Linking Buttons to Video

I'm new to Flash and i need some help please! I've been
through loads of tutorials but can't find exactly what i need.
I'm creating a virtual tour of my website. I've done the
intro as a simple timeline with animation text etc, but now what i
want to do is have 6 buttons, which when you click on, they open up
individual movies. I've created the buttons as our logo icon...when
you click on one i'd like it to be able to simultaneously open up a
video (which i've imported so it's FLV) and two mp3 files ( a
narration and a music clip).
So how do i 'pause' the main timeline once the intro has
completed, and how to i then link buttons to video and audio? Think
i need specific code for it?
Thank you!

Hi
this has to be relatively simple but I have looked everywhere and can't
find a solution.
One would think so, but unfortunately not, as you have to use a combination of actionscript in your flv creation and javascript on the browser side to do this.
If you have a working solution in flash, it would probably be easier to insert this into your dreamweaver page and ensure that the links to your videos are relative to the position of the files in your html page.

Problem in linking button with videos in C6

This is what I tried to do in Captivate 6…
I created two separate video demos and saved them (ext *.cpvc). Let's call them as P1 and P2.
I created a third project P3, which has a slide with two buttons on it.
Then I linked each button in P3 to P1 and P2 respectively.
Next I published the project P3. After I published it I copied P1 and P2 in the callees folder of the published project P3, so that when I run the slide and click the buttons the respective video demos P1 and P2 should appear as per the settings.
But, instead of P1 and P2 opening, I get an error message saying that, “The file not found in the specified location. Please check the path or internet location.”
I had following doubts in my mind regarding this message…
Are the video demos linked to the buttons with the correct extension? I have linked the *.cpvc files to the buttons.
I copied the video demos to the callees folder. Is this the correct thing to do? Or is there any other place where I should have copied the two linked demos?
Or is it not feasible at all to call a video demo using a button on a slide in captivate?
I am in deadly hurry to knock this down. Please help me showing these videos.

Although linking between normal cptx-files can be done by pointing to the cptx, I don't believe that is possible with cpvc files.
My work flow should have been totally different: I would have created a recording slide both for P1 and P2 in the P3 file but that is now not possible anymore. You cannot insert a CPVC raw file in a CPTX-file (hope it will be possible in the future).
Since you already have the cpvc-files, I am afraid that you'll have to publish to MP4 and link to the published files, or insert them as animations.

Is it possible to have a link/button inserted into the end of my flash video that makes up the first page of my web site

i am not sure if this will make sense so please tell me if it
doesn't. is it possible to have a link/button inserted into the end
of my flash video that makes up the first page of my web site. the
video plays showing the name of the site then fades to show the
text "enter" which i want to make the link to the next page.

> the video plays showing the name of the
> site then fades to show the text "enter"
in FLASH set a gotourl action on the last frame of the move.
If this is a "splash page" and has a dancing company logo and
a throbbing
drumbeat- reconsider. Just make the homepage of the website
the homepage.
Don't make people wait to see some content.

How to display message in Ajax Model pop-up extender/overlay on click of a link button

I am dynamically create the link button using reapeter control and each link assign to different type of content.i want to show the content in a overlay / Ajax modal pop-up extender. ( Content Type: Video/PDF/Text).
I need to know how to display the content in overlay/Modal pop-up on click of the link button.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display the content of Video/PDF/Text in a pop-up dialogue when clicking the link button.
I suggest you can use the Jquery media plugin to open the file content in a pop up dialogue.
Here is a detailed code demo for your reference:

Is it possible to create a text link to a video in an interactive pdf

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew how to create a text link to a video within the same interactive pdf?
I've seen that you can create buttons to link to video's but nothing about linking from text
thanks in advance for any assistance

HI Bernd,
The video above does not show me how to link to a video have it start playing.
I know it is also possible in indesign to have a button link to a specific point in a video, but I haven't been able to find out how to do that from a text link.
so for example. the text could say "watch our video, or click here to learn about subject two".
where - "learn about subject two" takes the user to a specific part of the video, and makes it start to play.

