How to loop an animation

Hi
i have used a flash animation (that was given in default captivate library). i want to loop it but when i click in properties. i cant see any loop option. not even in options tab as mentioned in captivate help.
thnx in advance

Hi there
In addition to what Joe offered up I'll add this.
If you are creating an animation in Flash to drop into a Captivate, make sure you animate by creating a Movie Clip. As I understand it, you may animate in Flash by manipulatng the main timeline or by creating a Movie Clip. If you animate on the Main Timeline, it won't loop in Captivate. But if you animate via a Movie Clip, it will.

Could someone please help and show me how to loop an animation twice? Sorry I am a beginner.

I am using flash cc and have created an animation. I just need some help on how to loop the movie twice and stop. Thanks.

Try this...
In frame 1 put the following code:
     var count;
In the last frame put the following code:
     if(!count){
           count = 1;
     } else {
           stop();

Looping an animation

Hi everyone,
Im new to the forum and to Flash but Ive already checked out a bunch of books on Flash from the library. I still havent figured out this one thing thats been troubling me.
I was wondering how to loop an animation. For example, an escalator animation. Ive drawn in the escalator shown from the bottom and now I want to motion tween it to where the stairs move down. How do I loop it so that when the stairs that I drew are starting to go down, they simultaneously start at the top again. Does this involve 2 drawings of the same thing? Also any tips on easily scaling these types of point of view animations?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Normally, if you create a movieclip that animates along a timeline, it will automatically loop unless you place a stop(); command in the last frame.
If you are using Flash to draw the animation, due to the vector graphics, it will scale quite nicely. If you are using bitmap images, then you don't have as much freedom.

Issue with looping swf animation - conflicting settings

I have a captivate project where I use a click box “stop” to inhibit the slide from moving to the next slide. (The click box set to no action, pause until user clicks.)
This forces the user (using the player control) to click the “forward” button to advance to the next slide. This is by design.
I have a Flash swf file embedded in one of the slides. This Flash file does not have a stop function. It is meant to continuously play (loop). I also have this Flash file set to loop in the Captivate project file.
The problem is this…
The click box “stop” (pause until user clicks) seems to be causing the SWF animation file to stop at the end of the slide. I want it to keep playing.
Does anyone have any idea as to how to do this? Is it even possible since I am essentially giving conflicting commands?
I suppose I could embed another SWF file (that would command the Captivate slide to stop) but I am unsure how to script the swf to pause the Captivate project. I could also use an animated gif, but I would like to use a swf file if possible.
Any ideas?

Hi 1970Skylark,
I still haven't been able to figure out the mechanism, but I have been able to determine something rather interesting (but mystifying).
If I take and drop a SWF (set to loop) or animated gif (set to loop infinitely) directly on a Captivate slide, and include a click box "stop" like I usually do, then when the slide timeline reaches the "stop" both types of animations stop.
However, if I first drop either of those animations and drop them in a PowerPoint slide, then import the slide into the Captivate project, then the animations continually play (even though the slide timeline might be at its end).
I haven't a clue as to why importing the PowerPoint slide changes the play behaviors of the animation, but it does. The problem with this approach is that I want to keep the file size of the project files down. Importing PowerPoint slides seems to cause some serious file size increases that I want to avoid.

Looping an animation over entire timeline

I have my interface set up with several buttons that navigate
up and down my timeline. My goal is to have a movie clip animation
looping throughout the entire timeline. I've created an animation
(movie clip) that loops and placed it on my stage, but when I
publish the Flash file and play it back, the movie clip animation
stops playing on frame 10 (this is the frame where I have my first
action script to stop the timeline so users can select a button to
navigate elsewhere in my flash file. Is there anyone that can help
me figure out how to keep my animation looping continuously?
Thanks
Iggy

Where is the stop action? if the stop action is not in the
MC's timeline
than it is impossible for the MC to stop - since there's
nothing telling it
to do so. The only way to get it to stop would be to give the
MC an instance
name and then from another timeline or the main timeline have
this action:
myMC.stop();
or something to that effect. The only other way is to place:
stop();
on the last frame of the MC.
If neither of those are true for you then your MC has to
loop.
Can you provide the Fla?

How to loop and read repeating table data of infoPath form in Visual studio workflow.

Hi,
I am trying to read info Path form repeating table data in Visual studio workflow.
could anyone elaborate me in brief how to loop through repeating table and read all rows value one by one in workflow.
any help would be more then welcome.
Thanks...

Hi Rohan,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to create a Visual Studio workflow to get data from info path repeating table.
I suggest you can submit Repeating Table to a SharePoint List and then you can create a .NET workflow to read data from the SharePoint List.
Here are some detailed articles for your reference:

How to loop through the "On My Mac" folders in mail?

Hi there - i am new to applescript, but am slowly working out how to use it.
I am stumped on how to write a rule that will move a message to a folder identified by a tag in a message (I am using MailTags).
I have script that will take the first tag and move the message to a mail folder in a fixed location (e.g. Archive/<tag name>) however I wanted to make it more generic by looping over all of my mail folders and finding one that matched the tag name.
However I am stumped on how to loop over all of my mail folder names - I have tried:
repeat with aFolder in (every mailbox of (mailbox for "ON MY MAC"))
and
repeat with aFolder in every mailbox of inbox
etc.
but none of these seem to work.
Is there some magic syntax to do this, so that I can do:
if (name of aFolder = msgTag) then
move oneMessage to mailbox (name of aFolder)
end if
Tim

You don't necessarily need to assign a variable to the entire list in order to loop through them (unless you really want to) - for example:
tell application "Mail" to repeat with aFolder in (get mailboxes)
-- do stuff with aFolder
end repeat

How to loop through a collection of records which is return value of func.

