NewBie Q : How to make one clickable shape jump to a slide with the same name of the shape (button c_1 to slide c_1 f.e.) .

I made some clickable placeholders on a masterslide
Then : a new slide based on that masterslide
and want to use one script or shared  action that says "on success jump to another slide with te samen name as the button...)
Sorry for this unusual semantic language.
But already thanks for answering!

PS I'm using a trial version to try out a branched interactive scenario. A choice of a user leads tot anothe slide with a video reaction followed by other choices,...)

Sorry, but I'm not a native English speaker, and I have some problems with your question.
The only interactive object that is possible on a master slide is a shape button. What do you mean by a 'clickable placeholder'?  Why I like Shape Buttons - Captivate 6! - Captivate blog  explains possibilities with shape buttons.  Maybe the idea to have such a shape button on a master slide is not the best, because you cannot control objects on master slides since they do not have an ID. You cannot give a name to a shape button on the master slide, which means the scenario you are talking about is just impossible?
Moreover: Captivate doesn't like to have the same name/label to be used for different objects. There are some exceptions, you can have an advanced action with the same name as the interactive object that is triggering that action, provided you label first the interactive object before labeling the action. With  "script" you probably mean an advanced action?
If you tried to explain what you want to do as detailed as possible, maybe I could propose something. You'll see that my blog is focussed on advanced and shared actions. One other puzzling sentence is 'same name as the button'? Are you really talking about the name of the button or about the label ON the button?

  • How to sincronize with itunes an 3G iphone that has the same name as the new 4S

    I've just boght a new 4s iphone to substitute my old 3G so when asked by itunes I didn't change the name of the new iphone. Now I have two I phones with the same name and the old one is not able to sinchronize with I tunes any more. It's not even able to restore it self so I could change its name to use it under a different Iphone, does any one have any idea of what can I do to reutlize it,. I'd much appreciate your advise, thank you,
    León Nik

    It's easy to rename each unit.  When you connect your iPad and it syncs, the unit will appear on the left of the iTUnes screens just click on the unit there and you can rename it.  You should do this immediately so you can see which unit was backed up by it's name. You can sync as many decices as you want in one iTunes library and you can even share Apps as long as you're going to sync both from teh same iTunes account.  My household has 2 iPad 2s and we share our apps, and we also share downloaded books, magazines, music, etc.......

  • I tried to make another account on my school Macbook Pro, made the Admin, account with the same name as the one I was using, deleted it and then all my desktop data is gone.

    So, the problem is,
    I used these school Macs right? They're school handed and stuff. Then one day I decided I want admin so I do this thing where I "reset" everything on the Macbook using this Video (at the bottom) http://www.wikihow.com/Reset-a-Lost-Admin-Password-on-Mac-OS-X
    Then I do it, it takes me to the new User. That's not what I want so I shut down, then made an account with the same name as my current account (let's call it Y). Then I delete Y on purpose. I deleted it because I didn't want my school to know I had this account. Realise I wanted it again so I made an account, let's call it X then when I have X I deleted Y. Then I realised my AirDrop name said X so then I made a new account, this time let's call it Z, with Z I delete X and then I deleted Z because I don't want my school to know I have Z but then Z is also the same name as my main/current account. Somehow or something I delete my current account leaving me with Z. Now I can see my account and stuff but don't know how to restore it.
    Picture will be provides later.
    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME. I HAVE SCHOOL TOMORROW AND I DON'T WANT MY PARENTS TO FIND OUT.

    It is a bad idea to hack computer passwords when you don't own the computer
    Good luck with the school and the parents.

  • How do you force instances with the same name on the same layer to update?

