How do I display time remaining in a captivate published video so the learning can know how much time is remaining in a video

After I publish my video it just plays but there is no indication of how much time is remaining on the video while watching. How do I display this

It is possible, but you have to know 'time' is bit different, depending if you are talking about the 'editors' time or the real time spent by the the trainee. Have a look at this old blog post, that tries to explain:
http://blog.lilybiri.com/display-time-information
Time can show on the TOC (editors time), and if you have a playbar with a progress bar that gives some indication as well, but both for pure linear projects.

How much do I need to know?

Hello. I'm in the process of learning J2EE. The benefits of knowing as much as possible are self-evident, but as we all know, J2EE is a broad subject. If you were hiring someone to be a J2EE developer, what would you expect that person to know? I'm figuring, at least Java, servlets, JSPs and Java Beans, and maybe some framework like Struts. Can anyone else add anything I'm leaving out? Thanks.

Here's a simple MVC design approach I previously posted: http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10786901
I believe a large number of jobs involve creating a web site that accesses a database, displays the data (say, as a form using JSP), allows the user to alter the records, and save it back to the database. Also, be able to insert new records and delete records. I suggest creating a project based on the link above and refactor it over and over again to perfect it. Next, review it to ensure is safe for concurrent access by more than one person at a time. Only then you can consider a framework such as Struts or Spring. My suggestion is to read a lot of books on J2EE topics such as Java, JSP/Servlets, JDBC, XHTML, SQL, etc, etc, and etc.

How to display time duration (NOT dates) with an input mask in a JTable?

Background: I am trying to display in a JTable, in two columns, the start position and time duration of an audio clip.
They are stored as type float internally eg. startPosition = 72.7 seconds.
However I wish to display on screen in the table in HH:mm:ss:S format. eg. 00:01:12:7. The user can edit the cell and input values to update the internal member fields.
Problem: I am finding it very difficult to implement this - what with the interactions of MaskFormatter, DefaultCellEditor etc.
Also using SimpleDateFormat and DateFormatter does not work as they insist on displaying the day, month, year also in the table cell.
Taking the Swing Tutorial TableFTFEditDemo example as a template,
(http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/example-1dot4/index.html#TableFTFEditDemo)
does anyone know how to do this?
I can post my (buggy) modifications to the example code - if it would help.
Appreciate any help.
thanks,
Anil

"How much time remaining" widget

I can't seem to find a widget or a way of displaying how much time is remaining on my parental controlled account - my teenager fights tooth and nail against the account but at least with other software, there was a countdown displayed so she could start saying goodbye to friends, saving stuff, etc. Is there something that can show how much time is remaining?

How to get/display time with minutes in a test item

Dear experts,
Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)
Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
Oracle Toolkit Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)
PL/SQL Version 10.1.0.4.2 (Production)I've the following requirements.
In my form, there are three text items and one save button.
Text items named as
No_of_days --> Number data type
(user will enter number of days)
hours_limit --> Char data type with format mask (HH:MI);
(user will enter hours with minutes)
Upto_date_time --> date data type;
this field calculated as (No_of_days+hours_limit+sysdate)
User will enter No_of_days or hours_limit:
Based on the values I've to calculate Upto_date_time
Here is the problem:
1) If user doesn't enter hours_limit I want to show default time as " 04:00 PM"
2) If user enter hours_limit field we should allow them to enter in the following format
"HH24:MI" format;
what whould be suitable data type for hours_limit field..
I tried with char and i've set the format mask as ,
set_item_property('BLOCK3.hours_limit',format_mask,'HH:MI');
But I'm geeting the error
"FRM-50027:Invalid format mask for given datatype"
Please help to solve this problem,
Regards,
Karthi

Hi vansul ,
set_item_property('BLOCK3.hours_limit',format_mask,'HH:MI');
Format mast is only allowed to date data type fields.If i set the hours_limit item's data type as date , I'm getting the error message "ORA-01843:Not a valid month"..
How could i make this field only getting or display time with minutes?

