Creating a replacement for Timeline using Spry & Javascript

I am using Spry and Javascript to create a set of images that appear and fade after time - like a slideshow.
I want to be able to REPEAT the whole slideshow in a loop but have had no success.
Any ideas? or ideally a SIMPLER way of doing the whole thing!
Here is a cut down version of the script / source code:
<script src="SpryEffects.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0
var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array();
    var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i<a.length; i++)
    if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}}
function MM_swapImgRestore() { //v3.0
var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc;
function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
var p,i,x; if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
    d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n];
for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);
if(!x && d.getElementById) x=d.getElementById(n); return x;

Thank you for your suggestions.
The problem with the pre-formatted slide shows is that they have the horribly clunky panel of thumbnails and the ugly animated resizing of photos. All of which have been seem on loads of other sites.
I am looking for just the enlarged images to change through pre-determined time intervals then repeat in a loop.
The images FIT into the design of the page - there is no need for the other panel of thumbnails.
Hope this clarifies things!
I JUST WANT TO LOOP THE SPRY EFFECTS nothing more.

Hi Mohamed Abdeen,
Please try to enable a build-in app for Office, such as "Bing dictionary" and check if the task pane pop-up.
If the "Bing dictionary" works well, I suppose that this issue might be caused by itself. I recommend you post the question to Word for DEV forum:

Create playback controls for Timeline in sync with audio?

Hi All,
Technically, I've combined two questions into one. Firstly, can someone offer some insight on how to create playback controls for an Edge animation so the user can essentially "scrub" the timeline or navigate to a specific point on the timeline. I know you can create buttons to "sym.play()" different areas but I was wondering if there was a more streamlined solution (something similar to video playback controls.) Next, I'd like the user to be able to skip to different locations while the music remains in sync with the animations. I've created a few buttons to attempt to achieve this but the music plays independently regardless of where I jump to on the timeline.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

I had some ideas why that may be so, but then, when I thought about it, properly, i have no idea why it is that way. Maybe it is because audio has a higher priority than graphics, in OS X, but if I remember correctly, it was like this before OS X. Maybe there is an offset for latency compensation, but they made it too large. (it seems to be the same amount, no matter what the buffer size is)
just to make sure we are seeing the same thing. on my (somehat old) G4 I'm seeing about 60ms difference.

Help creating interactive presentation for iPad using InDesign

Hello All,
So I have some very basic experience using Adobe programs for my personal business solutions. Primarily photoshop. But I just got InDesign CS6 as it was recommend for creating an interactive presentation for an iPad.
Before I get to my main question I'd like to give you the basics on my needs for such presentation. I currently own a residential painting company and we have a printed client manual we use at our sales presentations to cover our services for prospective clients. I would like to create an interactive presentation, document, whatever (is easiest and will provide the best experience) for our sales reps to use on iPad devices. This presentation will ideally be between 20-30 pages long, with a main menu and 4-5 subtopics with page links, video & picture inserts, working web links, GIF's, and anything else that might spark customer interest or be an effective sales tool.
We are trying to integrate everything for use on the ipad for our sales presentation because we can use it as an all in one tool. Specifically for our client manual, schedule, job locations, credit processing, etc... Also, I see a video review on an ipad much more powerful tool than the boring written reviews we have right now.
Anyways, I really have absolutely no idea what I am doing. I have learned Adobe programs from scratch in the past, and I am looking for any beginner advice or resources you guys may have. Maybe some good starting points or examples of presentation templates for ipad use, functionality, etc... Really lost in the fog right now, and just looking for a little beginner guidance.
Any help or advice is grealty appreciated
Thanks
Tim

Tim,
I believe you can get more specific help over here:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/indesign
You may (re)consider the presentation format. A PDF (which may be created from an InDesign document) may an option for identical appearance (requiring sufficient pixel x pixel size of all appliances used. Otherwise, a floating (reflowing) format may be more appropriate. In the latter case, InDesign may be a dead end.

CS5 Trial created sites free for official use?

Hi all, i have the 30 days trial version of Adobe CS5. Can i use all the things i build/create in this trial time, f.e. a new build website, official f.e. upload to a web hoster as my homepage, or can i only try and test, not for official use?
THX!!

There are no restrictions. However, the CS5 software will not run after 30 days from when you install it unless you buy a license.

When can we create Digital Magazines for Personal use?

I would really like to create the same content you can create with the Adobe Digital Publishing Suite, but for personal use and not for publishing to an audience (i.e. personal family magazines). The problem is there is no mechanism for that, will you ever add that functionality, you give us the tools to create the content, but not a way to publish it without paying a huge price.

