Hotspot - roll over text

Hi Gurus,
I have a page with a map on it. I have created few hotspots
on it. Now whenever the user hovers the mouse pointer over the
hotpost, I would like to show a small 3-line text box somewhere on
the page/map. This text changes from one hotspot to another
hotspot. Appreicate any ideas. Thanks.

Add a title attribute to each associated <area> tag,
e.g.,
<area title="this might do the trick" ...>
Select the hotspot and look at code view to see where to add
the title tag.

Roll Over text for key figures

Our business users are requesting us to apply the "Roll Over Text" to the APO/DP Key Figures. Currently the text pop-up displays only the key figure name when you keep the curser on it. We would like to have pop-up text with 40 character values when the curser keeps on the keyfigure in the Interactive Planning Book.
We have more than 60 keyfigure in each planning book (total around 200 Keyfigures) and most of the key figure names are looks similar, to avoid confusion we would like to maintain the 40 character note should display when some body would like to know about the keyfigure.
Is there any possibility to maintain the rollover text in Planning Area or Planning Book or any where else ? Is there any performance issues if we design in this way ?

Write a macro which can run on start.
Row: Forecast ( Attributes ) = ROW_TOOLTIP( 'Forecast Constrained Plan' ) .
In this case, the Row Forecast will have tool tip "Forecast Constrained Plan"

How to get content sensitive roll over text?

I've just been looking for at some tutorials, (can't find many) but can't seem to get it to work. i just want to be able to roll over movieclips and have messages displayed in a textbox. i have the font embeded. i know it's got to be something simple i just can't think of it.

maybe something like:
this._parent.note.text._x = _xmouse; // sets the texts ._x property to the cursors x
this._parent.note.text._y = _ymouse-10; //same but for y axis and minuses 10 so it isnt blocked by cursor.

Pb with handCursor when rolling over text embedded in a MC

Hi,
I have a little pb when creating movieClip buttons containing
a textField.
Indeed when rolling over the button, and precisely rolling
over the text contained in my button, the handCursor is replaced by
the normal arrow. How can I prevent that? I mean having the
handCursor displayed over the whole button, not only outside the
textField areas?
If you don't see what I mean, please consider the following
simple code , you will see that when rolling over "HELLO" the
handCursor disaoppears :
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.*;
var buttonClip=new MovieClip();
buttonClip.buttonMode=true;
buttonClip.useHandCursor=true;
buttonClip.graphics.lineStyle(1,0x000000,100);
buttonClip.graphics.beginFill(0xaaaaaa,100);
buttonClip.graphics.drawRect(0,0,200,20);
buttonClip.graphics.endFill();
buttonClip.x=50;
buttonClip.y=50;
this.addChild(buttonClip);
var texte=new TextField();
texte.text="HELLO";
texte.selectable=false;
buttonClip.addChild(texte);
Thanks for your help,
Pascal

I am having a similar problem. I was using MX 2004 and the
hand cursor displayed over the whole movie, even on loaded movies.
On movies that will be loaded over the base_level are loaded the
arrow is never displayed, and is always a hand. When the movies are
viewed separately the arrow changes to hand cursor as it should.
With the exception of the base movie which is always the hand
cursor. I did find code for mx2004 to correct this, but it would
mean that i would need to add code to every instance on the stage
across 6 loadedMovies, and the base level.
Does the CS3 document class correct this action? If so, how
do i find out what code to use.

How do I fade in a roll over image

Hi,
I have a roll over text/png to link on my home page that I would like to fade in.
I saw something on the net and tried it and it didn't work.
Any thoughts? I realize these won't CSS work on all browsers. Should I go to Java?
My home page: www.adjacentdimensionsmedia.com
HTML:
<div class="clearovalfortree">
<a href="portfolio.html" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('Image10','','images/treewithtextversion3.png',1)" class="opacity" >
<img src="clearovalfortree.png" alt="text for tree2" width="800" height="600" id="Image10"></a></div>
CSS:
img.opacity {
opacity: 0.5;
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
-webkit-transition: opacity 1s linear;
img.opacity:hover {
opacity: 1;
filter: alpha(opacity=100);
-webkit-transition: opacity 1s linear;
Paul

All you need to do is place the images on top of each other and change the opacity of the top image on hover as in
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style>
#test {
    width: 800px;
position: relative;
margin: auto;
#test img {
    width: 800px;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
-webkit-transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out;
-o-transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out;
transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out;
#test img.top:hover {
opacity: 0;
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="test">
    <img class="bottom" src="http://www.adjacentdimensionsmedia.com/images/treewithtextversion3.png" alt="">

Roll over question

I'd like to roll over text on a page, and have it change in color, AND have an image show up on the page. Is there any way that I can do this?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks so much, Ken for your answer.
I made this site years ago in Adobe GoLive, and wanted to update it in

Fixed Image roll over question....

