Help with Custom Buttons

This is a Dreamweaver/Flash problem, didn't know what forum
to put it in. Just a heads up there.
I'm trying to edit a flash button template using flash. I go
to Flash, import the button, and edit it (the color). I then save
it and try to use it in Dreamweaver, but all that comes up when I
insert it is the Flash logo. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Rock

As Omar said, replace the boolean with a transparent button. In this example I used a Square button from the Classic palette. I colored the border in one state to highlight which button is on.
The Test Control Border is the modified square button I used to replace the original radio button.

you can't use the button itself if you want to maintain the
DOWN state after
release as button automatically resets itself once the mouse
lives the HIT zone.
Use movie clip instead and on press simply send it to a frame
where there
is DOWN state like image.

Help with linking buttons to Scenes

Hey,
Rookie to Flash and AS3. Just needed some help with my buttons. Im making a flash program about pancakes (random I know). I have a "Mainmenu" scene and then a "Recipe" scene. I have a button on my mainmenu which takes me to the recipe page when I click it, the code behind the button is
"stop();btn_recipe.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop(1, "Recipe");
Then when I arrive at my recipe page I have a button which will take me back to my MainMenu, the code behind that button is:
"stop();btn_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouse5DownHandler);function mouse5DownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(1, "MainMenu");
So I run my program and the first button works and takes me to recipe page but the button to get to the main menu does nothing, click it and no response or anything
Please help

First, hopefully having all your code mushed onto the same line is a copy/paste error, otherwise it should look like...
stop();
btn_recipe.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
     gotoAndStop(1, "Recipe");
If the intention is to click the buttons to make them work, then you should use CLICK instead of MOUSE_DOWN. MOUSE_DOWN can be a persistent state whereas CLICK involves releasing it afterwards.
As for the code to get you back home, where is it located on the timeline? Are you getting any error messages when you try to use it?
One thing you should learn to use is the trace() function. It is useful for troubleshooting. You can use it now to see if your second button is talking to the function at all...
stop();
btn_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouse5DownHandler);
function mouse5DownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
     trace("the button works okay");
     gotoAndPlay(1, "MainMenu");
If you don't get that message in the output panel, you'll know the button is not properly coded to work.
Most folks here will recommend you get away from using scenes in a design that includes navigation--they have a history of being problematic. Instead of using scenes, divide the one main timeline up into sections or use movieclips for the sections and manage their visibility... or do a bit of both.

Help with custom tables

Hello All,
I need some help with custom tables. I have created a custom table to maintain names and I also did table maintenance generation so that the user can maintain names in this table using SM30 transaction.
The question is, in my program on the selection screen when the user press F4 I need to display the values maintained in this custom table...
Can anyone help me with this.
Thanks
Pavan

If I understood you correctly, you have a program in which one or some of the selection screen fields refer to a custom database table field(s).
You want to implement a F4 functionality.
Fill an internal table with the values you want to show.
Call the function module 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST' in the event AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR MYPARAM as follows.
call function 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
       exporting
            retfield    = MYITAB-FIELD
            dynprofield = MYSELSCREENPARAM
            dynpprog    = sy-cprog
            dynpnr      = sy-dynnr
            value_org   = 'S'
       tables
            value_tab   = my_f4_itab.

Problems with custom buttons

I have problems with custom buttons in Captivate 5. The button is not switching from the _up stage to _over stage, but when I click on it the _down stage works fine. It is not a problem with the naming of the buttons. They are all with the same name and in lower case. I have tried with various custom buttons and the problem is the same. There is no problems with the standard buttons from the Adobe Gallery, so it is a bit strange, also strange that it is only the _over stage that causes problems.
The buttons I have made in Adobe Illustrator. Have tried both exporting in png and bmp format. It is the same problem.
Hope someone has some idea as to what can be wrong.

