Muse composition widget

Hi - I am using the Muse Composition Widget -- News and Events section on my homepage. Is there someway I can have a certain news event be the first to be seen/open when a user comes to the page.
I have it on shuffle now. Appreciate any help on this if someone knows if this feature is available and/or how this might be configured. Thanks very much.

Under the fly-out menu turn off "Shuffle" if you want a specific image/content to show first.
Select the "trigger" that you want to show first and set "Arrange" to "Send To Back". This will display/open first when viewed in a browswer.

Can I have 2 Muse Composition widgets using the same triggers?

I have a page with 2 compositions. One fades in some images and the other rolls in some text from off the screen. Each has 3 triggers. I want them to be linked by the same trigger. At the minute, to see the image with the corresponding text I have to select the trigger for each one. Its quite annoying. Is there an easy fix for this that I am missing something obvious?
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi
We cannot use same trigger for different targets as they would overlap each other and only the one on top will be active.
By looking at the purpose , I would suggest you to insert image and text in same container so that rollover action should show up the image and text at same time.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Muse Crashes After Editing Composition Widget and Trying to Preview

I'm working on a site that has a Composition widget (used as a slideshow, stacked options). To duplicate some content I go to one trigger container, Copy a graphic, select the next trigger then Paste In Place. After doing a few of these I try to Preview (sometimes in Muse, sometimes in Browser) but Muse invariable crashes with the message "DBCW/assertTheDataBaseFileIsUnchange- Database file has been modified externally".
I tried saving the site first, then Previewing, but Must still crashes with the same message.
Right now I need to shut Muse down before Previewing my work, not the greatest workflow.
This is Release v 7.2, Build 232, Build 779928.
Thanks for any HELP!

Yup, that was it. The site muse file was on an NAS; I moved it to my local drive and the problem went away. Inconvenient to be sure, but at least I can work. I'm going to try to put the site muse file on an external USB drive, maybe I can make it portable that way.
Thanks for the response.

How can I change the order of thumbnails so it affects the order in the lightbox when using the composition widget - lightbox display?

Hi, I'm making my portfolio in Muse, and I'm using the composition widget - lightbox display. I imported all the images and then I wanted to reorganize the thumbnails - and when I do that, the order in the lightbox doesn't change and so it's not the same as the order of the thumbnails (after rearranging them). Please let me know if there is a way to fix this quickly, or do I have to do it all one more time

The order the items display in a composition widget is the front to back order of the items. You can rearrange the stacking order of the thumbnails/triggers using the Layers panel and/or the Object > Bring To Front, Send To Back, etc. menu items to adjust the order they're displayed during auto play or when clicking the next/previous buttons.

Can I add a new trigger to the beginning instead of at the end of a blank composition widget?

Hi guys,
I am creating a photo gallery page using the Blank Composition widget. I want to be able to add new content regularly by adding new photos to the top (beginning) of the gallery so my newest photos show at the beggining of the gallery.
Currently, the little + symbol to add another trigger only adds a new trigger to the right (bottom) of group of triggers, effectively putting newly added content to the back of the gallery instead of at the front. Am I able to get it to add a new trigger to the beginning of the group and have that trigger be the first in the group to display?
All the widget's seem to display this same order behaviour, so I'm quite stuck on how to get around this. I've tried re-arranging the triggers, but that has become insanely cumbersome every time I want to add new photos to the beginning of the group and move the older ones further down the gallery order.
Any help would be greatly appreciated with this, cheers, David.

OK
I'm a newbie.
I have the same problem. I've looked at some recommended 3rd party widgets and they don't do what I want either.
Another method would be to start a nabble.com blog and embed that in to Muse, but then the news would not be seen by web crawlers and benefit your ranking on your own page. (I think)
This is a rubbish work around but, I'm going to add a new news widget every month. I only get 5-6 bits of news a month, so by adding a new widget above the last each time, that will push the old news down the page.
Hope this helps someone.

