GoLive 8 Image Preloader Action

I've set all my images to preload with the preloader action. It doesn't appear to work on the latest versions of Safari and Explorer. Are head actions no longer working on these browsers? I've gone through it several times and I'm sure I have it set up correctly.

If I'm guessing correctly...
Your browser is loading the images of your body at the same time as the head action, so you see them load rather than have a black page that "pops" up after the head action loads. I'm guessing you want the "all black then pop, the page is there"?
FWIW, that really isn't what the pre-load action is for. It is more for loading images that will appear later. Think of things like "click to enlarge" or rollovers.
While the rest of the page loads (and the viewer starts viewing), the pre-loader will throw those images to your cache. When the viewer clicks the "click to enlarge" or mouses over the rollover (as long as the page is fully loaded) there will be no delay in the loading of the new image, since it's already in the cache. They won't see the image progressively load, it will just "pop" in place.

JavaFX - Image preloading problem

Hi,
I try to use ImageView and face some problems with image preloading.
Here is the code related to the component that has problems. The component extends CustomNode.
in class attributes declaration:
var imgNodes: ImageView[];
// list of url of images to display
public-init var imgs: String[];
in create function:
for(indice in [0..batch]){
var view= ImageView{
fitWidth:100
fitHeight:100
translateX: (110 * indice)
preserveRatio: true
cursor: Cursor.HAND
insert view into imgNodes;
on an image loading function:
for(indice in [0..batch]){
imgNodes[indice].image = Image{
width: 100
height: 100
url: imgs[firstItem+indice]
preserveRatio: true
backgroundLoading: true
with backgroundLoading set to true, the images are not displayed. When setting it to false, the images appear. So the urls passed to Image are ok.
If I display the fields error and progress of the Image components, both have the value 0.
I have other components that use preloading and they are working great before showing the problematic component. After, preloading does not work anymore.
It looks like as if the thread used to preload images is blocked.
Can anyone help me with it?
Thanks in advance for your help
Thomas

I'm not shure but i think the only group component wich is updated after insert or delete is a Group, so there is the same problem with V/HBox.
Then this code work for me

Automatically Replacing Images Without Losing Previous Image's Action

I've created updated versions of some images in a Keynote presentation, but the images they replace have actions assigned to them. Is it possible to update a pre-existing image so the updated version retains any actions?

You have two options for this. The best option is to define the image as a media placeholder. Go to Format>Advanced>Define as Media Placeholder. Then you can change images and keep all actions.
The other option is if you have saved your Keynote as a package, you can right click the icon and choose show package contents. Then make sure the new images are the exact same name as the ones you wish to change and drag them into the folder. You be asked if you want to replace the file already named --- and click yes. Keynote will then change the old picture with the new one. I would only use this option if you are changing a lot of images at once and it is too time consuming to use the other method.

Resizing text and images with actions and keeping it resized for the next slides, how to?

Hello everybody,
I searched over the net and in this support section for a solution to my problem, but i didnt find any, so...here I am asking you experts.
Through a particular use of different actions I make a logo "compose" in the first slide of my presentation (the logo is composed by text and images that interact), then in the second slide i make it resize so it goes 50% of its size and moves down like a TV logo, in the corner of the slide, and I want it to stay there for all the lenght of the presentation.
It might be a stupid problem, but I didnt understand how to keep it there, 50% of its size and always in that position. If i duplicate the slide I obviously duplicate the 100%-size-logo, not its 50%-size-version, and if i shrink it in order to make it be 50% of its size the text size doesnt shrink so i have to change the text size manually, but the visual effect is imperfect.
Lets summarize:
slide 1: text appears, image appears, the text and the image move and "compose" the logo
slide 2: the complete logo reduces its size to 50% and moves in the lower corner of the presentation, in the place I want it to be for, lets say, 20 slides
slide 3: i want to have this logo already reduced in size and in its position, in the right lower corner, but if i try to group the different parts of the composed logo and i try to squeeze them the font doesnt change its size, I only squeeze the area that the text occupies.
Some help please guys?
Thanks in advance,
Dom-
(add: the problem is kind of similar to this: https://discussions.apple.com/message/9179367#9179367 . the idea of making a slide that contains the logo and text in the exact positions they would be after the move and scale actions is good and that was my first attempt, the probem is that it looks impossible to me to create a second "little" version of the logo that looks exactly the same of the first one that i reduced, so i hope there is some way to tell the app to use "the first logo, only resized the way i want", and thats the point where the problem with the size of the text comes out)

