Lag the link behavior....

Let's say you have a square and its oscillating back and forth on the X axis. Then you create a circle and you use the link behavior to link the X parameter of the circle to the x parameter of the square, so now you have both shapes oscillating together back and forth on the x axis. Can anyone figure out a way that I could make that circle lag behind the square. So, the circle would be moving the same speed and distance during its oscillation, but it would just be a little behind the movement of the square.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Ok. Thanks for the mental exercise. It took me about 30 minutes to figure it out.
The key is not to link the two rotations together, but to link behaviors. Here's how to do it.
Apply the oscillate behavior to the X rotation of the rectangle. Set up as you like.
Duplicate the behavior and apply it to the Circle.
Add the Link behavior to the circle. Set the source object as the rectangle. Change the source parameter to the rectangle behavior's amplitude. Change the target parameter to the circle behavior's amplitude.
Adjust the phase on the circle's oscillate behavior. This will change the timing of the oscillation but the link will ensure that any changes to the amplitude of the rectangle will be reflected in the circle.
Animate the Custom Mix with keyframes from 0 to 1. This will allow you to control a "start up" if you will of the circle not moving, but rather reacting to the rectangle.
You can also link the speed of the rectangle's oscillation if you like as well, but that requires another link behavior. It all depends on how much control you need.

  • Why are link behaviors working in my render but not my export?

    When I export my video, the link behaviors don't behave like they do when I preview the video in the player window. It's like the export feature doesn't even know they're there. What's going on?

    Hi Ben, thanks for helping.
    I set all of the Render settings as you said, both on the Preview Canvas as well on the Export settings.
    My export is still different than my preview. Here are the problems (all link behaviors):
    "Link Slit Scan"
    Source Parameter: Filters.Insect Eye.Refraction
    Apply To: Filters.Slit Scan.Glow
    Notes: In the preview, the slit scan is glowing bright white. In the export, it's completely dark.
    "Link Halftone"
    Source Parameter: Filters.Insect Eye.Refraction
    Apply To: Filters.Halftone.Mix
    Notes: In the preview, the halftone triggers along with the refraction. In the export, the halftone doesn't exist.
    Extra Note: This is the same behavior that keeps changing the target to "Filters.Bad TV.Mix" when I close and reopen the project.
    "Link Bad TV"
    Source Parameter: Filters.Insect Eye.Refraction
    Apply To: Filters.Bad TV.Waviness
    Notes: In the preview, the waviness triggers smoothly along with the refraction (when the Bad TV mix is up). In the export, the waviness is jittering out of control.
    By the way, Filters.Insect Eye.Refraction is controlled by an audio behavior, but the Refraction itself is working just fine.
    I'll check out Ripple Training too. Thanks!

  • How do I block an ad that opens up a new Firefox window and keeps telling me my system performance is poor? I can't even capture the link.

    This particular ad, supposedly from a Windows Certified Partner, opens in a second Firefox window and keeps flashing the message that my System Performance is Poor, wanting me to click on their ad and let them do whatever nasty things they want to my system. I have not been able to capture the path but next time it comes up, I will write down all that I can see.
    If I have closed my main Firefox screen first, and then close out this ad, the next time I open Firefox, the ad opens and all my standard tabs are gone, requiring me to reopen each one seperately (Facebook, Google, etc).

    Just to address the last point: check your History menu to see whether you have the Restore Previous Session option and use that if you can. If that is grayed out or doesn't restore everything, check the Recently Closed Windows and Recently Closed Tabs lists for other pages.
    The unwanted window may be generated by an add-on. Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
    Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Any improvement?
    Here are some other things to check:
    (1) user.js file that changes Firefox startup behavior and overrides your preferences. This article describes how to track that down and delete it if you have one: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
    (2) Possible hijacked shortcut. Check the "target" of the desktop icon you use to start Firefox to see whether it lists the unwanted page. To do that:
    right-click the icon > Properties > Shortcut tab
    For 64-bit Windows 7, the Target should be no more and no less than this:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
    (3) Possible undisclosed bundle items. If you have installed any free software recently, check your Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a program for surprises. If you click the "Installed on" column head to group by date, it is easier to spot bundled junk. Remove everything suspicious or unrecognized.
    (4) Supplemental clean up scans. Our support article lists tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
    Hopefully that cures it.

  • When I click a link, it changes to the new page instead of opening the link in a new tab.

