Image Maps - Help Please

Hi, I have been asked to make web buttons of a floorplan. hard to explain but I'll try.
I have placed the floorplan in Illustrator CS. The rooms/suites are different shapes. Is there a way to create buttons so that each floor will change color as it is rolled over. I can easily create a button in GoLive etc. but the problem is I need the floorplan in the background in GoLive and then I need to have the different shaped floors change color when rolled over.
Can I do this in Illustrator and then use in GoLive?
Thanks

> Is there a way to create buttons so that each floor will change color as
> it is rolled over
Not easily. The best/easiest way I know of would be to have each room's
graphic as an isolated image in the color you want, with a transparent
background. Then place this in a layer, positioned exactly over the entire
floorplan graphic (you can't use a background image here since you want to
apply hotspots to it). Then draw your hotspots on that floorplan graphic
and have each hotspot show the associated room layer in such a way that it
APPEARS that the room has changed colors. Make the mouseover event on the
hotspot to show the layer, and the mouseout event on the image in the layer
HIDE the layer.
There are other ways that would be better, but not easier....

Firefox 3.6 requires at least OS X 10.4, the last version of Firefox that worked on OS X 10.3.9 was Firefox 2.0.0.20 which is available from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/

Java mapping help please

Hi all,
I need help with java code please.
My source is a csv file and target is multiple idocs.
Source file structure is as follows:
Header (field 1, field 2, ........ field 10)
Item 1a (field 1, field 2, field 3, .........    field 180)
Item 1b (field 1, field 2, field 3, .........    field 180)
Item 2a (field 1, field 2, field 3, .........    field 180)
Item 2b (field 1, field 2, field 3, .........    field 180)
Item na (field 1, field 2, field 3, .........    field 180)
Item nb (field 1, field 2, field 3, .........    field 180)
First line is header. Second is VAT line. Third is Price line for that VAT. Now VAT and Price lines repeat. There need not be VAT line for non-European countries. So a VAT line may or may not preceed a Price line.
For example: the lines can be like:
Header
VAT1
Price1
VAT2
Price2
Price3
1) Now, it should produce 3 idocs like:
Header, VAT1, Price1
Header, VAT2, Price2
Header, Price3
2) One idoc should be created per a pair of VAT and Price lines and they will be identified by a co-relation of a particular field. So first I have to sort all the lines based on this field value. Then I have to read the lines in pairs. If no Vat line, I should just read the Price item and produce an idoc.
Can you please help me with the java code for this?
Many thanks in advance.
Ramesh.

Many thanks Ram.
The reason for thinking to go for java mapping is that there is no keyfield for price line. The source file is a pipe delimited csv file. There is a keyfield for VAT line. The same field will be empty for the Price line. I am trying to ask them to at least provide a space for that field between the pipes for price line so that I can use in FCC. It looks like they can't modify the source file.
Any inputs please?
Regards.
Ramesh.

Interactive Image Panning Help Please!!!!!

Hey guys,
I'm trying to achieve an effect similar to this one:
http://www.prada.com/pradabook/
When you click on a thumbnail and the larger image opens, when you move the mouse all the way to the right or left, the image just moves a fraction of the distance...
I simply can't figure this out...I only manage to have the image follow the mouse til the absolute edges....
I am playing arround with 2 scrolling codes:
// Create a point when the image is first clicked
var mouseLocFirstTime:Point = new Point(mc2._xmouse, mc2._ymouse);
mc2.onEnterFrame = function()
mc2.onMouseMove = function()
// Keep creating points according the mouse position on the image
var destination:Point = new Point(mc2._xmouse, mc2._ymouse);
// Find the difference between the two points
finalDX = destination.x - mouseLocFirstTime.x;
finalDY = destination.y - mouseLocFirstTime.y;
// Tween to the difference and add the mc2 x and y since the image inside mc2 is aligned top left
TweenMax.to(mc2,2,{_x:finalDX + mc2._x, _y:finalDY + mc2._y});
By the way, mc2 is the large zoomed image, which is much much larger than the stage...its about 8000 px!!!
The above code works fine, but i'm trying to reverse the direction, which is proving to be a pain!!! Can you guys please help?!?!?
The other code I'm trying to implement is this one:
var xRatioS = 0;
var yRatioS = 0;
var xTweenAmountS = 0;
var yTweenAmountS = 0;
mc2.onEnterFrame = function()
xRatioS = ((Stage.width - mc2._width) / Stage.width);
xTweenAmountS = _xmouse * xRatioS;
yRatioS = ((Stage.height - mc2._height) / Stage.height);
yTweenAmountS = _ymouse * yRatioS;
TweenLite.to(mc2,2,{_x:xTweenAmountS, _y:yTweenAmountS});
Now this one goes in the right direction as I need, but it goes all the way to the edges of my image...and I can't seem to figure out how to reduce the distance to about half or a quarter?!?!?!?
Thank you guys...I know this a long post....but i'm hoping that someone out there can help me out with any one of the above!!!
CHEERS

depending on the way you lay it out you could have it become part of the rollover on each button. But you'd have to have enough space on screen to accommodate the text you want displayed. Note that the video playing as part of menu background can only be so long and adds to the media on the disk.

PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 10 USING CANON 7D IMAGE PROBLEMS - HELP PLEASE

I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH ELEMENTS 10 AND IMAGES FROM MY CANON 7D WHEN I DOWNLOAD TO SONY LAPTOP ON WINDOWS VISTA. COLOURS ARE DISTORTED, ESPECIALLY ON REDS WHICH ARE SHOWING AS EXTREMELY VIVID AND SOME BROWNS GOING TO A WINE COLOUR. THIS IS A FAIRLY RECENT PROBLEM AND NOT SURE WHAT I AM DOING WRONG? HAVE I ADJUSTED A SETTING BY MISTAKE? ALL HELP APPRECIATED

Hi Brian,
Thanks for your reply.
I have had the 7d for 4 years or more.
The images downloaded before from the 7d, we're ok and still look ok, it is only in the past month this has happened and it is not with every image it is intermittent. Some are clear then others on the same shoot have the problem. It is even more exaggerated when printed.
I have tried Zoom browser and it is less evident on there but still shows.
I am shooting both with Raw & Jpeg and I think it shows in both.
Being a mean Scotsman I grudge having paid for Photoshop Elements and not getting the good of it.
I have tried Adobe on line but no luck and they ask me to pay for an annual contract before they will give me technical support, which is about £100.
I appreciate your assistance and any further help.
Best wishes,
Mike

I recently upgraded to Yosemite. Now in my Pages documents I cannot select/edit any objects or images. Help Please!

I just recently updated my MacBook Pro to Yosemite 10.10.2
I also updated my "Pages" when asked to.
Now when a open any of my Pages documents, I cannot select/edit any of the objects/images in those documents.
I have gone through the "Pages" help but still cannot solve the problem.
There used to be a "make background objects selectable" button, but I can no longer find it.
I have tried the "arrange tab" > section masters > make master objects selectable, but nothing happened
Any suggestions

Hello Kappy,
I checked out your link and I remember the import box popping up when I upgraded from iWork to Pages a few years ago. My problem is with all files (even documents created with "pages" last week. The documents open fine, I just cannot select/edit the objects/images in the background of my documents. Yes, I have tried going through all of the tab menus and layout options and tried "pages" help.
So my problem is that I cannot open documents and adapt them to my next lesson, etc.
Anyone else have any suggestions?

Mistake creating an Image Map

Hello, I have a problem with my Image Map. Here are my steps:
1.Create areas for the Image Map
2.Create the Image Map with areas
3.upload the image
4.create the OTH file
5.Enable rendering information option
6.Create KM navigation iView and its layout set mode as default
All references for directories and for my pic are OK but it doesn´t show any Image Map. I need help please!
Thank you

Hi,
   You can follow this example:
In KM, image maps are used for a graphical depiction of folder contents. These objects are displayed using graphics instead of in their normal text form.
Step 1 Determine the image you want to use for navigating. This can be any JPG or GIF file. In this example I will reference the file world.gif.
Step 2 Configuring an image map. Take your image file world.gif and place it in the system. For our example place the file in the path: ../knowledgemanagement/etc/public/graphics. The subdirectory graphics was created within the public folder.
Step 3 In the documents folder, create the following folders:
World
     Within the World folder, create the subfolders:
     North America
     South America
     Europe
     Asia
Note: you can create as many folders as you like. This structure will serve as the navigation structure for world.gif image map.
Step 4 Determine the navigation coordinates for the image world.gif. Any tool can be used, for this example the tool GeoHTML was used. It is a freeware tool that can be downloaded from http://www.fegi.ru/geohtml.
The following coordinates were determined for the folders:
     North America: 253, 255, 303, 285
     South America: 424, 171, 474,201
     Europe: 368, 43, 418, 73
     Asia: 276, 37, 326, 67
Step 5 Create new link-sensitive Areas for the image map. Menu path: Configuration -> Content Management -> User Interface -> Image Maps -> Areas
Please note, an area would need to be defined for each area on the image map that would be link-sensitive areas.
Step 6 Defining an Image Map. In this step the name of the image map will be defined as well as specifying the path of the image, the tooltip, and lastly assigning the areas.
Step 7 Configure an Object Type Handling (OTH) file for the image map. OTH files are located in the /oth subdirectory within the /etc repository. Copy an existing OTH file in this subdirectory and copy it to world.oth. In This OTH file, define the navigation path, collection renderer, layout controller, action and image map. The OTH file should look as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ObjectTypeHandler Name="Image Map world"
Class="com.sapportals.wcm.service.objecttypehandler.GenericObjectTypeHandler">
<SelectionCriteria>
<Paths>
    <Path>/documents/World</Path>
</Paths>
</SelectionCriteria>
<Properties>
<Property Key="rndCollectionRenderer"              Value="ImageMapRenderer"/>
<Property Key="LayoutController"                   Value="DefaultLayoutController"/>
<Property Key="rndShowActions"                      Value="false"/>
<Property Key="rndMap"                      Value="MapOfWorld"/>
</Properties>
<Actions/>
</ObjectTypeHandler>
Step 8 Display the image map. For the navigation iView that is being used, ensure that the iView property Layout Set Mode is set to default.
Step 9 Reload the object type handler in order for the system to read the new oth file world.oth. This can be done by within the Rendering Information link in any navigation iView for a user that is specified in the Debugging Settings (this is done in the user interface configuration).
Another option to reloading the object type handler would be restarting the J2EE engine.
Step 10 In the navigation iView for this mage map, navigate to the image map. In this example, the menu path would be documents/World
Patricio.
ps: If you want I can send you complete example.