Hi Manish,
I have uploaded the zip file with the button files to Acrobat and mailed you the link.
Look forward to hear if you find a reason or more importantly a solution :-)
Kind regards

UWL - Help with Decision Buttons

Hello SDNers,
I'm customizing the UWL iView to show approval itens only, and their respective decision buttons.
Everything looks ok, but when someone try to submit the decisions it shows the message:
"reject wasn't correct"
Where "reject" is the name I gave to the action.
It also happens with the approval action.
Below is the XML I've created.
Does someone have a clue in what that message means, or what I've done wrong?
Thanks in advance!!

Hi There,
Make sure that your decisionKeys are correct. I have seen issues with this many times. Log on to the backend system and call SAP_WAPI_DECISION_READ or SWK_DECISION READ for a specific workitem (You can get the details of the workitem id from the support information on the UWL - enable this and you can check this specific workitem) The decision key is an internal value (typically a numeric value) corresponding to the selected decision used by the provider.
You will need to ensure that you have x amount of decisions configured in the xml file, where x = the amount of decisions configured in the backend system.
For additional help with this topic please see the userDecision Action Handler documentation:

Help with Custom calculation script in Acrobat 8

Hi all, I am using acrobat 8 on OS 10.5
I am trying to add certain fields (numbers) and then subtract another field value to give an end result.
I don't know anything about Javascript, would anyone be able to help with any info on how I achieve this result? I can only see Add, x and average etc... nothing there for subtraction
Thanks for any help in advance
Swen

This should get you started:
>if (event) {
// get values from two text fields
var a = Number(this.getField('Text1').value);
var b = Number(this.getField('Text2').value);
// subtract the values and show it
this.event.target.value = a - b;
Place this in a 3d text field, as a Custom Calculation Script.

Help with custom page size support for non standard paper

Firstly, we appreciate any support you may be able to provide, we have already thrown considerable effort at this and it has been very time consuming and frustrating.
To support a number of business functions need to print to (non standard) continuous and mulitpart paper on a dot matrix printer. The (test) Mac is a 10.4.11 G4 laptop, the printer is an Oki Microline 520 (9 pin 80 column, IBM Proprinter, Microline or Epson FX personalities with a parallel interface) which has been networked via a HP JetDirext Ex Plus print server. That part appears to be operating correctly.
We have tried a number of drivers / printer personalities with varying levels of success:
ESP / EPSON 9-Pin Series CUPS v1.1 / Epson FX personality
ESP / OKIDATA 9-Pin Series CUPS v1.1 / Oki Microline personality
Ghostscript / epsonc / Epson Dot Matrix Foomatic PPD / Epson FX personality
Ghostscript / ibmpro / IBM ProPrinterII Foomatic PPD / IBM Proprinter personality
Ghostscript / okiibm / Oki Microline IBM compatible 9 pin Foomatic PPD / IBM Proprinter personality
There were no appropriate drivers in Gutenprint (5.2.3 version) The most successful is the okiibm / Oki Microline IBM compatible 9 pin settings, it can print A4 and honors the Printer Features Resolution settings in the print dialogue.
Q1: Should we see anything in the Printer Info / Installable Option, it is always blank ?
The issue is custom page sizes, we can manage / add Custom Pages Sizes via the Page Setup / Paper Size interface and they draw on the screen OK but they do not work at the printer (various issue at the printer such error messages, junk printing and wrong orientation):
Q2: Are we heading in the right direction or is there a better way to handle this ?
Q3: Would 10.5 solve all our problems, are the print drivers any better ?
Q4: Is this the correct way to specify custom page sizes, is this all we need to do ?
Q5: Is so how do we get the driver to respect the size, do we need another filter or something ?
Q6: Is it possible to add (by hand) custom page sizes to the ESP drivers or Foomatic PPD files so they they appear as a "standard" offering in the Page Setup / Paper Size interface ?
Sorry for the long / complicated post and thanks in advance for any advice / assistance.

