Making multiple buttons out of one picture?

Ok this is probably a daft question but I'm a complete novice so bear with me. I need to know if it's possible to upload a picture to my Flash stage (a row of buttons I made in photoshop) and then somehow select each of these buttons and turn them into working button symbols? Or do I have to (very annoyingly) upload each button as a seperate picture in a seperate layer before turning it into a button symbol?
Thanks : )

kglad knows much, much more than I do and actually helped me out the other day. But, I think I could elaborate a little. Below is exactly what he said, step by step.
Draw a square> right click> > convert to symbol> name it generic button> ok> double click button> go to the hit frame> right click> insert frame> go to the up frame> right click> insert key frame> click in the up frame again> delete> go back to scene 1
The button now is transparent (kind of). This generic button is just that a generic button. You can duplicate it or drag it multiple times from the library panel. Place as many as you need on stage. Ex. you have 5 generic buttons on stage. Flash cannot tell the difference between each button. You need to give each button an instance name, so flash knows what button you're talking about when you start writing the code for it.
Next
click on a button> properties panel> give instance name (first_btn)> repeat for each button second_btn,, third_btn etc...
Then write the code to control each button.
Hope this was helpfull. Just paying it forward.

Creating multiple shapes out of one image

Hi!
I tried several times now, but I just cant seem to get it. I have an image of person, with which I want to crop that person out of the background with the bezier tool. But I need to create multiple shapes to cover some background f.x under his arms. How can I do this?

You realize I cannot see your screen, right? I do not understand your use of the terms "crop out" and "cover…under hsi arms." If you remove him, how are his arms still in the shot?
Do you need multiple masks on one layer or do you need a different mask for every frame of video? That is called rotoscoping and is easily researched.

IOS4 upgrade created multiple calendars out of one

I use MobileMe to keep a "Master" calendar sync'd across all my devices - iPhone, iPad, laptop, etc. It has been working fine. After upgrading my 3G to iOS4, iCal on all my devices now shows multiple master calendars, with my "master" events spread out among them. It appears as if there is now a separate "Master" calendar for each of my devices - taken all together, they provide all the correct events as before. However, I also publish my Master calendar so my wife can see it in her iCal. She now sees only those events from one of the masters. Is there a way to merge all these calendars back into one? Thanks!

I am having the same problem. I have now put on a new iphone and ipad. I now have over 30 home calendars.

Making multiple tracks play as one track in a certain order during shuffle

Many albums have songs that are ment to be played in order as if they were one song such as a song with a prelude. On most CDs, these are stored as separate tracks that get played out of order during shuffle. Is there a way to link specific tracks together so they will always be played in order even during shuffle?

Drawing Multiple Shapes Out of One

Hi everyone,
I am building a marketing brochure, and I wanted to know if it were possible to make one shape into many using just inDesign. In the sample image, you can see the polygon includes multiple shapes from what appears to be a larger shape. The pen and rectangle tool can get some of the shapes, but the more cumbersome ones, i.e., such as a shape similar to the one below the "goals" text seem almost impossible to do with just the pen or rectangle tool.

See this quick video.
To make a rounded corner for one side hold down shift key then drag.

How to create a button like the one pictured here

How would I create a button like the print button below?
I was thinking actually make it two separate buttons placed next to each other. The print button obviously would just be a modified boolean, that's easy. But the drop down is a bit harder. I figure I could customize a drop down but because I haven't been able to play around with it in LabVIEW (don't have it at home) I'm not sure if you can modify the alignment of the box that actually drops down etc. Is the drop down box location and look something you can modify within the control editor?
I'm guessing I could also use .net correct? But I am trying to keep it all with just control modification in LabVIEW if possible. Thanks.

I'd use a multicolumn listbox and toggle it's visibility when the user clicks on the button. I've attached an example:

SqlLoader: how to create multiple records out of one CSV input line?

