Newbie-Click for Text

Rookie question. I want learners to be able to click various areas on a screen and get a text box with more detail. Have set up click spots with the text box as a Success Caption and set Timing to Rest of Slide (there is no Rest of Project option). But once the user clicks the spot and gotten the text box once, the text box won't appear when they click a second time, though the cursor still turns to a hand when it enters that area on the screen. It's like they were successful, so it's done!? There's GOTTA be a way to do this simple task. What am I missing?

Thanks, Rick. I'll give it a try. I think this is a little amusing. There are so many what seem to be more complex things available so simply in Captivate and this that seems so simple isn't!?!? Other than this, I am very impressed with Captivate. Being an original Authorware user, I'm finding Captivate is very cool!!

Hi again
Okay, Click and Show can be accomplished using Advanced Actions. Basically you insert the objects you wish to show, name them appropriately and turn off their visibility. Then you create Advanced Actions to show them.
I offer an eBook that covers Advanced Actions in some pretty deep detail. Or if you want, you can just keep going back and forth in the forums asking questions where you find you are blocked. Your call.
Cheers... Rick

What is the the tag I can use in a custom conversion publish/print template for click box text?

I have customized a conversion template to generate a storyboard but I can not find a tag to grab the text found in the click box text. I am able to grab all text captions from text boxes. HELP!

Not that I know of. 
Maybe it works if you would specify a font (!important) that doesn't have those glyphs.
See:

I have a Galaxy SIII and I stopped receiving visual notification for text messages. How do I correct it?

I have a Galaxy SIII and recently stopped receiving visual notification for text messages. How do I correct it?

Hmmm that's strange TopDiver. Let's get to the bottom of this. Have you checked the notification settings on the device? To verify the notification setting on the device click on menu>settings>sound>notification sound, then test device notifications.
Thank You,

My ringer is no longer working for text and email notifications. Only working for phone calls. I have gone through all the settings to see where something is off. Not finding anything. I have tried changing the tone and it just vibrates on everything.

My ringer is no longer working for text and email notifications. Only working for phone calls. I have gone through all the settings to see where something is off. Not finding anything. I have tried changing the tone and it just vibrates on everything.

Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

Can a ComboBox be used for Text Input ?

Hi
In Ms Access the combo box can be used for text input for creating new lines in the Database instead of just being limited to the lines already there in the drop down list. Is this possible with the combo box available in Flex 4. If it is I haven't being successful in getting it to work.
Thanks for you help in advance

Default text source for text tab in purchase requistion.

Hi,
issue is about text which pops up when someone try to create purchase requisition using me51n. some text shows up under Text-item texts-item text at document level.This text should not be populated when someone creates purchase requisition.can some one help in finding the source for that text and how to stop it popping up in purchase requisitions gong forward.
second part of this issue is. one buyer has reported the text shows up only when in change mode.once you save the requisition its gone. i have seen this on screen when creating requisition text is in text editor but once you save it its gone.another buyer who is responsible to create purchase order has reported they can see the text when converts it in to purchase order and by going in requisition text can be found.
last part of this problem is i can't see this all in quality system every time i create purchase requisition text editor is blank.i am creating service requisition so material master text is out of scope.
one thing i noticed when some one creates the requisition in text- item texts -there two texts items " text and material po text " that has a green Ok sign in corresponding Any text field
Thanks,

In standard, you can find the all links where the text is coming from.
Go to OLME-Purchase Requisition-Texts for Purchase Requisitions-Define Copying Rules
Here, select Item text and click on Text linkages. You will find the linkage from where the text is coming.
Second Part : Its quite not possible in standard, Check is there any development which is removing the text when you press save button.
Third Part: Yes. In standard, material PO text will come when you will use material in PR. Other than the field will show in your text line, but it will show blank.
The green tick mark shows when a text is successfully copied from any source.

How do I fix my animation presets for text that won't load? It seems to get locked in loop and I am forced close Adobe Bridge.

How do I fix my animation presets for text that won't load? It seems to get locked in a loop when I click on one and I am forced to "fore close" Adobe bridge which After Effects uses to locate the presets. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

What is your exact workflow? The proper procedure is to select your text layer in AE, find the text preset you want to use, then drag or double click that preset to apply it to your project.
It also helps if we know your version of AE and OS down to the decimal point. You didn't give us much to go on.