Testing on 10.5.7, Tried both Oki 9-Pin Series 1.3 / Microline personality (no joy) and Epson 9-Pin Series 1.3 (this is a much better driver than 1.1) / Epson FX personality but not much joy with custom page sizes,
The Oki 9-pin Series 1.3 and the Epson 9-Pin Series 1.3 should produce the same results. The only difference in the PPDs is the printer model name.
After some testing, I find that the output is not the same despite the two PPDs being virtually identical. I did spot in the CUPS source code for the rastertoepson filter that there is some model name matching for Epson printers. Thus I can see where the output using the Oki 9-pin PPD could be different than when using the Epson 9-pin PPD.
but again once I imbedded the page size into the ppd some (but frustrating) luck. I can get it to respect the paper orientation and it prints well but I could not get the form length to work properly. At best over a print run of 7 labels it would creep up the label by about 0.1 inches / 2 mm.
Just for the fun of it, I made some additions to the Epson 9-pin 1.3 PPD. All I can say is that I could print a job to file. I have no way to know what it would look like on paper.
I did find that using a custom paper size did add some unwanted margins to the output bounding box. Putting the custom page size into the PPD seemed to get around that issue.
I added the following lines to the Epson 9-pin PPD 1.3--
<pre style="overflow: auto;font-size:small; font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; color: #222; background: #ddd; padding: .3em .8em .3em .8em; font-size: 9px;">*PageSize Label1/Label1: "<</PageSize[288 107.8]/ImagingBBox null>>setpagedevice"
*PageRegion Label1/Label1: "<<PageSize[288 107.8]/ImagingBBox null>>setpagedevice"
*ImageableArea Label1/Label1: "0 0 288.00 107.80"
*PaperDimension Label1/Label1: "288.00 107.80"</pre>
This adds a paper size with the 4 inch (288pt) width and 1.5 inch (107.8pt) height. That represents the 1.4 inch label and the 0.1 inch gap between labels. I set 0pt margins except for the bottom where is set the 0.1 inch (7pt) gap as the bottom margin.
The full diff in context is--
<pre style="overflow: auto;font-size:small; font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; color: #222; background: #ddd; padding: .3em .8em .3em .8em; font-size: 9px;">loki:~ matt$ diff -u /usr/share/cups/model/epson9.ppd ~/Desktop/epson9.ppd

Using social media share codes with custom buttons

Is there a way to use custom buttons/icons for social media share, like, etc..? I have tried inserting the html with no luck. The canned social widgets don't really match the look of the site I am designing.

Facebook doesn't allow changing that. Refer to their Guidelines with Do's and Don'ts here - https://www.facebookbrand.com/guidelines?asset=5&media=1,2,3&platform=

I need help with a button animation!

Hi,
I hope someone can help with a simple-looking problem which
nonetheless has me stumped!
I have a feeling that I've missed something obvious.
I've created a movie clip to act as a button (I've called it
"abs_button") and placed it on the stage.
My main movie has one frame.
Within the "abs_button" movie clip there are 5 layers.
Labels, actions, default button state, rollover state and rollout
state.
Technically, default button state, rollover state and rollout
state could be on the same layer as they don't overlap, but I've
given each animation its own layer for clarity.
FRAME 01.
Default button state is one frame with a graphic of the
button. Just a label at the start ("abs_up") and a "stop();" action
at the end.
FRAME 02 to 31.
Rollover state is a 30 frame animation. Label at start
("abs_over"), "stop()"; action at the end.
FRAME 32 to 62.
Rollout state is a 30 frame animation. Label at start
("abs_out"), "stop()"; action at the end.
All animations were achieved with tweens.
My initial "abs_button" code:
on (release) {
getURL("targetPage.htm", "_self");
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("abs_button", "abs_over");
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("abs_button", "abs_out");
As it stands, the animation jumps to frame 1 of "abs_out" on
rollout.
I need the "abs_over" animation to always play through to the
end, as the "abs_out" is "abs_over" in reverse (i.e. image grows
large on rollover and shrinks again on rollout.
I've tried for 2 days to solve this, but I clearly need help.
My experiments with variables simply didn't work.
I would be grateful if someone could tell me where I'm going
wrong!
Thanks,
Andy

use this:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("abs_over");
Since the code is attached directly to the movieclip, you
don't have to
identify the clip. A gotoAndPlay() function takes a frame
number or a
frame label name as its argument, never the name of the clip
that
contains the frame number or name.