    Maybe someone can tell me why flash doesn’t redraw
    components’ x,y positions if they have the same instance name
    and are on adjacent frames? (movieclips work fine, just not
    components) If I have a button on frame 1 and a button on frame 2
    both with the same instance name but different locations on the
    stage, frame 2’s button doesn’t show up in the position
    I placed it, it stays at the position of frame 1 but still has the
    properties of frame 2’s button. The label changes and
    everything. If I stick a button on a frame in between and give it a
    different instance name there is no problem. I thought it might be
    the style manager bug
    http://www.gskinner.com/blog/archives/2007/12/cs3_component_b.html
    but it didn’t seem to affect. This happens for textareas too
    and probably all components although I haven’t tried them.
    I’ve tried using drawNow() and validateNow() with no luck
    either
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/creating_as3_components_pt3_05.html
    Thank you!
    // put this on frame 1 along with a button on the stage with
    instance name: b
    function doit(event) {
    if (currentFrame == 1)
    gotoAndStop(2);
    else
    gotoAndStop(1);
    b.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, doit);
    stop();
    // put another button on frame 2 along with this code and
    also make it’s instance name: b but move it so it’s not
    in the same x,y coordinates as the button on frame 1
    stop();
    Something possibly related. I have a movieclip on a layer,
    one instance with name “a” on frame 1 and one instance
    with name “a” on frame 2 and it has event listeners
    inside it that update something on the movieclip. Unless I put the
    movieclips on separate layers the event listeners won’t reset
    each frame. (example: a button with a tooltip onmouseover that you
    want to change the text of from frame 1 to frame 2) You’d
    think if they were on separate keyframes at least but no, they need
    to be on separate layers too.
    I want the movieclip to update each frame. Any ideas?

    instances (whether components or not) with the same name may
    or may not be the same instance. it depends upon how they were
    created.
    for example, if you create an instance on frame 1 of your
    main timeline, give it an instance name and then create a keyframe
    on frame 2, the two instances will be the same.
    but if you create an instance on frame 1 of your main
    timeline, give it an instance name and then create a blank keyframe
    on frame2 and create another, what you think is a duplicate,
    instance and give it the same name, it will be a different
    instance.

  • How do I make Applescript to compress 2 filez with the same name?

    Hello guys and thank you for reading this!
    I don't know a lot about programming, but i believe applescript can save my life. What I need is.
    Detecting 2 files with the same name, but differnt extension. (song 1.jpg, song 1.mp3)
    Compressing those 2 files into a single .zip (In the end I would have song 1.jpg, song 1.mp3 and song 1.zip
    And that's it! I know its pretty simple, and I've seen the "Create Archive" in automator, but I don't really know how to tell him which files to Compress.
    Thanks again!

    Hi,
    Try this script :
    set sourceFolder to choose folder
    tell application "System Events"
          {name, name extension} of (files of sourceFolder whose name extension is not "zip")
          my compress2FilesSameName(the result, sourceFolder as string)
          repeat with i in (get folders of sourceFolder) --check in subfolders
                {name, name extension} of (files of i whose name extension is not "zip")
                my compress2FilesSameName(the result, path of i)
          end repeat
    end tell
    on compress2FilesSameName(tList, tFolder)
          set tnames to item 1 of tList
          set tExtensions to item 2 of tList
          set tc to count tnames
          set j to 1
          repeat while j < tc
                tell (item j of tExtensions) to if it is not missing value or it is not "" then
                      set n1 to (count) + 2
                else
                      set n1 to 1
                end if
                tell (item (j + 1) of tExtensions) to if it is not missing value or it is not "" then
                      set n2 to (count) + 2
                else
                      set n2 to 1
                end if
                set name1 to item j of tnames
                set name2 to item (j + 1) of tnames
                if (text 1 thru -n1 of name1) = (text 1 thru -n2 of name2) then -- same name
                      set tFile1 to quoted form of POSIX path of (tFolder & name1)
                      set tFile2 to quoted form of POSIX path of (tFolder & name2)
                      set zipFile to quoted form of POSIX path of (tFolder & (text 1 thru -n1 of name1) & ".zip")
                      do shell script "/usr/bin/zip -j  " & zipFile & " " & tFile1 & " " & tFile2
                      set j to j + 2
                else
                      set j to j + 1
                end if
          end repeat
    end compress2FilesSameName
    if an archive already exists with the same name (in the parent folder of the files to compress) , the ZIP command overwrite this ".zip" file.
    Example  with "song 1.jpg", "song 1.mp3" and "song 1.zip" :
    If "song 1.zip" doesn't exist, the ZIP command create the "song 1.zip" file.
    If "song 1.zip" exist, the ZIP command overwrite the "song 1.zip" file (it will not create a new archive).

