget into Muse or Business Catalyst, if you're looking for that. You have pre-built widgets available for use, as per your requirement.
    If you're looking for forms to be able to add more fields to your CRM, you should try the 'CRM -> Extend CRM database' option in your Business Catalyst site.
    Cheers

  • How to create a custom glossary ?

    Hello, In my elearning module, I have put a glossary button at the top right corner, which when clicked shows a popup with a custom glossary. Please help me how to create a custom glossary.

    It depends on what out put you are using, SWf or HTML5 or both.
    For swf I think a widget that reads an xml file is the best option.
    For html5, create an html glossary and insert as a web object.

  • Creating Links in Widgets to Chapters, Images, Elsewhere?

    Hi,
    I have a client that wants to create an interactive timeline.  Obviously the only way to do that is with a custom widget.  Is it possible to create links in widgets that take you elsewhere in the book, outside of the widget?  That is to say, a link in a widget that can take you to a chapter or figure or whatever outside of that same widget, elsewhere in the book.
    I've searched for several days for information regarding this.  If there is information about this posted somewhere, I'd be very grateful if you could point me to it.
    Thanks in Advance!
    Richard York

    Haven't tried elsewhere in an iBook but you can link to web pages as long as you have an Internet connection.
    Widgets generally open to full screen so you would have to close the widget to move to another part of the book.
    I have successfully linked to many web sites and pages with html widgets but again a connection is required.
    You could use local storage for some data.
    hope this helps...

  • Is there a way to create a custom screensaver with pics/slides that display for different amounts of time?

    Is there a way to create a custom screensaver with pics/slides that display for different amounts of time? Or even add a "video slide" into the screensaver?
    My business has 3 TVs displayed in our lobby, each with its own apple TV and they are all linked to the same photo stream. Currently the Atv screensaver displays the photostream pictures of our products for the default 3 seconds. We just added pics/slides that now display messages and useful info for our customers but I want that info to be displayed for a longer period of time than the pictures to give people a chance to read it.
    I tried using flickr and powerpoint as a work around but no luck.  I created a slide in powerpoint with play length of 15 secs and saved it as a wmv file.  I added that file to a "screensaver" set in flickr and pointed the Atv screensaver to that flickr set.  It still displays everything, pics and the wmv file at the default 3 sec.
    I know I can increase the duration of all pics in the screensaver to display for longer but the goal is to have the pics display at 3 secs and the info slides to display at 15 secs.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No that's not possible.
    If you have any suggestions that you think might enhance the Apple TV you can send Apple your feedback here 

  • I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
    You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
    You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
    Menu > Format > Import Styles
    The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

  • Create a custom web template using VS 2012 with web features,site features sections applied

    hi,

    i am  looking for a code based article  which has step by step process which provides how to add the site features, web features and attach the eventreceivers etc etc on sitecollection creation when i apply this template from central admin. 
    can anyone provide me any links / any source how to create a custom web template with one / two  custom features -  site features element and web features element , / master page etc ....

    help is appreciated !
    Das

    The problem is that Web Templates are deployed to a gallery in a site collection and aren't available in Central Admin when creating a new site collection.  YOu have to create the site collection without choosing a template and then choose your web
    template when you first access the root site in the site collection.  Here's an article that discusses that process here:
    http://sharepointchick.com/archive/2011/02/10/using-web-templates-to-create-site-collections.aspx
    Other than that Vesa's article is still the best one and works essentially the same in 2013 as it does in 2010.

  • Create a custom Master Page in SharePoint Foundation 2013

    Hi,
    I am new to SharePoint foundation.
    I am trying to create a custom master page and save it as template, so that i can use it for all other sub sites. But i don't know where to start. Also i tries searching in Google, i got results for share point and not for share point foundation.
    So, Please give me a step by step procedure or a link to step by step procedure on how to create a master page, save it as template and use it for a sub site.
    Thanks in advance,
    Gowtham R

    Few points to note related to SharePoint Master page:
    You don't need to create master page template. If you deploy your master page in site collection level you can reuse the same master page in subsites without copying again and again, rather just by referencing
    You have not mentioned how you are going to deploy your master page. If you have any Visual Studio (VS) solution already, try to add your  master page in the VS solution and deploy your master page (and other branding components) as SharePoint WSP
    solution.
    Deploying master page will not activate the master page, you need to use some kind of 'Web Level Feature' to activate your branding - the feature will basically set the master page property of SharePoint site to your custom master page.
    Please follow the links below for steps by steps instructions (and you will find many just by googling 'sharepoint master page visual studio'):