I am putting the finishing touches on my photography business site (www.colbybrownphotography.com) and came across an interesting problem. Instead of using iWEB's photo gallery pages (which I can't stand) I decided to set up my page as an art portfolio with an "art gallery" feel to it. The photos in my "home" section are set up as links so when I roll over them they list where they are redirecting you, but in my actually gallery they are fixed images. Is there any ability to add roll over text to those photos where I could possible talk about the particular photo that the mouse scrolls over? I knew I would be limited when I decided to use iWeb to put together my site but I have been surprised lately with at least a few of the ideas I figured would be out of its technical reach. Thanks in advance.
Colby

There's also this +Tooltip DHTML Library+. At the following link, mouseover the image there...
http://www.walterzorn.com/tooltip/tooltip_e.htm
...I don't know how easy these scripts are to incorporate into an iWeb site using +HTML Snippets+, but if you get them working, please post back here explaining how you did it.
The following thumbnail viewer is beyond what you were asking for, but anyway, click on the examples here and watch the captions drop down...

Disable roll-over-color in List

Hi,
I'd like to only use roll-over-text-color in my list, but have no roll-over-color at all. Is there a way to kill the roll over color, as well as the selection color?
Thanks

@upshotvideo,
For mx:List, I think Harui is suggesting something like the following:
package comps {
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import mx.controls.List;
    import mx.controls.listClasses.IListItemRenderer;
    public class NoHighlightList extends List {
        public function NoHighlightList() {
            super();
        override protected function drawHighlightIndicator(indicator:Sprite, x:Number, y:Number, width:Number, height:Number, color:uint, itemRenderer:IListItemRenderer):void {
            // super.drawHighlightIndicator(indicator, 0, y, unscaledWidth - viewMetrics.left - viewMetrics.right, height, color, itemRenderer);

How can i change the color of the text on a button in Roll Over or Click state (Cs5.5)

Hello,
Here is the problematic:
1° How can i change the color of the text on a button in Roll Over or Click state (Cs5.5)
- I've many button in a doc im creating
- the color of the buttons is white with black stoke & black text
- in roll over state i want them to inverse the color coding (the text white & bottom black)
- currently the text becomes invisible as black on black cant be seen (ive stroked it white but that looks ugly)
- i would just like to know if there is a function made for this?
My other questions:
2° Ive a presentation on which Ive created buttons which tigger pop-up animations
- i have 5 buttons which trigger animations
- the viewer can chose to Click on any of the buttons randomly
- the problem is once the animation is open how can it be close... either:
a) by it self after "40" seconds
b) when ther viewer clicks another button
3° Ive created buttons linking pages..
- "go to page xxx"
- when i do a preview and click on the buttons the links dont take me to the right pages
- is that normal? (maybe in preview its suppose to be like that)
4° I would like to intergrate YouTube videos in the presentation so they play inside the docment.. when i tried.. it said the 'link isnt a flash video'
- what should i do?
5° Once i export it into Swf. how how can i visualize it? or put it online?
Thank you for your time.

You should setup Object Styles - these can also include Paragarph Styles that can be triggered when the Style is selected.

I'm not sure what you mean - I don't do files with Animations

Does it work properly when you export it to the finished file?
4° I would like to intergrate YouTube videos in the presentation so they play inside the docment.. when i tried.. it said the 'link isnt a flash video'- what should i do?
InDesign won't link directly to youtube videos. I think your best bet would be to use Downloader to download the video and embed them directly in Indesign.
5° Once i export it into Swf. how how can i visualize it? or put it online?
Thank you for your time.
You can look up how to embed a SWF file into your HTML - but it depends what you mean by "online" there's a dozen ways to get a file "online".

PDF alt text displays as a roll over

When I generate PDFs, the alt text is displayed when I roll over the figure to which the alt text is assigned. Is there any way to keep the alt text but turn off the roll over effect?
I have a customer who finds the roll over effect bothersome.
thanks for any assistance.
Steve

No - if there's some ALT text, the Acrobat Family will always show it.