Bring Composition widget to the base of footer on a master page?

I'm having difficulties getting the composition widget to meet flush with the bottom of the footer on a master page. I have the footer check box ticked for the widget and all looks okay in the design window. But once I publish or preview the site the composition is pushed above the other elements on the footer.
< design window
< preview window
Can anyone shed some light on why Muse is doing this and any way to possibly fix it so the composition sits evenly at the base of the page?
Thanks for your help!

Hi
Please group the objects you are using as footer and then check footer from control strip.
Thanks,

How can i disable "browser-auto-load" for different iframe-contents in a composite widget?

Hey there,
i´ve got a lil topic going on with a Website (One-Site-Layout with anchors), created with muse
i putted 20 iframes (each one routed to its own trigger) in a composite widget. Everything is working perfect for me and the users, but :
The deliverer of the iframe-contents (pretty big picture galeries) told me, his server crashes, because every single time, someome enter the Website, the browser i loading every single iframe-content in this widget automatically > so the traffic is way to large, and i need a solution that simply load every single content after a click on the right trigger, not before.
thank you so much!

That is not possible.

Slideshows within composition widgets

Is it possible when inserting different slideshows into a composition widget (different slideshows placed within different targets) to have the slideshows start from the beginning when the corresponding trigger is clicked? I'd like the slideshow to play in order, starting with the first slide, when the trigger is clicked rather than have it playing continuously when viewing other targets.

Hello,
Unfortunately it is not possible to start the Slideshow when the Composition Trigger is clicked.
All the slideshows with Autoplay option enabled start as soon as the page loads.
I would suggest you to post this as a feature request on our "Ideas for features in Adobe Muse" section of the forums : http://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas

Slideshow Starts When Clicking Trigger in Composition Widget

When inserting different slideshows into a composition widget (different slideshows placed within different targets), have the slideshows start from the beginning when the corresponding trigger is clicked. The slideshow would play in order, starting with the first slide, when the trigger is clicked rather than have it playing continuously when viewing other targets.

This seems like a no-brainer. I mean why would we want all slideshows to start at the same time when you're only viewing one at a tme. WHen I click from one slideshow to another, it should start from ONE! Muse staff....any ideas?!!!

Overlay multiple composition widgets

Is there a way to overlay multiple composition widgets? I am overlaying 2 blank widgets and within Muse it works but when I preview the webpage it doesn't work. For example, the trim of the shirt can be changed to red, while the main shirt can be changed to blue. In design mode, I have overlayed a blank widget with a blank widget. Widget A has the main shirt images in 3 different colors, while widget be has the trim in 3 different colors. Is this possible?

Hi Jawad,
Just realised that you posed this in the Machine Vision section so you're using IMAQ.
When you look at the example below, you'll see this is just using two images.
https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-25452
Inside the For Loops, the colours of each image array is being change on every iteration, then the two image arrays are combined into one.
You should be able to edit this code by simply indexing another image array into the for loop, building this (along with the two other image arrays) into the final array.
Good luck!

Can you make a composition widget act like an accordion widget?

Is it possible to make a composition widget act like an accordion widget? The reason I ask is because the styling that I can do inside of a composition widget is much more than that of a accordion widget which is just a simple text frame, makes it impossible to add images/icons where I would like to. The only work around to this is to make a .psd file with my states already predefined in it, however If I have to resize the widget for any reason I then have to go and edit the psd file vs just simple moving the items in muse.

