Lock textarea.swf widget for editing

I am using Captivate 6 for a presentation that requires text to be displayed on a slide in a scrolling region. The testarea.swf widget seems ideal for this BUT I have one problem: I don't want the user to be able to enter or change text in this scrolling region during playback.
Is there some way to lock the area for editing during playback?
I have no intention of using Presenter 8---already decided it does not have the right combination of features so I'm taking the slightly longer but better looking route with Captivate.
On a related note.....does anyone know if there is a variable that represents the content of the Captivate "slide notes" pane? That would give me another option I could use.
Steve

Hi there,
Welcome to Adobe Community.
I am sorry but the text inside the textarea.swf cannot be locked. The only variable that can be used with Closed Captions is cpCmndCC which shows and hides the closed captions.
Thanks!

What is the "variable" field in the timer.swf widget for?

I have captivate 7, and would like to know what the variable field is for in the timer widget and how to use it...
Thank you!

Hi Lilybiri,
I am playing with $$cpInfoElapsedTimeMS$$....
I have an action attached to a button in my project that assigns my variable $$TimeSoFar$$ with $$cpInfoElapsedTimeMS$$. That is all this action does. I also have a text caption that includes $$TimeSoFar$$ on the same slide. When I enter the slide $$TimeSoFar$$ in the text caption is 0, as that is the original value I set to the variable. This makes sense. When I trigger the for the first time with the button, I receive a negative number in my text caption as the value for $$TimeSoFar$$. When I trigger that action a second time, it seems to be correct ans is the correct value of $$TimeSoFar$$ . It is also correct everytime after that.
Any idea why this is happening?
Thank you !

Understand further about "excel files is locked for editting by me"

Hi friends. I hope you are doing well.
i have a problem with an user in my office when opening an excel file from Server:
“<file_name>.xlsx is locked for editing” . The error shows that it is being used by its own user and that user could not open this file.
- Our company is domain network and our Domain Controller is also File Servers.
* I got a workaround action plan is: "unshared the folder which contains the problematic files in server, then share it again". However, this only works with folders which contain a small volume of data. For several GB it will take a considerable
time and affect to network availability.
I have few questions:
1. Is there anyway to kill the process/service which is controlling the "excel files" at server ? ( Since i reboot client machine but the error message still persists), beside my workaround action plan.
2.When i use OpenFilesView (from the link: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/opened_files_view.html) i can see that the excel files is opened by 2 process : "xlsx and xls" from remote computer. However, i can not kill the process using OpenFilesView.
So i would like to ask: Is there any way to kill a process from remote host?
3. What actually happens when sharing a files from Server in domain ? ( mechanism of sharing files)
I would appreciate if you can give me some advices for my concern.
Thank you very much! Have a good day.

Hi,
We have a lot of possible causes for this error, I would suggest your to take a look at this public blog and try the steps out there:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/the_microsoft_excel_support_team_blog/archive/2012/05/14/the-definitive-locked-file-post.aspx
Also, below KB article describes the way that how Excel saves files, you might also want to take a look. There may be some softwares or process is accessing these temporary files. Check if there is any temporary file (~$filename.xls
or ~$filename.xlsx) in the shared folder, delete them and try again.

NWDI - Track locked for editing in another session

While editing Track Data in the CMS Landscape Configurator my browser session died unexpectedly. I logged back in, but now when I try to enter Change mode on the Track Data tab, I get a message saying the "Track is locked for editing by (me) in another session". How do I unlock the track? I have searched Help documents, SAP Notes, and this forum but have not found any details.
Version is NetWeaver 2004s SP13
Edited by: Ray Erdelyan on Jan 14, 2008 8:08 PM
A co-worker helped me figure it out. We went to the visual administrator and killed the session. That released the lock.
Edited by: Ray Erdelyan on Jan 14, 2008 8:35 PM

Hi,
Usually the browser session will get unlocked on its own after some particular time. Incase this is not so in your case, a restart of the CMS server might help.

In iTunes I click on a song and when I click on the "get info" tab, it opens up but everything is gray - locked, therefore, I cannot edit the year or genre of the songs. Not every song is locked, only certain ones for some reason. Any help?

In iTunes I click on a song and when I click on the "get info" tab, it opens up but everything is gray - locked, therefore, I cannot edit the year or genre of the songs. Not every song is locked, only certain ones for some reason. Any help?

I ran into the same problem, I think that, If you tab on a song that is on your IPOD, and the song data is grayed-out, I think it means that the song is probably twice on your IPOD and that the iTunes directory can not edit THAT song data for two (or more) files @once. Check if this is the case, sinceI have the same problem,am looking for a way to have One and the same song in more playlists but only keep the song once on the IPOD.

