Edit accordion widget

So far I have been creating my website in Adobe Muse which is great for me as I have no coding knowledge at all.
I created a blank page and inserted the accordion widget.
What I want is the widget to also be open and not having to click or press the title bars for them to expand. As far as I know there is no way to do this in Muse but what if I use the 'export to HTML' and edit the code directly in Dreamweaver?
There must be something I can edit here that will tell the widget not to only have one instance open at one time. Gyazo - d3d19d1ae55a8f2e7eb5d99c78d6c78e.png As you can see there is a lot of sheets that have been created and I am guessing one of them will control the accordion widget, but which one???
Could someone please help me & tell me what line where do I need to edit to achieve this.
I have uploaded the page to...300
Thanks
James

Cannot edit accordion widget or it won't appear in publish or preview

I'm using Adobe Presenter 9 with Windows 7 and PowerPoint 2010.
I'm trying to use the Accordion Interaction. I am able to create the accordion and insert it into my PPTX the first time (fresh presentation). If I continue to preview or publish at this point, I have no issues and the accordion works as designed.
When I go back to the PPTX and choose to manage the accordion interaction (edit), once I click okay after editing, I'm unable to preview or publish the accordion - it doesn't display. I have to delete the created presentation folder and the slide and start over again and hope that no mistakes are made.
I did notice that the tail of the accordion slide was sticking out of the bottom of my PPT. I thought this indicated that the accordion was still there, but maybe hid behind the template slide. I tried to 'bring to front' before publishing/previewing, but that didn't work.
Please help! I have a lot of presentations to do and don't want to be re-creating everytime a spelling error happens!
Thank you!

Hi
This seems to be a bug in Presenter.
We will try to fix it in the future release.
Could you please share a pptx and a published output where you see the issue.
Mail me at [email protected]
Thanks for reporting.

SPRY accordion widget IE8 ONLY issue

hello everybody,
i noticed a strange "jumpy" behavior while using the spry accordion widget -- this affects IE8 only (currently using 8.0.6001.18882 on vista), other browsers (including IE7 and IE8 forced into IE7 mode) work as expected. this issue seems to be related to the margin property of the accordion container...
not shure whether this behavior is related to IE rendering or the spry javascript code itself... anyway i made NO changes to the spry script (my version is 0.15, 1.6.1, which i believe to be most recent one).
the xhtml (strict) and css are perfectly valid (there might be some MINOR css hacks which are not related to the accordion itself). i do NOT use ANY padding on the inner container of the accordion (which would definetely make the spry js count the tween in odd way). the accordions (especially the main menu on the left) are little more complex, but they were built according to the spry widget document, found on the adobe spry website.
so, here it is -- check the accordion on the left side (the bug seems to happen almost always while opening/closing the last BLUE "section" of the accordion, please play with the accordion for a while to reproduce it -- while the accordion closes, it "loses" it's bottom margin (i guess), what's even more wierd, everything gets back to place after you move a mouse):
http://www.prazskematky.cz/home.php
PLEASE NOTICE: since the website is still under development and i'm using a IE meta tag to force it into IE7 rendering, to reproduce this behavior please be shure to switch IE engine to IE8 standards mode
well, we all now how IE handles css... so it's propably an IE bug -- anyway if you have encountered a similar issue of even better found a fix, please let know. (i don't consider a fix switching to another js library, i would like to use the spry, because of it's DW integration)
many thanks,
p.s.

Are you referring to what it looks like in Design view? If
so, that's
correct. Accordion panels have a fixed height. From memory, I
think it's
200px. However, if you test the page in a browser, you should
see a
scrollbar automatically generated on panels that have content
that
exceeds the height of the panel.
If you want flexible-height panels in the accordion, you need
to adjust
both the CSS and the script that initializes the accordion. I
have
covered all the details in my "Essential Guide to Dreamweaver
CS3" (and
the forthcoming CS4 edition). You can probably find online
tutorials as
well. Try a Google search for Spry flexible height accordion.
The accordion widget has been around since CS3, and it hasn't
changed in
CS4, so a Google search should bring up a lot of information.

Accordion Widget functionality

Hello. I need the accordion widget to activate on mouse over instead of mouse click. Is this possible? If not, is this a feature that will be added in the future?

