How to display jpeg until user click play?

I am new to Flash 8 and am trying to get up to speed. I have
a flash video (inside a swf) on a website that displays a blank
screen until the view presses play. Instead of the blan screen, how
could I display a jpeg on the screen (via URL) until the user
presses play, at which point the jpeg dissappears and the movie
starts.
I would appreciate anyone who could point me to an example of
how to do this. Thanks!

How to display hourglass until request is finished

I want to display an hourglass (or alike) when a user clicks a button and has to wait several seconds until request is finished.
How can I do this?
Where can i find some simple examples?
Where can I find other 'objects' to be used instead of an hourglass?

package wait;
* WaitCursorDemo.java
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.SwingWorker;
import test.*;
public class WaitCursorDemo extends JFrame {
    private SwingWorker worker ;
    private JButton btStart;
    private JLabel lb;
    public WaitCursorDemo() {
        setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        setSize(400,300);
        setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        btStart = new JButton("Start");
        add(btStart, BorderLayout.NORTH);
        lb = new JLabel();
        add(lb);
        btStart.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(final ActionEvent e) {
                start();
    private void start(){
        worker = new SwingWorker() {
            protected Object doInBackground() throws Exception {
                setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
                lb.setText("Please wait...");
                try{Thread.sleep(3000);}catch(InterruptedException ex){}
                setCursor(Cursor.getDefaultCursor());
                lb.setText("Done");
                return null;
        worker.execute();
    public static void main(final String args[]) {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                new WaitCursorDemo().setVisible(true);
     If you don't have JDK6, you need to download and compile the "SwingWorker" source code
     to be able to use it. Here it is:
     http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/threads/src/SwingWorker.java
     The API is a little different:
        worker = new SwingWorker() {
            public Object construct() {
                setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
                lb.setText("Please wait...");
                try{Thread.sleep(3000);}catch(InterruptedException ex){}
                setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));
                lb.setText("Done");
                return null;
        worker.start();

Playback Skin - Audio only when user clicks play

This issue has been driving me nuts for quite some time. I know someone out there has the solution!
I would like an image to display with audio to run concurrently, but only when the user clicks the play button on the skin. I have a slide in Captivate3 with an imported image that has an mp3 attached to it. I've added one of Capitvate's Skins and published the project. The problem I have is that when the .swf is launched, the audio immediately starts playing.
Is there a way to get the a Captivate bundled skin to play in the filnal .swf only when the user dictates?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Melissa

Hi there
Try removing the audio from the Click Box itself. Then enable the Success caption with the Click Box. Attach the audio to the Success Caption (It has an Audio tab).
If you don't want to see the caption, choose the Transparent type and don't enter any text.
Cheers... Rick

How to display a seperate right click menu for each item of a tree control?

Hi I want to display a specific right click menu when a particular tree item is selected. I know how to create a menu and how to display it. I am using the function GetLabelFromIndex() to get the active tree item and then compare the label and based on the result display a manu for that item. Now my problem is that when I use the above function in the EVENT_RIGHT_CLICK it gives me the error "the Index passed is out of range" while using the same function with the same arguments in EVENT_SELECTION_CHANGE it gives no error...below is the part of my code
case EVENT_RIGHT_CLICK:
GetLabelFromIndex(panelHandle, PANEL_TREE, eventData2, label1);
//The function gives the stated error here
if(eventData1)//after it I compare the result and display the menu
case EVENT_SELECTION_CHANGE:
GetLabelFromIndex (panelHandle, PANEL_TREE, eventData2, label1);
//The function works fine here
if (eventData1)
If any one have any idea whats going on or alternate way of doing this Please share knowledge...Thanks
If you are young work to Learn, not to earn.

Hi,
one possible approach of solving this problem is looking closer at the error message: The error "the Index passed is out of range" tells you that something is wrong with the index, either it is too small or too large So why don't you set a breakpoint and check the index value, it might be useful information...
The other hint is to check the meaning of eventdata2 (using the help): It is different for different events! For the event_right_click it gives the horizontal mouse position, not the index as event_selection_change does...

Keys don't register until user clicks

I've created a game using AIR for Android. I added support for Xperia with it's dPad. It does register the dPad, but only after the user clicks on the screen.
Any idea why this is happening? How can I have it automatically start registering keystrokes from the dPad without having the user touch the screen?
John

None seem to be visually stuck. I did try to press all letter/symbol keys to see which ones are working.
I'll try all keys tonight.
Lenovo support didn't have a solution either, they said the same thing send it for a replacement.
I didn't get any of the other issues that some people are having so I'm reluctant to send it away and wait for a few month to get a replacement

How to disable button once user click once in an Applet?

Hi,
We are facing an issue with Applet level button.
User is clicking multiple times on button and we don't want to allow users to click multiple times.
So that How to disable the button after clicking once.
Thanks,
Sandep.