How to Display Time-Dependent Characteristic Data In Query

Hi Experts,
   I have encountered a problem. I want to use Time-Dependent Chart. And want to display different value according characteristc's valid from time. For Example,
The Characteristic 0COSTCENTER has the navigation attribute 0COMPANY, The data as:
0COSTCENTER   Valid from   Valid To       0COMPANY
BW2305              20070101   20070430     A
BW2305              20070501   99991231     B
I want the report can display as :
0COSTCENTER   Valid from   Valid To       0COMPANY AMOUNT
BW2305              20070101   20070430     A                  1000

But when I set the query's key date 20070420, the report display as:
0COSTCENTER   Valid from   Valid To       0COMPANY AMOUNT
BW2305              20070101   20070430     A                  1000

when I set the query's key date 20070520, the report display as:
0COSTCENTER   Valid from   Valid To       0COMPANY AMOUNT
BW2305              20070101   20070430     B                 1000

Can anybody tell me how I can get report expected.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
1) Add the characterstics 0COSTCENTER ,0DATETO,DATEFROM and 0COMPANY to the cube.
2) And also add these 4 IOs to the Communication structures which has update rules with the concern cube.
3) I hope , you already have 0COSTCENTER in the Commnication structure and mapping for that infoobject at both Update rules and Transfer rules.
4) Leave to the Blank(no mapping) mappings for the IOs 0DATETO,DATEFROM and 0COMPANY in the Transfer rules.But make 1:1 mapping in the Update rules for these 2 infoobjects.
5) Write the below code in the strt routine of the Update rules:
TYPES: BEGIN OF type4.
      include structure like /BI0/QCOSTCENTER.
TYPES END OF type4.
DATA:
ITAB4 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF TYPE4
       WITH HEADER LINE
       WITH NON-UNIQUE DEFAULT KEY INITIAL SIZE 0.
SELECT * FROM /BI0/QCOSTCENTER INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS
OF TABLE ITAB4
WHERE OBJVERS = 'A'.
loop at DATA_PACKAGE.
     READ TABLE ITAB4 WITH KEY COSTCENTER = DATA_PACKAGE-MATERIAL
DATETO LE DATA_PACKAGE-PSTNG_DATE
DATEFROM GE DATA_PACKAGE-PSTNG_DATE.
              IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
                DATA_PACKAGE-DATETO = ITAB4-DATETO.
                DATA_PACKAGE-DATEFROM = ITAB4-DATEFROM.
                DATA_PACKAGE-COMP_CODE = ITAB4-COMP_CODE.
              ENDIF.
              Modify DATA_PACKAGE.
endloop.
ABORT = 0.
Here I assumed you have Posting date in the Communication structure and used to map to Fiscalperiod of the cube.
6) Do the Master data upload to Cost center and active the master data of it always before uploading the data to cube.
7) Do the uploading to cube from Sratch.

How do you change Slide Display time

I have a slide which has a 30 sec display time. I want to change it to 6 secs. So I go to slide propteries and change display time to 6. I click OK but it make no difference. When I look at the properties again, the time is set back to 30 secs !
How do i change the slide display time?

Thank you. That has solved a number of my problems. The time line does not appear by default on a new installation. In fact it was quite tricky to get it visible but it is now.

How to access "Display Time" / Slide Duration variable?

I'm using Adobe Captivate 4, and I'm trying to programmatically access the "Display Time" for the current slide (ie: the slide duration).
How do I do that? I've looked through all the system variables in the actions dialog but to no avail.

