Full-slide hyperlinks after exporting to Flash

I have created a simple Keynote presentation (an image, some text, and then a transition to the next image/text slide) that I want to work as a Flash movie with hyperlinks. I want the entire slide to be a hyperlink, but can only get it to work on the text. (In other words, I want the viewer to be able to click anywhere on any slide during the presentation and be taken to a Web site for more information.)
I can make the images hyperlinks and get them to work in Keynote, but when I export to Flash, it does not retain the hyperlinks. If I just make the text hyperlinks, they stay. Still, I don't want the viewer to have to click on the text -- just anywhere in the video.
I believe the problem may be related to the automatic builds and transitions I have set up in Keynote, as a simple one-slide presentation with one image enabled as a hyperlink works just fine when viewed as a Flash video. But I need to keep the transitions.
I am viewing the Flash videos in Safari and Mozilla.
Does anybody know what is causing this?
Thanks for your help,

I just tested t his in Keynote 3 and it works fine. The only problem with FULL SLIDE links is you can't make it go to slide 2 without adding some sort of button ON TOP of the full slide link. Also, in my case at least, the Flash plug-in in Safari forced me to change my security settings to allow a flash movie to open a web page. Once I did that and restarted Safari, clicking my first slide opens the Apple page right in the same browser window as the flash movie. Opening the flash in the Stand alone Flash 8 player opens safari, then a new window with my web page.

  • Question Slide won't export to Flash CS4 (Captivate 4)

    I'm using Captivate 4 and Flash CS4 in Windows.  I have built a short and simple 5-question quiz in Captivate, and I need to export it to Flash CS4.
    I have tried both opening the .cp file onto a new Flash stage, and exporting to Flash from inside Captivate.  Sometimes, Flash crashes.  Mostly, I get this error:
    The following elements in your project have not been converted.  They are not supported by this importer.
    Question Slide
    Since I'm basically using Captivate 4 as a quiz generator for this project, this is definitely a showstopper.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    There is no suport for quzzing for "Export to Flash" feature in Captivate 4.
    You can either publish the quiz as a SWF and add it into flash or use learning interactions which you get as templates in flash for ELearning Suite.

  • 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.

  • Only 1 hyperlink per slide works after exporting as QT movie

    I'm trying to export a keynote presentation with several hyperlinks per slide as a quicktime move. Afterwards, only one hyperlink per slide will work????

    Welcome to the discussions, betheljb.
    The hyperlink that works, does it take you to the next slide?

  • Hyperlinks after exporting to web

    I created hyperlinks in my presentation, but when I've exported it for web (HTML) the hyperlinks don't work. What should I do?

    Taken from CR Help File:
    "PDF format is a page-based format. The exported documents are intended for printing and redistribution. PDF format will export both layout and formatting in a manner that is consistent with how the report looks on the Preview tab. PDF format embeds the TrueType fonts that appear in the document. (Non-TrueType fonts are not supported.) This export format does not support Microsoft font-linking technologyu2014which is used to provide support for some extended character sets such as Chinese HKCS. Therefore, the fonts used in the report must contain all of the required glyphs. These URI types are supported for hyperlinks: "http:", "https:" and "mailto:".
    Therefore your hyperlink is not working as u are using File type when cr only supports http https and mailto uri types.
    workaround: Export it to Word Doc format. In Word 2007 you can download a PDF export plug-in that will then have the link.

  • Why does my video become longer after exporting from Flash?

    I am a relative novice in Flash and working in CS5. When I test my file, it plays perfectly with the audio I embedded in my timeline. I tried a couple different compressions when exporting into a Quicktime file, but my video which is only 32 seconds long at 30 fps becomes 52 seconds long! The animation slows considerably, and yet the audio I embeded plays perfectly. Any advice as to how I can get it to match the "test movie" option so I can get this bad boy on YouTube?
    PLEASE and THANK YOU!

    Without knowing the overall innards of the timeline it's hard to suggest a strategy other than those already mentioned. A clean test worked fine so the audio doesn't seem to be the issue.
    Can you explain what is "buggy" about the output from the converters? Again, those should only be used if there's code involved to facilitate the animation. They essentially run the SWF and attempt to capture each frame as an image while stitching them together into a video. It's a fairly simple thing to do so it's hard to go wrong unless the hardware on the computer isn't keeping up with the SWF frame rate.
    Flash CS6 is not compaible (to my knowledge) with 10.8 so that works to your advantage. Perhaps you can try downloading a trial of Flash CS6 and see if your export issue goes away. It won't solve why CS5 is giving you issues but it does put the power in your hands to export it for now. If it still fails to export that's a pretty convincing argument that a gremlin on the timeline is monkeying around.

