Flash button that controls breeze play button
Is it possible to create a flash button that is scripted to
control the play and pause button on the breeze playbar? What I am
looking for is a way to have a button that would start a slide
again after it has stopped and is waiting for the user to start
again.
Hi!
If you want to control the viewer with a Flash button you've
embedded in a powerpoint slide (prior to using presenter to convert
it) try this:
(1) Make your button in Flash, and add this Actionscript to
the first slide (replace [btnName] with the name of your button
instance:
btnName.onRelease = function () {
_root.m_controlBar.m_slideNextBtn._onRelease();
(2) Insert your button's swf in the PPT presentation and
compile with Presenter. Now, when the user clicks the button, it
will simulate pressing the "next slide" button in the viewer's
control bar.
Here are some of the other button names; to use these
instead, just replace "m_slideNextBtn" in the above code:
Play/pause button "m_playBtn"
Next slide button "m_slideNextBtn"
Previous slide button "m_slideBackBtn"
View changer button "m_viewChangeBtn"
Attachment Button "m_attachmentsBtn"
Volume Button "m_volumeBtn"
Hope that helps!

Help with assignment- buttons that control movie clips
I am pretty new to flash and my professor gave us an assignment with little help or tutorials.
He wants us to create a SWF that features a house and it's front yard and two buttons.
One button that says Sunrise, and one that says Sunset.
When I push the sunrise button, the sun needs to rise above the house and stay there. When I push the Sunset button, it needs to set- and then a ufo needs to land on the lawn.
So i think I have a pretty good grasp on the assignment, but the actionscript is throwing me off. How can I make buttons that will control the sun movie clip to rise- stay above the house, and then set? The ufo is a whole new matter. The sunset button should make the sun lower and then a ufo land on the lawn.
Please help explain/link me to the proper tutorials. One thing that i'm worried about is that the sun will rise- and then stay above the house even if i click the sunset button.
Your help is greatly appreciated.Well i can think of a few ways to do this.
Depending on what you have been taught so far you should be able to do this if you know how to make a button, a movie clip, and the basic script for the timeline. ie. play,stop, gotoandplay etc.
I understand you have been set a task and you want the answer straight away. But i doubt he would have given you anything you couldn't handle. Also I learnt more from trial and error and searching the net than from most of my teachers at coll and uni, It's frustrating i know, but the buzz you get when you finally crack it is amazing. Stick in there!
That being said i remember the panic I suffered and like to help so here's a thought:
You could just have the 2 buttons play a basic movie clip. The sky could rotate one way to make the sun rise and add a "stop" in the actions to make it stay there, and to the left to sunset with both images together but not being shown all the time by using a mask. You could even add in the ufo to the clip but this would only work if you added an extra part to the movie so that when the ufo has landed it flys out again and then begins to rotate the sun and moon again. ( buttons would be dissabled during the play modes to avoid chaos) This is just a quick thought. I'm sure there are several ways of doing this depending on how fancy it needs to be.
If your teacher really has given you no notes on buttons,movieclips and actionscript i would sujest Adobe TV. Nice videos that explain step by step. OR try downloading a tutorial file with buttons and movie clips and look at the coding they use in the file. Thats how i have learnt most of it since finishing Uni.
Good Luck

Need ONE Button That Controls Audio/Caption for Multiple Movies
Captiate Version: 3
Flash Version: 9
We created an online course using Captivate 3. The shell is HTML and the captivate (.swf) is embeded to show the content. Because the content inside the captivate movies were too large we had to break up the course into separate pages for loading purposes.
For example:
HTML Page Captivate File
page001.html page001.swf
page003.html page003.swf
page004.html page004.swf
Now we need a way to use ONE Button to control the Audio/Caption for ALL the movies. The button would be included seperately in the HTML shell along with Captivate movie.
Is this possible? If so please let us know in detail how?
We're open to other ideas. We are somewhat familar with using Captivate variables ect is required.You can control Captivate SWFs via JavaScript using the CaptivateController. It allows you to control all the standard Captivate variables from HTML.

How to create buttons that control left and right scroll?
I would like to know if there is a way to create two buttons, each on the left and right hand sides of the screen, that would control the horizontal (x-axis) scroll of my website. I've built two image buttons that link to anchors located on the left and righthand edges of the page, but this does not achieve the funtionality I'm looking for. I would like each button to scroll incrementally every time it is pressed.
Is this possible in Muse?There are no facing pages in Pages 5.

How do i create a button that will always play my flv, not just once?
I'm currently using captivate 5.5 and need to use a button to load my flv. That button works fine and when the flv finishes it returns me back to the slide with the button on, the problem is the button no longer works when you press it again if you want to see the flv again...help! My flv is set up to not be visible as I want it to be hidden until the button is pressed as it cover my entire slide when it loads. I set it to run for the duration of the clip so it's great when it returns me to my slide but then the button won't make it visible again when you press it. I tried setting the button to enable after show hoping it would reset the button but that doesn't work...as you can see I only know the basics of Captivate!
The issue may be due to the fact that once you've clicked the button its Success criteria has been used. This can be reset by re-entering the slide where the button is located.
So in order to have your video play multiple times, you may need to use a different strategy than your current one. You could try placing the video on a different slide to your button. Set the button click to jump to that slide, and once the video has finished playing, set the OnSlideExit action to jump back to the slide with the button. That way your button gets reset each time ready for another click to launch the video slide. -
How to use one boolean button to control many boolean buttons?
I would like to create a LabView control interface with boolean buttons.
As my attachment picture shown, there are four boolean buttons.
The button1 is the main power, if I press ON button1, other three
buttons also turned to ON at the same time.
How do I build up the LabView program in the block diagram?
What should I do???