Hi pritam,
The “maintain proportions of window for different monitor
resolutions” property will maintain the proportional size of the front panel
(its x and y sizes) when opened in a different resolution. The front panel
objects will not be resized and will appear larger (and may not fit inside the
front panel) when saved in a higher resolution, and moved to a lower
resolution. You can use the “Keep window proportions” property to achieve the
same results.
To have both the front panel dimensions and front panel
controls scale, you need to have both the above property and the “scale all
objects on front panel as the window resizes” selected. The labels will not be
resized by this.
I tried using both properties on two monitors and noticed
that the change does not occur when the resolutions between the monitors are
different. I had to lower both monitors’ resolution to see the change work
properly.
Please post back if you have any questions. Have a great day!

Image preload issue

I've built a flash site for a video company. Due to the
design and fact they want high quality videos on the site, the
final file is a monstrous 9 megs! I've built a preloader into the
site which seems to work fine, except for one issue.
I built a 3D navigation into the site which was imported from
Swift 3D as a series of numbered picts. I would assume that the
preloader would, well, "preload" the images so once the site is
loaded, it would play smoothly, however, this is not the case. The
first time the picts run, they are very choppy, but then every
subsequent time it's run, it plays smooth and great.
So, here's the obvious question... How can I make it so that
the picts run smoothly the FIRST time?
Thanks in advance!

Image hyperlink - action is disable

Hi
I inserted an image into my model and I want to make that image a hyperlink to open another iView. But the Action tab is disabled.
Is this a standard setting for SP 9?
Thanks

I'm having the same problem.
The VC Reference Guide (pg92) says that the Action Tab is available for an image, but it is disabled for me too. I am on SP8 and thought that it must have been because of that.
Please let me know if you get this worked out.
Thanks

Photoshop Scripts/Image Processor / Action Error

CS3:
My image processor has been working just fine with this action.. but for some reason out of the blue it says "sorry I could not process files:" and lists all the files that was processed. now its funny because it works just fine, the action is applied and it saves just fine but it doesn’t close the current window any longer and it gives that error.
the action is pretty complex but it only copies and rename layers and applies one filter.
again it worked just fine not too long ago.. I'm not sure what happened...
here is a copy of the action ... it uses portraiture plug-in filter in the beginning...
http://www.fileden.com/files/2006/8/29/194220/File%20start%20action.atn
any help would be great!
Thanks!!

Contact Adobe support, you hit a bug. I never seen that one pop up before.
But in general what it is saying is it is trying to create a window and to do so it needs to reference a constructor.
That constructor should have been automatically created or a programmer creates one from scratch, that depends on how the code was created. Since that bug normally does not appear, I would say a some code pointed to the wrong location in memory hence the word reference. (In generic terms reference means to point to a location in memory)
Try it again and see if it repeats itself. I think Adobe will tell you that you need to reinstall photoshop, but its better that they tell you that as I could easily be misinterpreting that error message.

How to remove background image per action

Hi!
I just created a wonderful action, but there's still one step I can't get working.
I am optimzing scanned PDFs.
First step: Preflight: Convert to greyscale.
Second step: Optimize PDF: All filters set to high. This separates the background of the scan from the scanned text. Both marked as image, not as background image.
Third step: Remove the backmost image. Can't get that working.
Any ideas?
Thank you very much!

There may be a preflight script to remove the image, but it might get rid of all images. You can also use the Object Touchup Tool (or the new name that I forget) to select the background image and delete it. You would have to do it on each page.