Without a link, it's anybody's guess.
It could be a problem the video rendering itself. Which software did you use?
Did you export to the 3 file types -- MP4, OGG and WEBM to support all browsers?
Does your web server support those 3 MIME file types?

Bug in flex 4, with truncating the link button and labels

hey guys.. so my application has a popupanchor, and in that popup anchor i have multiple linkbuttons... and for some reason no matter what i try, it truncates all the link buttons, as well as the labels on accordions.
i know that the button is not in a group with small width... ive also tried wrapping the link button in a group with a width of 500, and still the link button gets truncated...
any ideas on how to fix this problem??
if you would like the following is the code i have... essentially all the labels and linkbuttons gets truncated after the second time i popup the popupanchor.

Link button in data grid

hi
Can anyone tell me why the click action is not working when
the link button is placed in datagrid.
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="edit" headerText="">
<mx:itemRenderer>
<mx:Component>
<mx:LinkButton label="edit" click = "click1();">
</mx:LinkButton>
</mx:Component>
</mx:itemRenderer>
</mx:DataGridColumn>
even if button is placed in the datagrid it is not working.

When you use the <mx:Component> tag you create a new
scope. Its as if all of the content of the <mx:Component>
were in another file. If you used a separate file for your renderer
you wouldn't expect click() function to be recognized, right?
You can modify your renderer like this to make it work:
<mx:LinkButton label="edit" click =
"outerDocument.click1();">
Another option is to take advantage of the bubbling feature
of the click event. Instead of putting the click handler on the
LinkButton, put it on the DataGrid itself. Any click on the
DataGrid will then trigger the event handler.
The drawback to that is that EVERY click will call the event
handler - either the LinkButton's click on a click on the header.
Your event handler just has to examine the event data to determine
what control originated the event.
In this case, using outerDocument.click() is far easier, but
you might need the bubbling property of the event at some point in
the future.

How do I remove download links/button redirect to accurate download

When I go to some sites that have a download link underscored in blue or a button next to text or any other part of the page, I was able to click and download the file. When you point at the link or button you would see the path it will take to download the file. It would have the website name your visiting plus other codes.
But on returning to these sites, when I choose what I want to download, the link or button wants to go to accuratedownload.com. It presents the name of the item I want and with a .EXE extension. My main browser is Firefox version 26.0 on my XP PC. I test Internet Explorer and it produces the same results. Something has changed. I go to the site on my mobile phone, I am able to download the file from the same site and the links/buttons are not embedded with codes to go to accuratedownload.com. I do not know what to call this problem since I had no luck in finding solutions to redirection being embedded in a link or button on a web page that worked fine.
I've tried a reset Firefox, my profile, running Symantec Anti-Virus, Malwarebytes Anit-Malware, Clearing history and so on. The problem still occurs. Need Help.
Note: It would be nice if when the Download Screen pops-up, that we could rename the download file to a name we want (Saves time). Even if you rename the file, the history should record where it came from with the original name if it needs to be downloaded again.

To let you know, When I did a reset and restarted Fire Fox without the Add on's. I tested each user account on my PC. Each user account that used Fire Fox or Windows Explorer showed the same symtoms.
Back to troubleshooting, I've completed a scan using Sothos Free Virus Removal Tool. After a lengthy scan of every drive, partition, USB Thumb Drive and so on that it found, in about 5.5 hours it found Mal/FakeAvCn-C, Mal/JavDlEx-A and CXmal/BadLnk-A and continued by clicking the Clean Up button and that took about 15 minutes for some reason. Then it asked to send the log to Sophos. I clicked send and it failed to get to them.
I tried going on the internet to test the cleanup by clicking on some links and buttons. I could not get on the internet. I found that the NIC card was not working. Don't know why now but probably was affected by the scan. I found myself troubleshooting and reinstalling NIC drivers several times before the NIC card started to run correctly.
I read you post and tried to change the proxy settings in Fire Fox to "No Proxy." The scan, clean up and proxy settings change did not remove the embedded paths in links or buttons that allow you to download or be sent to the intended location. It still had paths to accuratedownload.com and eachdownload.com.
Question: By default is the proxy setting suppose to be "Use system proxy settings"? Should I put this back to this setting.
Windows Explorer has the same problem. Is Fire Fox a stand alone product or does it build parts of itself using Windows Explorer?
=========
Besides the scans and removal done to the registry, the scans it did on the files and folders, the Sophos log shows the virus attached to files in Documents and Folders, All Users (and other user accounts), Application and data folders, Java and Cache, including any shortcuts and long cryptic files like (pg42l784fcuo452hsb6cfbkoke045p75f2e02887m).
When programs fail to delete or cleanup after themselves, what locations can be safely deleted manually?