Little bit of help[ with a button.

Good day all!
I need help making a button. This is what I want to happen.
I have a bunch of text, One of the words "merino" is bule as
to say there is a link hear! And I want an image of the "merino" to
come up, like a "ALT" box. Or have an image in the "ALT" box?
I know how to do this in "Flash" i.e just drop in the image
on the over state of the button event. Easy as pie! This is why I
cant get to grips with Dreamweaver! I hate it!
But I am willing to learn and maybe in time love???
Thanks all!

HTML is a lot different from Flash! :-)
I believe you could do this using DW's Show-Hide layer
behavior - have
mousing over the link trigger a layer with the image to
appear. Someone else
may have a better idea.
Just FYI, having to mouse over a link in order to get more
information about
it isn't usually appreciated by users. You *might* want to
re-think this
plan..

Help With Radio Buttons -- URGENT!!

Hi i am new to using UI compents in flash.
Basically i havnt a clue where to start.
Just some simple action script will help and be much
appreciated if someone can give me it.
Basically i have a question to ask which requires radio
buttons to answer the question.
I have a question and the answers are A, B, C, D.
I want:
A to equal 1
B to equal 2
C to equal 3
D to equal 4
E to equal 5
Would someone be able to tell me how to set up the radio
button so that the value of the radio button is stored into an
array called SCORE.
i dont need a tutor for arrays, i can do them, i just need
help with the radio buttons so a reference to an array would be
enough, eg how to store the answer from the radio button in an
array.
Thank you

Place the radio buttons on the stage and set their parameters
to what you need. Make sure that for each group of radio buttons
you give them the same group name. Then you could use something
like this:
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
var answerArr:Array = new Array();
listenerObject.click = function(eventObj:Object) {
answerArr.push(eventObj.target.selectedData);
trace(answerArr);
radioGroup.addEventListener("click", listenerObject);
radioGroup refers to the group name for the buttons.
eventObj.target will refer to the actual radio button
clicked.

Need help with encore buttons - highlights

Hi All
I am seeking help with Encode CS5. I have a project working fine except that I dont have highlights for buttons, at least I think thats what its called. So when the mouse or remote control navigates up/down toa button it changes colour.
In the properties of my button, the highlight option is greyed out.
How do I apply highlights ?
many thanks
Chris Anderson

Hi Bill
Thanks for your reply.
Here are 2 screen prints. One from encore the other from photoshop.
First time I have inserted images, and they seem a little small on this message - if you have any problems reading I could email to you.
I have highlighted the first button - which is called 'Highlights' - same issue with all the other buttons.
Do you have to use photoshop to add highlighting? or can you do this in encore - i dont have much experience with photoshop.
Not sure how to check 'Color Set' ? can you tell me how to get that for you - same for transparency for states? - I havent experienced them or changed them as I dont know how to
Yes it was duplicated - have left a message not to reply
Thanks again

Help with Social buttons ...

Hi,
I'm designing a muse site with social buttons that are created when you embed code from a site such as facebook, and others. They look like this on my site ...
I would like to build a 'social' area on my site that looks like this instead ...
So, to clarify when my user clicks on the 'f' in the lower of the two graphics above I'd like my website to behave as if the user had clicked on the 'f share' icon generated by the embedded html from facebook.
How?
Many Thanks!
Gary

Hi Gary
This would be a customization with codes for share.
You can use Share This and use the embed code for the same view that you have mentioned , which will allow users to share the page where you will insert the code.

- Select the layout