How to open/import an swf for editing

I have had a coder create a presentation for my site, he
designed it with Flash 8, and it has some minor text/spelling
mistakes that I would like to repair. I have installed Suite 8, and
have downloaded the files from my server, but can't figure out how
to "import" or open them in Flash 8 for editing? They only open as
the swf, and cannot be edited? HELP!

i have no ideas mainly because FLAs are like snowflakes - no
2 are alike - there's a myriad ways a
project could be setup in terms of timelines, movie clips,
symbols, actionscript methods - need to
study the FLA to at least try and suggest something - so post
it and supply the URL for someone who
has time to download and investigate it. thats your best bet.

Customizing settings for parked document for edit lock while in workflow

Hi all,
I want to lock a parked document from edit while in workflow, I have seen in my previous project that if any document in workflow if try to change it used to give a message that 'document in wirkflow'. how to set this setting for parked documents using FIPP.
Thanks

Hi,
Please read note 169732.
It is normal that you get this errror message "Park document blocked xxxxxx" if you try to park a document for which "Release necessary" is set but "Released" flag is not set.
Normally in workflow the "Released" flag is set in a background step right before the workflow posts the documents.

Locking fields for editing once BP role is changed

Hi,
we are on CRM 5.2, we have a requirement that we wish to lock down few fields for further editing on account's screen once the BP role is changed say from a prospect to a customer.
we dont want few sales users to edit these fields once the bp role is changed.
any help in this regard is appreciated.
thanks
RH

Hello RH,
Lets take for example view crm_ic\bupadetailB2B
check in HTML file yiu will find an E-MAIL inputfield.
there is an attribute disabled = "<%= DefaultAddress->GET_I_EMAIL( )%>
that means that in context node DefaultAddress (class CL_CRM_IC_BUPADETAILB2B_CN00 ) there is a method GET_I_EMAIL( ).
got to this method and you will see that this method has a rv_disabled parameter.
if its TRUE means that the field will be disabled,
if its FALSE means that the field will be enable.
So All you need to do it's make your checks in the method and decide wich value to assign to the rv_disabled parameter.
Good Luck

Help Needed!! embeding a swf widget into a flash site

Hi all.
I am currently making a flash site for a band, and need to
embed an external SWF widget into it.
Its easy enough to embed it into HTML page, but idealy this
site will endup a single SWF file, to make distribution onto the
bands various pages (MYspace etc) easier.
The code to embed in html is:
<embed src="
http://www.soundclick.com/player/V2/mp3player200.swf"
width="200" height="140"
flashvars="bandid=850463&playType=band&ext=1&testMode=0&autoplay=1"
name="MP3PlayerBasic" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
wmode="transparent" pluginspage="
http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
/>
Some one told me it should be no probs to embed a swf with
some sort of LoadMovie command, but he didnt have a qule about
assigning flashvars to it.
Any help here would ge greatly apreciated.
Cheers.
Sion

I am listening to you and was letting you know that the code that I am trying to use is probably from an old forum. The code that Flash CS4 cranks out is about 10 pages long which seems a little much just to import an .swf with a transparent background. I don't imagine CS6 would be much shorter.
From what I gathered, the html file checks to see what version of Flash you're using as well as what browser. The code for that is insane in my opinion and I am trying to keep my html file for my homepage rather small. I had no problem importing this in DW with a transparent background (when I was using DW) but am using Komodo Edit as my HTML editor now as it didn't come with Production Premium that I just got.
If you know the correct (newer) code, that would import an .swf with a transparency, that would be most be useful. If not I guess I'll just wait for someone to reply that does.
I will try to extract the code from the CS4 HTML file and use that, but did already try it once and it didn't work. If all else fails, I'll just download a trial version of DW and/or Flash CS6 and see if I can figure out how I did it on a website I developed a couple years ago (that I lost the files from in a HD crash).

What is best type of 'new' video camera to buy for editing with PE 10?

