Custom button table of contents widget

Hi guys,
I used to have a widget that would allow you to create a custom button for expanding the table of contents ... one for the default state and then it would swap the image when it was expanded, the button would attach to the right hand side of the TOC ... does anyone know if this widget still exists and preferably one that works in version 7?

Do you really still need it? Since Captivate 6 in the TOC-settings you have the possibility to upload custom Collapse/Expand icons to use as buttons:

About table of contents on ibooks author

Hello everyone, I am preparing an ibook on ibooks author and I want to custom the table of contents but I don't get to do it. Whenever I paste an item it appears on every single section within the table of contents. I would also like to know, if I paste an image how do I get it to fill the entire slide. Thanks in advance

I'm not 100% sure what you're hoping to do, but if you mean the TOC background, that will look the same for every chapter (what changes is the text and the thumbnails that are generated at the bottom). Whichever colors and graphical treatments you choose when editing the master, that is what you will see throughout the TOC. As you add new chapters, they are automatically added to the TOC and generated on preview / export / publish.
iBA is heavily template based, as the program is geared towards text books even though Apple doesn't market it as exclusively for text books.

How do I customize the Table Of Contents Expand ( ) button?

I have a client that would like to change the color of the TOC Expand (>>) button which is by default a light grey. I have tried changing all the options in the Skin Editor under Table of Contents, Playback Control and Borders, and nothing has worked. Am I missing something obvious or is there no way to customize this button?
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
You might not be able to change the color of Expand button but you can add your own customized images.
1) Launch Adobe Captivate 5.5 project
2) Click on Project -> Table of Contents
3) Click on the Setting button
4) Under TOC settings, you have Expand Icon and Collapse Icon sections
5) Click on "Folder button" and browse your picture
Screenshot :
This is how your output will look :
Hope this helps !!
Thanks,

Can I create a custom table of contents and link to other .pdf files based on responses to a form?

Hey Everyone! First post ever, so bear with me:
I'm trying to create a streamlined method to use a form to let myself and others add information and select certain options to put together a custom table of contents. Basically, I would like to have a form with a series of text fill and single/multiple choice options that will automatically populate a table of contents based on the selections and will link to other .pdf files that are associated with the selections. I was hoping this would be possible with a form, but I'm relatively new to the function of the software as a whole and my research came up short. Any suggestions on how to start are more than welcome, and if I wasn't quite clear enough I would be happy to elaborate.
Thanks for your time!

You would need to search for other PDF creation software that can accomplish what you desire.
There are many cheaper PDF creation alternatives other than Adobe's Acrobat Pro software.
Also, try doing a web search under these terms to see if you can find an app/software/solution that may work for you.

Adobe acrobat pro 9 help button shows no table of contents

Have you tired Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro ?
If there are Icons in the upper left of the screen, try some of them.

I created a book in iBooks Author using the Photo Book template. When I rotate to portrait orientation, the photo or widget disappears and a table of contents appears with only the interactive media showing.

I created a book in iBooks Author using the Photo Book template. When I rotate to portrait orientation, the photo or widget disappears and a table of contents appears with only the interactive media showing.

Thanx for the prompt response, KT. I have indeed seen that thread, only just after I posted the question.
I have spent hours on the phone with what I now know is a call center in Texas on this question.
I think Apple could be a little more "hands on" with iBooks Author users, and it should also be pointed out that landscape photos will not display in portrait mode.
In my case, I used gallery widgets to display vertical photos, since they look better in portrait mode.
But instead of simply rotating, the page disappears and a TOC of interactive media appears. The gallery behaves as expected when tapped. This is not what I expected, but since the gallery works, I can live with it.
Right now I have "tickets" telling me to "fix" this "problem or to disable portrait mode.
I don't want to disable portrait mode.
Will Apple accept the books if I tell them this is not an "error?"

Creating button that will take you to table of contents pages

I'm using CS4 and have created a 30 page document with a table of contents (TOC) on page 2. On my master page I have previous and next page buttons that have rollover states. These work.
I want a button in the middle that will take you to the TOC page.
I have tried creating a text anchor on page 2 and setting the action of my button to go to anchor but in the button window the text anchors area is grayed out and has 'none' in it.
I also tried to have a button with a rollover state just for show (no action assigned) and putting an invisible hyperlink on top of the button. The link goes to page 2. This only works on the areas where my hyperlink does not overlap the button.
Is there a way around this?

Hi Sparkgapper,
Is this a Pages question? YOu are in the Numbers for Mac forum.
From your profile, is this an iWork '09 question?

I double check my table of content and I do not have a place holder... so I don't understand the error.

Why are multiple slides under one table of contents button?

I'm using Captivate 8, and notice that when I preview my course, the table of contents buttons directly correspond with each slide but then after that, the remaining slides are lumped under one table of contents button. How can I fix this? In other words, when looking at the table of contents, it looks like my course only has 6 slides when in reality there's 30...many of which are lumped under the last button.

You have to scroll, they are not under one button at all.
Good practice is to group slides, then you'll see the hierarchy in the TOC and you are able to collapse all groups. That way the TOC will have a clean look, and the user can open a group to see the individual slides.

