No behaviors work

Just trying to get any behaviors to work. Even created a new
page, set some text, and added "open browser window" as a behavior,
and nothing happens, no rollover hand nothing. Im kind of new to
Dreamweaver so not sure if im missing something obvious?? Please
help!! Here is the link to the test page.
http://imaginethat-design.com/testpage.html
The word "test" should open up a image in another window.
Attached is the code

It works fine. You have applied the behavior to the BODY tag,
with an onload
event -
<body
onload="MM_openBrWindow('images/contactus.gif','','width=33,height=33')">
Test
</body>
not to the word "Test". For that word to trigger anything,
you would first
need to make it a link, e.g.,
<body>
<a href="#"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('images/contactus.gif','','width=33,height=33')">Test</a>
</body>
So - open the page in DW, click in the design view, click to
select <body>
on the Quick Tag Selector bar (at the bottom of the document
window), and
use the behaviors panel to REMOVE the behavior you have
applied to it.
Then, select the whole word "Test". In the Property
inspector, enter the
octothorpe (#) in the Link field and press Enter key. Then,
with the word
"Test" still selected, apply your behavior again. That should
do it.

Why are link behaviors working in my render but not my export?

When I export my video, the link behaviors don't behave like they do when I preview the video in the player window. It's like the export feature doesn't even know they're there. What's going on?

Hi Ben, thanks for helping.
I set all of the Render settings as you said, both on the Preview Canvas as well on the Export settings.
My export is still different than my preview. Here are the problems (all link behaviors):
"Link Slit Scan"
Source Parameter: Filters.Insect Eye.Refraction
Apply To: Filters.Slit Scan.Glow
Notes: In the preview, the slit scan is glowing bright white. In the export, it's completely dark.
"Link Halftone"
Source Parameter: Filters.Insect Eye.Refraction
Apply To: Filters.Halftone.Mix
Notes: In the preview, the halftone triggers along with the refraction. In the export, the halftone doesn't exist.
Extra Note: This is the same behavior that keeps changing the target to "Filters.Bad TV.Mix" when I close and reopen the project.
"Link Bad TV"
Source Parameter: Filters.Insect Eye.Refraction
Apply To: Filters.Bad TV.Waviness
Notes: In the preview, the waviness triggers smoothly along with the refraction (when the Bad TV mix is up). In the export, the waviness is jittering out of control.
By the way, Filters.Insect Eye.Refraction is controlled by an audio behavior, but the Refraction itself is working just fine.
I'll check out Ripple Training too. Thanks!

Behavior work differently with SimpleUniverse

I initially created an application using the SimpleUniverse utility. I add a behavior one of my transform groups so that an object would change orientation on a button click.
I then switched over to a regular Universe and constructed my own viewing branch. Now the behavior will NOT work although it did before.
Can anyone help me and let me know what I'm missing?
Thanks in advance.
Here is my buildViewBranch code: and below is the code for the Canvas3D
public BranchGroup buildViewBranch() {
          BranchGroup viewBranch = new BranchGroup();
          TransformGroup vpTrans = new TransformGroup();
          view = new View();
          ViewPlatform vipl = new ViewPlatform();
          PhysicalBody pb = new PhysicalBody();
          PhysicalEnvironment pe = new PhysicalEnvironment();
          //Attach elements of the view
          view.attachViewPlatform(vipl);
          view.setPhysicalBody(pb);
          view.setPhysicalEnvironment(pe);
          view.addCanvas3D(canv);
          vpTrans.addChild(vipl);
          view.setFieldOfView(field_of_view);// degrees for a distance of meters
          //This matrix places the camera on the +z axis looking towards the origin
          Matrix4f v_mat = new Matrix4f( 1f, 0,0,0f,
                                                  0,1f,0,0f,
                                                  0,0,1f,7f,
                                                  0,0,0,1f);
          Transform3D shiftV = new Transform3D();
          shiftV.set(v_mat);
          vpTrans.setTransform(shiftV);
          view.startView();
          view.startBehaviorScheduler();
          System.out.println("Behavior running: " + view.isBehaviorSchedulerRunning());
          viewBranch.addChild(vpTrans);
          return viewBranch;
Here is the Canv initiation that I use:
GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
          GraphicsDevice[] gs = ge.getScreenDevices();
          //Creates a graphics template to pole the monitor for the best configuration
     GraphicsConfigTemplate3D gct3d = new GraphicsConfigTemplate3D();
          //gct3d.setStereo(GraphicsConfigTemplate.PREFERRED);
          gct3d.setSceneAntialiasing(GraphicsConfigTemplate.UNNECESSARY);
          //The best graphic configuration is obtained for device 0 as this device is usually the
          //main monitor
          java.awt.GraphicsConfiguration config = gs[0].getBestConfiguration(gct3d);
     canv = new Canvas3D(config);

