Exporting to flash 8 makes the slides streched

Hi,
I am not a flash expert, but i need to fix some things in
actionscript before publishing the stuff online. so i cant directly
use the captivate created flash files. If i export the material to
flash the slides are streched and off center ( i see the top left
corner. )
Can anyone help me explain what happened and how i can fix
it?
Thanks,
Wouter

OK, I'm about at my wits end with this issue and it's only getting worse! Yesterday I did unistalls and reinstalls of both Flash and Captivate and made sure that I the proper Captivate A.S. folders copied to the Flash Classes folder...still no dice.
I then went to IT and asked for a loaner laptop to install both on to see if it might be my PC that's the problem...installed both on the laptop and export the Captivate File to Flash and published it...the audio worked! I was pumped. So went back to my PC and tried again and it didn't work. I then brought the new .FLA over from the laptop and it plays with audio fine on my PC. However the exact same Captivate project exported to Flash on my PC doesn't play the audio. I have a TON of captivate .SWFs that I need to add actions to, so if anyone can offer (even possible) solutions, I'd be grateful! Thanks!

Since downloading the 2013 Keynote upgrade, the slide image size on handouts with 3 slides per page option is very small. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping 3 slides per page lines?

With the new Keynote upgrade (version 6.1), the slide image size on handouts is very small, which makes it difficult to read slide content when compiling lecture notes for students. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping to a format of 3 slides per page with lines?

A number of posts have reported the same issue, two workarounds:
1
check the paper handling options or equivalent in your print dialogue box and set to scale to fit
2
in the Keynote option, in the dropdown menu in the Print section, select Individual Slides
then choose Layout, and set the number of pages, when printed you will have multiple pages on a single sheet.

How to make the slider longer?

Hi,
I want to add a slider in my code, but the slider is too short to choose the number.
Could anyone tell me how to make it? Thank you!
The following is my code.
slider1.setMin(0);
slider1.setMax(100);
slider1.setValue(10);
slider1.setShowTickLabels(true);
slider1.setShowTickMarks(true);
slider1.setMajorTickUnit(10);
slider1.setMinorTickCount(10);
slider1.setBlockIncrement(1);
slider1.setLayoutX(50);
slider1.setLayoutY(20);

This seems fine to me. Can you explain more what the problem is you are seeing? If you want the slider to be longer, you can manually size it (set the prefWidth, as in the following example). If that is indeed the problem, then I would suggest you look into one of the layout panes shipped with the platform which will help with making sure it is resized as you would expect.

        slider1.setPrefWidth(400);
        root.getChildren().add(slider1);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();

How can I make the slide play automatically?

My project does not start automatically, I need to click on the play of the taskbar. The slide contains an animation in .aom I've done everything and I can not configure automatic start.

Thanks you Lilybiri, in the web my project play automatic, but in mobile devices dont. And a play butom apear out of no where in de center of the slide.

How do I make the slide "pause" when there are multiple buttons present?

I'm creating a selection slide that will allow the user to click button 1, 2, 3 or 4 to jump to the first slide of a topic group or to click button 5 to exit. The slide should just "stop" until any of the buttons are clicked. Unfortunately, the slide ALWAYS goes to the jump for button 1 without waiting for any action.
I've tried adding an invisible click box and an invisible text field with no success.
What am I missing or doing incorrectly?
Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Hi there
Yep, I can click the image and it scales back up.
You need to look at the properties for your button objects. I can easily see on the timeline that you have apparently cleared the pause point for each of them. If they had a pause point, they might look like this:

Export to flash swf from Slide Show module

If I work on a stunning slide show, with music et al, It would be perfect if I can export to a swf file and put it on a web site or left to clients on a CD.
Otherwise, as is now, I have to work twice: create a slide show and then a web flash site...

There is nothing you are doingt wrong, the web people need to check their Flash stuff, most importantly realyl include al lthe files you provide them with. there's a reason why it spits out 4 files...