    I've gone to the options section several times and the right settings are in place but it still doesn't open in a new tab. I've never had this problem before. Should I change back to 3.6 or 4 beta? This problem occurs on the newest update. I believe it's 4.0.1 or something like that...I just loaded it yesterday. How can I fix this? Thank you.

    It's normal for links to open in the same tab as you browse if you left-click. You can Ctrl+click or middle click to open a link in a new tab. Are either of those broken?
    Some sites let you use a regular left click to open a link in a new tab (example: Google search settings), and some add-ons may change link behavior. Can you check whether one of your add-ons has been disabled?
    Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
    Also, if you use the Ask toolbar, try disabling it and see whether that makes any difference.

  • Everyone Needs to report problems with iPhone 2.0  to apple. heres the link

    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    when there is a problem, GO to the link and send it to apple about the software issues like slow response when typing, lagging in apps and contacts and safari, cause every time I call iphone tech support at APPLE they say they haven't heard any complaints, because apple needs to know we have problems so they can fix them. and need to know it's a major problem.

    You should read this, it's a part of Apples unsolicited feedback policy...
    "Apple or any of its employees do not accept or consider unsolicited ideas, including ideas for new advertising campaigns, new promotions, new or improved products or technologies, product enhancements, processes, materials, marketing plans or new product names. Please do not submit any unsolicited ideas, original creative artwork, suggestions or other works (“submissions”) in any form to Apple or any of its employees."
    "If, *despite our request that you not send us your ideas*, you still submit them, then regardless of what your letter says, the following terms shall apply to your submissions."
    So, yea, those requests for enhancement everyone keeps sending their way... they don't want them. How about that.

  • I have sent files several times now and when the recipient clicks the link to open. it says page cannot be found.  This just started happening.  what needs to be corrected?

    In Adobe Send, I have sent files several times now and when the recipient clicks the link to open, it says page cannot be found.  This just started happening.  What needs to be corrected?

    I can think of a couple of reasons for this behavior.
    You inadvertently turned off the sharing for the files.
    The link that the user is clicking on is incomplete; perhaps it got broken across lines in an email message. Are you sending Anonymous Links or Personalized Invitations? If the former, are you certain that you copied the entire link?
    Some things to try.
    Have the user send the link back to you so that you can test it. Does it work for you?
    If you look at your Sent Files list, is the name in the Sent To column struck through (e.g., John Smith)? That would indicate that it has been unshared.
    If you could get back to me with answers, perhaps we can get to the bottom of this.

  • DW CS6 Not allowed me to select again the + in the server behaviors

    I worked with server behaviors normally yesterday but today it has not allowed me to work with them.
    - I work with the tables in the database.
    - I checked the site definition and is correct.
    - I work with links normally.
    The system works normally, except the server behaviors.
    What should I do to display the + in server behaviors?

    Hi, Ben:
    The server is PHP and the document was opened with PHP.
    I work with WAMP and the DB is MySql,  I checked that It was active and was working properly.
    The connection to the DB was fine, also checked the site definition and it was good, I could work with everything in DW except the server behaviors. I turned off the system several times, because it could have been any open document, which avoiding the continuity of my work, but every time the problem was there.
    Today was concerned that the work I have to deliver is short in time and I have to say, by some miracle of God, the system is working well now, but I am very nervous because if the problem happens again, I do not know which is the solution.
    Thanks a lot.

  • Whenever I right click on any link the link gets opened in new tab

    Whenever I right click on any link, along with context menu pop up (Correct property) the said link also gets opened in new tab (next to running tab in background : wrong property) Initially I thought it is due to one of the add-on installed on searching I find I installed add-on Right Link so I removed it still instead of just opening context menu the link also was getting opened as described so I reinstalled the add-on Right Link and tried to disable it via option provided by them (A status bar button, F2, a tool menu option) and confirmed in about:config that value of extensions.rightlinks.enabled;false, still could not stop opening link when I right click on it
    Now I wonder whether the said add-on is culprit or any other add-on is responsible for this behavior ?

    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    *Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    You can first strict the enabling to tab related extensions and extensions added by security software.
    If you have many extensions then first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
    Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.