Embedded Image triggers action even when disabled - Agentry

Hi;
I am working on SAP Work Manager 6.0 customising, using Agentry 6.1.3. I have created these embedded images for triggering actions that act on the current selected object on the current screen. The embedded images have rules to display the enabled image when particular conditions are met and rules to display the disabled image when not met. To my suprise, the buttons still seem to trigger the underlying action even when the button is showing the disabled image. Is this standard Agentry behaviour or there is a particular way I have to implement the underlying action to avoid this?
Your help is much appreciated!
Thanks and Regards;
Sizo Ndlovu

Hi Stephen;
Thank you for the response. If I understand you correctly, you are saying I should put an action enable rule based on the enable/disable image, to say only enable action if image = enabled? How would this rule look like?
Thanks;

Loading frames before images (preloader question)

I've got an .swf of which is 83% images and weighs ~4mb.
For that big size I decided I would do an preloader, however, the preloader's frame will only load after images and other resources are loaded.
Basically, the preloader will only appear after 83% of that .swf is loaded, which leaves the white screen for a big time, and only then displays the preloader.
In even simpler words, I want to set the loading priority of something(a resource? a scene? a frame?), or, load only a single frame and then let that frame load the rest.
Please point out if you didn't understand what I mean.

No, I'm using Flash CS5.5. Maybe it was fault of my interpretation.
I'm currently editing a .fla file, not an .swf. This .fla file has two scenes, whose the first is used for the preloader, which will skip to the next scene when the movie is loaded.
If that is revelant, here is the code of the preloader:
var total:Number;
var loaded:Number;
this.onEnterFrame = function()
total = _root.getBytesTotal();
loaded = _root.getBytesLoaded();
if(loaded >= total){
delete(onEnterFrame);
nextScene();
_root.ppl = (Math.floor((loaded/total)*100)).toString() + "%";
stop();
"ppl" is the variable which holds the contents of an dynamic text which shows the percentage.

Resizing images in Actions

Hi I am trying to make a clip in premire and need to resize hundreds of images.
can anyone explain how to do this with Actions?
Any help would be great
thxK

Use the Image Processor in Photoshop for that.
Better yet, use the free Dr. Brown's Services by Russell brown, who is also the author of the built-in Image Processor in Photoshop. It's like the Image Processor on steroids.

Having Trouble With Image Preloads

Can somebody please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Check out my homepage -
http://www.huppbrian.us
The links on there are all supposed to rollover, and they
do... kinda.
Hold your mouse over one of them, and you'll see the
appropriate rollover behavior... eventually.
Yes, I did check the "preload images" box for them all (only
the buttons and scroll jpg).
Funny thing is that if you click on one of the links, and
then click the back button, the rollovers on the home page then
work fine.
Any ideas???

I haven't renamed anything as far as I know. I made a new folder when I hit Folder option and it's highlighted as well as the path shows up in the processor box. Just when I choose run it tells me to specify a folder. The only thing I can think of is that maybe something messed up b/c I'm copied the files and folders over from my PC but it let me save as on the mac. Also the folder I'm choosing to put them in is on the Mac harddrive. IDK...

UME permissions for Images Saver Action Block, MII version 12.1

I have a BLS using the Image saver block but it seems that some MII users can do not have the ablity to save files using this action block. The BLS transaction works fine when I'm logged in as MII admin.
What UME permissions do you need to write files on the local MII folder (in the project web path) to perform this action?
Note: I don't have access to UME on this box, as it is a customers box and is managed by a seperate basis person. I need to let that person know what permissions to add.

I think you have to assign the file system actions in the UME to a role that the user has:
XMII_FileSystem_R, XMII_FileSystem_RW, XMII_FileSystemBrowser etc.

IE Windows randomly fails to show swapped images preloaded

if you look at this page in IE6 Windows (did not test in
IE5):
http://ever-together.com/site/product_detail.php
and use the little numbers or next-previous arrows to swap
the main image, randomly (it seems), the
image will just not show up.
Since it seems random, you might have to try several times
before an image does not show.
Even an image that has showed before, sometimes does not show
if you just click on its corresponding
number again.
The images are preloaded using <body
onLoad="MM_PreLoadImages()">
The javascript code to swap the images is different on the
numbers, which use MM_setTextOfLayer and
on the previous-next arrows, which use a custom script, but
both randomly fail to display the images
in IE6, so I assume it is an IE bug?
Anybody encountered this problem before?

Selection Tool to select "Exact Border" of an Image in Action

Hi,
Is there a better way to select the "Exact Border of An Image" instead of using "Rectangular Marquee Tool" manually?

If the BG is uniformely colored, obviously Edit --> Trim using the top left corner color may work. Otherwise - no.