I now have a better idea of what's going wrong. When I run the function
view.isBehaviorSchedulerRunning()
I get false before and after I run the function
view.startBehaviorScheduler();
What do I do? I need help. I would greatly any suggestions.
What do I need to do to get the behavior scheduler working right?

Grow/Shrink Behavior Not Working

I created 5 separate DIVs/Images using the grow/shrink behavior. The behavior worked on the computer I initially created them on, when I got home, the behaviors are still setup, but don't work in either the LiveView, Preview in Browser or when the new files are uploaded to the server.
When I check the source code, the behavior is there as well.
http://www.typea-sports.com/index.html (the five images are supposed to grow from 25% of their size to 100% at different speeds.
I'm using version CS4.
Any ideas on why?
Thanks,
Peter

You need to upload the script file to the server:
<script src="SpryAssets/SpryEffects.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
That is in your code but not on the server.

Pause / Resume button combination not working when set to display for "rest of project"

Good day,
I have created a set of four objects on slide2 of my project
1. Smart Object rounded rectangle with text "(playing) - CLICK to Pause" [this is the graphic the user sees]
2. Smart Object rounded rectangle with text "(paused) - CLICK to Resume" [this is the graphic the user sees]
3. Smart Object rectangle, transparent, used as button, set to not display in project - btn_Resume
4. Smart Object rectangle, transparent, used as button - btn_Pause
A. Script assigned to btn_Pause hides btn_Pause and the "CLICK to Pause" graphic, shows the btn_Resume and "CLICK to Resume" graphic, and pauses the project by setting the system pause variable to 1
B. Script assigned to btn_Resume hides btn_Resume and the "CLICK to Resume" graphic, shows the btn_Pause and "CLICK to Pause" graphic, and resumes the project by setting the system resume variable to 1
C. All items are set to display from the beginning of slide2 for the "rest of project"
On slide 2, the buttons hide/show and pause/resume behaviors work correctly.
On slide 3, the correct initial button and graphic appears, and the click sound works when clicked, but no behaviors (show/hide/pause) occur until a good amount of time into the slide: you can click all you want for 20-30 seconds, but nothing works except the click sound. Eventually, the behavior will work.
On slides 4 and following, the correct initial button and graphic appears, and the click sound works when clicked, but no behaviors EVER work.
If the behaviors NEVER, EVER worked, I would keep looking for what I did not have set correctly, but the correct working on the slide where they are set, delayed behavior on the next, and no behavior on the remainder of slides following has me stumped.
Captivate version 6.0.1.240
Windows 7 OS
I hope I'm missing something obvious here, and I'm more than willing to face-palm if you tell me . Otherwise, I have not been able to find any setting that makes any difference. I would REALLY rather not duplicate the buttons and scripts on every page of the project. Given the blog posts I have seen saying this method should work just fine, I'm hoping there is a side quirk somewhere that I'm missing.
Thanks for any help you can give.

