you can't call MSI files. EXEC can only call executable type
of files, exe, bat, com....

  • Making a button that onclick opens email program

    What is the code to make a button that onclick opens the
    user's email
    program?
    Thanks.

    I think you can simply treat it as a URL -- prefaced with
    "mailto:". As in "mailto:[email protected]". Then, make a URL
    Request with it.

  • Help making a "button" that appears mid-track

    So... I have a client who's making a French version of a program that has already been made once in English. The English version was not made by me so i'm starting from scratch with some brand new assets.
    The English version has a feature I've not seen before so I'm unsure how to recreate it exactly. Basically, the main program of the disc comes in 2 flavors. the first is just your basic video program with chapter markers for each segment and an end jump to the main menu. the second is whats puzzling me. the program itself is the same video however at certain points during the program a "button" pops up which allows for a jump to another menu. i say "button" in quotes because i'm not sure its the right word.
    what happens is a translucent gray box pops up in the lower left hand corner of the screen that has some text in it with instructions to press the enter button on your remote if you'd like to see a related video. when one presses enter on the remote the DVD then jumps to a sub menu which corresponds to the appropriate supplemental program. the button comes up during the end of one chapter and visually is gone within a few second but the functionality of that button is still available for the first 20 or so seconds of the following chapter and then is disabled until the next instance.
    my question is: what is that gray box button thing? is it scripting or something? i've never seen this before. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • Buttons that expand/reveal on hover?

    Hey guys,
    I was wondering if there is any way to create buttons that expand to their full size when the user rolls over their minimum size?
    For example:
    Demo 4 here: Animated Buttons with CSS3
    or
    the 'Friends' or 'Cheap Mobile Website' tabs to the right of this page: DesignEasy: Creating rollover buttons in Photoshop for Adobe Captivate project
    My aim is to have ribbon-like tab 'nubbins' at the top of the screen that expand downwards to reveal an icon (like '?') that the user can click to navigate somewhere (i.e. '?' would take them to a help page or open a help popup). I'd like to be able to do this with just native Captivate (using 8), or if not combining it with javascript etc.
    Any advice?
    Thanks!

    Hey guys, just to update this:
    I am at the moment playing around with the following technique.
    1. Create an image of the button in its 'unused' state, i.e. the minimum size it will ever be, and position it where you like the expanding button to be. We'll call this the 'button background image'.
    2. Create a rollover image where a) the rollover area is completely transparent, b) the rollover area is positioned over the button background image, c) the image triggered by the rollover area is exactly the same, and positioned exactly the same, as the button background image.
    3. Add an effect to the image triggered by the rollover area. It should be a motion path to move the image down slightly (or left/right slightly if your button is on the side rather than at the top of the slide).
    4. Add an invisible button roughly the size of the rollover image (at its most extended size).
    My reservations are:
    - The technique seems a bit buggy, as not every time I preview in browser does it display correctly, but that might be to do with previewing it - perhaps a fully published version would work fine.
    - I have a sneaking suspicion that it won't work on all browsers but I don't know what I'm founding that suspicion on!
    - You can't have the nice 'motion out' effect that you can achieve when making this kind of button in html/javascript/etc. it just 'jumps' back to the original position rather than sliding back out. I have added an exit motion path to this button so that if the object times out it will do this, but it's a shame not to be able to have it when the user moves the mouse away from the button in general.
    Any thoughts?

  • How to create a dropdown menu with sub buttons that link back to the labels on click.

    im trying to create a dropdown menu buttons that when you rollover to the top central button the button it opens up like a drop down menu would containg two other subsectional buttons. This makes the sub sectional buttons seperate from the main stage making it difficult to simply give them a on click,  sym.play("label") function.
    the buttons work like this in symbols or sections stage/panel/homebutton inside home button is group dev containg another group dev containg the button which I need to link back to a "label" in the /panel/ symbol or section. Thank you very much.

    Hi!
    I would like to create a DVD menu that offers two languages. So the first page gives two options: Language 1 and Language 2. Then depending on which language you choose, you go to a menu that proposes different videos and a photo slideshow.
    Regardless on which language button you click on initially, you get the same content but in different languages.
    I've been looking at Premiere's templates, which I can certainly customize, but I really don't see how to create the double menu. Does anybody have an idea?
    Put the video with the first language on the timeline followed by the video with the second language.  Use chapter markers so you can have each video as a chapter in the menu.
    I use Premiere Pro, so I can't give more specific directions. Perhaps somebody like ATR will chime in.
    Also, I have another question: can I put videos from different projects in the same DVD with Premiere or must all of the videos that go into the DVD be in the same project?
    Thank you very much!!!