Hi
How exactly you are trying to style the text or image ?
You can insert any object or widget in accordion , add image or draw a rectangle with different states defined. You can resize while placing the image etc.
If this is not you are looking for , then please elaborate as what specific changes you are looking for the object in accordion.
Composition and Accordion , both are different and works differently but you can use accordion itself and make the changes to text or image anything inserted in the container.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Slideshow within composition widget - 100%width image causes bug

Hi community,
I asked once before for a solution.
Tried to solve it by myself, but everything I tried didn't change the problem and no one posted something similar.
I placed a combination of a composition and a slideshow widget at my site because I want to have
- triggers on which you can klick
- 100% width images
- the background images of the middle part of the site should change together with the slideshow image
So I placed in every target of the composition widget a slideshow with only one image (set to 100% width) and the other elements.
When I start the preview in the browser (Safari+Firefox), the images of the slideshow are set to 100% indeed, but the most times during the slideshow they are shifted to the right (always to the position where the other content starts),
or - if I have a very small browser window - they are shifted to the left.
In that moment I change the size of browser window a bit, they switch back to their 100%width look.
Can anyone help me?
Add some screenshotsr better understanding
If I set the images not to 100%width it works well.
Thanks
nadine

Did you find an answer to this? If so, it would be great to see what you found.
If not, I've come up with a workaround although it's not the best designed solution, but it works.
First an explanation. Although I didn't spend enough time researching Adobe Muse generated JavaScript for all the details, I found that the slideshow seems to correctly dynamically set its pixel width to a width that spans the browser window, however the css left property is not always dynamically adjusting properly and therefore shifts the image off of the screen. This appears to be something buggy or unintentional with the Adobe Muse generated code.
So to solve this, the workaround is to keep triggering the window resize event so that the left property updates through the Adobe Muse generated script. It would be better of course to trigger this only when the slideshow changes. Or would even be better if the Adobe Muse team fixes the bug as well as makes it easier to create 100% width compositions so that the slideshow workaround is not even needed.
In the meantime, here's how to implement the fix:
1) In Adobe Muse, go to the page that your slideshow exists on
2) Object > Insert HTML...
3) Paste the below JavaScript
<script>
function triggerResize() {
//trigger resize event
if (document.createEvent) { // W3C
    var ev = document.createEvent('Event');
    ev.initEvent('resize', true, true);
    window.dispatchEvent(ev);
} else { // IE
    document.fireEvent('onresize');
//call the trigger evey 100 milliseconds
setInterval(function () {triggerResize();}, 100);
</script>

Composition widget slideshow won't auto resume on mobile

I have a composition widget which is working as a slideshow. Works absolutely fine on desktop but the scaled down mobile version won't auto resume once you touch a slide.
I have tried changing resume after times but it makes no difference. It also makes no difference if show target is set to click or rollover.
If anyone can offer any suggestions, it's the first time I've encountered this issue!
Thanks.
It

yes thank you, that does solve the problem. I'm guessing this is an issue with muse, its a pity you can't still have swipe and auto-resume, maybe Adobe could comment on this?
Thanks again

Using the Blank Composition Widget

Hey guys,
I'd like to know if it's possible (and how) to configure the Blank Composition Widget to show only the new blog posts, let's say five that would update automatically as I would add more to the BC Blog, without the need to go into Muse and constant updating.
Thank U so much.
The one who answers this will be a lifesafer

Hi im8,
You can refer to the following link for a jam session, its on integrating a blog from BC. http://tv.adobe.com/watch/muse-feature-tour/muse-advanced-cms-integration/

Basic Composition Widget HIDE TARGET on CLICK not working on PHONE layout?

Hi all this relates to behaviour with basic Composition widget when in PHONE layout - When all elements set to HIDE TARGET on CLICK in the PHONE layout a 'click' on the target does not hide it...
APPLICATION
Using a basic composition widget [single trigger] for the PHONE menu drop down.
Everything works except clicking on an item in the target area does not hide the target.
Important because I am kinking to anchors on the same page - the links all work - the page scrolls behind the menu!
It's PHONE so can't use Hide on "Roll Out"

Hello,
You would need to make sure that all the containers (Targets and Triggers and the Container inside which the Triggers reside) have a reduced width in order to have a reduced width of the whole slideshow.
In case you are still facing issues, please provide us some screenshots where we can check the issue.
You can also contact our chat support using the steps mentioned in the article : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/support-options-muse.html