Thanks for the response Kin!
I am setting up the links like you suggested, placing the
link inside the AccordionPanelTab, however, the problem isn't
getting the link to intercept the clicks, it's getting the link to
perform their default action. In the SpryAccordion.js file, on line
223, the default action of the tab's contents is being disabled.
This means that, regardless of whether or not there is a link
inside the tab, it will still act only as a tab (unless I'm missing
something). The code looks like this:
if (e.preventDefault) e.preventDefault();
If one adds:
e.preventDefault = false;
before the code on line 223, the problem is solved. The
problem with that solution is, if I go in and add that line of
code, I have to remember that change and where it was for all
future updates of the Spry widgets. So my question is, is there a
way to disable preventDefault so that default actions of, in this
case, links are enabled? Can this be done without editing the
Accordion Widget's Javascript file?

Accordion widget in document template

I'm trying to design my site using an accordion widget for my
left-side navigation bar: each tab is a product category and when
you click it, it shows all the subcategories. When I was working on
just the index page, the accordion worked fine every time I checked
it in Internet Explorer. But then I changed my document into a
template, making the left-side bar a non-editable region, and
created 5 or 6 pages off of the template. Now, when I'm in
dreamweaver looking at any of those 6 pages, I can click the
non-editable accordion tabs to see the content, but when I check it
in either IE or firefox, the accordion tabs will not open, all
except for the last tab on the bottom which opens just fine.
Does anybody have any idea why this would happen?
Is it possible to use an accordion widget as my left-side
navigation bar?
Thanks in advance!

There would be no a prioi reason that I can think of that
would prevent you
from having such things in your Template. Can you post a link
to one of
these pages?

Problem with Accordion Widget INSIDE Sliding Panel Widget

Hello,
perhaps I should not do this, but I nested an Accordion
Widget inside a Sliding Panels Widget:
- There are eight Panels.
- Each one contains a complete Accordion.
The sliding works fine, and so does the Accordion animation,
but the text inside the Accordion Panel Tabs won't move along, when
a tab is activated. I need to hover the mouse over the accordion to
make the panel texts appear again.
Of course, when I un-nest the widgets and move the Accordion
widget out of the Sliding Panel widget, everything is fine.
My question is:
- am I demanding "too much" by nesting the widgets?
- or should this basically work, and the problem arises from
rivalling scripts?
Here is a link:
Nested
widgets Test
The horizontal top menu will activate the sliding panels, but
as of now only the leftmost menu item contains an Accordion (I know
the CSS does not look nice yet).
Is there anything I can optimise to get this to work?
Thank you so much,
Greetings, Jensen
Edit: The problem does NOT occur in Firefox, but in
Safari.

Hi John,
That is the expected behavior if the "Overlap items below" is unchecked. Please refer to the following link http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/aish/2013-08-21_1947.png. If you don't want the page to wiggle up and down, please check the box shown in the screenshot.

Accordion widget content height

I'm using an accordion widget for the navigation of a site. Some of the sections have sub-sections and other do not.
Is it possible to remove the "content area" of an accordion widget but keep the label? I tried to set the height of the content area to "0" so the items below would not shift down but it appears that the minimum height for the content area is 1 pixel.
The page is posted at http://ekagra.com/dev/
If you click the 'Services' or 'Clients/Partners' links, you'll see the other labels shift down.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm using spry pre-release 1.6 in
CS3 so maybe it's set up different. When I drop the spry accordian
widget into my html it creates a css and js file to go with it. I
found that if I edit the js file to read
FixedPanelHeights = false;
that the panel will resize for the content. If left to the
default, true, the panel will have a scroll bar to the side for
overflow, which I don't like. Then with it set to false, I can
adjust all the rest thru the css file. Again, I'm a newbie when it
comes to this stuff so I'm proable doing something backwards, but
this seems to work. Thanks again.
Tommy

In your email, please confirm that you are a Dreamweaver CS4 user, that you have never inserted a Spry Accordion, and that you are comfortable working with and editing CSS.
Thanks!

I added an accordion widget and it works on one site page while same code won't work on another page.
It works here: http://dev.triptocollege.org/educator/Things-I-Should-Be-Doing-Now/K-5th-Grades.aspx
Does not work here: http://dev.triptocollege.org/educator/Things-I-Should-Be-Doing-Now.aspx
Yet both pages have identical code (with absolute links to the CSS and JS files).
Can anyone shed some light on a solution?

Can you make a composition widget act like an accordion widget?

