Interactive Objects

Hi I am using Adobe Captivate 5.5 in order to create a module from a PPT. Current method we are using is that we are copying objects from PPT and pasting them in Adobe Captivate 4. We are then converting the Adobe Captivate 4 project into Adobe Captivate 5.5.
In our presentation we have a slide which has 4 buttons. On clicking each individual button one gets a different box underneath giving the description of the button. This has obv. been done in PPT by using animations and transitioning to the required slide on clicking a button. Any way to do the same in Adobe Captivate 5.5 without having to create 4 different slides like in the PPT and having it all in one slide.??

Using native Captivate functionality you can achieve this result by setting descriptive captions on the slide under each button and setting their Visibility to OFF. Then you set the Success action of each button to SHOW the relevant text caption.
However, this then means your button captions remain visible until you turn their visiblity off again with another action. You can do this by creating a Conditional Advanced Action for each button to execute On Success. This CAA first HIDEs all other descriptive captions before SHOWing the relevant caption for this button. You need one of these Conditional Advanced Actions for each button.
If your requirement is really just to show the user some information about what the button does, a much easier method is just to set the HINT caption for the button to contain the descriptive text about the button. Then the user will see this text as soon as they mouse over each button. This leaves them free to mouse over each button before deciding which one to click. I think you'll agree this would be a lot simpler solution than the way you're currently doing it?

Interactive objects disappear in Reader 9.

I don't know if anyone else is having this problem and I can't seem to find anything when I google it. I'm using Indesign CS3 to create a form with interactive objects such as checkboxes and pop-up windows. I then use Acrobat Pro 8 to add text fields and enable usage rights so that the form data can be saved. As long as I don't enable usage rights in Acrobat I can open the form in Reader 9 and all the text fields, checkboxes, and pop-ups are fine ... i just can't save any data that is input. If I do enable usage rights then when I open the form in Reader 9 I see the interactive objects for a split second and then they disappear. Reader 7 & 8 don't seem to have this issue so I'm not sure if this is a bug or I'm just missing something in the export options.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything and have tested this on multiple computers so I'm at brick wall now. I would appreciate any advice anyone can give.
Thank you

>my department is dealing with thousands of students that need to be able to save what they type on the pd
Better be careful with that. You could very possibly be violating the End User License Agreement.
Enabling forms with Acrobat is for low usage amounts. You wouldn't want to get your school in hot water.

What are the order of interactive objects

If you have two interactive objects on top of each other what are the rules regarding which shows up on top.
for instance if you have a MSO slideshow and you try to put a button on top it will disappear behind the MSO on the iPad, I can work round this by putting the button inside all states of the MSO
But are there any guidelines about which form of interactivity out ranks another?

In most instances, the z-order determines which overlay stays on top when overlays are in a stack. In your example, you mention that when you place a button on top of an MSO, the MSO covers the button. That's not my experience. In a quick test, I overlapped buttons and an MSO, and I moved the top buttons to the front and the bottom buttons to the back. Here's what I got:
In this example, DPS honors the z-order. You can interact with both the buttons (even if they're hidden) and the MSO.
When you overlap interactive objects such as image sequences, inline videos, and slideshows, the z-order of the source objects determines which objects move to the front. Activating an overlay brings it to the front of inactive overlays. If multiple overlays are activated, the z-order determines which object is in the front.

PDF file will not let me add an interactive object

Quick run down of my problem...
The company I work at just got a new logo, and has to update a LOT of pdf's logo from the old one, to the new one... A way I found how to do this with minimal time is to create a button in acrobat pro, place it over the old logo, and then switch the button to "show icon" only and insert the new logo as an icon. This worked great for about 5 forms... until now.
I just hit a document that for whatever reason, the "interactive objects" actions are all grayed out, including the "add a button" option, which is what I need to use. I have no idea why this particular form is different from the others, but I can't for the life of me figure out why the options are grayed out on this form. The only difference I can visibly see on this document is that there is a "print form" button at the bottom... but would that button not allow me to add anything else? Also, if that IS the case, I can't figure out how to delete that "print form" button.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I need to switch these logos out asap. Thanks team.

