Help!!! Button and action sequence...

I am creating a relatively simple web site in FC, but I have run into a problem. I purchased a stock .mov file, which I converted in Flash CS5 to use as an intro to the site. In Flash, I added a button to enter the site. My resulting .swf intro works perfectly in Flash; but when I import into FC, the button no longer functions (the button states are preserved, but there is no interactivity - even when I use the "Add Interaction" panel in FC). Where did I go wrong?
And, is there any way to access a specific frame of a file in FC?
Thanks!
Jane

There is a nice converter in the CS5 suite called something like Adobe Media Converter I think. Use that tool and convert it to a flv instead. There is lots of things in Flash that I think runs in conflict if you embed a .swf with a FLVplayer from flash.

Dynamic Creation of Buttons and Actions HELP

Hi there,
I have got a problem (or maybe even two) with the dynamic Creation of buttons. The code below creates the buttons.
My main problem is, that the parameter created for the button's action isn't propagated to the assigned event handler. I get a null, though the name of the parameter in the event handler and the name of the parameter added to the action are the same.
Could it also be that I'm always using the same action? I.e. does wdThis.wdGetAddElementAction() always return the same action instance? If yes, how can I create individual actions for each button?
Any help is appreciated!
Cheers,
Heiko
"    for(int i=rootContainer.getChildren().length; i<wdContext.nodeFeature().size();i++)
               IPrivateVCT_Feature.IFeatureElement featureElement = wdContext.nodeFeature().getFeatureElementAt(i);
               IWDTray featureTray = (IWDTray) view.createElement(IWDTray.class, featureElement.getName());
               IWDCaption header = (IWDCaption) view.createElement(IWDCaption.class, featureElement.getName()+"_Header");

Hi Heiko,
You have done everything correctly....except for 1 line
in the code...
Replace the following line in your code:
actionAddElement.getActionParameters().addParameter("featureIndex", new Integer(i).toString());
Replace the above line with this code:
button.mappingOfOnAction().addParameter("featureIndex",i);
Actually in your code, you are not associating the parameter with the button...
Note that addParameter(...) comes with two signatures: addParameter(String param, String value) and addParameter(String param, int value). You can use any of them based on yuor need.
Hope it helps,
Thanks and Regards,

Duplicating Buttons and Actions?

I am creating an Interactive PDF and will be using buttons to show and hide many of the features. I would like to replicate many of the buttons and the actions. However, when I try and copy and paste (or use option) to do this actions attached to the button would not export to the PDF. Is there anything I can do to fix this or accomplish the same thing?

If a button is not working correctly, here are the typical culprits.
1. PDF viewer. Interactive elements may not work on various PDF viewers, but in your case, you're using Reader.
2. Corruption. An Indesign document (especially one with with many interactive elements) can become corrupt. Export to IDML, open IDML back into ID, export to PDF and test.
3. Faulty Inspection. A button can be a complex interaction of actions, events and visibility. A button can have multiple actions assigned to multiple events. The complexity is compounded with many buttons using show/hide actions. The task of determining whether all attributes are applied correctly is tedious. Make sure to toggle each event in panel and inspect each action, along with checking the visibility of other buttons.

Are you trying to go back to an older version of the Verizon Yahoo or back to just regular Verizon??

Buttons and Action Script 3 in Flash CS4

Hi, I am new to Flash. I am working on creating a photo gallery and I am having an issue trying to figure out how to add AS3 code to link buttons to a point in a timeline. I have 5 buttons each with an alpha transparency change that works fine and now I want to establish an action on each button that on CLICK will bring up a particular photo in my timeline. Help! Thanks

I can't tell you what is involved with bringing up a photo on your timeline, but to code a button to do something, first you assign it an instance name via the properties panel. Let's say you name it btn1.
Then, normally in layer dedicated to actionscript, in the same frame as that button you assign an event listener and an event handler to go with it...
function btn1Handler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop("framelabel"); // or frame number
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn1Handler);
For that example it shows how to have the button make things move to a different frame in the timeline.

