How to create a special effect for 'wipe' and 'wheel'

New to Captivate. Recently purchased Captivate 7. I'm trying to obtain an object 'add effect' similar to the "wipe" (from left) and the "wheel" animation effects found in PowerPoint. I want to simulate hand-drawing an emphasis line under text. I have a .png graphic of a hand-drawn red line (transparent background) that I'd like to appear by "wiping" from left to right. The "stretch" effect (from left to right) found in Captivate's "Add Effect" doesn't look right; it's obviously a 'stretch' instead of a 'wipe'.  Likewise, I would like to hand-draw a circle or oval around certain text or other objects to draw attention to these items. The "wheel" animation in PowerPoint works perfectly for this.
Is there a way to do this in Captivate? Maybe some variation of one of the built-in effects that I've missed? Camtasia Studio has "sketch motion graphics" built in - which also does this nicely.

Thanks for the info on Infosemantics and their widgets. As a Newbie I wasn't aware of them and their cool, useful products. However, after going through all the tutorials I couldn't figure out how the 'slider' widget would serve my need to simulate a hand-drawn line, from left to right, under text on a Captivate 7 slide. Yes, it can be used to animate (or move) any object, but not to "reveal" an object like the "wipe" animation in other programs.
I'm thinking now that it would be easier to just build an animated GIF or a small flash file to show a hand-drawn red line moving from left to right. I have Flash CS4 but have never used it. Something else new to learn.
Thanks again.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting the screen shots I have been unsuccessful in determining exactly where the problem is coming from. Would it be possible for you to post the actual VI so that I can work with it so see if I can reproduce this issue using your code? In regard to your questions:
    1.    You are correct 1000 samples read should write 1000 samples to the table
    2.    I believe the discrepancy is due to amount of manipulation done between the read and the file write but I cannot be certain, without the code to work with.
    3.     I am unclear as to exactly what is happening. If you are reading empty channels then you may receive erroneous readings this is to be expected. When you connected your accelerometer did you connect in RSE or differential? You can also manipulate the signal range with will affect the gain setting, how off are the readings?

  • How to create stop/start effect for tilt/shift

    Hi I was wondering how to get the animated look I have seen with tilt/shift videos. I want to record my scenes using my Canon 5D Mk2 in video mode rather than use time lapse and increase my shutter count. So after I have shot my video with my Tilt/shift lens I want to create the jittered video effect in FCP, any help would be appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

    you can maybe have a play with the Video Filters > Video > Strobe effect, see if that gets you where you want to go

  • How to create a "Pressed" effect for WPF Button?

    Hi,
    I've been searching for quite sometime but I'm not able to find a way to give a "Pressed" effect to a button when it is clicked, a la "Popup" style in C#.
    Could someone help me in this regard?
    Currently I'm using the following code for setting up a circular button.
    <Button x:Name="btnNew" Content="Delivery Note" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="512,147,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="63" Height="63" BorderThickness="0" Click="Button_Click_1"
    Cursor="Hand" Padding="1,1,1,1" UseLayoutRounding="True" >
                <Button.Effect>
                    <DropShadowEffect ShadowDepth="2" />
                </Button.Effect>
                <Button.Template>
                    <ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
                        <Grid>
                            <Ellipse Stroke="Black">
                                <Ellipse.Fill>
                                    <ImageBrush ImageSource="Images/Delivery.png">
                                    </ImageBrush>
                                </Ellipse.Fill>
                            </Ellipse>
                        </Grid>
                    </ControlTemplate>
                </Button.Template>
            </Button>
    Thanks

    Not a popup control. 
    In Visual Studio 2008, in Button properties there is a property called "FlatStyle" in which there is an option "Popup". The button gives a click effect when an user clicks on it. Currently that button effect is not there in the Wpf button
    that I am trying to create.
    Thanks.
    This isn't explicit enough.
    In windows forms there is a popup effect on the flatstyle enumeration.
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.flatstyle(v=vs.110).aspx
    Is that what you mean?
    It says
    A control appears flat until the mouse pointer moves over it, at which point it appears three-dimensional.
    But that is mouse over rather than clicked,
    Could you please describe what you mean?
    You want it to look like what before it;s clicked and what after it's clicked?
    And is mouse over involved or not?
    In WPF there is something called a toggle button.
    You click and it sets IsChecked = true.
    Click again and it sets IsChecked = False.
    You could use that to drive a trigger and that trigger could do something to the look of the button.
    There is also visual states you could use.

  • Need a how to on a special case for views and view links

    I have a typical many-to-many relationship model I'm working on.
    Basically, it looks like this:
    User 1 -------------< * UserGroupXref *>--------------- 1 Groups
    You see this in authentication modules all the time. A user can belong to multiple groups and group can contain multiple users.
    My task is to use Business Components to create a form that manages user accounts. This form will consist of a User View (master) and 2 detail views.
    The first detail view is a list of groups already assigned to the user. I've already defined a viewlink for this first group and it displays its many-to-many results ok.
    The second detail view is a list of groups that are available to be assigned to the user. I was thinking that this detail view should be the product of a MINUS operation driven by a BIND VARIABLE. Being a query based view, I think its query would look something like this:
    select group_id, group_short_name, group_long_name
    from groups
    minus
    select xref.group_id group_id , group_short_name, group_long_name
    from usergroupxref xref, groups
    where xref.user_id = :bind_uid
    and groups.group_id = xref.group_id
    This introduces a bind variable which raises two questions:
    1) Is there a better approach
    2) How do you use a friggin bind variable?
    Seriously, I noticed that the designer will not let you define a relationship based on a bind variable, which leads me to conclude that you have to pass the value at runtime from whatever client app you're using (SWING, JSF, etc). I really haven't found an example of using bind variables that suites me! Maybe someone can point me in the right direction ...?
    Finally I have to add control buttons :
    Add Group
    Add All
    Remove All
    Remove Group
    Naturally these buttons control the inserts and deletes from the xref table. Does this introduce another updateable view into the app or is it something that the framework somehow handles via the defined associations and what not?
    I don't expect anyone to design the form for me, but maybe you can help me at least finish up these view links.
    Thanks much!