Hi, Winston
Are you use Apple TV across VLAN? or Are you use multiple Apple TV on same VLAN?
If you use Apple TV across VLAN. Could you advise me how?
PS. I don't find AppleTV unreliable also. It need enterprise devices for support their traffic.

Create OCI catalog for SRM using Web Dynpro

Hi all,
Have you ever implemented an OCI catalog for SRM using web-dynpro?
Please provide details.
Regards,
PooYee

Hi PooYee,
the BSP application would run the WD catalog and communicate with SRM.
In a certain way it would "wrap" the WD catalog application and enable accessing the http header.
This of course is not a trivial implementation.
Send me a mail and maybe I can give you some more ideas.

Creating and releasing (for private use) an app with Adobe DPS

Dear all,
I am creating an app for iOS devices with Adobe DPS.
It will be a private app; I don't want it to be viewable on the app store. I only want to get a .ipa file so that I can send it to my contacts and the can install it on their devices through iTunes.
Honestly I'm a bit lost. It's the first time I'll have to face all of this.
I don't really know how to proceed for a private app. I guess even if it's not available on appstore, the app still have to be approved by Apple ? or am I wrong ? What are the steps to go through in order to get the .ipa file ?
Do I have to follow the same step-by-step tutorial as for a common app ?
Any advice from someone who have already faced the same kind of situation, or from anyone who knows a bit about all of this is very very welcome…
Thanks all for your time.
Best regards.
F.

With a pro account you get a .ipa file and a .zip file. The ipa file is for testing so the devices that you add in the apple developer account ( max 100 in a year ) can all install the ipa file. The .zip is for submitting to apple.
In the enterprise edition for DPS you can create enterprise signed builds that can be installed on any Ipad within the organization. ( no limit to the number of devices you can install it to. )

How to create the animation div dyanimcally using jquery+javascript

Hello,
after a week of researching and without getting the full result i decided to upload new discussion here and maybe some of you guys will help me.thanks in advance.
include the file:

    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=Edge">
    <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="animate_edgePreload.js"></script>

html code:
<div id="Stage" class="EDGE-70798230"></div>    if i put it like this of course everthing works fine..i can put more with different id's and they will work fine...
my problem:
i dont know how many of this animation i will need...depends of what my server will give me in the response...so i need to create them dynamically...
i tried lots of things:
$("#newAnimation").append('<div id="Stage2" class="EDGE-70798230"></div>');    of course with this nothing happend...it even dont get the symbols under stage..and not any of the css...
$(".EDGE-70798230#Stage").clone().appendTo("#newAnimation");
$("#newAnimation").children('#Stage').prop('id','Stage2');   then mroe css changes and just then i can see the animation but it doesnt work..."play is not defind" when i try to run the animations..
i know there is some function that called createChildSymbol/createSymbolChild but none of them work for me...
i use jquery mobile..so to start the animation for example i do $.Edge.symbol.get($("#Stage")).play();
i tried to use the loadResources etc....doesnt work too..
anyone have some idea what i can do? it is possible?

joel pau thank you for all the support.
now i will explain the anwer if anyone else will be stuck with the same problem.
first of all in edge animate need to mark all the things that created and "convert to symbol"(mark all and right click).
second:
in the top of your html file you got the script to the edge_preLoad.js .....
so now in your js code:
lets say we use append to add new div to our code and now we got <div id="new"</div>.
$.Edge.getComposition("yourCompositionID").createSymbolChild("yourSymbolThatCreatedInStepO ne","#new");
like this you can get new animation of the same composition.
if you want to conroll the animation you just need to take the id of the new symbol your created using jquery or any way you like.
and example of control it:
$.Edge.symbol.get("#theNewID").play();

How to create a dataplugin for DataFinder using LabVIEW

We want to use LabVIEW to create a dataplugin that will be used by DataFinder (My DataFinder). We have found on the NI web site the LabVIEW DataPlugin SDK - , a SDK that allow us to create a dataplugin. The SDK is for LabVIEW 8.6.
The dataplugin example code of the SDK work very well in the “For testing” section of the development project. We are also able to register it to use it through DataFinder. The dataplugin is available in the “Configure ...” window of DataFinder.The problem is that the dataplugin doesn’t work with DataFinder. We didn’t receive any kind of error message or code. We only get the value “eIndexedFailure” in the “Index status” property. After expectation, it seems those input parameters are different between a LV and a VBS dataplugin. And we think that can be the source of the problem. There is someone that can help us about that?
We also want to use LabVIEW 2009. The SDK example work under 2009, but we get the same problem with DataFinder.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Dear Kelly R, you're right I can’t open the file in DIAdem. The RegisterLabVIEWDataPlugin.ini file is correct. But I’ve just tried to rebuild the project and then use the Installer instead of just using the Deploy. Now it works, even with my own code. Now I can open the file in DIAdem without problem. The installer uses the “NI LabVIEW Dataplugin 1.0” package. It seems that the SDK installer has never install this package.I thank you all for your help.