Buttons and Action script 3

I have purchased Flash CS3 and have created a small
animation. I would like the user to press the button in order for
the animation to play. With the previouse version of flash I would
drag the button onto the stage open the action script window and
start entering the script e.g. on(release){gotoandPlay(5);}
However with the new version I cannot write scripts for the
buttons.... I am confused or am I missing something? Please help me
out.

you're missing actionscript3. and if you don't care to learn
and use it, just use the actionscript2 publish settings and use
actionscript2 coding in your projects.

Configs and action sequences

Hello everybody.
I need to have a lot of config settings stored on disk. Well, I can do it
via text *.ini files and then read them during start of a application. But
as well I can use Global variable and change its values manualy (can I save
its defaults from VI?). So what is the best method? I mean best LabVIEW way.
Adn similar, I think, question. I have to implement several sequences of
controlling actions, that may be changed realatively frequently so.. Do I
need to rewire them everytime using LabVIEW, or it is the best to develop
some kind of a macrolanguage for the purpose? I don't like this idea,
actually.
I am using version 4.0.1.
Thank you in advance.
---Dmitry.

You could, as you experiment with your application, figure out what are the best values for your globals, set these values as default and the development enviroment (even an exe) will remember these values when you start it. The problem with this is if you ever want to change the values, you have to go in, change the value and re-save it as default. And in the case of an exe, you would then have to recompile and re-distribute it to all the computers using it. It is much easier to add the values to a simple ini file and distribute it with the application. It is very easy to change the values with any text editor and once the code is written (to read from an ini file) it is easy to duplicate wherever you need it.
i'm not sure what you are talking about in your second que
stion. Do you mean that the code that executes after a button push or twist of a knob on the front panel will need to change at runtime? Sometimes a button push will execute code A and sometimes it will execute code B? Could you give examples?

Logon customization adding the button and action

HI,
I have a com.sap.portal.runtime.par file I imported and umLogonpage.JSp I added the pictures.

Why another way? Just typejava.lang.Object source = ...Kind regards,
Levi

I have downloaded the 3.6.4 update, but it won't load. I used the help button and asked it to resume...no luck.

It just doesn't seem to automatically want to take the next step. Could be that the .exe won't initiate. I have tried to go around it by having it load via my wordpress blog, but I still get stuck after the download. The error message say that it cannot connect to the update server.

I'm not sure why you can't download it with Firefox. This article has some suggestions: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Unable%20to%20download%20or%20save%20files Unable to download or save files | Troubleshooting | Firefox Help].
Have you tried downloading it with IE?
If I misunderstood your question and it is downloading successfully, try restarting Windows and then running the installer.

Button and Action Event

Im using this code
ic void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e)
     //Object source = evt.getSource(); Cant use Object as it becomes ambiguous, being used by both CORBA and Java
     Object source = e.getSource();
     if (source == testButton)
          sendElement("HelloWorld");
}which is cool but when using it in a corba application the pesky compiler throws this back.
Supplier.java:204: reference to Object is ambiguous, both class org.omg.CORBA.Ob
ject in org.omg.CORBA and class java.lang.Object in java.lang match
Object source = e.getSource();
is there another way to achieve the same but without using the Object thing ?

Why another way? Just typejava.lang.Object source = ...Kind regards,

Problems adding url link to buttons in action Script 3

each time I added it link 1 to the button on file i get these error messages-
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: link1.
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method link1.
Warning: 3594: exec is not a recognized method of the dynamic class RegExp. var r:Object = p.exec(s);
This is the code I am using:   import flash.net.navigateToURL; import flash.net.URLRequest; var link_one:link1; link_one = new link1(); stage.addChild(link_one); link_one.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler); function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { var url:String = "http://www.masterpiececorp.com/ARMREF.htm"; var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url); navigateToURL(request); }    I have no other problems with link 3 or 4, just link 1 I still cannot get my urls link to movie clips on the flash
Can you upload flash here? if not I have a image capture I can use to have you look at my buttons and action script code. i have been to every forum I know and not any have been helpful at all. This is my last hope.
Very frustrated newbie Gina T

The way you had your code originally would be correct...
var link_one:link1;
link_one = new link1();
addChild(link_one);
The 1046 error is indicating it doesn't recognize the link1 class. So the first thing you need to make sure of is that you have assigned the link1 class designation to whatever symbol that is in the library.

