Rezo,
"Standard Overlay Menus" function the way you are needing.
I would highly advise you to dump the multi-layer menu creation method you've been experimenting with (this marks the 9th anniversary I've been harping on this exact subject ).
You haven't seen your boss go ballistic, till you get all the calls from your customers saying their disc they bought from you navigates too slowly, gets hung up in players, etc.
Go with the Standard Overlay Menus; these are the only types of menus that should reside on DVDs slated for mass release.
Take care,
Trai

When hovering over button text it does not show button rollover state
Hi
I'm new to captivate and I'm looking for some help please. I have created buttons with Adobe Flash and saved them in PNG format, I have created an upState, overState and downState. These are working really well when I use them in Captivate. However when I add text to my buttons and rollover the text the buttons don't change state. They only change state when I hover over the button itself (a bit without the text).
Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
thanksNo, if you cover up with text, and user clicks on text, the rollover state will not function.
I have another work flow for translation (have tutorials in several languages as well). In previous versions I used Photoshop to create buttons, using layers and having the Text layer separately, so that to translate I only needed to change that layer. But I created the regular Captivate buttons (needing three PNG's for 3 states).
In Captivate 6 I have almost replaced all butons by Smart Shapes used as button. Since the double as text containers, translating is now done in Captivate itself. But those shape buttons do not have a rollover functionality, can cope with that, I opt to show the hand cursor.
Really, cannot help you if you want to stick with Flash buttons that have to be layered under a text caption, unless you make the flash button transparent where the Text has to go, so that you can put the text under the Flash button.

Play audio from hovering over button?
I don't think Encore can do this but I wanted to make sure.
This would be a menu for blind people where the first menu item would be a "play all" and the other 6 buttons would be "go to chapters" but when the cursor moves down to the next button a short audio clip would play that would "speak" what the button is. Like a subpicture only it's audio. I'm thinking this is more of a "director" type move or other multimedia flash type program and not the DVD spec. If I'm wrong and Encore can do this, please tell me how?
Thanks,
[email protected]That's not something that menus support in DVD-Video, but you can fake it by using multiple menus, with each menu having the unique audio clip for a background, and then link each menu to a button on each menu. Complete the illusion by setting each button to auto-activate.
This would be a lot of work if you have lots of buttons. -

Graphics that appear when hovering over menu buttons
Hello,
I use to create menus in DVDSP 1 that would allow me to associate a picture with menu text.
I would like to do that now, and have the picture show up when the button is either hovered over or selected. This would be in addition to the text changing colors when hovered over.
Thanks.Just to take Aldershot's suggestion a tad further...
You can do this in several ways - firstly, you can use a Photoshop layer based menu, but there are good reasons not to do that. However, if you need full colour and have a complex design this might be your only choice.
Secondly, you can use an overlay menu and mask off areas of the background with the overlay shapes. Setting the opacity to 0% for the selected and activated states will reveal what is under the overlay shape - you can have the graphic set into the background and achieve what you want.
Finally, you need to remember that the overlay pictures can only hold four colours so to reveal an image by setting it in to the overlay is not going to be very good overall.
There is more about this here:

I'm at the tail-end of the "fix the newest update" and the last thing i wanna do before i head out the door is make it so that when i open the menu and hover over the things like history bookmarks and options, that their sub menus open when my mouse is hovering over the words or the arrows. right now the sub menus only open when i hover over the arrows.
I wanna make the words and their arrows a single button with the functional purpose of both.
Thank you in advanced for your time.Are you using the Classic Theme Restorer extension?