Can I make the slide automatically move on the the next page?

Like I have media on a keynote presentation and 3 seconds after it finishes I want it to move on to the next slide automatically. Is this possible?
Cheers.

No one can help???

Keynote transitions: if I know the 'exact' duration based on audio chapter markers, how do I make the slide duration exact?

I have a listing in Numbers of the chapter marker start times (in an audio file from garage band).
So a simple calc should give me the intervals ... yes?
But it seems a 'dissolve' or a 'magic move' requires some sort of juggle between a delay and the transition time to make it sync.

True. Thanks BW. Was searching for a faster way to sync the timing of guitar fretboard animation frames to original soundtracks ... to a 16 x 9 movie.
Keynote actually does a good job of recording mouse click (right arrow) intervals when the cut is clean (no magic move or dissolve etc) with the narration record function but there was a dead end of attempts prior to that fork in the road trying to figure out the strange 'double it and minus it' formula for bridging the graphic smoothly with intervals (it does look better with dissolve) but there doesn't seem to be a consistent way to get it exact - as you say.
The killer app (for easily tuning clips in iMovie) would be a stopwatch (or something) that recorded a text file of intervals (in decimal) based on mouse clicks pressed while tapping away to a sound track. Garageband can deliver ... sort of ... and with some processing but ... the journey continues. Thanks again.

Export to Flash and keep the file size small!

Clearly Keynote has a major bug when exporting to Flash. The files become very large, about 10x larger then the combined size of the JPEG's inserted. Earlier today I discovered how to get around this issue, albeit a far from perfect solution. Simply open each picture used in Photoshop and use the "save for web" menu. Save each image as GIF, 128 colors and rebuild the Keynote presentation. Although a color rich picture saved as GIF versus a reasonable compressed JPEG is x 3 or x 4 times larger the end result when exporting the Keynote to Flash is substantially smaller. Apparently Keynote exports to Flash without adding size when GIF's are used. Apple, please fix this "JPEG export" bug!

Hi Gopal,
You can get the components in your internal table using the below code-
lo_struc_descr ?= cl_abap_typedescr=>describe_by_data( <fs_line> ).
    lt_components = lo_struc_descr->get_components( ).
* Insert the component names in the start of the file
    LOOP AT lt_components INTO ls_components.
      IF lv_string IS INITIAL.
        lv_string = ls_components-name.
      ELSE.
        CONCATENATE lv_string ls_components-name INTO lv_string
        SEPARATED BY cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
Here <fs_line> is a work area. Basically we are getting all the fields in the internal table and writing their names in the start of the file.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Ravi

Mouse clicks and path not exporting to flash

Hey Guys, I've just started using Captivate v5 and all seems to work fine but when I export to Flash CS5, the mouse animates as linear and the click effect doesn't appear. If I preview from captivate the paths and clicks are there. If I click the mouse icon on the slides, they are all set to flash blue circle and straight pointer path is unchecked. The slides do not contain live film either, just screenshots. If I go into the movie in flash, the tween is there but no motion path. Any ideas? Thanks

Yeah, when I export to flash it opens the doc as AS3. Also, I noticed the default click effect does work, but when I change to any of the custom ones it gets ignored by flash.

Export in Flash MX works Flash 8 crashes

I have Flash 8 professional and I admit I am very much a
beginner at flash.
I have taken a basic flash class so I know a few things.
I got a template from template monster. I need to change some
things about the template for my employer’s needs.
My trouble comes when I export the site. The progress bar
pops up and quickly disappears. Then Flash 8 proceeds to crash.
The weird thing is that I have a friend that still has Flash
MX and I got him to try to export the site. It worked fine for him.
If I try the exact same file in Flash 8 it crashes.
I don’t have Flash MX and I don’t think I can get
it. Does anybody have any ideas why a site that exports in Flash MX
does not export in Flash 8?
Thanks in advance for any information.

