How can you trigger more than 1 advanced action?

I wonder if someone can answer a very quick question for me that I'm struggling with at the moment
I have 6 stacks of 16 images. I have the user select the name of the image they want to show in each stack, and then I have an advanced action that runs to show only the image they have selected. Currently I have 6 actions, one for each stack of images.
What I need to do is to run all 6 advanced actions as the user enters a page so they only see the 6 images they have selected on the previous slide. My problem is that I can only seem to run one advanced action upon slide entry (or from a button or anything else). Is there a way to combine advanced actions, or to run more than one action from a single command? Or does this require a different approach?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks Lilybiri and RonWard,
I guess I could have been clearer in my question.
I'm using Cp5 and to give you an idea of what I'm doing I've pasted an image of the slide I'm playing with below.
Each image you see here is actually a stack of 16 images that are hidden on slide enter. There is a combo box under each stack that allows the user to choose the name of the image they want to use, and the button triggers an advanced action that shows the image that has been selected.
Ultimately what I intend to do is to move the combo boxes to the previous slide, and on slide enter only the 6 six selected images will be shown. I'm then going to use a drag and drop widget to create a question about of all of this. The teacher will select which 6 images are relevant to their students, enter some information (definitions, quotes etc) that are related to each image, and the students will have to drag them to the correct image / icon.
So... I've created 6 advanced actions, one for each stack of images. (I suspect that was my mistake).
I've attached an image of the action. For each Action there are 16 parts to it. One for each image. You can see here that the action is fairly simple. It just checks the variable that comes form the combo box, and if it has been selected, then it shows the appropriate image. If not it just moves onto the next part of the action which checks for the next image being selected.
There is one action for each stack of images - so 6 actions. If there was a way to combine them it would be very helpful - but I'm suspecting that's not possible. Alternatively if there was a way to trigger all of them together that would work - but again I don't think that's possible. So what are my options.
Finally, and here's the biggy that I don't think can be done. As I eluded to above. The idea here is that a teacher will set this up and a student will then complete the activity. Is there anyway for the teacher, without Captivate, to select these images and enter some other variables, and have that information propagated across a network so many students can use the project with the variables the teacher enters just once?
Thanks heaps for your help. This forum is great. I'll spend some time reading the blogs mentioned also. I'm so thrilled that Captivate is finally letting me do some of the elearning things I've wanted to do for years. I'm a teacher by training and now consulting and building resources for schools.
Thanks again
James

  • How can I burn more than 1 movie to a DVD when there is room on the disc for it. Premiere wants to overwrite once 1 movie is burned to the disc

    How can I burn more than 1 movie onto a DVD? Once 1 movie is burned successfully to the disc, I try to burn another movie and Premiere wants to overwrite the first movie. One movie is 1.2 GB, second is 2.3; so there is room on a 4.7 GB DVD-RW.

    What you report is what it is.
    Each burn to of Timeline content to DVD-VIDEO format on DVD disc results in the disc containing one OpenDVD Folder and one VIDEO_TS Folder.
    Only one VIDEO_TS Folder can be put on a DVD-VIDEO disc even when Premiere Elements is not involved. I have seen that written about online, and I have
    never found a way to overcome what seems to be basic behavior description of DVD-VIDEO..
    Premiere Elements will allow you to write to a disc with content already on it, but only after you give the OK for erasing the disc content before going ahead
    with the burn to.
    If you have several movies, one possibility is to build a Timeline with the movies, use stop markers, and setup disc menus according so that the viewer
    can selectively watch the movies. More on that later if wanted.
    Any questions or need clarification, please ask.
    Thank you.

  • When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

    When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

    I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.

  • How can I get more than one firewre port ?

    Hello,
    how can I get more than one firewire port ? I'd like to be able to connect my canon HV30 camera as well as my firewire external HD at the same time so I can use firewire to upload the videos I've taken. Is this possible?
    TIA

    Hi ginestre-
    Many FireWire hard drives have 2 firewire ports so that you can daisy-chain devices and connect the camera that way.
    Daisy-chaining is not the most reliable method, but it works, so you could buy a FireWire hub.
    Luck-

  • How can I reference more than one jar file

    hi, In an applet, I use
    Archive = "foo.jar" to reference this jar file.
    But how can I reference more than one file?
    Thanks.

    Suggestion: spend a few minutes reading the tutorials.
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/applet/appletsonly/html.html
    You can specify multiple archive files by separating them with commas:
    <APPLET CODE="myapplet.class" ARCHIVE="file1, file2"     WIDTH=anInt HEIGHT=anInt>
    </APPLET>

  • In Imovie '11, how can I drag more than one set of video clips to my project?

    In  Imovie '11, how can I drag more than one set of video clips into my project.  I know how to highlight in yellow and drag the set, but can I drag a group of sets?  Thanks

    To select multiple clips, hold down the command key as you click multiple clips. Then you can drag them all at once.
    To drag all clips at once, select one, then Edit/Select All. Then drag them all.

    Hi Ganguly,
    It is possible to have more than one main window in a same page.
    You create a main window and simply you copy and past it in the same page.. it will create first main window name as MAIN and other main windows as MAIN01,MAIN02.... up to MAIN99.
    Contets flow from MAIN , MAIN01, MAIN02.......................MAIN99. contents after filling the current window it flows to next window(by default, you skip as well with some keyword not sure could be NEW-WINDOW)
    you want print the main window data twice? or you want to create two main window in the same page ?
    1. give two copies in the no of copies in the output type screen ( Which pop up is coming after excute the program ).
    2. create two page with the same script form.
    3. you can write the coding inside the program to print twice the same page.
    Hope this information use full to you..

    Or, to send up to 5 photos in one email, open the Photos app, go to the Album containing the photos, tap Select, tap up to 5 photos (a blue tick will appear on them), then tap the Share icon (square with arrow pointing up) and choose Mail.
    If you choose more than 5 photos this way, you won't get the Mail option.

  • HT1657 Can you rent more than one movie at the same time?

    Can you rent more than one movie at the same time on itunes?

    I think Justin is correct and you should have statistics in place and a reasonable partition scheme so that the optimizer selects the correct partitions rather than telling it what to do. You paid a lot for partitioning after all.
    There are some, possibly misguided, examples in the manuals showing how to create a view so you can delete from a single partition without specifying the partition criteria in the delete statement. This in effect turns partitioning back into DIY partitioning i.e. separate tables, union all and pretend its a single logical table using a view. But backwards.
    So to do what you want you just assume the partitions are separate tables, and then use union all to glue the ones you want back together.
    select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2000)
    union all
    select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2001)
    union all
    select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2003)
    union all
    select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2004);It probably goes without saying that as well as making the expensive version of partitioning behave like the free alternative, there is the possibility that it will perform like it as well.