That is one of the things that I noticed as well when using this extension.<br />
Maybe contact its developer to see if this behavior can be changed. -
How do I identify which control is being hovered over?
Hello all,
I have a simple feature of my code I am working on. I want to have a detailed help box ( a little more detailed than the tooltip popup option) with instructions I want to print on my screen.
The idea is that when I have an active control, the instructions will print in a small text box to give people guidance on my program.
This works for half of what I want to do.
But in the case of a custom toolbar, I do not have that ability since I cannot click inside of it like a textbox.
I am using the tooltip, but I would like to be able to print a better, more detailed message in my help box.
Ideally what I would like to know if there is a function to be able to get which control is being highlighted or hovered over by panel and control id.
It's no big deal if there isn't one, but now I am curious.
Veni Vidi DuciHi,
if EVENT_GOT_FOCUS is not suitable for you another possibility could be to use a timer callback, and for every timer tick call GetRelativeMouseState (panel, 0, &x_coordinate, &y_coordinate, NULL, NULL, NULL); this will return the current position of the mouse cursor on the panel. To make use of it, at the beginning of your program you need to obtain the positions of your UI controls, e.g. using GetCtrlBoundingRect ( panel, control, &button.top, &button.left, &button.height, &button.width ). Then you need to check if the mouse is within a bounding box by comparing the mouse coordinate with the control coordinate...
But why are the tooltips not working for you? -
Is it possible to change the mouse cursor when hovering over a button in encore menu?
Thanks for the concern, Bill. I already understood it. It was En's way of differentiating menu links from another objects like simple backgrounds that I was worried aboutits cursorwhich I thought was that it would be anywhere my video will be played because it is what it was when I built my video. It's purely Encore's.
But I've got new problems to ask help for, just tell me if I have to make a new thread but I will just put it here for the mean time:
I wanted to make chapter indices. When I first made the command "Create Chapter Index", En said the menu does not contain a previous button so it has to make it for me, I clicked ok. But then it generated a "General Application error" message and, eventually failed to make the chapter index. I checked my project and found no error. What's the likely cause of this? -
Help, please - I need a box to pop-up when user hovers over a field with their mouse??
I created a form with several drop-down fields / questions. I would like to create a box that pops up when the person who is filling out the form hovers over the question/ field with his or her mouse. The box would contain additional information about the question that the person might consider before they select the answer. I don't want to clutter the form (and not all form-filler-outers will want or need to see the additional information) so I want it to pop up when the person hovers over the question with their mouse.
Can someone provide some help with how I can do this?
I'm still new to this.
Thank you!!!Hi,
To follow on from radzmar, here is a summary of the features that are available/restricted depending on how you deploy your form.
There are two ways to apply Reader rights, one is using Acrobat Standard (v9) or Acrobat Professional (v8). The other is using an Adobe server product called LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2.
You don't need script to apply the Reader rights to your form. Once you have applied the rights, users with Reader will be able to save the data in the form, however there may still be other restrictions in place, like attaching documents to the form or exporting XML data.
There summary is also available in PDF, with screen shots, here: http://assurehsc.ie/blog/index.php/2010/05/using-livecycle-forms-in-acrobat-and-reader/
Hope that helps,

How to measure the time the cursor hovered over an hot spot
Hi all,
I have a task in which participants have to make a decision with two options. Therefore, I have created two hotspots, one for each option. What I want to measure is the time that the mousecursor 'hovers' over each option before a choice has been made (one of the two hotspots clicked). So for instance: if a user first hovers 2,5 seconds above option 1, then goes to option 2, hovers there for .45 seconds, then goes to option 1 again, hovering for .5 seconds before clicking, I want to save those two values (2.5 + .5 = 3.0 s for option 1 and .45 s for option 2) when either hotspot is clicked. I was thinking of using a conditional in my interaction icon using something similar to ObjecOver (which gives which display icon the cursor is currently over), but then have something like HotspotOver (which does not exist). Does anyone know how I can accomplish measuring these hovertimes?
Regards,
FrankThe solution I came up with has five hotspots. First off a calculation icon: OptionTimes := [0,0]
Then the interaction with the hotspots: single click option 1, cursor in area option 1, single click option 2, cursor in area option 2, finally a hotspot surrounding all others
In the cursor in area type hotspot for option 1 I have the calculation:
Option := 1
OptionStartTime := SystemSeconds
Hopefully you can see where this is going. There's a similar calc for option 2 in the cursor in area option 2. It just sets the Option number to 2. In the last hotspot that surrounds the others I have this:
OptionTimes[Option] := OptionTimes[Option] + SystemSeconds - OptionStartTime
When the user hovers over an option and then leaves, the hotspot surrounding the others catches them and records the time they spent. You also need that same calc in the response path for the two options to catch the time taken looking at the option just before clicking in their choice.

Multiple Tooltips are not showing up when hovering over overlapping chart items
Hi!
I ran into a problem which I am unable to fix. Either I am missing something very obvious or this is a bug. I set up a LineChart with two series. One series has multiple overlapping data points, and both series overlap in one point.
Data tips are only getting displayed where the data points of the two different series overlap. Hovering over the overlapping points of a single series does not lead to multiple data tips being displayed. According to Flex SDK docs this should be possible.
Here's a simple example which shows the problem:

I use QVC online a lot. When hovering over a category heading in IE9 a drop down menu appears with detailed subheadings for that category. Is this feature available in Firefox versions 4 and 5? Is this something that can be turned on in Firefox 4 & 5? If so, how do I turn this feature on?
Hey Dave,
How did you get on with this?
Have you tried CSS position:fixed? I have been playign around with it on my own project (and in fact are just about to post a related question) and can confirm that it works with a plain old DIV.
SVG I can't be sure though..
Certainly give it a try.

In my work, I need to be able to look at photos I took throughout the day at various locations and group them by the time I was there on that date to distinguish the different properties I am taking photos of. In my previous version of PSE6, when the day's pictures were downloaded, they were downloaded to the computer in the order I took them, and if you hovered over the picture it would show the time the photo was taken. I just need a program that will organize in that fashion. I do not need a lot of editing options, more the organizational options.
Hi,
If you are happy with PSE 6, why not continue to use it?
PSE 13 can display the images in date/time order like PSE 6 does. The time doesn't appear when you hover over a thumbnail but can be displayed below the thumbnail. The best thing is for you to download the trial version (select version 13 from the following link) and try it for 30 days to see if you like it.
Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10
If you use the trial, to see the date and time under each thumbnail you need to go to the View menu in the organizer and ensure that Details is checked.