Custom Button in ALV table

Hi Experts,
I have created a custom button 'SELECT' in ALV table toolbar.
lo_function = l_value->if_salv_wd_function_settings~create_function( 'SELECT' ).
Now i am getting position of this custom button next to the Standard buttons ('Print' and 'Export' ). So how do I change the custom button position to first place. I mean the custom button should be in the left most position in the toolbar.
Please help me in resolving this.
Regards,
Sarathy.

Thank you Lekha. Set_position is working.
We have to change the positon of custom button and the standard button. So that the position of button gets interchnaged.
Regards,
Sarathy

"Table of Contents" web part - How to have expand/collapse buttons? (I can use only CSS/JavaScript/JQuery)

Hi there,
I have a Table of Contents web part which is great. Is there a way so it shows only top level sites and then one can expand or collapse any top level site to see/hide the subsites?
As of now it shows
HR Parent site
- HR sub site 1
- HR sub site 2
IT Parent site
- IT sub site 1
- IT sub site 2
What I want is
+ HR Parent site
+ IT Parent site
So one can expand or collapse on demand.
Any relevant JS/CSS/JQuery code?
Thank you so much.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to expand or collapse the level site for the table of contents web part.
I have made a simple code demo below to achieve this scenario, you can refer to it.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
var iconCollapse = "/_layouts/images/collapse.gif";
var iconExpand = "/_layouts/images/expand.gif";
$("div[id='WebPartWPQ2'] li ul").hide();
//ugly way
var $t = $("#WebPartWPQ2 div").children("ul").children("li").children("div");
$t.each(function(){
//console.log($(this).html());
$(this).attr("style", "float: right; margin-right: 297px; line-height: 8px;");
$(this).css("display","inline");
$("<a src=" + iconExpand + "></img>").insertBefore($(this));
$("a[class='min']").click(function()
var img = $(this).children();
//Traverse the DOM to find the child UL node
var subList = $(this).siblings().children('ul');
//Check the visibility of the item and set the image
var Visibility = subList.is(":visible")?img.attr('src',iconExpand):img.attr('src',iconCollapse);
//Toggle the UL
subList.slideToggle();
</script>
Note: Yous should change the Web part ID and the css style to fit your environment.
Thanks & Regards,
Jason

How do I place a remote url in the table of contents?

Hi,
We were recently customizing icons for our WebHelp output, and in doing so discovered the option to customize an icon for Remote URL. It can be found by navigating to the Skin Editor:
WebHelp Skin Editor/Navigation/Remote URL
Changing the icon was easy. But I can't figure out how you place such a remote URL so that it appears in the book hierarchy and table of contents? I tried placing it in the HTML Files in the Project Manager pod, but don't see any option to accomplish it that way.
Coudl anyone please share how this is accomplished?
Thanks in advance,
Douglas

If you open the TOC pod, there should be a button for adding a new TOC page. In the dialog box that displays, you should be able to set a URL rather than a project topic.
HTH,
Amber

Table of Contents navigation question in Captivate 5.5

Hi - I'm a fairly new user of Captivate (5.5.), and hope that someone can answer this question. I'm trying to set up a table of contents with navigation that will not let users go to slides that they have not yet viewed, but still enable users who have left and re-entered a course go back to any previous slide that they've viewed. Here are some details:
* I'm publishing the course using the SCORM 2004 setting, and testing it in SCORM Cloud and our LMS (Cornerstone)
* The table of contents navigation is set only to "Navigate visited slides only."
* After reading as many of the related posts as I could find on this forum, I've been able to get bookmarking to work - that is, the course will take the user back to where he or she left off. And by using the InfoSemantics TicTOC widget, when a user returns to the course, all previously viewed slides are checked off in the table of contents.
* However, whatever I've tried, a user who leaves and goes back into a course can only navigate back to the first slide, not to any of the other slides he or she already viewed. I'd like for our users to be able to go back to any previous slide they viewed (for example, to review the section just before the one where they left off, or to review any part of the course for reference after completing it).
Is there a combination of settings, or a widget somewhere, that will let you both limit forward navigation to visited slides only, while still allowing users to go back to any previously viewed slide after exiting and re-entering a course? And this would need to work in an LMS.
Thanks for any advice you can give!

I did have the self-paced learning option checked, so I unchecked it. I did not have "user must past quiz" as required (it's set as optional). I tried adding an interactive button to the first slide and giving it a score. But after re-publishing, I still can only go back to the first slide (not any previously viewed slide) if I stop and re-enter the course. Here are the settings:
Quiz Reporting:
Manifest:
LMS Customization:
Quiz Settings:
Quiz Pass/Fail:
Settings for the interactive object on the first slide:
Settings for the "quiz" on the last slide:
Thanks so much for helping me with this.

I am setting up breakpoints in WCEM, tab JAVA EE then from menu RUN->Toggle brekpoints and then debug configuration.
the breakpoints are in several places in handler class BITDetailviewVCHandler class including method downloadBITData.
this method I am calling from BitContentview.XHTML
<wec:commandButton id="bdtexcel" immediate="true" actionListener="#{cc.vch.DownloadBITData}" type="submit" value="#{i18n['invoices.ui.openitems.printSelected']}"/>
When the BIT page is loading the control stops at the breakpoint.
but it is not stopping there when i click the 'Excel Download' button.
How do I get the log file. I am very new to WCEM, please guide me.
I tried to debug the UI using Google chrome. it is giving me the following error.