  • AVI or MP4 full of jitter after export

    Hi,
    I've been working on iMovie 11 v9.0.4 build for a couple of days now and it seems completely impossible to export to a stable final avi or mp4. The imported files are fine in HD and look perfect when viewed withing the project in iMovie. But whatever format I try to build or filetime it jitters like crazy, and I'm starting to go crazy!!!
    Any ideas are welcomed
    cheers,

    The song is at 44.1khz and some additional audio at the beginning and end is at 48khz. I exported the audio out through Final Cut separately at 48khz and then reimported that audio over the sequence and while it worked on the timeline, again upon export it drifted out of sync.
    Is there an easier way I can resample the audio in FCP? Or do I have to import it into Soundtrack? The sequence settings are at 48khz.
    Thanks.

  • Keynote hyperlinks don't work after exporting to html

    I'm working with Keynote in iWorks '08 on an iMac running OS 10.5.2. My hyperlinks (graphic and text) work perfectly running Keynote as a slide presentation, but not when I export it to an html format. What am I doing wrong here?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.
    Jeff
    PS: The hyperlinks do work after exporting in flash or pdf format, but our webmaster says I can't use those formats due to compliance issues.

    I noticed this as well. What I realized is that Keynote seems to just export the slide as a .jpg with a an .html file referencing the .jpg image. So in essence it is not creating an .html file of the slides contents but rather a reference to a picture of the slide. I haven't tried but maybe "send to" iweb and then "publishing to folder" will give you what you need. Not sure.

  • Indesign CS4 button flashes after exported to PDF and viewed in Acrobat Reader/Professional X

    Hey everyone,
    Greetings!
    I've encountered this odd problem when preparing my portfolio.
    I've created some 40 buttons in InDesign CS4 (all according to the official tutorial) to Show/Hide Fields (specificly images), and navigate through the pages.
    The buttons all have their own Normal and Rollover states, but no Click states.
    After exporting the file to PDF, I tested the buttons in Acrobat Reader 9 and Acrobat Pro 9, and both the actions and the states worked fine.
    BUT that's not the case with Acrobat Reader X or Acrobat Pro X.
    The actions are still there, showing the images and navigating, but the states are not!
    The buttons' rollover states just flashes when the mouse hover above them, and even in Normal state, they kept *blinking* randomly.
    Frustrated for a week.
    PS. I suspected and used a Indesign file with only one simple button to rule out the following:
    1. Overlapping buttons
    2. Slow processing due to large image size
    3. Mishandling of transparency
    At this moment I'm pretty sure it's an Acrobat thing...Help!

    Thanks Dave! I was in the middle of writing this when your post came in:
    Not sure if this will help anyone, but I changed the button fill color to white and it seemed to fix the flicker. I exported each state from indesign as a PDF and recreated the button from scratch. This still had the flicker. I'm guessing something strange is happening with the transparancy of the states.
    Glad to hear it's fixed!

  • 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!

  • After installing iTunes, Flash no longer exports .MOV format...

    Hi -
    I have been using Flash 8 to do animated titling for my podcasts.
    But after installing iTunes 7, Flash 8 will no longer export .MOV format. It tells me a Quicktime compenent cannot be found.
    Also, QuickTime Pro will not actually play Flash .SWF files. Not sure if this worked before, I never tried it. But it seems to be a QuickTime feature that doesn't work on my machine.
    Flash 8
    iTunes 7.0.0.70
    QuickTime Pro 7.1.3
    Any suggestiones or explanations?
    I really need to export my Flash animations to .MOV format. It's part of my work scheme. Workarounds cause loss of quality.
    Thanks,
    Dave Ferreira
    ([email protected])

    Recent security issues has had QuickTime 7.1.3 Player set Flash (inside .mov files) to "disabled".
    Any user can re-enable Flash inside .mov files by checking a box in the QuickTime Control Panel (PC) or System Preferences (Mac).
    QuickTime Player uses a much older version of Flash and only allows those "published" as version 5, or lower, be used.
    The security issues are real. The solution for those of us that use Flash (.swf) inside our QuickTime content is more complex.
    If a solution isn't reached between Apple and Adobe about a more modern use of Flash inside QuickTime files I plan on adding a text description (on my Web pages) for the steps to re-enable Flash functionality in my QuickTime files that use Flash.

  • Export after effects to flash?

    Hello,
    I am very new to both after effects and flash and need some help with a few things.
    I am trying to put a flash background on my website that will loop over and over.
    I created the file in after effects but understand that it is best to export to flash to keep file size down.
    I have tried exporting from after affects using F4L, FLV, and XFL and always seem to get a file size of 2-4 MB.
    My video is only 8 seconds long and I exported at half resolution so I am unsure why it is so large.
    How can I reduce the file size?
    When I import F4L and FLV to flash and then export as an SWF file, the file does not work on my website(nothing shows). It seems to only work when I import as an XFL and then export as an SWF.
    Also, how do I get the video to loop? Do I do this in flash or in the object tags in my website?
    If anyone could please help me out that would be much appreciated.
    Thanks and I look forward to your replies.

    How can I reduce the file size?
    You lower the data rate in the FLV output settings (possibly at the cost of quality going down).
    Do I do this in flash or in the object tags in my website?
    Whichever you prefer, but since you seem to want to produce a self-contained BG element and not a conventional player, you would preferably do it in the Flash code inside...