Eliminate printing Border for Text Field???

Is it possible to display border on the PDF and not print on the output for Text Field??? What settings and/or scripting I need to get this working? A sample form is really appreciated.

If you use the standard border (for example), you can use the JavaScript prePrint and postPrint for each field to make the border visible, and hidden. Here's how.
1.) Highlight Text Field in Designer.
2.) In the Script Editor, select the prePrint Event from the dropdown list on the top left. (This works in FormCalc or Javascript, although I tend to use JavaScript as the language in the right hand drop down)
3.) Type in (or paste) the following code:
this.border.presence = "hidden";
4.) Select the postPrint Event.
5.) Type in (or paste) the following code:
this.border.presence = "visible";
Now when you click print, it will make the outside border hidden, and when you cancel, the border will reappear. Now this will not make the 'Solid Box', or 'Sunken Box' of the text field hidden. The easy way to fix this, is set the 'Appearance' in the Object->Field palette to 'None'.
Cheers!
Jay

The mute button is also in the correct place (ring, not mute).

Search for text and font

I have an 800 page pdf document to index and so far I have a script that will search for a list of keywords. But the text has large sections of code in a different font, and I think we would like to generate an index of just code examples. Is there a way to search for text of a given font in applescript? Something like
set theSel to find text theText
if the font of theSel is "Times"
write to file, etc.

Please do send a page, I might be able to spot where the font problem is coming from - but no guarantee Address is in my profile.
You asked about the script formatter. red_menace of this forum wrote the script I use. To use it, you copy the script that you want to format to the clipboard and run the formatter. This then places the marked-up text in the clipboard so that you can paste it into the forum page.

Export quality grainy for TEXT / TITLE

Hello there,
Am kind of a newb, but am getting used to the basics and am happy with the video export quality. For some reason, the TITLE objects are coming out grainy, even when viewed at 100% size. I tried different output types, bitrates, changed fonts, font size, position, etc. Put black background behind, removed background, no matter what am still getting the fonts looking crappy once exported.
Some screenshots of what I see in the Premiere Pro output preview / workspace, and then a second shot showing the resulting output (same result in diff bitrates, just chose one as example)
In Pro:

Exported:
http://fms.whoajack.com/textIssue02.png
Any ideas?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Greg

DV is far from the best codec for text. But the real problem is that you're using FCP's built-in text generators. Instead, use the Boris Title 3D and Boris Title Crawl generators. They produce much cleaner vector-based text and have a ton of more options for creativity.

Boris - background for text

Hello! I have Tom Wolsky's DVD and book - read and watched once each, but somehow missed how to do this, if I can.
Using Boris for text - how can I add a rectangle of color behind the text, to help it stand out from the video behind it? Can I adjust the opacity so the video shows through?
I hope I've explained this well enough.
Even if you can tell me where to read in the book "Final Cut Express 4" Editing Workshop - or where to watch on the FCE Made Easy DVD - that would help!
Or do I need to use LiveType for this?

Hi -
To do this:
!http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/BorisRectShow.jpg!
Do this:
!http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/BorisTextStack.jpg!
Place your background video on V1.
Place your Text on V3.
Get a color background from the Generator button (lower right hand corner of the Viewer, marked with an "A") select Matte>Color and place that color on V2.
Double click the color clip you just placed on V2 and in the viewer click on the motion tab.
Open the Crop pane by clicking on the little triangle next to the word "Crop". Adjust the sliders to get the rectangle cropped the way you want it. You can also adjust the softness of the edge of the rectangle.
Open the Opacity pane by clicking on the little triangle next to the word "Opacity".
Adjust the opacity to your liking.
You will probably have to render the effect to see it play properly.
Hope this helps.

No new editor for Text elements in Smart forms

Hello all,
I've a problem on SAP demo system (version 7.2). When I add new Text element on window then on tab General Attributes I'm only able to see ComboBoxes for "Text Type", "Start", button pencil (for going into fullscreen old editor) and button for checking object. The last thing is that I can also see here label "Use the fullscreen text editor". When I've checked on other systems I saw that instead of that label there is new editor here, and clicking on pencil button leads to new fullscreen editor.
Does anybody know where I can enforce smartforms builder to use new editor?
Best regards
Marcin Cholewczuk