Without clouding with too much explanation, this technique arose out of a need to deal with (in a different project) objects that were grouped, and wanting to deal with the groups in as simple a way as possible, allow for easy swapping of group assets, and having a few buttons do multiple things. The idea of being able to have multiple interactive buttons stacked on top of each other while appearing for the rest of the project led to trying this simple construct before trying something more complex.
You are correct, that there is a simpler solution, which we ended up using because we were not able to get two interactive buttons stacked on top of each other while displayed for the rest of the project to work properly (although that is SUPPOSED to work, as far as I understand).
Here's what we ended up doing:
A) Two smartshapes used as messaging graphics
B) A single (one) interactive smartshape used as a button
C) A conditional action to pause/resume and show/hide the appropriate messaging graphics
D) All three objects (A&B) stacked, B on top.
E) All objects set to always appear on top, and to display for rest of project.
Our hypothesis, then, is that you are not able to stack interactive objects on top of each other and then display for the rest of the project.
If anyone has evidence to the contrary, we would, gladly, take a look.
Thanks for your interest Lilybiri, and for your input.
Best regards,
Hank

Sudden problems with image behaviors, javascript on Yahoo servers

I have been posting my website with Yahoo Small Business for 10 years and have never had a server-side issue (to my knowledge). Until now.
It should first be pointed out that all my sites are basic HTML, constructed using Dreamweaver 8 on an old Sawtooth PowerMac that runs OS X.3.8. I am behind the times and know it.
I have a 2011 iMAC, but can't afford to upgrade my imaging software. If adobe cared anything about aspiring designers, they would come down to earth with the pricing (why should current students, educators and private business be given such a massive advantage in pricing?). Sorry, I'm just being truthful. I do not use style sheets (though it would be helpful to learn since the web is run by them now).
Recently, I completely redesigned my personal website. When I tested it on my old mac, everything functioned as desired. When tested on my new mac, everything functioned as desired. When viewed online after uploading to the server, the page appears to load in full, but none of the image behaviors work. Correction, the "mailto:" link works, but it was assigned in the property inspector rather than the behaviors inspector. So I have no rollovers and no operative links beyond email.
I sent the site files to a friend so he could check the site. He posted it to the server he uses and all the functions on the page work correctly. This is where I came to suspect that the problem is with the Yahoo servers and not my coding.
Here is the link to the page that does not work correctly:
http://www.boughnermultimedia.com
Here is the link to the page that does work correctly:
http://www.ericsearsandeyes.com/fboughner
In Safari, I checked the error console and the following message appears for all java script behaviors:
ReferenceError: Can't find variable:
If someone here could check my source code and let me know where Yahoo is having problems with my code, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Your code is corrupted. If you view source in browser, you'll see your code is compressed into one long line. This will surely cause JavaScripts to fail.
Your friend's version works because the code is not compressed.

Delaying behaviors

Hi there,
I'm creating an image gallery & I'm trying to do the
following, can anyone shed some light for me?
What I am trying to do is this:
thumbnail click - fades out old image, new image loads, new
image fades in
I have the behaviors working fine with onclick , its just
that they all happen at once - what is the easiest way of delaying
the actions so that they play in order?
eg,
mouse click:
Fade out (1000ms)
Load image (1000ms pause before loading)
Fade in (1000ms long with a 1050ms pause before starting)
An extra issue here is that I'm using imageswaps in the menu
& don't want to disturb the behavior in the main
function....I've played around with setTime but I can't seem to get
anything to work with it - Java is not my strong point!
Any pointers would be great - I'm sure that there must be an
easy way to do this!
Thanks

*bump* anyone?

Acrobat's "Attach to Email" fails due to tooltip behavior???

OK, let me start out by acknowledging that I’m claiming
my car won’t start because the bathroom light is on …
but here goes:
I’ve got a menu of PDF’s with icons next to each
to open, print, email, or select (for multi-print/email) All of the
icons have the tooltip behavior, the only modification being a
slight increase in the offset of the tooltip. The tooltips all work
fine, the icons all work fine, everything opens, prints, or
attaches to emails (via a MAPI behavior I’ve written) as
expected … except … if you open a PDF document and
select “Attach to Email” from Acro Reader’s file
menu, a MAPI email form pops up but hitting send does nothing. Once
a particular instance of the reader has been corrupted it can no
longer email any PDF, even those opened directly by the OS,
however, my own MAPI behavior remains functional and I can still
email PDFs directly from the menu … so the corruption appears
to be in the reader, not the email client.
Before you think I’m crazy, I tried a simple test: 2
buttons, one with just the file open behavior, the other with file
open + tooltip. The file open only behavior works fine all day
long, the file open + tooltip behavior will eventually cause
problems with the reader’s email capability … maybe not
the first time, but after 5 or 6 tries the problem will eventually
surface. Once the problem has surfaced, closing the offending
document but leaving the instance of the reader open will cause all
subsequent attempts to email to fail when opening the PDF from
either button. Closing the reader will restore email if the PDF is
opened from the non-tooltip button and we’re back to where we
started.
We have demonstrated the problem with both Acro Reader 8, and
Acro 7 Pro on XP Pro. Anyone know what might be happening?