Please help - Dreamweaver Image Map Tool/Outlook for Mac

Hello:
I was wondering if you could help me navigate through an issue I am having with the image map tool. I have created a design file is PSD, saved it as a JPG, then transferred it into Dreamweaver to link the design to a web page. However, I would like to embed different links within one HTML file to e-mail out, so I used the image map tool to do so. However, when I copy/paste the completed HTML into an Outlook for Mac message (Command A; Command C; Command V), the image map/additional links do not transfer over once the file is pasted in an e-mail. I also tested this with G-mail and the Apple E-mail app, and was not successful. Please help.

You can't paste images into e-mails. Use absolute links to images hosted on your domain server like this:
<img src="http://yourdomain.com/images/your_map.jpg">

I had all photos on a Windows desktop. Got a mac laptop, installed LR5, and put all images from Windows onto an external hard drive. When I go to import them into LR on the mac, they are all locked. Help, please!

"I plugged the external into the Mac and moved a folder of images onto the desktop. It looks like it went from read only to not locked. Is this possible?"
Yes, that's exactly what happened. If you buy another drive, you could copy from your existing drive to the new and your files will be read/write. The new drive will have to be formatted as an HFS drive (that's the Mac's format). If you need to format it, you use Disk Utility which is in the Utilities folder on your Mac. Be careful with that -- it wipes out whatever is currently on the drive. Make sure you format the right drive.
I keep all my images on an external drive, too. In fact, I have two matching drives and sync them so I always have a backup.

- The iPod uses the location of a nerby or connected router to determine it location based on a database of routers and their location. It appears that the routers near y are not in Appl'es database. As of yet, nobody here seems to know how to get routers added to the database.

1 input file to 2 output file mapping. Please help!

Hi Experts,
I have a snenario where from one input file I have to generate two output files. My sender and receiver systems are the same since I want to generate the output files in the same location. I am using both the systems same just for testing purpose.
So in IR I have created
1. one outbound interface for the input file
2. two inbound interfaces for the output files
3. one message mapping containing one input message
      transformation to two output messages.
4. one interface mapping containing one input interface
      transformation to two output interfaces.
In ID I have created
    1. one file sender channel and two receiver channels for two output files with different names.
    2. two receiver agreements
    3. one sender agreement
    4. one interface determination of type "Enhanced".
    5. one receiver determination
But when I run the scenario given one valid input file I am getting the error in the sxmb_moni : RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformation: Cannot produce target element.
However message mapping and interface mapping works perfectly if I test it in IR with the same input file.
Can somebody help me understand what I might be doing wrong?
Have I done the configuration correctly for 1:N mapping?
Please help! I will be greatfull to you if you can help me.
Thanks
Gopal

If my input file is like this:
   <ns1:LocationMsg_MT xmlns:ns1="http://www.abc.com/Gopal">
         <Location>
         </Location>
</ns1:LocationMsg_MT >
Then my scenario is working.
But my input file will be like this:
<LocationMsg_MT>
         <Location>
         </Location>
<LocationMsg_MT >
This is giving problem.
How to handle this kind of file?
Thanks

How to pass dynamic values to value mapping? please help!

Hi Experts,
I have requirement where I am using email adapter to send emails. Now the "To" email address is different for different environment. In other words:
DEV - [email protected]
TEST - [email protected]
PROD - [email protected]
When the XI code is migrated to TEST environment the email address will be [email protected] and in production it will be [email protected]
Similarly, there are many more environments.
Now to handle this I have decided to use value mapping where Agency refers to the type of environment.
Now my problem is how do I use it in message mapping.
I have wriiten a java function that returns me the type of environment. But now how to use this value for value mapping. I mean when using value mapping in message mapping we hardcode the agency (environment type).
Is it possibel to specify a variable in value mapping for agency. The variable will be populated by java function before connecting to value mapping?
Please help!
Thanks
Gopal

Hi Gopal,
why don't you use a "if" after your UDF. Depending on the return parameter of the UDF you call different value mappings?

Image - maps are not working in Firefox but it does work in IE. Some help required.

Hey there,
Last week i've been building a website for our company. However, there is still a problem with our banner/slider. I've uploaded some images and the slider is currently working. But the image maps ,using <map> & <area> taggs, are not functional in FF. They do work in IE so I suppose it should be working correctly.
I've tried using Chrome & Safari but the problem keeps persisting.
Some help would be nice (:

Sounds like you're using non-compliant code.