Button roll-over animation with dynamic text

So I have a button I want to be able to use over and over. When you roll over the button, it does an animation and has a dynamic text box in it. Ovbiously im trying to make each text different for each button. What would be the smartest way to go about this? Thanks,
Dan

create a movieclip, put a stop() in frame one and add your "up" graphics, textfield etc put everything in its own layer. create another keyframe on that timeline and label the frame "over" and add new keyframes only on the layers that will change. ie, if the textfield doesn't change, don't put a keyframe on its layer. likewise, for a "down" frame, if you want one.
use instance names for everything in the movieclip that you want to control with actionscript. ie, your textfield(s) will need instance name(s). i usually use one textfield named tf.
then use:
btn1.tf.text = "test"
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,overF);
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,outF);
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,downF);
function overF(e:Event){
// if you have another textfield here assign its text
// likewise for other objects you want to change
e.currentTarget.gotoAndStop("over");
function outF(e:Event){
// if you changed textfields in the other frames, reassign tf.text here
e.currentTarget.gotoAndStop(1);
function downF(e:Event){
// if you have another textfield here assign its text
e.currentTarget.gotoAndStop("down");

Text buttons and roll over

Hi
I have text buttons and want to make the text bold when the user rolls over. (this is a menu)
Are there any other ways besides having the text as a master slide and then click boxes and roll overs, I realise I can do text buttons but there is a small icon that I need at the front of the text which will also need to be clickable.
thanks

Bold only when rolling over? That means that you will not be able to use it for HTML5 output? Only SWF is OK?
My first idea is to use the EventHandler widget of InfoSemantics (not free but you can download a trial version), because it can create a rollover event for your text button. Anyway you'll have to create a transparent text container (shape or caption) that has the Bold Text and appears when rolling over. If you don't want to go with that widget, you can simulate the same by using the Rollover slidelet (you'll need only the Area, can drag the Slidelet itself outside of the sldie), that has a rollover event that can trigger an action to show that previously hidden transparent text.
Welcome to the forum, just one tip: mention the version number (exact number, which you find under Help, About Captivate) when you post a question.

Much of my text looks fuzzy until I roll over it with my mouse

much of the text looks out of focus until i roll over it with my mouse, then it is clearly readable

This usually occurs because you're printing a photo in an Aspect Ratio different from the actual shot. The Aspect Ratio is the shape of the photo, expressed as the length x breadth.
So, if you have - for instance - a 4:3 shot and try print that at 4:6 you will have issues.

How do I make a textbox appear in a PDF made in InDesign CC when the cursor rolls over another textbox?

I'm trying to make a textbox appear in a PDF made in InDesign when the user rolls the cursor over another textbox, and I want it to disappear when the cursor moves off the first textbox. I've tried the following with various setting, and it's just not working for me.
Display a different button on rollover
You can create a hot spot in which clicking or mousing over an object displays another object. To do this, create two buttons, hide one of the buttons, and use the Show/Hide Button action to show and hide the target button.
Create an object to be used as the source button. In the Buttons panel, click the Convert Object To A Button icon.
Place the image you want to be used as the target button, and convert it to a button.
Select the target image and select Hidden Until Triggered at the bottom of the Buttons panel.
The image needs to be hidden in the exported document so that it can be displayed when the source button is moused over or clicked.
Select the source button and create two different actions, one to show the target image and a second to hide the target image.
If you want the image to appear when the mouse hovers over the source button, use the On Roll Over and On Roll Off events. If you want the image to appear when you click the source button and disappear when you release it, use the On Click and On Release events. In either case, use the Show/Hide Buttons action to display and hide the target button. See Make buttons interactive.
Use the Preview panel to test the buttons.

Here's more information about what I'm doing.
1. create text box with a little text
2. turn it into a button (Button 1)
3. create another text box with some text
4. turn this into a button (Button 2)
5. check "Hidden Until Triggered" for Button 2
6. For Button 1, select "On Roll Over" for Event
7. For Button 1, click + to add Action and choose "Show/Hide Buttons and Forms"
8. For Button 1, change icon next to Button 2 into eyeball (which I assume makes Button 2 visible on roll over).
9. For Button 1,, select "On Roll Off" for Event
7. For Button 1, click + to add Action and choose "Show/Hide Buttons and Forms"
8. For Button 1, change icon next to Button 2 into crossed-out eyeball (which I assume makes Button 2 invisible on roll off).
8. Export to PDF with modified smallest file size and include bookmarks and hyperlinks and include appearance for interactive elements.
Both buttons are visible in the PDF, and nothing happens with roll over and off.
What am I doing wrong?