InDesgin CS6: What is best practice for creating a jpg for web use?

My graphic design experience is heavy toward print, but I’ve been charged to solve this web-graphics problem for my team. I’ve done searches online and can’t find resources specific to this issue. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.
Here’s the issue:
My team uses both InDesign and Photoshop CS6, to make landing pages and other stuff for our website. After saving to jpg files, the InDesign files always have jaggy text compared to Photoshop’s jpg. What are we doing wrong? Can’t InDesign be used for web? I’ve also tried saving it out as PNG with no better results.
Note: The background in the InDesign files are created in Photoshop (these look fine in both programs)—but the text created in InDesign looks jaggy while Photoshop’s text looks clean.
Here’s how we save it in Photoshop
File > Save for Web with these settings: JPG, High, Optimized, Quality 70, Blur 0, Matte None, Quality Bicubic.
Here’s how I solved the problem (which seems too labor intensive to actually be correct) Is there a better way?
I convert text to outlines.
I change the “intent” to web intent
Manually reset the page size. Whenever I change the intent in anyway, InDesign automatically changes the page size to 8.5”x11” or 800x600 pix regardless of the original page-size. I expect it to change proportionately from inches to pixels, or vise-versa, but it just won’t do it. Is there a preference for this somewhere?
Export as JPG with these setting: Quality Maximum, Format method progressive, Resolution 72 ppi, Color Space RGB, Options: Embed Color Profile: sRGB IEC6196-2.1, anti-alias.
Our web people tell us that if we use a higher resolution the image comes in proportionately too large, and they can’t use it at that size.
This seems like a lot of work. There must be a better way?

Ok. Thank you. Hmm....I don't have PDF/X-4. I have Adobe Preset PDF/X1a and PDF/X3.
I assume PDF/X-4 is a from a newer version of InDesign. Will PDF/X-3 work as well?
So there is not a way to achieve a crisp jpg or png directly from InDesign without all the steps I'm using now?
BTW, do you happen know why changing the "intent" changes the page size? or where I can change a preference on this. unless I've overlooked it, I don't see anything relating to this under edit > preferences.
Thanks again for your reply, I value your input!

How to create interactive pdf for Ipad using InDesign CS6

Hi I created a Magazine layout using InDesign CS6 and wanted it to be viewed on native Ipad reader (but not as apps). I put interactivity features like page navigations and hyperlinks and converted it to interactive pdf. The problem was the links and buttons are not showing on Ipad.
I tried using Acrobat Pro to create the hyperlinks and this time the navigations and hyperlinks are showing. But is there a way not to create the hyperlinks manually one by one (specially the next page and previous page). If I have more than 100 pages of documents this process will be very tedious.
Is there a solution to create the interactive pdf directly from InDesign without creating the links in Acrobat?

Hi Guys
This is Sean Smith. Marilou who wrote the original post works for me. Bob if you could point us in the direction of details you need I’ll ensure we provide the additional information as soon as possible.
M tells me she pretty much doing exactly what Steve's article suggests.
The concern is what a remarkably cumbersome process this appears to be.
Even though I believe her explanation entirely I find the problem to be highly disconcerting as it’s wasting an immense amount of valuable time and inhibiting the production process significantly.
She is producing wonderful results but via an immensely painstaking process fraught with potential for error. Each page link has to be manually linked to the next by number. It’s entirely possible to make a mistake and link to the incorrect page thus missing pages.
If she inserts a new page – guess what? All the pages links have to changed manually and double checked yet again.
If she makes a ‘Contents’ section as we do and exports the InDesign file as an interactive PDF all the contents items and links are missing and are therefore blank.
She then has to export the document as a plain PDF and do the job again in Acrobat.
For an extravagantly wealthy company with such extraordinarily expensive software I find this to be entirely incredulous.
Who is the Product Manager for InDesign?
Are they aware of this issue?
What are they doing about it and when will it be done?
Just curious are you guys paid employees or volunteers as this appears to be an official forum and we are new here?
Digital publishing of PDF magazines appears to be an explosive growth market especially for platforms such as the iPad but this primary product for the task appears to be inadequate or ill-conceived.
Is DPS a possible solution or is this more for Apps than PDF production?
Regards
Sean