  • How can create a function module for currency and quantity fields

    hi,
    i want to create a function module with some fields.when i activated it give some errors for 
    netpr,menge,wemng  fields(currency, quantity fields).error is it asks for reference fields. 
    please send me solution for it.
    sreenu.

    Hi Sreenu,
    While creating CURRENCY/QUANTITY fields in the DataBase Table, you have to enter a REFERENCE TABLE and a REFERENCE FIELD to the field.
    For that, after entering the field name and the data type in the correcponding columns, you have to place the cursor on the data type of the required field and click the CURRENCY/QUANTITY FIELDS tab. You will find two columns called REFERENCE TABLE and a REFERENCE FIELD.
    you have to enter a reference table in which a currency/quantity field is used and a reference field which is a currency/quantity field in that table.
    For Example, below is the table details.
    FIELD DATATYPE LENGTH DEC.PLACES REF.TABLE REF.FIELD
    1.SNO     CHAR 5
    2.AMOUNT  CURR 10     2          T001      WAERS
    3.NOS     QUAN 5                 KNA1      /VSO/R_PAL_UL
    Here Field 2(AMOUNT) is a CURR field whose Ref. Table is T001 and Ref. Field is WAERS and Field 3(NOS) is a QUAN field whose Ref. Table is KNA1 and Ref. Field is /VSO/R_PAL_UL.
    Hope this will help you.

  • How to create a private network for OCFS2 in OVS 2.2.1

    Does anyone know how to create a separate netwok for ocfs2 and leave the regular vm traffic on the main network.
    I have done the following
    - configured 3 vm servers connected fia fibre channel to a SAN
    - Bonded 2 network cards on each server to provide 1 bridge on each. (172 network)
    - Installed a 3rd network card in each server and configured on a 10 network with a separate switch.
    so my servers are called bart, lisa, flanders
    I can communicate between them effectively and the VM manager on a different server can talk to them all.
    I have also configured entries for bart2, lisa2, flanders2
    which are on the 10 network. I can ping and talk between these successfully.
    I can't however configure the cluster.conf to use the bart2, lisa2, flanders2 as it has a problem with the names not matching the local name of the machine.
    Im not sure if changing the server name will affect the VM agent.

    Basically, Oracle VM uses the IP address you specify when adding the Oracle VM server to configure OCFS2 and Live
    Migration. So you should use the private ip when adding the server.
    Then, the "regular" VM guests network traffic will be on the network/bridge/bond the guest itself belongs to.
    Maybe this old thread would be interesting for you to read:

    I worked on this challenge a bit and came up with the following:
    Open picture file
    Duplicate background layer, work on background copy layer, shut off visibility of background layer by clicking on its eye icon. I do this so that if you want to start over again, you can just delete the newly generated layers.
    Create a new, blank layer at the top of the stack, fill this with 50% gray (Edit>fill layer>50% gray), Mode:overlay
    Go to Filter>sketch>Halftone pattern. Adjust size &  contrast. Pattern type:line
    Soften this a bit with Filter>noise>median - set radius to suit
    Still working on layer at top of stack with 50% gray, apply eraser tool to remove unwanted striping.
    Go to Image>transform>skew to achieve desired curvature of stripes
    Reduce opacity of this layer to suit.
    An alternative may be to take a picture of a venetian blind with light behind it, define this as a pattern (Edit>define pattern), then apply this pattern in a layer. I can't try this since we don't have venetian blinds.

  • How to create the Access sequence for the Vendor+material+plant combination

    Hi all
    Please let me know How to create the Access sequence for the Vendormaterialplant combination..
    Whats the use? What its effect in purhcase and taxe..
    brief me please

    Hi,
    you are asked to maintain the access sequence for the tax condition for which you are putting 7.5%.
    goto OBQ1 or img..financial accounting new...global settings.... taxes on sales and purchases ......basic settings.....
    find the tax condition type. see in it which access sequence is attached.
    if there is none then use JTAX used for taxes in India.
    or you can create the similar one for your.
    to create the same goto OBQ2.
    new entry or copy JTAX.
    and assign the access sequence to condition type.
    this will resolve your problem if you just need to assign the access sequence.

  • How do I apply special effects to a track when I keep getting error message that "Could not find layout Default Reverb GB"?

    How do I apply special effects to a track in GarageBand when I keep getting error message that says"Could not find layout Default Reverb GB"?

    I go to  Applications to see if
    GarageBand has changed and dthere is no change, still 1.42GB of file size ‹
    no evidence of the 10+ GB that the installer told me I was downloading, no
    evidence in my download folder that I downloded anything, and most
    important, when I click on ³Effects² I¹m back to the same error  message.
    I¹ve been at this now for about 3 hours.
    Downloading the extra content will take a very long time.
    When the download has finished, the prompt for the password will appear and the installer will continue to run in the background.
    Let t run. As long as GarageBand is still installing, it will give a warning, when you try to quit.
    When you can quit GarageBand without a warning, restart your Mac.
    The size of the GarageBand application will not change, but you should be seeing more loops. They are installed in the System Library, and the folder "Library" on your Macintosh HD should by now be 10GB larger.
