Panning capability in Captivate - grey out rest of screen to focus

Hi all,
I'm using Adobe Captivate 4 as part of the TCS2 suite.  I want to use the panning feature... but with a bit more "jazz"... i.e. pan somewhere on the screen to what I'm doing and then zoom in on what my mouse is doing while the rest of the screen sort of grays out... then continue with the demo...(hope that made sense...) Anyway- the pan feature doesn't do it alone and the zoom feature seems to make things more fuzzy than zoomed... any suggestions?
Thanks,
Adriana Harper

Hi there
The shading bit can probably be achieved using a Highlight Box object.
For the zoom, indeed it will pixellate on you and become fuzzy. If you can, take a screen capture of the zoomed area where it looks as you like. Then substitute the image for the zoom.
Cheers... Rick

  • AVCHD Files "Greyed Out" In Import Screen

    Hello-
    I am a new user to FCPX, and I am having a bit of trouble when trying to import my AVCHD file to FCPX. I am running FCPX 10.1.2 on a MacBook Pro OSX v. 10.9.4 with an Intel Core i5 2.4GHz processor, Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB and I am trying to import an AVCHD file from my Panasonic AG-AC90PJ. My file currently resides on a SanDisc Ultra 30MB 64GB SDXC card. However, when I try to import the AVCHD file, it appears "greyed out" in the import window (see below)
    I've tried importing it directly to my HD from the SD Card, with the same result when trying to import into FCP. Also, I've tried connecting my camera directly with the SD card inserted via USB 2.0, with yet again the same result. Does anyone have some experience with how to successfully download this file?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    meant as a workaround to get your precious videos into FCPX:
    //work with a copy of your card!//
    in Finder, open that Private Folder, right-click on that AVCHD file, choose 'Open package', next level, Open Package of 'BDMV', and finally in in the 'Stream' folder you'll find your .mts files. You can drag them out of that location (again: work with a copy of your card!) ... FCPX should be able to import those 'naked' mts as files ..
    back to your original problem:
    in Finder, select your card, cmd-i ... what does it tell how the card is formatted? ....

  • HT204053 I am trying to set up my icloud account. It is telling me my account is not verified to check my email for verification. It is telling me to check my email at my Apple account? Everything is greyed out on the screen. Is it safe to delete this acc

    Hi.I am having difficulty setting up my icloud account on my iphone4. It's telling me Account not verified and to check my email at my apple account.The screen is greyed out and i cannot switch on any of the apps.Also icloud backup is off.  Is it safe to delete this account? will it erase everything on my phone??

    Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account.  Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

  • External hard drive greyed out mavericks

    Since upgrading to Mavericks me key working external hard drive has become unreadable. All the data looks like it is there, and the list of folders appear in the finder window, but they are greyed out. (see attached screen grab)
    I have tried all my other drives and they are working normally. 
    I tried this drive with my wifes Mountain lion computer and it worked fine.
    The same drive is paritioned with a TM backup as the other part and that works fine.
    Any advice? Its probably 1 click somewhere, but haven't been able to find it. I played with the permissions in the info window, but made no differnence.
    I really need access to this, so please help.
    Thanks

    I managed to sort it out, but cant really remember/dont really know how I did it. It was super simple and 1 click of a button. I was just trying loads of stuff to see if I could find it and suddenly it was working.
    I was deifnitely from the finder window. Try the buttons along the top, including change the arrnage by. Try the tags button and change the tags to none if you can. Finally try in the top menu "view" and click around in that.
    Sorry that this is such a terrible reply, but as I said it just happened for me without really knowing what I was doing. So dont worry, all the data is still there.... just click lots of buttons!

  • Safari greyed out non responsive

    Hi,
    Suddenly, Safari does not work.
    When I try to open Safari, it appears greyed out and the screen does not respond to taps at all.
    Some other apps are the same.
    I can use email, and Google works.
    Please advise how to recover from this problem.
    Many thanks
    Roystontin

    I've seen this type of thing lots since ios4. I don't recall seeing it before. When safari is waiting for a website everything goes grey. I'm pretty sure before it was only the little circle appearing. Anyway I've had some sites not respond for a while and when that happens safari freezes. I've had no cure but it has always come back within a few minutes when the website has responded fully. Not sure if you are seeing the same thing.

  • Some options are greyed out in Captivate 8.0.1 and my bullets do not work?

    Hi, I am using Captivate 8.0.1 and am having trouble with 2 things:
    1. The bullets and indents that I have formated for my responsive project appear very messed up and not as I have formatted when I view my project in Edge Inspect?
    2. Some options in the TOC are greyed out (that I really need for my project). These option are to upload an icon and to align the position of the TOC (It wont let me align to the side of my project as the only option available is for 'overlay'.
    Any ideas on how to fix these problems would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi there
    Captivate 8 introduced the first "Responsive" type of project. And in these types of projects, certain things simply won't work in the output. Henceforth, their options will often be disabled (or "grayed out"). The TOC appears to be one such item. The only option is to use an overlay TOC. I would suspect that this is because of "responsive design". Since the output will be adapting to differing screen sizes, I'm guessing that adding an additional 250 or so pixels for a TOC could prove troublesome and would likely throw off all the other design elements.
    Where exactly are you finding you are not capable of uploading an icon? I see that I'm able to upload icons that represent the collapse and expand gizmos, but you may be in a different spot.