    They must be in the same project.

  • Is there a way to fix an iPod touch 4G home button that isn't stuck but just doesn't work?

    A couple weeks ago my home button got stuck. To fix it I found this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBfhCmq9VkA&list=WL429346A18D0B1E65 to help me out. The second option of using the charger ended up working, thus making the button work again. It was working fine after doing that but then it got stuck down again and I had to put the charger in and do that again. However, all of a sudden the home button just doesn't work anymore. It's not even stuck all the way down. I can press it repeatedly but still nothing.
    I've had the iPod for about 6 months now and got it off of amazon refurbished so warranty is out of the question i'm sure. If it really is broken with no way to fix it then that's fine as i've been using assitive touch for weeks now and am used to it since i've been using it egulary since there's no other way. I just wanted to ask and make sure first before anything else though.

  • ERROR: An error occurred during the installation of assembly component / ERROR: Third party payload installer Adobe_Lightroom_x64.msi failed with exit code: 1603

    During the Installation of LR I get an error message. Initially I didn't have enough space for the installation on the start partition drive. However, now, it should be sufficient and I re-booted the computer a couple of time, hence I would assume that the temporary installation files have been deleted.
    Now, nevertheless each time I try to re-install the software I get the following messages:
    ERROR: An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {6435B7C0-E0C8-3EA2-91AE-7640034EAFCE}. HRESULT: 0x80070002.

    Since PS was installed without problems I would refrain from deinstalling the Creative Cloud and start over again.
    Any hints?

    I followed the ostensibly applicable steps outlined in the above linked articles and no go.
    Further, I have uninstalled and reinstalled .net framework two times.
    Adobe's tech support team has (according to their findings) "determined" that my windows .net framework is "corrupted" and as such my system will disallow the installation of any .msi programs; my only salvation (according to Adobe) is to fork over $100.00 to Microsoft for "advanced" Windows tech support. Earlier today I was easily able to install Silkypix RAW software which is a program having an .msi extension. This seems to contradict the Adobe technical team's findings. Moreover, I've had ZERO installation issues with any other developer's programs including Corel, Sony and a host of additional 3rd party programs- ponderous.
    As well, both Adobe Air and Acrobat function and routinely update on my system without incident. For the life of me I have no idea what to do to remedy this frustrating issue.
    In addition to the 1603 error, I see a 1935 error as well. I would greatly appreciate any useable suggestions to permit the installation of Lightroom and PS.
    Thanks!

  • Making a button rollover change a movie clip's frame

    Hi again everyone,
    I knew how to do this in AS2 but now I am having problems
    with making a button on the stage goto a frame in a movie clip on
    the stage.
    I've attached a sample of my code below, hopefully you'll see
    the error and be able to point it out to me?
    I have a movie clip on the stage that has different
    information in different frames. I want to make it so that when
    someone rolls over the button, the movie clip fades in and goes to
    the correct frame to display the information.
    With this setup the way it is below, I keep getting "Warning:
    3590: void used where a Boolean value was expected. The expression
    will be type coerced to Boolean.
    I know where the problem is happening, "function
    XXX(event:MouseEvent):void {navigateToURL(XXXweb)}"
    How can I write this differently and eliminate this problem?
    Thanks,
    Jeremiah

    I'll give that a shot, thanks!
    A follow up question to that one, is there a way to make it
    so that I can have one rolled over function applied to several
    buttons / frames in the movie clip? This movie clip has 50+ frames
    in it and if I could reduce my coding, it would make life a lot
    easier.
    Thanks,
    Jeremiah

  • Pressed "Run New installation" button while installation

    Hello Experts,
         I faced this issue one time that when i re-started the installation (had to stopped due to one error), accidentally clicked on "New installation" (By default this option is enabled) button which comes to first phage and took me again 2 days to complete the installation. I stopped that installation instantly but failed, gone to fresh installation.
    Now my query is, Can we go for old installation, at what phage it was stopped earlier ?
    I know it will help for so many persons.. Waiting for your valuable replays...
