Link two differentexe projector files in CS3

Hi,
I am working on a Multimedia Presentation in Flash CS3.
Here I have two versions of the project and thus two separate
exe (projector fles). Now I want to link these two projectors
through a button that is placed on the main screen on the projector
files.
Can somebody help me on this?
Thnx.

You could try local connection or shared object to
communicated between
two files.
What is that you try to do to be exact, I might have more
specific answer for you,
or related tutorial perhaps...

Fscommand exec on mac to open pdf works in a cs3 projector file but not in a cs5 projector file

Hi,
I could succesfully open a external pdf with the following command in Flash cs3 on a Mac:
fscommand("exec", "test.app");
test.app (inside an fscommand folder) is an apple script that opens the pdf inside the fscommand folder, to make it work I needed to copy the fscommand folder into the MacOs Folder of the Mac Projector File. The same steps don't seem to work with Flash cs5. I can't downgrade my cs5 project to cs3.
Is this problem a bug in Flash cs5?
Has anyone solved this problem?
Thank you.

I had this same issue today - could not get a mac projector, FP 10, built in cs5, to run fscommand("exec", "test.app") no matter what I tried. I also couldn't find any definitive threads via google, so here's everything I know about fscommand("exec") for anyone who's looking.
I wanted to run a custom batch (.bat) file on windows and a custom applescript file on mac. I needed to restart a legacy, cross-platform kiosk application on a click (unfortunately could not use AIR).
On the Mac (Flash CS5) - First off - Flash CS5 on Mac did not work no matter what I tried
I also tried opening up the .app package contents and copying the fscommand folder into that, with no luck.
You have to create the projector in CS4 (I down-saved to CS4 and used my PC running CS4 to publish) and put the "callee" .app in a folder named fscommand alongside the projector.
I used these directions to create an .app of my applescript that restarts my projector: http://soapbox.lafayette.edu/node/517
Here's the applescript I wrote:
tell application "kiosk"
    -- kill the "caller" app if running
    quit
end tell
set myFile to (path to me)
tell application "Finder"
   -- the delay wasn't needed in practice, but might be of help
   -- delay 1
    open application file "kiosk.app" of container of container of myFile
end tell
Now when I call
fscommand("exec", "restart.app");
on a mac, my kiosk restarts as expected.
For PC peeps, I used this awesomely simple solution on windows (Flash CS4)
http://www.northcode.com/blog.php/2007/08/07/Conquering-FSCommand-EXEC-Part-1-Proxy
I put two files in my fscommand folder (at the same directory level as my projector):
- restart.exe (proxy.exe from above link renamed)
- restart.bat
The .bat file simply has 1 line that starts my projector (in the parent folder):
..\kiosk.exe
I call
fscommand("exec", "restart.exe");
and then have a 1 second timeout to kill the first "caller" projector. I wrapped the function as it didn't seem to work otherwise:
setTimeout(function(){fscommand("quit");}, 1000);
Yes, this means that I have two instances of the kiosk running at the same time for about 1 second.
Apologies if my response was slightly off-topic, but I hope the info helps someone avoid losing a whole evening on a pressing deadline like me!

Is there a way to link two FrameMaker 12 books with shared content into the same RoboHelp 11 file?

This one might require some back story.
I'm working at a company with roughly 60 business units that will each be getting their own emergency response procedures (.FM files compiled into a single FrameMaker .book file for their department). I then want to link all of these books to a single RoboHelp so that when it comes time to publish all of these plans into WebHelp menus I can do that with a single batch generate/publish.
My problem is that some of the FM files within the books are shared (maybe two or more departments are at the same location or all of them share the same corporate level plans) so that when I try to link two books with a shared FM file it throws an error.
Is there away to allow multiple copies of a FM file to exist in a single RoboHelp? Or is there a better solution to the task at hand?
Any suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated as I am still a moderate beginner with Frame and RoboHelp.
---Corey---
P.S. Just to complicate things this will all be done via SharePoint so books and FM files live there, and then the RoboHelp output will be published there.

I think you’re looking at creating a merged RH project – one parent project that subsumes all the linked FM to RH child projects – read up on merged help on Peter’s site (grainge.org)

Trouble opening .inx files in CS3 - links randomly replaced with foo.jpg

I have to move a lot of CS4 InDesign files to CS3, and I often run into a bizarre problem. After opening an .inx file in InDesign CS3, sometimes perfectly normal PDF, JPG, EPS and AI files will mysteriously be replaced with a linked file called "foo.jpg" that InDesign thinks is missing (it always reports the path as "c:foo.jpg"). I then have to go figure out what the original file was actually called and where it was saved and relink it manually.
There is no rhyme or reason to when linked files don't come over - our logo is saved in one location and linked in every single piece we make, yet sometimes it links fine when imported into CS3 and sometimes it doesn't. Going back to CS4 and exporting a new .inx file never works - a file that will not link correctly in CS3 will never show up correctly.
It always thinks "foo" is a .jpg file, even if the original link was actually a .pdf, .eps or whatever.
Any ideas? I'm perplexed.