Since you don't saying what version of Siebel you are on, I assume
8.0 or later.
You can use this on if you applet class is CSSFrame, CSSFrameList, or any of their subclasses.
On the applet add, Applet User Prop:
Name
CanInvokeMethod: InvokeWF
Value
[DisableButton]='N' OR [DisableButton] IS NULL
More info here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B40099_02/books/ToolsDevRef/ToolsDevRef_UserProps6.html
On the applet add, Applet User Prop:
Name
Named Method
Value
"InvokeWF", "SET", "DisableButton", "Y"
More info here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B40099_02/books/ToolsDevRef/ToolsDevRef_UserProps21.html
Make sure the field DisableButton is active (Use Force Active on BC if the field isn't active)
Make sure the field has "Immediate Post Changes" set to true on the BC.
Axel
PS: Don't use scripts if you can solve the problem with user props, WF, .... Scripting should
be you last resort.

Disable next button until user click an object button (captivate 6)

I would like to disable the next button on a slide until the user clicks on a certain object.
I also would like to show a warning pop up message that appears and disappear when the user clicks next button before clicking the required object.
Thanks!
Jay

But you want the Next button to be visible?
What is that ' certain object'? Can you turn it into an interactive object, which is possible with smart shapes? Create a user variable v_click with a default value of 0. To the 'object' that has become interactive, add the standard action 'Assign v_click with 1'. The value of that variable will be checked in the conditional action that is attached to the Next Button.
For the Next button create this conditional action:
IF v_click is equal to 0
    Show popup message
ELSE
    Hide popup message
    Go to Next Slide

How do I make the video show a screenshot before the user clicks play?

Hey everyone. I didn't want to bother you with this, but I
couldn't find anything in the knowledge base or forums for "poster
frame" or "pre-play frame." Maybe the search function wasn't
working.
How do I make it so the video displays a freeze frame with a
play button prior to playing?
I already know how to extract a freeze frame (from the
non-linear editing program I'm using). Just wondering how to make
it the pre-play picture. Thanks!

I'm trying to do the same thing with a picture on top of an
FLVPlayback video, and I can't seem to find the information I need
either!
It appears to be easy if you do it all in flash, but if you
don't know flash, well......

Flash game problem: Game wont start until user clicks stage

Hi Everyone,
I'm a student at Drexel University and I just completed a basic platformer for a actionscript class. My professor docked me some points for the game not working until the user actually clicks within the swf. I've heard that this problem is caused on mac osx, but I don't have any concrete evidence to get the points back. Can anyone help? Here's a link to the game if you want to check it out. Thanks a lot!
http://sandbox.westphal.drexel.edu/~kg394/DIGM265.html

It was also required on my PC using IE8, so your Mac theory is out. If it requires that you set focus on the stage to get it running, then you probably want to have focus set there using code as soon as the game section starts... but I usually have a heck of a time managing focus with actionscript... regardless of how they say to implement it, it tends to not work for me on any reliable basis (probably just Murphy's Law).

Quicktime won't play files until I click play

Running QT 7.6.6 on windows XP.
Has anyone seen this? If I double-click on a file (for example a lossless m4a file), QT fires up but instead of playing the file it just sits there doing nothing with the hourglass waiting there. When I press play, it plays the file but I still have the hourglass.
This happens with all files - audio, movies whatever and all file tyoes. If I associate the files with a diffent media player I can double-click and play them fine (e.g. in VLC), but when I re-associate then with Quicktime, the problem is not fixed, i.e. QT doesn't play automatically.
I have tried a repair install of QT. Also downloaded and installed latest 7.6.6 version. Still the same.
Anyone any idea what's causing this and how to fix it? More of an irritation than anything, but I would like it working "properly".
Thanks

b noir wrote:
Not sure that this is the answer, but it seems worth a try (at least as a deck-clearing exercise).
Open your QuickTime Player and go "Edit > Preferences > Player Preferences".
Is "Automatically play movies when opened" checked? If not, try checking that and clicking OK.
Do the movies play automatically now?
DOH! How easy was that! Yes, that fixed it. I feel so stupid!
Thanks

How to display active directory users through weblogic portal Application?

Hi,
Does anyone has faced this situation?
I configured the activedirectory and able to see the users and group in the weblogic console at Security->Realms->Myrealm->users. when I run my portal application,I am able to see only the users that are configured in embedded weblogic LDAP ie, I can see only the users weblogic,portaladmin and yahooadmin that are of defaultauthenticator provider.I need to display the active directory users also in our portal.
I have two doubts on this?
1)Is it I need to write custom code to view the active directory users in our portal?
2)Does I need to use any jars that supports active directory authenticator?
I would appreciate if any one can reply on this with helpfull docs/information.
