Creating a rollover effect type button using an image? (Captivate 7)

What I would like to do is create something so that when you hover or roll over a specific area, it shows an image (it will appear right under where your mouse pointer is). When you move your mouse away, the image goes away. And if you click on the image when it appears (since it will be right under your mouse), it takes you to another slide, or runs an advanced action.
If I use a rollover slidelet, I move the slidelet piece off-stage because I don't want to use that- I just keep the slidelet area and put there where I want it. I then set the image I want as not visible in output, and set it so that rolling over the slidelet area "shows" this image. The problem with this of course is that when you mouse off, the image is still there. Without creating a custom button with different states, is doing something like this possible?
To clarify a little more, I have an image of a menu created. The menu is a list of text items you can click, listed vertically, like:
-Learn to log in
-Learn to check your grades
-Learn to send a message
and so on.
I have an image of each line of text changed to a different color, with an arrow next to it. So, I want to set it so when you hover over "Learn to log in," it turns blue with an arrow next to it. This effect goes away when you move your mouse off. And when you click it, it takes you to a specific slide.
What is the best way to achieve this?

Ah I forgot about this. I used to do that, but I had some issues at some point with the order of the items. Some of them were linked to advanced actions, and depending on what layer was on top, it was not playing correctly with what was underneath. But this is working perfectly for what I need. Thank you!

FW8 Can't Seem To Create Disjoint Rollover Effect

Hello,
I used previous versions of FW to create "disjoint rollover"
effects without any problem. This time I'm using FW8 to create the
same effect but so far it has proved unsuccessful, I have even
tried the step by step instruction of "help" menu with no success.
Can somebody pease help me with how to achieve this effect
with FW8 if it is possible.
Many thanks in advance!

More than half of the trouble posts on the DW forum are the
result of using
a graphics editor to write HTML. It's a grand idea that
utterly fails.
Such HTML is rigid, and fragile. You cannot avoid HTML if you
are going to
be working on the web, no matter what the marketing hype
says.
Harsh? Perhaps. True and well intentioned? Yes.

Create a rollover effect with an avg with edge animate

Hi,
I would like to know if there is a way to create a rollover effect (i.e. get my social media icons spin or drop shadow or change color) when I hover over them, I know how to do it with CSS 3 but I think it will also be useful if I learn how to do it with Adobe Edge Animate. I appreciate your time.
Thank you.

Adobe Muse: Is it possible to create a Social Network type website using Muse?

Hey everyone,
So ive recently came up with what i believe to be a pretty nifty idea for a social network type website, but i was just wondering is it possible to create such a website using muse? Ive created a few websites with it but never integrated features such as profile pages for users, searching options and other common things found on a few of the more well known sites such as Facebook, Twitter and so on. I dont really want to say what my idea is for obvious reasons, but if anyone knows if you can create a social network style website using Adobe Muse that can incorporate these such features, Id love to know. and if so can you point me in the direction of how to go about it, or to some instructional videos or sites that will help me out. thank you so much everyone,
Callum

Hi Prabha Sharma,
I am afraid that at this stage this is not possible via Muse as that requires server side coding. You can start off creating a skeleton/template for your social networking site via Muse and then use that further with your own custom code. however, I will not recommend that you continue making your site with Muse as you will face issues in altering the muse generated code.

HTML Button use an image instead of Text

I have an HTML button in its own region called A_BUTTON, its current Button display attributes are
sytle: HTML Button
Attributes: name="A" class="where_clause_button"
what it does is i use a dynamic action based off the where_clause_button jquery selector and use javascript to update a hidden field. I would now like to use the Oracle Logo for example as the image of the button instead of using a text label for it. I tried adding to the Attributes src="http://www.oracleimg.com/admin/images/ocom/hp/oralogo_small.gif". When i run it the button still works the same as before but without the image and retains its Text Label, in this case its A.
the html it generates is for the button during runtime is:
<input type="button" src="http://www.oracleimg.com/admin/images/ocom/hp/oralogo_small.gif" class="where_clause_button" name="A" onclick="apex.submit('');" id="A_BUTTON" value="A">
How do i retain the functionality of this button but make it an image button?
Edited by: Brobot on Feb 9, 2011 5:22 PM

<li>Use a template based button and customize the template with the image.
<li>Add appropriate JS code to the URL section(prefixing with "javascript:" ) and optionally add a some ID attribute for easy JS access.