Hi all.
Have this situation:
- Stored function (member of pkg procedure) that returns a collection of records.
Package Spec:
=========
type tipo_pvt is table of s08_plan_venta_totalizado_r % rowtype;
rc_pvt tipo_pvt;
(s08_plan_venta_totalizado_r is a view).
Package Body:
=========
select col1
,col2
,etc
bulk collect into rc_pvt
from s08_lista_precio_producto_r lpp
,s03_producto_r prd
where condition;
return rc_pvt;
Once collection is loaded and returned (i know it loads records). I just want to loop through every record on a pl/sql procedure on the client (forms6i procedure), but it gives me the error: ORA-06531 Reference to uninitialized collection:
On the forms6i client procedure i have something like:
procedure p_carga_plan_venta_inv (p_id_plan_venta in number) is
v_contador integer;
v_mensaje varchar2(10);
rc_pvt sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.tipo_pvt; (sk08_gestiona_plan_venta is package name)
begin
     rc_pvt := sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.tipo_pvt();
     rc_pvt := sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.f_genera_plan_venta_inv (:pvv.lip_id_lista_precio
,:pvv.ems_id_sucursal
                                        ,:control4.v_metodo_calculo
,:pvv.unm_co_unidad_monetaria
,:pvp.fe_fin_periodo) ;
-- previous statement dos not fail BUT THIS:
message('rc_pvt.count= '||rc_pvt.count);pause;
DOES FAIL
end;
So my question is : since i have already returned the collection, how come is not initialized....?
Do i have to extend it first? In this case i have to return the number of records in the collection.....
Look what happen when done from sqlplus:
declare
rc_pvt sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.tipo_pvt;
begin
rc_pvt := sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.tipo_pvt();
rc_pvt :=
sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.f_genera_plan_venta_inv (8713171
,null
,'m'
,'BS.F'
,to_date('28/02/2001','dd/mm/yyyy'));
end;

I put a dbms_output.put_line on stored function .....
Please help ....!
Apparently it fails when calling the stored function:
rc_pvt := sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.f_genera_plan_venta_inv (:pvv.lip_id_lista_precio
,:pvv.ems_id_sucursal
,:control4.v_metodo_calculo
,:pvv.unm_co_unidad_monetaria
,:pvp.fe_fin_periodo) ;
I don't undestand since this function return the appropiate type. It seems the collection is empty, although having test that on sqlplus works ...
rc_pvt := sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.f_genera_plan_venta_inv (:pvv.lip_id_lista_precio
,:pvv.ems_id_sucursal
,:control4.v_metodo_calculo
,:pvv.unm_co_unidad_monetaria
,:pvp.fe_fin_periodo) ;
function f_genera_plan_venta_inv (p_id_lista_precio in number
,p_id_sucursal in number
,p_tipo_nivel_inv in varchar2
,p_co_unidad_monetaria in varchar2
,p_fe_fin_periodo in date) return tipo_pvt;
for some reason it works on plus:

2 rc_pvt sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.tipo_pvt;
3 begin
4 rc_pvt := sk08_gestiona_plan_venta.tipo_pvt();

Forms 6i is an antique ... write your code to run on the server.

How was this "flash" animation done?

How was this "Flash" animation done?
http://www.templatemonster.com/flash-templates/15812.html
There is a "flash" that goes down the sholder of a man in this Flash intro page. It is a series of jpg images. Do you know how this can be done or which program was used? I want to chage the page of it.
Thanks, Steve

Hi Steve,
I'm pretty sure it's done with a mask. You have the man picture layer and the border layout masked by a symbol (maybe a square or rectangle) above it.
If you want to know how to use mask in Flash, just ask Google. There is a bunch of tutorial on the web.
Hope it's a good start for you !

How to create the animation div dyanimcally using jquery+javascript

Hello,
after a week of researching and without getting the full result i decided to upload new discussion here and maybe some of you guys will help me.thanks in advance.
include the file:

    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=Edge">
    <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="animate_edgePreload.js"></script>

html code:
<div id="Stage" class="EDGE-70798230"></div>    if i put it like this of course everthing works fine..i can put more with different id's and they will work fine...
my problem:
i dont know how many of this animation i will need...depends of what my server will give me in the response...so i need to create them dynamically...
i tried lots of things:
$("#newAnimation").append('<div id="Stage2" class="EDGE-70798230"></div>');    of course with this nothing happend...it even dont get the symbols under stage..and not any of the css...
$(".EDGE-70798230#Stage").clone().appendTo("#newAnimation");
$("#newAnimation").children('#Stage').prop('id','Stage2');   then mroe css changes and just then i can see the animation but it doesnt work..."play is not defind" when i try to run the animations..
i know there is some function that called createChildSymbol/createSymbolChild but none of them work for me...
i use jquery mobile..so to start the animation for example i do $.Edge.symbol.get($("#Stage")).play();
i tried to use the loadResources etc....doesnt work too..
anyone have some idea what i can do? it is possible?

joel pau thank you for all the support.
now i will explain the anwer if anyone else will be stuck with the same problem.
first of all in edge animate need to mark all the things that created and "convert to symbol"(mark all and right click).
second:
in the top of your html file you got the script to the edge_preLoad.js .....
so now in your js code:
lets say we use append to add new div to our code and now we got <div id="new"</div>.
$.Edge.getComposition("yourCompositionID").createSymbolChild("yourSymbolThatCreatedInStepO ne","#new");
like this you can get new animation of the same composition.
if you want to conroll the animation you just need to take the id of the new symbol your created using jquery or any way you like.
and example of control it:
$.Edge.symbol.get("#theNewID").play();