A question concerning the SQL-Loader.
I need to load data from a CSV file where one of the CSV values determines how many records should be inserted.
Example of the input data:
KEYWORD;2;REC1_COL1_X,REC1_COL2_X;REC2_COL1_X;REC2_COL2_X
KEYWORD;3;REC1_COL1_Y;REC1_COL2_Y,REC2_COL1_Y;REC2_COL2_Y;REC3_COL1_Y;REC3_COL2_Y
KEYWORD;4;REC1_COL1_Z;REC1_COL2_Z,REC2_COL1_Z;REC2_COL2_Z;REC3_COL1_Z;REC3_COL2_Z,REC4_COL1_Z;REC4_COL2_Z
If the KEYWORD is found, then the next value determines how many value pairs will follow, and therefore how many rows should be created in the affected DB table.
As a result I hope to achieve this:
SELECT Column1, Column2 FROM testTable
REC1_COL1_X,REC1_COL2_X
REC2_COL1_X;REC2_COL2_X
REC1_COL1_Y;REC1_COL2_Y
REC2_COL1_Y;REC2_COL2_Y
REC3_COL1_Y;REC3_COL2_Y
REC1_COL1_Z;REC1_COL2_Z
REC2_COL1_Z;REC2_COL2_Z
REC3_COL1_Z;REC3_COL2_Z
REC4_COL1_Z;REC4_COL2_Z
I learned how to import data using Oracle SQL loader for cases where one input line more or less matches a (new) row in a DB table. But how to handle this?

Hello 784948.
Assuming that the delimiter is a comma, and also assuming that the number of pairs is limited to four, you could use the following tested control fileLOAD DATA

How to use one pop up window for multiple buttons and input fields?

Hi Experts,
I have created a pop up window that will be opened from multiple buttons in the same view. There are input fields that the data will be populated from a pop up window. How can I set up which button that a pop up window is opened from? I also would like to populate the data from a pop up window to the input field next to a clicked button. There are 6 buttons and 6 input fields that share the same pop up window. I would very appreciate your responses.
Thank you,
Don

Hi,
Try creating 2 context attributes, one in your component controller and the other in the pop-up view. Bind the attribute of pop-up view to the component controller attribute.
In the main view, on click of every button set a unique code in the controller's context which helps you in identifying the button clicked. Since u have created a binding to the pop-up view attribute the value flows from the controller.
In the init method of your pop-up view, check the value of the attribute and based on that display which ever UI elements are required.
Eg:
On Button 1 click set value "B1", Button 2 value "B2" etc. In the init() of pop-up view u can check the values and perform the required operation:
if(("B1").wdContext().currentContextElement().getButtonIdentifier()){
else...{
Hope this helps you.

How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

My HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One printer won´t print out documents, just pictures ...

My HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One printer won´t print out documents, just pictures. I´ve used the printer, since it was new on the marked, and it has worked perfectly until a few weeks back. There is no problem printing out pictures, but only blank pages comes out when I´m printing out documents. Regardless if it is Word, Excel etc.
I´ve never used anything else than original cartridges, and the printer is used on Mac OS X 10.7.4. I´ve tried to reinstall the printer several times without any success.

Can multiple button actions be implemented by creating just one RFC?

Hi All,
I wanted ask a general question "is it possible to create just one RFC for multiple button actions such as delete, insert, search, modify, copy".
I tried using one RFC for all the above mentioned actions but I wasn't able to consistently get expected results. So, I just want to confirm from SDN forum members that is it a good practice or is it advisible to create individual RFC for each button actions?
Earlier responses would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Uday

Hi,
I did not see any problem for that creation on multiple button actions such as delete, insert, search, modify, copy". These actions depending up on your RFC.
For Example. Your RFC having Insert and Delete Functionality you can develop these two Actions. i.e is depending upon your requirement and Depending upon you r RFC functionality. That
RFC donu2019t gave insert, Delete, modify these functionalities no need to create these Actions.
So there is no restriction for call the RFC Via Actions(buttons)
Hope this is help full for u
Regards