After Effects--Composition not using entire image frame??

Hello,
I'm very new to After Effects so I'm sorry if this is a very simple question. I've Googled it and I think maybe I'm using incorrect terminology because I haven't found anything that describes what is happening. So, I've taken a screen shot to hopefully help illustrate my issue.
I'm using After Effects CC - 2014.1 Release on a Late 2013 Mac Pro. Trying to piece together an animation render from Autodesk Maya.
Right now I'm using a test render so that I can figure out the import settings for when the final one is finished rendering. In this test there are 94 images, each intended to be one "frame" in a 24 frames per second animation. I think I have altered these settings correctly as it seems to be about the correct length (94 "frames" / 24 fps = 3.9167 or 3:55 seconds)
The problem I'm running into is that After Effects is only showing a small viewport of the actual images. I've outlined in the bright green dashed line the approximate actual image size and where in the image it is showing in After Effects. All of the images are the same size and same resolution, and they are all being shown only in this small window.
How can I change the settings to have the final animation show the entirety of the frame? Obviously it's showing such a small area that it won't work for me-- I really need all of that missing information shown.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

What size movie does Maya expect? If it's conventional HD, 1920x1080, you must scale your images to fit the comp size. If you need a comp that is 4k you must change the properties of the comp. they are both easy to do but require a bit experience with the AE interface. Start at the beginning of the basic tutorials that we refer to around here.
and welcome to the family. AE is hard. Really hard.

Known Issue: "DNS server could not be reached" when creating or updating a RemoteApp collection using template images for some locales

When trying to create or update Azure RemoteApp collections that use a template image for some non-EN-US locales, it might fail with error "DNS server could not be reached". You might also see error code "DnsNotReachable".

Cause: There was a issue in Azure in which decimal punctuation was not treated properly if the locale of the template image used a comma (,) instead of a period (.).
Workaround: Before a fix was applied, the workaround was to use template images based on a locale that uses a period to delimit decimals, such as EN-US.
Resolution: As of March 19, 2015, a fix for this issue has been applied to Azure. You should once again be able to create collections from template images that use non-EN-US locales. If you continue to have this problem, please
try the workaround. If that works and the only difference in the template images is the locale, please email remoteappforum (at Microsoft). If the workaround does not work, the issue is likely caused by a DNS configuration issue such as:
No valid forwarders to public DNS servers configured on your internal DNS server(s).
A valid internal DNS server is not specified on your Azure RemoteApp VNet.
A VNet or internal network configuration issue is preventing the internal DNS servers from be reached by the VMs in the RemoteApp collection.

How can I create this rollover effect in Flash CS5?

I'm pretty new to Flash, and I want to create a button like these.
I understand how to make a basic rollover button, but I haven't got a clue how to do animation like that.
http://www.werkstette.dk

the easiest way would be to create one movieclip that has
1. a rectangular mask (to mask everything),
2. a dynamic textfield with whatever colored and embedded font.
3. whatever colored background
4. another textfield that has a y property greater than the mask so it's not visible until the mask is rolled over. embed the font
5. another background for the rolled over movieclip
everything will need instance names so you can control with actionscript. you can then assign rollover and rollout code to your movieclip mask.
on rollover, you'll tween the first textfield (and possibly background) to a y less than your mask. tween the textfield with easing. and you'll tween the 2nd textfield and 2nd background to about the same y as your mask. again, tween the textfield with easing but not the background.

Creating Custom fields (data type QUAN) using EEWB

Hi all
I tried to create two customised fields using EEWB for CRM Opportunity:
1. Projected Volume (data type 'QUAN', length 13, 3 decimal places)
2. Projected Unit (data type 'UNIT')
In the SAP-generated tables, I have set the reference table field for 'Projected Volume' to point to 'Projected Unit'. However, I encountered errors that is related to Table Buffering and Restricted Transport for the Projected Volume field.
If I were to change the data type to 'NUMC', field generation is ok. Does anyone know to resolve this issue? I need the Projected Volume field to be of data type 'QUAN' since decimal place is required.
Thanks for your advice!

SAP Note 746227 has addressed this issue. I will close this question.