Hey
Rick, you only made one mistake (but for you even that is
rare). Greg said
"with the tweens intact" ... and you read
"... when tweens interact.".
I'm sure you'll agree that with the clarification, it's not
confusing except the extent to which Greg expects or desires that
movement of objects - including "transitions"? - in the original
Captivate project be preserved after bringing it into Flash 8. As
far as CP1 - to - CP2 - to Flash 8 is concerned, CP1 projects seem
to me to be converted very well. And moving the (now CP2) project
conversion into Flash 8, there is little that won't come along
nicely.
Yes, Greg, including the tweens, which are preserved for the
objects I looked at specifically ... but the right person to answer
that question might be Mark (Fletcher) instead of myself. I
imported CP movies to Flash 8 only to see if it was being done
without the previous loss of non-supported elements (etc.) but I
have no intention of actually working with my Captivate projects
inside the Flash environment - during beta, now, or ever. I just
feel that the power of Captivate is sufficient for my purposes, and
importing it to Flash 8 would accomplish little except to put the
horse in hen-house. (That makes perfect sense to me, and is greatly
humorous as well; but if you don't "get it", I don't think I can

CS4 exporting and reduction of the file size

Hello,
I'm new to the Premiere pro. I'm trying to export the movie, which as a final product will be uploaded on the Web for the employees to download it on their computers.
It is a similar situation as TreeHugger98 posted on: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2004696
I had 3 WMV recordings of a Microsoft Live Meeting event - a conference call, with a bunch of PowerPoint slides and the audio of the presentation/discussion. Each about 25MB and 2 fps, 704 x 528, 16000 Hz - 16 bit, Mono.
I have selected the settings for the project: (I'm in US) 720 x 480, 29.97 fps, 32000Hz, stereo, and scaled to the size.
I combined a few bits and pieces in one, so the final movie is 2 hrs long. I need to have a reasonable size output, so the file has to be downloadable, however no matter what settings I tried - the size is enormous, not to mention the rendering time. It doesn't have to be saved for both platforms - apart from designers, all employee have PC, so do I.
Could anyone help?
Thanks in advance

robodog2,
Thank you for answering - sometime I feel that all you guys are being bored with getting one question over and over, but I assure you your answers are being highly appreciating by newcomers such I myself.
I'm new to the Premiere pro. I'm trying to export the movie, which as a final product will be uploaded on the Web for the employees to download it on their computers.
You just need to put a file up on the web, not a "playing " movie ? So they download the file ? - YES, this is what I meant, (however I tried to publish the mpg4, just to see what I would get).
I had 3 WMV recordings of a Microsoft Live Meeting event - a conference call, with a bunch of PowerPoint slides and the audio of the presentation/discussion. Each about 25MB and 2 fps, 704 x 528, 16000 Hz - 16 bit, Mono.
this isnt very specific...like how many bytes did you start out with to begin with for each source ( asset ). wmv is very compressed and it really isnt perfect for "editing" as it is a "delivery" format...for viewing, not editing...
Regardless, if you export that to anything that isnt really compressed it will probably be a larger "byte count" than you started with, because wmv is very compressed to begin with... know what I mean ???
2 hours of avi type 2 SD ( standard definition 720x480 ) is roughly 26 GIGABYTES in byte count....
These are the details of the files I started out with: exactly the size were: 20MB, 25MB and 24MB, all of them 2 fps, 704 x 528, 16000 Hz - 16 bit, Mono. I have read about the compression, but this is very valuable information: what file type would be perfect for editing then?
I have selected the settings for the project: (I'm in US) 720 x 480, 29.97 fps, 32000Hz, stereo, and scaled to the size.
without knowing what you had to begin with who knows what this project setting did...but basically you must match your assets specs with the project settings....
Which are what, in this example...? I went trough all the available settings and I couldn't decided which would be the best. I was only sure, that it had to be NTSC aspect ratio 4:3.
I combined a few bits and pieces in one, so the final movie is 2 hrs long. I need to have a reasonable size output, so the file has to be downloadable, however no matter what settings I tried - the size is enormous, not to mention the rendering time. It doesn't have to be saved for both platforms - apart from designers, all employee have PC, so do I.
"no matter what settings I tried " doesnt tell me anything really...I have no idea what you tried ....please be more specific about this....and what the parameters of your final product have to be...in other words, can you downsize the product a little bit ? Make it smaller than 720x480 ?
What do the people who get this have to do with it ?? Just look at it ? So maybe it doesn't have to be 720x480....making it smaller on the export side would make the byte count smaller and still be OK to view on a computer.
I have tried .mov,. mpg4 and back to .wmv again. I can go smaller than 780x480, unfortunately because of the compression the video is not very good quality to start with. The solution would be to use original presentation, save each slide separately an import to the project. Do you recommend doing that?
Thank you,