Ah, yes. it has "make changes to the document" checked as "not allowed".
Is there any way to get around this? I imagine that whoever made this document up years ago clicked to make it non-editable, without any thought to the fact that it may need to be edited down the line (I can safely say that whoever created the original file most likely does not work here any longer so it will be near impossible to get a hold of it).
Is there a way I can save the file in a different format that would allow me to edit that file? Or something else I could do? It's a pretty intricate form and I really don't want to have to rewrite the entire thing just to change the logo at the top if theres another way around it.
Thanks!

Interaction Object not able generate

Iam i missing anything,has anyone used the interaction object and can anyone expalin how to use it and see the result,
Answer to this will be greatly appreciated and will be rewarded,
Regards,
Naveen Parimi

Hi Naveen K. Parimi,
I have done all the settings as you said for IO, i.e.
1. Activated IO for all the four application areas in IMG under CRM_> BF
2. Define Communication medium and chose communication method as EMAIL
3. I left Transaction Type to empty
4. And executed the campaing with communication medium which I configured for IO
but still I am not able to find the IO for BPs in TG for whom I executed the campaign. Can you plz tell If I have missed any thing.
And also please tell me can we use IO for communication medium "FILE EXEPORT". If yes, can you please tell how it can be achieved.
Thanks,

Interactive objects and quiz questions

Hi everyone,
I know that you can't add interactive objects to quiz questions, so what is the best way to accomplish my need of placing a button that, when clicked, plays a short mp3 audio file to a quiz question?
Alternatively, if I am to replace my Captivate quiz questions with new custom slides, how can I replicate all of the multiple choice, etc question types? Are there widgets for these?
I appreciate the help! I was looking around for reference items speaking to this issue but couldn't find any.

Hello,
On default question slides like on other slides, you can attach an audio clip to an object (even an object that is invisible to the user like a rectangle without a stroke and an fill with alpha=0%). The clip will play when the rectangle gets visible, but... you cannot put a button on a question slide. The only button that is possible is the static button widget but it has not the possibility to show/hide an object. You can attach the clip to the Success/Failure captions, eventually show/hide the invisible object with events like entering a slide, or Success/Failure actions but those events (appearing of captions, executing actions) cannot be controlled by a button. If that is what you want, you need custom question slides. You didn't explain really at what moment you want to offer the audio, perhaps you do not need to give total control for playing by a button?
Several blog posts I created talk about creating custom question slides with or without the help of widgets. Here is one link that shows a list of the articles/posts with widgets:
Widgets and Custom Questions
Not all question types are possible: if you want drag&drop functionalities I recommend the Drag&Drop widgets of InfoSemantics. Have a look here:

Another problem is the reporting of custom question slides. I already published two posts about that subject on my blog as well.

Reusing interactive objects

I am making a mobile application in as3. I'm optimizing. I have a scroll containing 30 objects (buttons). All buttons are the same except its title. This bucle is inside the container scroll:
for(var a:int=0; a<global.get_A.get_B.length; a++)
 b = new ItemList(global.get_A.get_B[a]);
 b.y = this.height;
 addChild(b);
 b.mouseChildren = false;
This is 80% memory !!!

What is the secret to creating 3D interactive objects?

Recently, I touched a "squishy" 3D object on a game on an iPad, and now I am wondering: What are these objects and what is the secret to creating them? I am interested in adding some inheritance to my current 2d sprite objects in Visual Studio.
When I begin programming for iPhone and iPad, will such objects be standard graphics components?

The printer is an HP Photosmart C6280 all in one and it is connected by a USB wire. The HP devices show up on the dock but I can't seem to print from there.
Thanks

Remove background of interaction object

I'm totally lost on getting rid of the background of my pyramid widget, or even setting it to transparent. I'd like to remove the white background area as well as the drop shadow of this object.
There's an option to change that color, but nothing relating to removing it, making it transparent, or getting rid of the drop shadow.
I'd also like to have the first element (#1 in the pyramid) to be open by default, but that's not as important for now. I'm using Captivate 6. Any ideas?

Hi there,
Click on the extreme left, or hover your mouse to the extreme left (below "body") and you will get the option to change the background color.
It is not appearing because it is already white.
Thanks.