How do I create this rollover effect?

http://www.gunnar.ca/layout.htm
I am attempting to design a site. I have the idea for the
layout and have created it using tables at the address above. I
realize I should be using css to create the layout instead of
tables. First of all - is this layout difficult to create using css
- and where would I start with that? I ordered an HTML/CSS book and
will dig in when it arrives.
Secondly - I want an image to appear in the empty space
(where there is an empty table right now) when I mouse over a menu
item - ie when I mouse over "wood veneer" I want a graphic to
appear in the empty space - that would be java script, no?
So I would layout the page using html and css, then add some
java script in to make the roll over thing happen?

Creating a new amount type for use in the standard FSG report

I have a question for the forum based on a business requirement.
On our standard FSG monthly reports, we display variance values for current MTD versus the MTD value from the previous year.
As designed, a positive variance in revenue is displayed as a positive number. Also as designed, a positive variance in expenses is displayed as a positive number as well.
In our industry (Time Shares), the prevailing method of showing an unfavorable variance in expenses when comparing the current month to the same month in the previous year is to format the variance as a negative number. This is apparently a requirement which I have to try to meet.
In researching the seeded amount types in the FSG setup, there does not exist one which would invert the sign on the expense variance only, and inverting the sign on the column reverses the sign on the revenue variance as well.
Has anyone gone through this exercise before, whether with clever programming or through an engagement with Oracle Consulting?
Any comments or lessons learned from past experience would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
Steve Haworth

How do I create an after effects file with an interchangeable image

Hey,
hope someone can help me, I'm using after effects to create a mp4 file, it contains a photo which has a animation super imposed ontop of it.
When the projects finished the base photo that the animation is created around could change up three times a day.
What I'm trying to work out is a way for a non technical user to just be able to upload the new photo to somewhere and for the animation to be created and returned somehow to him so that the animator doesn't have to re open and edit the affect effect project each time a new photo comes in.
Is there a way to do this built into after effects does any one know?
Thanks for any help

For that kind of volume and unattended operation, you want InDesign Server – which is the server/high volume edition of INDD.

How do I create this particle effect?

I am pretty new to After Effects and I'm getting to grips with all the particle effects and have managed to create some cool looking animations, but I'm trying to create the particle effect as seen in the image link below. Can anyone tell me how this is done, and what plug-in (if any) would be used to create something like this? I can't get anything I do to look like this. Thanks...
http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/5001/particleskf1.jpg

Create the custom particle in Photoshop or a separate comp. Drag the custom particle into your main comp, turn its visibility off, set Particular's particle setting to "Custom Particle", and choose the new layer as the source.
Create a camera for the comp and turn on "Depth of field". Experiment with the settings until you get the desired effect.
Personally, I'd use two Particular layers for that look, one for the larger particles and another for the smaller ones.

Help using swap images to swap 2 separate images

I am trying to use swap images to swap two separate images on
the same page but I can't get it to work. Here is the code for one
image, rotator. I also have a second image,rotatorB that I want to
swap different images with. I think I need two separate codes but
do not know how to do it.

Sorry, I don't know enough about how fireworks functions - but overall, I think it's always best to create the slices in a program like fireworks, (or image ready, etc), and then build the actual page in Dreamweaver (or other web software). It's kind of like how Photoshop used to let you create the slices, then export the entire photoshop file as an html page - it would create a very basic page with multiple nested tables that were nothing but trouble...
For what it's worth - Dreamweaver makes it fairly easy to do - once you're familiar it should only take a few minutes to accomplish (once you have all of the pieces saved to the images folder).
Fireworks isn't a web-creation software - it's function is to optimize images for the web, and slice up graphics (from what I know about it, anyway...)
**Also, on a side note - there are many disadvantages to creating buttons with graphics - number one reason is down the road when a client wants to add or modify the buttons, they will need the original photoshop file - and the fonts loaded in order to accomplish... then need to save out both the on and off state for each. I've been there, and they find it very annoying (known to lose customers because of it). Secondly, search engines and Handicap accessible software can't read graphics - even if you apply "alt tags", it's not as good as having a text link. If possible, it's best to use text for the links (and creating the rollover effects with stylesheets - there are tons of examples: http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q=css+rollover&form=MS8TDF&pc=MS8TDF&src=IE-SearchBox
Hope that helps