  • Link Behavior Bug in Motion 5

    I've repeatedly defined a bevavior to two link colors together (a gradient colorize from one group links to the gradient colorize of another group.) I'll set it, it works just fine. When I close the project and open it up again, the "Apply To" is always reset and blank, but the Source Parameter will be intact.
    Is there a known bug for this?
    This in in Motion 5, which isn't available as a product option when submitting this discussion.

    The behavior is being applied to the RGB colors of a Gradient Colorize filter, not the gradient itself. Correct, the gradient is made of multiple values (RGB colors, locations, opacity) so applying a behavior to the entire gradient doesn't even make sense, and rightly so is impossible to do.
    So if you apply the Gradient Colorize filter to anything, select the first (or second) color in the gradient, then to the right of the color control (and dropper icon) you'll see the ability to apply a behavior. This color can be linked to any other RGB value in any other layer or group via a Link behavior.
    However, in my case, when I do it.. it never saves.
    I've run tests from scratch where it WILL save. There's something unique to this project that Motion doesn't like.. and for the life of me, I can't figure it out, other than to just call it a bug.
    Here's the test file that I set up that does work:
    http://www.mediafire.com/?qpxhdmjdlljns85
    There's a source group and two linked groups that follow the source group. Changing the colors of the source group changes the colors of the other two groups. This one, for some reason, saves.
    So, what the heck does that do for me? Nothing.. in fact it's worse. There's some sort of conflict going on that I need to find that keeps mine from saving properly.

  • Link behavior inside a pdf

    I created a document using Word and "published" it as a pdf for our website.   During document creation, I specified that certain links would open up in a new window/tab.  However, this behavior did not follow the links into the pdf.
    The links all open in the same window, and this necessitates the use of the "back" button to go back to the original document.
    I would like to specify that certain links - not all - open in a new window or tab.  I have acrobat pro.  How do I do it?

    You simply don't have that level of control of the browser from a PDF. I think the best you can do is use the app.launchURL JavaScript method instead: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.150.html
    but it has problems working with protected mode with Reader and relies on JavaScript being enabled.

  • Open link behavior will not set

    After a PC crash, upon reopening my FF I discovered that EVERYTHING was reset to default values. Now, the only thing that will not return to what I had is the link opening behavior. Despite "options" and "tab mix plus" values set to "current tab", it still opens every link (even login buttons) in another tab. Nothing I do has mitigated this in the least.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

  • How can I copy linked properties without losing the link to the control?

    I've been dealing with an annoying issue when copying/pasting properties. If the properties are linked to a control when I copy them, they lose that link in the pasted version.
    Basically, copy/paste is not really following the expected behavior of "copying" in that the resulting "paste" is different from the item being copied. Is there a way around this besides having to manually go to each one and re-link it?
    Below are snippets to demonstrate the problem:
    Before Pasting
    After Pasting:
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The behavior you're seeing is, unfortunately, not unique to you. It's the way LabVIEW works. Until enough people complain and get NI to change it, that is. Omar's link to the proposed idea is one.
    An alternative is to right-click and drag. This creates a copy. At least when you're within the same VI, that is. This, and other nifty tricks can be found in the Quick Reference Card.

  • Adobe Professional link behavior

    Windows XP
    Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0
    I converted a Word document to Acrobat, and I've creating web links within the document. But, when I left click on the link, it appends the contents of the web link to the PDF. I want to be able to left click on the link and have the web page open in the browser. I know that I can open the web link in the browser by right clicking on the link, but this document is going out to several users, and they are used to left clicking on links to open the web browser. Is there a way to change the behavior of the links so that you can left click to open the link in a browser?
    I really appreciate everyone's help.
    Thank you.

    If you click on a web link while viewing a PDF in Acrobat, it will probably attempt to download the linked html page, convert it to PDF and append it to the PDF document you're viewing.
    To launch the linked web page in a browser, Ctrl+Click the link instead of clicking it.
    To make this your default:
    Choose Edit, Preferences, Web Capture.
    Change the "Open Weblinks" option to "In Web Browser" instead of "In Acrobat".
    Acrobat will now launch web pages in the browser when you click the link (but you can Shift+Click the link to append the page to your PDF as before or Ctrl+Click to open the web page as a new PDF)
    Hint: If the cursor becomes a hand with a W when you hover the mouse pointer over the link, Acrobat will launch the web link in your browser. If the cursor becomes a + sign, Acrobat will append the page to your PDF. If it becomes a blank document sheet, Acrobat will open the web link as a new PDF.