I currently own two Sony miniDV camcorders (models DCR-HC28 and HC40) and was doing fine in Premiere Elements and recently upgraded to version 10. I was in the process of using the HC40 cam as a 'pass-through' device to digitize some old VHS tapes, and it worked well for copying from VHS to miniDV tape. Then, I could capture in Premiere Elements and edit, etc. (It would never work to pass all the way through to capture in PE in one step using Firewire). Now, the HC40 camera has locked up on me halfway through my box of VHS tapes, and is stuck showing the Time/Date screen and the touch screen seems to be disabled. What to do?
There do exist plenty of used DCR-HC40 and 52s (which also support pass-through) on Amazon for sale in the $200 range, and that is one option. I also went to Best Buys this week and looked at all the new Sony video cameras, and they fell into basically two series: the DCR-SX series, which record in standard definition onto flash memory (SD cards), and the more expensive HDR-CX series, which record in Hi Definition (also on SD cards) but also, I was told, can record in standard definition. The miniDV camcorders are no more, apparently. I am not so enamored of HD recording that I would go whole hog for it, as I am happy with the results I have been getting with my miniDV cameras once burned to DVD or converted to MPEG or MP4 for playing on my iPhone, etc. Plus, HD takes up so much more memory and space on the hard drive compared to standard def files.
I called Sony tech services today to find out that none of the new cameras support the pass-through function for digitizing from old VHS cassettes, so I am looking at buying a VHS-digitizing device as recommended here on the forum such as the ADS Pyro AV Link or Grass Valley ADVC110. Since I would rather spend that money on a new video camera instead of merely the AV link device which I will have no use for once the tapes are digitized, my question comes back to the cameras. Which of the new cameras will be most ideal for editing in PE10 going forward, or is it best to stick with miniDV for now?
Steve G has always seemed to point out that miniDV tape and the ensuing AVI files are the best for PE to work with. Sony told me today that even the SD cameras such as the DCR-SX65SD ($219) now record onto the SD cards in MPEG2 format, and that AVI is a thing of the past that died with the miniDV tapes. I assume MPEG2 still comes out as different clips that one assembles on the Timeline in PE10? One probably could convert the MPEG2 files to AVI, but would that give the same quality as an original AVI file from a miniDV tape? And if MPEG2 is the new standard going forward, do the resulting videos made with PE10 have the same quality as those made from 'native' AVI files? I will buy a used DCR-HC40 miniDV camera if the end result is better than those to be obtained with the brand new DCR or HDR series cameras now available in stores. But if the quality is the same, I could perhaps opt for one such as the HDR-CX 130HD ($349) which also records in SD in case some years from now I decide I really DO want to switch to HD formats.
Any advice on choice/use of the newer cameras and their default formats such as MPEG2 is welcome, in relation to PE10 editing and output capabilities.
Thanks very much,   paultool3

Dear JM and Steve,
Thanks much for your replies. I plan to get my DCR-HC40 miniDV camera fixed so I can use it for pass-through digitizing from VHS tapes. I also recently bought one of the Dazzle Video Creator Platinum capture units ($84 at Best Buys) just to try it, and actually got pretty good results in digitizing a VHS-C tape using a VHS-C to VHS adapter unit to play it in our VCR, and then using the Pinnacle Studio HD (version 15) that came with the Dazzle unit to import and digitize through the Dazzle unit.
The Dazzle unit would not show up in Premiere Elements 10 as an option to capture from, but did in Pinnacle Studio 15.   I used our Sony VAIO with i7 processor and Pinnacle captured the one hour, twenty-five minute- long VHS-C tape to a single 18GB .AVI clip which I then was able to bring into Premiere Elements 10 and use for output in various formats.
When using a less powerful laptop initially, the digitizing failed, with 319 dropped frames in the first 5 minutes.. So it takes a more powerful computer to work with a capture unit like Dazzle, apparently.
I will eventually be shopping around for a new, AVCHD format video camera as well based on your recommendations, but the current group of Sonys in this category, such as the HDR-CX130HD ($349) which record video onto SD cards, are getting bad reviews from CNET, claiming they have poor quality HD and other issues. So for the forseeable future I will be sticking with miniDV using my Sony DCR-HC28 and HC40 camcorders.

Dreamweaver freezes whendownloading a page for editing.

When I try to download a pagein DW for editing from my website, DW will not display the page. It indicates that all the essential files are downloading, but when it get to the place where I would expect to get a display of the page in design view, it just spins. The only thing I can do then is force close the program. Help! The website is www.enonumc.com

Hi Dennis -
I notice a few anomalies in your code which may be relevant.
In several places you have links to targets which are one level above the root folder on your server.
(wherever the link path starts with ../ )
Most hosts will not allow access to folders and files above the server root, so perhaps your FTP transfer is stalling DW in the attempt to access these files
For instance on your home page:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../enonumc.css" type="text/css" />
<script src="../Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>

Google Maps widget for Captivate 4

Hi people,
I am planning to create a google maps widget for captivate 4. Something like it will load a map of the location(longitude,latitude) set by the project author in the published SWF at runtime.
If you like the idea, then please give your suggestions and options which you would like to see in the widget. Then what kind of controls you want to have in the widget.

Hey there,
Take a look at this web address