Add linked button to a editText field

Hello everybody,
i'm trying to add a linked button to a text field in the header of a JournalEntry. So far i've been able to add it on one of the columns of a document matrix.
Can anybody help me, please?
Ciao
Marco

You need to create a new link button object, set the "linkto" property to point to the UID of the edittext containing the data, and set linkedobject to point to the target object (eg. business partners, items ...)
Set sboItem = sboItems.Add("LINK", it_LINKED_BUTTON)
sboItem.LinkTo = "10" 'UID of separate edittext containing the data.
Set sboLink = sboItem.Specific
sboLink.LinkedObject = lf_BusinessPartner

Linking button to PDF file with published Windows Executable

Hello all,
I've been using Captivate 1 for years. I have always linked
buttons to PDF files. The only thing I really ever had to remember
was to take away the local directory address so where as only the
filename was left. When I burned to CD I would just leave
everything top-level.
Well, for some reason now Captivate won't launch my pdf file
(and yes I put the ".pdf"). It launches my web browser looking for
a web address. Here's what I do. I create a new text or image
button, next I select "open url or file". Finally I select the file
through the browse window. I immediately take off the local
directory before the filename because everything is located
top-level on the CD's I produce.
Please help, anyone. BTW I am experiencing the same thing on
Captivate 2. I'm afraid I'm doing something silly wrong since it's
been awhile. Thanks in advance .

Hi Charles,
Does by any chance you have upgraded your Flash Player
recently? Flash Player 8 and above have restriction on not
accessing the local files directly?
thanks

Link button does not link to the right record.

Hi,
I have created a matrix, and I have made one of the column type as link button. The matrix is loaded with Sales Quotation record, and the DocNo column is a link button. For example, when i pressed the link button of record with DocNo = 10, but the Sales Quotation form pop out is record with DocNo = 8, anyone encountered this problem??? anyone have any solutions on this???
I have tried this with other marketing document object, such as Sales Order and Invoice, the same problem occured... huh, one more thing, if i did not set the document numbering series, the code is working fine, once i set the document numbering series, then this problem will happen ... hope to hear from you guys ...thanks in advanced!!!

Hi,
I suppose the reason of this behavior is that the link button relates using the DocEntry value, and not the DocNum fields value.
What we usually do is to have 2 columns, on the first the DocEntry, and in the second one the DocNum. Then we set the DocEntry Column´s width to 20, and then only the orange arrow is shown.
This way, you get the behavior and appearance you need.
Hope that helps.

                        Dim oMatrix As SAPbouiCOM.Matrix
                        Dim doc As String
                        oMatrix = Frm.Items.Item(pVal.ItemUID).Specific
                        doc = Trim(oMatrix.Columns.Item("Docno").Cells.Item(pVal.Row).Specific.Value)
                        Dim oForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form
                        Dim blnBool As Boolean = False
                        For frm As Integer = 0 To app.Forms.Count - 1
                            Try
                                If app.Forms.Item(frm).UniqueID = "PI" Then

                            End Try
                        Next
                        If blnBool = False Then
                            app.ActivateMenuItem("PI")
                            oForm = app.Forms.Item("PI")
                            oForm.Select()