booleans.bmp 722 KBControls and indicators function as variables. In a text based language, you could just write the name of the variable again. In LV, since each control only has one terminal, you need local variables to do this. To create a local variable, right click on the control and from the popup menu select Create>>Local Variable. You can have a local as read or write. Create a local for each of the buttons and wire the data coming out of the first button into the locals.
There is something that is very important to understand here - when you use locals, you can disrupt the dataflow nature of LV and create race conditions. For example - if, after fixing your code, you were to click on one of the buttons, to set it to F, it would immediately be set back to T by the running code. This can be very dangerous. Also, I see you're using the continuous run mode. You should use a loop instead. Try looking for some LV by searching google for "Labview tutorials. Also, here's one you can start with.

Creating interactive swf files that contain flash files that don't play once loaded on server
I am creating an interactive swf file that contains a flash movie f4v file and when I preview the page in ID it plays, but once I export the InDesign file to swf, insert that on a html page using Dreamweaver (so I can send a link and not a file out) the movie doesn't play, just the first frame of the clip. I have uploaded the f4v file to our server and linked in the original ID file and it still doesn't play. Any suggestions or similar issues?
I have left the page up for quite a while to see if it is just taking longer to load that clip and that doesn't seem to be it. I am just stumped and honestly not knowledgable on how websites and servers work - just know how to get my documents up so I can send links.

Controlling Sound Within Buttons
I have just recently purchased Adobe Flash CS5 and have read through the entire "Classroom In A Book" for Adobe Flash CS4 Professional. However, the book never went into much detail into what I am trying to do.
I'm creating a website for me and my fiance because we have formed a classical guitar and flute duo and want to exhibit some of our recordings. I have the buttons for the recordings created with their corresponding sound file. However, I cannot figure out how to stop the file when I click on another button recording; if I click all buttons, all sound files just keep playing simultaneously.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks Everyone!Thanks for your response kglad!
It has been quite a while since I have worked with Flash and I'm definitely new to ActionScript, so I don't really have any clue about the code that you posted.
The sounds have not been placed in the timeline, but rather are referenced in the code. There are only four buttons that play their corresponding files. If I click one button, that sound file plays, but if I click another button, that sound file plays, but the previous sound file continues to play. So if I end up clicking all four buttons, I have four sound files all playing at the same time.
How can I get the previous sound file to stop when I click on a new button.
Thanks again kglad for your response and any more help would be appreciated! -
The play button on HTML5 video doesn't work, however the play option in the context menu does
I have embedded a video using HTML5 using the mp4, webm, and ogg formats.
In Firefox the video poster displays as do the native controls. When the video is clicked on (either on the poster or the play button on the controls) the poster disappears to be replaced with the first frame of the video. However the video then fails to play.
If i right click over the video and select play it plays fine, similarly if i then click the pause button it pauses, the play button still does not work though.
The video plays in all other browsers that i have tested in without an issue.Hi Obverse,
Thank you for contacting support. To better understand how the video is embedded, could you please post a link to the video or an example of where the HTML play button does not play a video? -

Flash Button In Captivate To Control Breeze Presenter
Hello everyone,
I would like to create a button in flash that once click,
will automatically advance a slide in the Breeze Presenter. This
button will be in a Captivate simulation that I have. The way my
simulation works is that the user has to click on a start button
(created in flash) in the Breeze Presenter, and the simulation is
opened in a new, full screen window. Once the simulation has
completed, I would like to be able to have the user click a "Close"
button, and then have the movie close, and the Brezze Presenter go
onto the next slide. Any help at all would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks
DougDoug,
Sorry if I'm coming into this discussion late and I don't
have time right now to look through it from the start. Is a new
window acceptable? Meaning, when the user clicks on the button in
the Breeze presentation, is it okay if a new browser window opens?
If that's the case, then you should be able to just create a button
(it's been a while since I looked at Captivate so I'm not sure if
you can do it in there or not, but at the very least you could do
it in Flash) that opens up a new blank window and accesses the URL
with the captivate movie.
Actually, I'm glad you asked this, because it gives me
something to consider when I start developing my next round of
elearning courses. I hate the idea of embedding captivates into
powerpoint. This alleviates you from needing to do so, and also
alleviates the size restrictions of ppt:
Upload the captivate-generated swf to the Breeze content
area. You'll need to remember to set permissions appropriately.
Then just copy the URL for that captivate swf and call it via your
button. In flash the button code would look like this:
myButton_btn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("
http://mybreezeserver.com/mySWF",
"_blank");
If you want to control the appearance of the browser/page
appearance, you'll need to upload the captivate-generated swf (as
described above) along with the calling html file. You do this by
zipping them up together into a zip file and naming the html file:
index.htm. As long as they're zipped up together then Breeze will
be keep the pathing correct for you.
Also, you mention wanting to close the captivate window. I'm
not sure exactly how this is done, but I'm sure at the very least
you could do it via javascript by using the zipped up method above
- from the Breeze presentation just call the index.htm file, which
calls the swf. Then at the end of the cp swf, have a button that
calls a "browser close" command via javascript. I'm not familiar
with javascript and have admittedly never used this, so I may be
off. Hopefully Marc or someone can chime in.
Of course, if a new blank window is unacceptable to you, then
my suggestions are out the window (no pun intended!). : )