Error in export to Flash MX 2004

Hi,
While exporting to Flash MX 2004 it shows an dialogue box "
To export a Captivate movie to flash, you should have Macromedia
Flash MX 2004 installed."
Even though I've Flash MX 2004 already installed on my
machine, this error shows. How can I get an FLA output from
Captivate ?
FYI: I am making a screen capture movie like elearning
course.

Menu Buttons won't work after exporting to flash

This is a strange problem, and I can't seem to figure it out.
I've created a demo DVD with my work on it. The DVD navigates and works fine. It has a "First Play" and the end action to the first play is the main menu. There are 6 buttons on the main menu. 2 Buttons link to 2 other menus which have my work broke down by category. 3 buttons link to 3 different and separate timelines, like a graphic montage, replay the first play, and play all. Then the last button just links to my contact info. It all works fine on a DVD export.
When I export to flash, once the first play finishes playing, and the end action is triggered (which is to go to the main menu) none of the buttons will work on the main menu page. If reload the page, and while the first play is playing, I skip first play by going to the main menu (by clicking on the flash button for main menu), the buttons on the main menu will work fine. But once I go to one of the sub-category menus and play something, then click on the "Back to Main Menu Button", it won't work. I am stuck on that sub-menu.
Same thing happens if, on the main menu page, I click on "graphic montage". When the graphic montage timeline plays all the way through from start to finish, the end action takes me back to the main menu, but none of the buttons on the main menu button work. But if I interrupt the "graphic montage" by clicking on the main menu flash button, and go back to the main menu, then the buttons on the main menu work fine. This problem only seems to happen when I click a button and the timeline play in it's entirety. If I interrupt the timeline (say like half-way through) the buttons on the menus will work fine.
I hope this all makes sense. It's hard to explain. But if you do understand what I'm trying to say, any help would be grateful.
Thanks. Tom

I'm in the same boat as Thomas.
I've created a DVD w/ 1 Main Menu & 1 Sub Menu.
Main = Chapter Select & Play All. (both links work)
Sub = 9 links to Chapter Points & Main Menu. (NO links work)
I only have this problem when I export to Flash.
Everything seems to be fine when I preview or create a DVD.
I have tried with Firefox, InternetExplorer, & Safari; both locally and loaded to the server.
It is currently sitting at: www.media.bodyshoptv.com/CCVIP_Orientation

How to make the dblink and what is the use of this

plz any body tell me "how to make the dblink and what is the use of this"
sujit

Do you understand how to make the Slider work using code to read its value? You will need to look into that in order to do this.
What you can do is have the yello rectangle be a movieclip that sits over the red rectangle and use the Slider to control the yellow rectangle's alpha property from 0 to 1. That way the yellow will gradually fade as you slide.
What you will then need to do is figure out how to make the number of dots that appear reduce from 15 to 8 over the same range of the slider. You need to use the fractional value from the slider to decide how many dots either appear or do not appear.
You should not start new postings for the same topics that you arlready have postings for. Doing so in the future might result in them being removed.