I added these additional strings via Reg Editor. Similar to a previous posting and it now works fine.

Please change text highlight behavior

The highlight behavior was changed from InDesign CS6 to InDesign CC wherein it previously "inverted" the text and background. So if the text was black on white, it became white on black. Further, what was behind the text was treated the same way. So if there was black text on top of a blue image, the text became white while the image became orange.
This behavior worked and accounted for ANY combination of text and background.
The new behavior is that the text is highlighted using your operating systems highlight color. The default color for OS X is a light blue.
Thus if you have light grey or light blue text, it disappears into the highlight block. Even white text, which is very common in magazine and brochure design, becomes extremely hard to read.
But the larger problem is created when working on a background. Whereas the background was previously inverted, it is now entirely covered. You can't see it anymore.
I constantly have to do designs based on previous versions/designs. In some cases, a design was created in illustrator or photoshop and I have to recreate it in InDesign. This used to be pretty simple. I'd pull the old design in as a placed object, set it's opacity to 50% and put it on a locked layer. Then I'd rebuild it in InDesign. But with the text highlight behavior, this becomes virtually impossible. As soon as you select the text that you need to adjust to match the background, the background itself becomes invisible—covered up by a light blue highlight.
I've included two images here to demonstrate the problem created by the new behavior.
So my feature request is simple: Revert the text highlight behavior.

I can't agreee more! We just updated all of our Production Macs to CC here and do much of the same work to client files when all we have is a reference PDF. We have to be able to re-set type to match exactly their previous designs and not being able to see that underlying PDF is a horrible drawback. There must be a way to make that highlight color transparent, even if it's a Preference to be changed.
I will say the only passable way I've found so far, and it's far from ideal, is to place the original PDF, make sure Transaprent Background is selected and put it on a Layer above the new text items. Some caveats are, if there's anything in that PDF that obscures the new text frames it can be problematic, and you have to Lock that PDF layer or selecting items can be infuriating as well. NOT a solution, just a workaround at best.

Default focus behavior in Swing

I have a JTabbedPane wherein every tab has a variety of fields, including buttons, text areas, text fields, tables, and so on. I wanted to tweak the default focus behavior such that the first text field or the first text area has the focus.
I used requestFocusInWindow() to set the focus on the first text field I get. This, however, was being overriden at a later stage (I am working on a vast code) and the first component inside a tab is getting the focus.
Is there any means to override the default focus behavior? I tried writing my own FocusTraversalPolicy but found that that is never used. How does the default focus behavior work? Does it set the focus on the first field it gets or what? And where can I find the code for the same?

I used requestFocusInWindow() to set the focus on the first text field I get. The requestFocusInWindow() method only works when the GUI is already visible. So I would suggest that you add a ChangeListener to the tabbed pane and add your code to set the focus every time the tab is changed.
For a slightly different approach the code in this posting will remember the last field for each tab that had focus and reset focus to that field when the tab is changed. The code is not completely off topic since it shows how to use a ChangeListener:

Behaviors Panel Missing columns FW-8

I'm running fireworks 8 on an intel Macbook, OS 10.4. When I
open the behaviors panel, I get a 'onMouseOver" listing but nothing
else. Cannot seem to highlight an event and there are no actions or
events headings in the panel. As say, a rollover, the behavior
works in preview, (and in dreaweaver), but if I want to use a click
event, instead of a rollover, I cannot do it. (This bieng for a
swap image action). Any idea of what is going on. At this point,
i'm adding all my behaviors in Dreamweaver...