Smells like a bug to me. Did you try reporting it?
What happens if you search the incp file for "foo"? Does it find
anything?
When the vendor opens the file, what is the link name on his end?

Linking projector to another projector file

Hi
I really need help with this one and I'm not very advanced
when it comes to actionscript, so fairly simple solution would be
great. I created a projector file that's going to serve as a
presentation. This exe presentation contains buttons. How can I
link a button to another exe file so that it opens in another
window? I also would like to know what action I need to give my
other buttons to link them to pdf and video files? I've looked all
over and can't seem to find any solution.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance

How to link two .java files together?

hello everybody,
is it possible to link two or more .java files together? I mean is if I have 3 .java files. (a.java, b.java, c.java) then I have 3 .class files too. How do I use the method in other .java files. For example :
public a extends Applet {
// call b.class
b();
public b extends Applet implements ActionListener {
void title1() {
How to call the b.class? How to call the title1() method?
Is it related to JAR or package??
Thanks for helping me. v(^_^)v

O.K, you do not link ".java" files together.
You compile them into class files and they can create new instances of each other and and access their variables and work together.
I recommend "Sam's Teach Yourself Java in 21 Days".
It will start you out with the basics.

Director Projector to Projector file linking.

How do I Link a windows Director Projector file to another windows Director Projector file ( without opening this linked file in a browser ), it should open like the first projector file ( .exe file) ?

Thanks. That sort of worked. The web design guy says he no
longer gets the missing director file error, but now the movie just
loops rather than jump to the next dcr movie. Strange thing is,
when I run it on another hard drive or even off a CD, the files
find each other and run without a hitch. I can't figure out why on
his server, his first movie just loops. (I checked my files, there
are no looping settings selected when published.)
Someone else suggested altering the code:
goToNetMovie(the moviePath & pThePath)
where pThePath="yourOldPath/yourOldFile.dcr"
but that just caused more errors. maybe I didn't pop in my
data correctly.

Can't see .swf files in CS3

i've read quite a few postings on this topic but none of the
fixes seem to work. after upgrading to CS3 from CS2, all of my
embeded .swf files have disappeared from the web. to be clear, i
have the .js files and folders all on the remote site, the .swf and
fla files are in the same file as the html page they are embeded
in. i have tested these pages on two different servers and the
problem persists.
here is the page i am working on:
http://fieldworking.com/main/index.html
here is a page i have set up for testing:
http://www.fieldworking.com/main/blah.html
in both situations the problem reoccurs. if anyone has any
further tips i would REALLY appreciate it...

How do you make a link in a .pdf file? (Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional)

Dear Adobe Acrobat Forum,
I would like to add a link to my .pdf file.
Once clicked on, I would like the link to send the user to another place in the same .pdf file
or open a separate .pdf file.
I've tried to resolve this on my own by going to both Acrobat help section and the InDesign help section as well as Googling "Acrobat 8 link" or something similar.......but to no avail.
So, can you please tell me how I can add a link to a .pdf file?
I'm using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
I have been creating .pdf files using the File > Export feature in Adobe InDesign CS3 (for the Mac).
Thanks!

Have you tried in Acrobat 8 to:
Choose Link tool.
Then choose as shown on as on this Graphic
Then when clicking next you should be greeted with this:
Choose open a file or open a weblink depending upon what you want to do.
You try some of the other choices. once you select what to do save as a copy and try. If This one doesn't work try some of the other choices in the first graphic. other panes will open up similar to second graphic except there will be other choices.

SVG file with links to other SVG files - links don't work

I have an SVG image with a few dozen linked images, all of which are pointing to external SVG files. If I open the main SVG in a web browser, it loads up correctly with all the linked images, so I know the file is correct.
When I open it in illustrator, I get the following message:
Could not find a plug-in to read the linked file "test.svg". Choose Replace to select another file or Ignore to leave the link unchanged.
If I choose Ignore, the file loads up but the linked SVGs are removed. Obviously Illustrator doesn't really need a plugin to read an SVG file, because it loads the main SVG with no problem.
Meanwhile I have other links pointing to PNG files which all work fine. In fact I can open the main SVG, find one of the PNG links, and click Re-Link, and then link them to an SVG, and this will work! Although it doesn't work as desired, instead of making a link, it seems to import the external SVG's layers, which is not desired.
I'm pretty sure it's just one of those things that will never work, but does anyone have any thoughts on making it work?
FYI here's some source code from the main SVG, where it links to the external SVG:
<image overflow="visible" width="420" height="300" id="_x30_1_13_" xlink:href="images\graphics\SVG\test.svg" transform="matrix(0.2534 0 0 0.2534 438.8486 458.8145)">
</image>
this link, to a PNG, works just fine:
<image overflow="visible" width="420" height="300" id="_x30_1_14_" xlink:href="images\graphics\211.png" transform="matrix(0.2534 0 0 0.2534 246.3306 458.8145)">
</image>
and like I said, both links work fine when the main SVG is opened in a web browser.