Hi Lilybiri,
I retried it this morning and it works for me. Here are some pointers:
I think it's a coincidence if CP hung when inserting the animation. It never did for me and I inserted it before and after. It's a possibility but I doubt.
Make sure that slide1Duration is written with a lowercase "s" and a capital "D". I noticed that you wrote it with a capital "S".
It works in TC and RollOver TC but it's not working with the click box captions. However, I could not get a standard variable like $$CaptivateVersion$$ to appear in the CB caption either.
I really think that your issue lies with the capital "S". Give it a try.
Finally, I'm not a good person to recommend books. I have learned AS2 and AS3 just from the Adobe help file. I never read a book or tutorial beside the help. Also, my background being a s/w developer, catching up with AS3 was not that much of an issue since I understand all the OO (Object Oriented) concepts. If you ever have questions about AS3, let me know and I'll try to help you out.

How can Maximum Display Time in Chart Recorder be increased to hours/days?

Error message displayed when Recorder Display Time (X-Axis) is increased beyond ~0.25 hours, saying maximum display time has been reached. MUST be able to display time in range of days - although since data display rate (not Dasylab sampling rate, display rate separately controlled through pulse generator) is very slow (i.e. 1 sample/5 minutes, 0.0033Hz) total data quantity is not large.
Please help..there must be a way around this!! Thanks

The maximum display time in the Chart Recorder is based on a computation of how much memory is available to be allocated. The computation includes the block size, sample rate, as well as the amount of memory on the computer.
To display more time, you must reduce the amount of data to reduce the effective sampling rate being charted. You can use the Average Module or the Separate module to accomplish this.
There are some conditions where the actual sampling rate and the channel sampling rate are not the same - triggered data is an example of this, and data from the RS232 Input and ICOMS Input may be labeled in a way that leads the Chart Recorder to believe that the data channel has more data than it does.
Please provide more information about your application - what is the data source of the data that you are displaying, what is the sampling rate and block size? How much memory does your computer have?

If the OP is asking about the notifications generated by the new
Notifications Center feature then the above won't do any good. The above
setting only impacts the old style notifications generated by applications
that have icons in the system tray area of the task bar.

How do I display decimal hour as time? Example, I created a formula (originally in Exel) where the result is 2.25. I need this to be displayed as 2:15, (2h, 15m). Here is the formula in cell b8 =SUM((A6/18)*B3 (B6/8)*B3 (A6 B6)/70*B3 B2)/60

How to display time/date on bottom task bar windows 7

How do I get the time and date to display on the bottom taskbar, I deleted it when I was trying to clear
browsing on google and now can't figure out how to retrieve it. Thank you

A couple of notes regarding others' helpful posts:
The small icons is sort of a red herring - there is nothing about small icons that prohibits the date from showing, but if your taskbar is only one row high, there will not be enough space to SEE the date with small icons. I use small icons and a two row
taskbar. To make it two (or more) rows, just hover the mouse over the top edge of the taskbar and click-drag upward.
Alo, I had re-formated my date as dddd, MMM d, and all was swell - suddenly, today the date disappeared! After much frustration, I realized that "Wednesday, Nov. 23" was just too long for the space allotted! I changed the format to "ddd, MMM d" and it suddenly
appeared. I don't understand why MS can just expand the clock are to fit what's there...
best regards,
Ian

My icf-C303 clock radio started displaying time in the 24hr format, how do I reset to 12hr format?

My ICF-C303 clock radio started displaying time in 24hr format, how do I reset to 12hr format? The owners manual does not say anything about the time format.

I'm the OP and just read https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5817181 which attempts to outline the error in mavericks with regards to ntpd and pacemaker. I think just replacing the -302.642 with 0.00002 will keep me closer to the mark and I'll anxiously await the real fix as well--in 10.9.2 [hope x3] unless of course someone really knows how to fix this.

How much time an LCD screen can stay on and displaying images?

Suppose I'm rendering on the new '27 iMac, how much time the LCD screen can stay on and displaying the same image? (Like the desktop, or a very slow progress bar).
And, if there is a difference, how much time it can stay simply on and showing differents images?
I have to use a screen saver? (but it consume some power to the rendering) If yes, after how much time? And what kind of screen saver, simply black screen or somethig animated?
I have to turn off the display only? (but this can conflict with some particular software...) If yes, after how much time?
Thanks.