Open New Browser Window Behavior

I have set a behavior in Dreamweaver CS3 to open a new
browser window to a set size and to only show scroll bars if
needed. I have left all other attributes unchecked. This works fine
in all browsers including IE6 but IE7 ignores all my settings and
just opens a normal full size browser window showing scroll bars,
address bar, menus etc. Can anyone tell me how to make IE7 open a
new browser window to my settings using the behaviors in
Dreamweaver CS3?
Thanks.
Russ.

I cannot reproduce this in IE7. Your OBW behavior works just
the way you
want for me. In your code, make sure that this is all on one

Promoted Links Launch Behavior: Dialog

When using the Promoted Links app, and using the Dialog launch behavior, every link I have tried returns an error.
This does not happen with the other two launch behaviors, 'In page navigation and New tab'.
I have tried opening several links that I know are good, including SharePoint pages. All work in every launch behavior except, 'Dialog'.
Any idea why this is happening?

Hi,
Based on your description, I have done a test and I can ’t reproduce your issue.
I created a Promoted Links list, when I added items, every launch behavior worked fine.
Let’s verify the following:
Whether the issue exists in the other sites of the same site collections.
Whether the issue exists in the other sites of the different site collections.
Whether the issue exists in the other sites of the different web applications.
Done a test , compare the results.
Change a user with full control and done a test, compare the results.
Besides, check the SharePoint ULS log located at : C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS to get a detailed error description.
Take a look at the similar post：

Fireworks 8 Behaviors Panel Broken

I am using Fireworks 8 on Mac G4 with OS 10.3.9
My Behaviors panels is not displaying the Events or Behaviors
columns and I am unable to edit an event that triggers the
behavior.
I noticed that on 5/27/07 someone posted the identical
problem under "Behaviors Panel Missing columns FW-8".
Unfortunately, there was no response then to this problem.
He wrote:

Thank you Linda for your quick reply
You discussed Fireworks on a Windows PC. I run Fireworks at
home on an Apple desktop and an Apple laptop. Only the desktop
(Apple G4) has had this issue for about two weeks now (it was fine
for several years), the laptop's Fireworks is working well.
At school, I teach Fireworks on Windows PCs and am not having
this issue there on the PC's either.
Your comment about some internal Fireworks interface resource
causing it sounds logical. There is nothing named "SMALLE" or
"SMALLE.FON" on any of my hard drives :-( I have not purposefully
disabled any of my fonts lately.
As a test, I fired up Fireworks MX 2004 on the problem
desktop and the Behaviors panel was functioning normally in that
version of the program.
So, I am going to try reinstalling Fireworks 8 in the hopes
that some missing/damaged resource is replaced with a new one that
is working correctly.
Thank you for your valuable time and assistance.

The URL link contains the correct countries_id (i.e. 225 for
USA). I haven't been able to get the countries or the selected
country to appear in the update behavior page which otherwise
works.
I have used a hidden field to contain the venue_id and
another hidden field to contain the countries_id.
Anyone have a reference to screen shots as to how to make
this work?

Hi Sk2014,
Thanks and sorry for the late reply. I gone through those links and one of them talks about using
SelectedValue='<%# Bind("DivisionCode") %>', but this property does not exist in dropdownlist.
A per the second link, I tried to use the prerender event as follows
protected void ListViewPrerender(object sender, EventArgs e)
if (this.ListViewAssgn.EditIndex != -1)
DropDownList ddl = this.ListViewAssgn.Items[this.ListViewAssgn.EditIndex].FindControl("ddlEPriority") as DropDownList;
Here the ddl variable was showing the incorrect selected value.For e.x. if before I clicked edit, if Priority was displayed as Low, then after I click edit, the ddl variable above become High.
I have also tried the ItemDataBound as below, but there too the dropdown list variable was null
protected void ListViewItemDataBound(object sender, ListViewItemEventArgs e)
try
if (e.Item.ItemType == ListViewItemType.DataItem)
DropDownList ddlListPriority = (DropDownList)e.Item.FindControl("ddlEPriority");
catch (Exception ex)
throw ex;
I feel that I could be doing something silly somewhere but I am not able to identifiy.
All I want to do, is keep the selected value in the dropdown list unchanged when I click on Edit.Pls help.

No behaviors work