I think the problem is that illustrator just isn't capable of linking to an SVG from within an SVG. Try it yourself with two very simple files, I just did.
create a "main.svg" with just a line
create a "link.svg" with another line
save a copy of link.svg as link.png (using export to web)
-- now you have three files, put them all in the same directory just to make life easy
in main.svg, file >> place >> link.png
-- illustrator will place the PNG as a linked image
in main.svg, file >> place >> link.svg
-- illustrator will import layers from the SVG, it will not place it as a linked image
If you save this file and open in a text editor, you'll see your image link to the PNG file, and you'll see two <line/> elements, one that you had in main.svg and another that you had in link.svg (it has now been imported into main.svg)
In the text editor, try duplicating the image link, and change the href of your duplicate to link.svg, then save.
Re-open main.svg in illustrator. It should give you the error message about the linked svg, the same one I saw originally.
I did all this using CS6. Then I tried opening the final main.svg file in CC and saw the same error message.

.exe projector file for PC works fine, but extracted .hqx for Mac won't open when on CD

I'm using Flash MX, AS 2, Projector 6, working on a PC.
I saved two versions of my project -- one .exe for Windows and one .hqx for Mac. The .exe works fine when burned onto a CD. When opening the .hqx from a CD on a Mac, I got a message that the file is on a locked volume. I discovered that the reason for this is that an .hqx is essentially a zipped file which has to be extracted, and when a file is extracted, the unzipped files are written onto the same location as the original. When the original files are on a CD, Stuffit (Mac's zip extractor program) can't write onto that location.
[So if anyone at Adobe looks at these forum posts, let me say that I think its absolutely ridiculous that the Mac version of Flash's projector files have to be extracted in order to be viewed!]
To get around this problem, I saved the .hqx on my PC, put it on a portable hard drive and brought it over to a Mac (because Stuffit for PC converts it into an .exe for PC), and unzipped it. When I'd test it on the portable hard drive or on a USB drive, the extracted file would work. When I'd bring it back over to the PC and burn a CD with both versions on it, and then test that CD on the Mac, it wouldn't work. Can anyone tell me why the extracted Mac version works on a hard drive, but not on a CD? What do I have to do in order to make a Mac projector file work from a CD?

Windows uses the FAT file system, Macs use the HFS file system. The two are not compatible. If you save a Mac projector file on a FAT file system, it won't be saved properly and it won't work. When you create a Mac projector from a Windows version of Flash, the file will be saved as a compressed .hqx file.
Since you need to use a Mac to create a hybrid CD, when you move that .hqx file to the Mac, unstuff it and then use the resulting file for the CD. It will then run from the CD as expected.

Text reflow after opening IDCS2 file in CS3?

Has anyone experienced text reflow when opening a legacy InDesign CS2 file in CS3? This is a serious problem if it happens in book documents. I want to make a case (or not) for keeping the old version on our computers for opening legacy files.

It's not unheard of. Even if the text looks perfectly normal at first sight, the tiniest editing will cause a recompose.
On the two upgrades I had so far, I made a point of never to open and edit documents into the newer version if the client already had seen a previous one.

Cant add a link to a network file to a new email

Hi Gents
I'm having heaps of trouble - in fact finding it impossible - to add a FILE hyperlink into a newly composed email to send to recipients who can open the file.
The file is on THEIR computer network, not mine, and I use the UNC path for the recipient network. This works fine in Outlook and other email programs. file path similar to \\192.168.1.100\Share\File.exe
Have set this to true (about:config in TB) , with no added benefit:
mail.compose.dont_attach_source_of_local_network_links
The Hyperlink Insert toolbar icon does not have the FILE: option, nor does the advanced hyperlink editing tool allow me to change the link from HTTP (for example) to FILE.

I go to write in Thunderbird, I click in the insert >Link menu or toolbar icon.
I select a file in the dialog and I get a link that starts with
file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/
Now it is possible that if you use a UNC path you might need two more // but it is unlikely.
One of the things windows users forget is the web is unix. // not \\