  • HT1473 Often times when I copy a CD into my library it breaks the CD into more than one Album, all with the same name but with only a few of the songs on each. This happens whenever the CD has music with more than one artists...like maybe duets.

    Often times when I copy a CD into my library it will break my CD into multiple albums in my library, each with only a few songs.
    Usually this is because there might be songs where the artists has other artists in the song.
    How can I compile all of the different albums (all with the same name by the way) back into one as was the original disc?

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • How to create reports servers with the same name in two nodes in Reports

    Greetings
    We are migrating Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4) to a better hardware infrastructure with high availability. We want to provide 2 new Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4) in High availability and we want to avoid modify the existing forms and reports code, but the code is looking for a specific reports server name when calling reports, but I couldn't create the same reports server name in the both oas machines, I could create the reports server in only one node. I want to create a reports server with the same name in both nodes but it is not possible. I know that there is a procedure to do that in 10.1,2 (Note 437228.1, How to Create Two Reports Servers With the Same Name in the Same Subnet) but I couldn't find the equivalent procedure in 9.0.4.
    Anybody kwows how to create a reports server with the same name in two nodes using 10g (9.0.4)
    Thanks

    Hello.
    I applied the patch 4092150 on my oas 9.0.4.2 and I modified my rwnetwork.conf file changing the port to 14022 by following the note "How to Create Two Reports Servers With the Same Name in the Same Subnet? [ID 437228.1]" but I am facing the same error rep-56040 "server already exists in the network".

  • How can I add the controller name in the subject of Alarm emails? PI2.1

    How can I add the controller name in the Alarm emails in PI2.1?  This would make it much easier to scan the mailbox and see what devices are affected.

    Thanx for your reply. No, although helpful, that's not what I meant. In outlook, the first line of the header contains the full username follow by a horizontal line. Under that, the default headers like To:, From:, Subject: etc follow.
    I need that firstline printed so we know instantly from which user the email was printed (the To: field often is the same name of the sender of the mail, therefor you won't know WHO printed it...).

  • I notice that in the new update to Firefox if I have two bookmark folders with the same name Firefox will end up deleting one of them.

    Both of these problems with the bookmarks started occurring after I installed the latest update to Firefox.
    I frequently have bookmark folders of the same name under the older version of Firefox and it has never been a problem before. It is now, and I notice that after I've created two folders with the same name Firefox will end up deleting one of the folders, almost always the older of the two folders (the one created first, chronologically).
    I have also noticed that with the new update Firefox will occasionally fail to open all bookmarks in Tabs if I've asked it to do so. I can simply close Firefox and reopen the program and it will work again, but I don't know why this bug is occuring in the first place.

    You are using two IP address ranges.. which results in the printer being cut off from the other network..
    Why do you have two networks?? It is always better in home situations to run one network.
    If you have work setup with an enterprise level router you can setup routes between the two networks.. this is not possible on domestic level apple routers.

  • I'm running the same version of Firefox on one computer in Windows 7 and on another computer in Windows XP. How can I make them look the same? Bookmarks is a button on the right in W7 and a tab at the top left in XP.

    I am already running Sync for bookmarks, but I don't understand how to make Firefox have the same format at the top of the screen. I don't want to Sync tabs, so I haven't tried that option.

    There is no bookmarks tab, expect you are referring to the bookmarks menu on the menu bar ("File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help") on your XP system.
    Once your restore your menus on you Window 7 system, you can get rid of the bookmarks button. After going through the 10 steps below your toolbars on your Windows 7 system will be more usable again and like your XP system, none of which has anything to do with Sync.
    You can make '''Firefox 6.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].