Is it possible to make a composition widget act like an accordion widget? The reason I ask is because the styling that I can do inside of a composition widget is much more than that of a accordion widget which is just a simple text frame, makes it impossible to add images/icons where I would like to. The only work around to this is to make a .psd file with my states already predefined in it, however If I have to resize the widget for any reason I then have to go and edit the psd file vs just simple moving the items in muse.

Hi
How exactly you are trying to style the text or image ?
You can insert any object or widget in accordion , add image or draw a rectangle with different states defined. You can resize while placing the image etc.
If this is not you are looking for , then please elaborate as what specific changes you are looking for the object in accordion.
Composition and Accordion , both are different and works differently but you can use accordion itself and make the changes to text or image anything inserted in the container.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Error When Adding Audio to Accordion Widget

I am trying to utilize the accordion widget that comes with Adobe Captivate 7. In the Widget Properties, you can add audio to the description under each tab. When I go to select a narrated audio file (that was recorded using Adobe Captivate) from the library, I get this error message stating I have "selected the wrong file type...". Has anyone encountered this? What other audio file types can be added?

I have similar bizarre behvior with the accordion widget.
I record my audio in Adobe Audition and then import to Captivate. However, when I did this with the widget the audio did not work. I discovered that if I edit the audio in the library, after I import it, it no longer works in the widget. Editing audio works fine everywhere else in Captivate.
Even more bizarre, I edited an MP3 in Audition, that had been working in the widget. I deleted the current, working, audio from the widget option, then imported the new one, but got the error This is the Wrong File Type. This happened on multiple edited MP3 files.
So, I went back to Audition, and rather than saving the edited MP3, I re-exported it to another MP3 file, and this one imports into the widget.

Problem with accordion widget flashing open and shut when page loads

why is it that my accordion widget flashes open and shut when the page is loading (see http://vincentballmusewebsite2013test.businesscatalyst.com/digital-illustration.html#.UVDr Ehx7JyII) have tried everything to solve this, and Adobes customer service is terrible they don't get back to you when they say they will.
Please help me someone,
Thanks

Thank you Zak for your help, I spent 5 hours going round in circles trying to fix that problem and that's all I needed to hear, a bit of honesty and integrity.and yes, Adobes terrible customer service has still not got back to after promising 2 level technical support to contact me last Monday, I wish there'd keep their promise
Pamela, did you try my test website or my own website and if so my own has now no accordion widget on it and my test website may need you to try loading a few times to see if it really works or not, sometimes it does actually work even on a pc but most times not.
thanks for you help too.

Open an accordion widget in the closed state?

I have searched the forums but have yet to find a resolution
for this issue. I am using an accordion widget and would like for
all of my panels to appear closed when the page initially loads.
Only once the user has clicked the tab do I want the panels to
open. Any suggestions that do not require me to buy a separate plug
in? Thanks.

This is directly from the Adobe documentation:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/accordion/AccordionSample.html#AllPanelsCl osed
However, one thing to keep in mind is that this is assuming
that you are using the 1.6.1 update (as that is what the references
refer to). If you have never updated your Spry this would be a good
opportunity to do so. The below is the to the official Spry
homepage. There you will find the update package which includes
some samples and an Extension. Install the extension and restart
DW. Then under the Sites menu you will see a new option to update
Spry. Run that script and your Spry will be updated. Also on that
homepage is a link to the official Spry forums:

Is there a way to force a user to view all of Accordion Widget?

Is there a way to force a user to read, or at least view,
all sections of the Accordion Widget? We want to make sure the learner reads
all of the material before advancing to the next slide. Is there a way to do
this? I have searched all over, but I have been unable to find.

No way. This is a static learning interaction, no event that could be used eventually. Personally I prefer offering reading material that is engaging over looking for a way to push the learner to look (reading doesn't mean he understands or grabs it) at all the stuff. But that is my teacher's past, if student doesn't read your stuff, something is wrong with the stuff, not with the student.
If you have to force, you'll have to find another way than the accordion interaction .

How do I add a new panel to the accordion widget in-between two others (NOT at the end)

In the accordion widget, the + button at the bottom adds a new panel to the end. I have a series of panels that are in alpha-sort and need to add a new panel in the middle... I can't figure out how to do it without re-doing the whole thing. is there a way to do this?

Gah! Thanks Mac.
That was the first thing I tried! I must not have had the right level selected. It's been driving me batty, but I've got it now.