Help button question Applescript Studio

Hi everyone!
My help menu works just fine but to get my help button on the main window to work I set the default app for my file to Help Viewer. Then I script the open file command in Finder to open the file which is in my app bundle. It works fine and I was never able to get the cocoa command to open the help file to work with my button. My question is though I just realized that if I would click the help button multiple times it would open multiple windows of the same file in Help Viewer. That doesn't seem to be cool as I would hope it would realize the file is already open and not open the same file again? Any thoughts on how I can resolve this?
If it helps here's a link to my past posts:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=693971&tstart=0
Thanks for the help!

My help menu works just fine
You don't say whether or not you changed the normal setup for the Help menu item to make it work "just fine"... Typically the help menu item has a connection in Interface Builder to the First Responder's showHelp: method. Assuming you did not change this, and this is what is working fine, then there's no reason that you can't also set up your help button to work in the same way (no AppleScript code would be needed).
In Interface Builder...
- First turn off the "on clicked" action for your help button in the AppleScript pane of the Inspector window (so clicking the button doesn't trigger any AppleScript code).
- Then select your help button and <Control>-drag from the help button to the "First Responder" icon in the "MainMenu.nib" window. As you're dragging you'll see a blue line following the mouse.
- Release the mouse button once the line goes from your button to the First Responder and you see a blue square surrounding the "First Responder" icon. This will cause the "Target/Action" pane to open in IB's Inspector window and you will see a long list of "Actions for First Responder".
- Scroll down and highlight the "showHelp:" method then click the "Connect" button. A little circle will appear next to the "showHelp:" item indicating the connection has been made.
- Save your nib file and rebuild your app.
Now when you click on your help button it will do a Cocoa call to the First Responder's showHelp: method allowing it to work just like the help menu item.

Dynamic buttons and itemlisteners????

I'm trying to do something that might not be possible. I would like to create some buttons and actions for those buttons on the fly. For example:
1) read some files from a directory (these file store settings)
2) Create buttons using the filenames as the button labels
3) Create associated actionPerformed section related to those buttons
I want to do this because the amount of files and there names could change all the time. Basically I want to create a button for each file, and essentially launch an application using the settings file as part of a process.
So far I've read a filename into a string. The first problem, how do I use that filename as the name of a button?
JButton "string value" = new JButton();
Then, subsequently, how to you set up the action? See code snipet below.
Hope that made some sense. Can anything like this be done?
Thanks,
James
//this loads the buttons
for (int i=0; i < main.size(); i++)
     Vector temp = new Vector();
     temp = (Vector)main.elementAt(i);
     JButton buttonName = new JButton((String)temp.elementAt(0));
     buttonName.addActionListener(this);
     northFlow.add(buttonName);
//this is in the actionPerformed section
for (int i=0; i < main.size(); i++)
     Vector temp = new Vector();
     temp = (Vector)main.elementAt(i);
     if (source == (String)temp.elementAt(0))
            loadProgram((String)temp.elementAt(0));

There is a way to give a button a variable name equal to the file name but it involves extremely advanced Java programming involving creating dynamic class instances. I would strongly discourage this approach because debugging it when it doesn't work, can be a nightmare.
There is a much easier way to do this however. Create an array of JButtons. Call it, oh say, "MyButtons". Then at the appropriate places, you can do:
JButton[] MyButtons;
MyButtons = new JButton[ main.size ];
for ( int i = 0; i < main.size(); i++ ) {
   Vector temp = new Vector();
   temp = (Vector)main.elementAt(i);
   MyButtons[i] = new JButton( (String)temp.elementAt(0) );
   MyButtons.addAction...
Incidently, you may also want to re-think your data structure. From what I understand, you have an array where each element is a vector (another array of zero or more elements). This results in code that is difficult to read and write. Consider making your own objects instead of using vectors, then you could write something like...
for ( int i = 0; i < main.size(); i++ ) {
   if ( source == main.getProgramName() ) {
loadProgram( main[i].getProgramName() );
The nice thing about this approach is that you can mix and match objects within the array, or add elements to each object in any particular order and it won't break the rest of your code.
P.S., use the square brackets to indicate arrays. For some reason, this board is converting them into angle brackets.