  • ITunes 11 has moved most of my audiobooks to music, and greyed out the "audiobook" option in the info pane.  WHY?!?!?

    Now I have a music library filled with audiobook content and music content all mixed up, playing EVERYTHING when I'm on shuffle because iTuness 11 has now also reset the previously-audiobook-now-music content not to be skipped in shuffle, and I can't fix it because the option is greyed out.  Can anybody help me? 

    Just an update, following last nights USB sync all music shows as In the library on my iPhone, however only the same 500 or so songs are playable, the rest go from appearing to be in the library to going into the cloud and starting to download when manually selected. If on shuffle the music skips over them. The iPhone  memory usage shows only about 10gb used most of which is for the iOS/apps, so once again my music library is not on my iPhone. Apple have managed to take a great product and turn it into a steaming pile of turd.

  • Since updating to Yosemite and CS6 2 of my print options are greyed out on my epson R2880 print pane?

    My colour and colour settings options are 'greyed out' on my  Epson printer pane since updating to Yosemite and CS6,this happened before after running a software update on the printer driver! The driver version at that time was 6.62 and now it has updated to version 9.00....could this be the problem??

    That's strange ... did you try restarting before printer install? You also may need to delete the printer itself (System Preferences > Printers & Scanners) and add it again , in order to access the proper drivers (?)
    Can you show screen shot(s) of your incomplete print dialog?

  • Playbar options are greyed out on skin editor Captivate 6

    Hello and welcome to the forum,
    Are you new to Captivate? Did you ever create an advanced action? I have several tutorials on my blog, and some articles as well:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/858/cpsid_85847.html has a video tutorial that shows how to create a conditional advanced action. Even though it is created for CP5, nothing has changed in CP6 (except perhaps the names of some system variables)
    http://blog.lilybiri.com/system-variables-in-captivate-6
    You do not need 3 variables at all, which was the reason why I asked my 'new' question. Are you using real pretest question slides or normal question slides or custom question slides?
    If you use Pretest question slides, the score will be stored in cpQuizInfoPretestPointsscored and the percentage in  cpQuizInfoPretestScorePercentage
    If you use normal question slides, the score will be stored in cpQuizInfoPointsscored and the percentage in  cpInfoPercentage
    If you use custom question slides, you'll have user variables in which you calculate both score and percentage
    If the numbers you are mentioning are percentages you'll create one conditional action with 3 decisions (here example for normal question slides):
    First decision: IF cpInfoPercentage is greater or equal to 70
                                 Jump to slide CHP3_1
    Second decision:  IF cpInfoPercentage is less than 70   AND
                                   cpInfoPercentage is greater or equal to 50
                                       Jump to slide CP2_1
    Third decision: IF cpInfoPercentage is less than 50
                               Jump to slide CHP1_1
    The slide labels CHPx_1 are for the first slides of each chapter.

  • After upgrading to IOS 5.1.1 the Wi-Fi selection in settings greyed out and now says No Wi-Fi.  Have tried restting and restoring both from te phone and from Itunes but this does not solve the problem.

    I recently upgraded my Iphone 4s to 5.1.1 and founf the Wi-Fi button in settings greyed out saying No Wi-Fi.  I have tried Reset network Settings, Rest All Settings and restore in Itunes but to no avail.  I understand this is a comon occurence but I cant find a solution to it.  Can anybody help?

    See this tip --> http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
    If this doesn't resolve it you most likely have a hardware failure. Fortunately, your phone is in warranty, so if you take it to an Apple store they will replace it.

  • I am trying to export all of the separate audio files from Logic Pro X so that I can transfer them into pro Pro Tools, however it won't let me do it without the panning information. The option to untick panning is greyed out. How can I do it?

    I have exported the separate audio files, but it contains the panning information. When the export pop up window opens, the export with panning information box is ticked, but it is greyed out so it won't let me unselect it. How do I fix this problem?

    A brief and probably non-helpful answer: I know of no way to eliminate your large amount of duplicates other than by repetitive, tedious manual effort.
    *There has got to be a simpler way.*
    I hope you're right, but I don't think there is a simpler way.
    BACKUP:  It also appears that the only way I can back up the catalog is to shut down LR.  Really?!
    Yes, really

  • Trying to publish swf in captivate 5.5. The 'Export to HTML' is greyed out. Why greyed out?

    I'm having to take extra steps to open on internet explorer. It does have a quizz with eLearning Output 'Scorm 1.2'.  Want it to automatically open on IE. 

    Hi there,
    In Captivate 5.5 if you have published scorm package, then 'export to html' is greyed out because it by default publishes .htm and .swf in the published folder.
    if it is not a scorm package, then you have a choice to only export the .swf.
    Most scorm compliant LMSs accept published zipped output.
    Thanks.

  • TS3988 The correct information in the email address, Full name and Incoming mail server panes are greyed out, and I can get no further in bring my iCloud a/c online. Any ideas? Thanks.

    I've just updated and installed Mountain Lion. I've clicked for iCloud for Mail. The correct information in the email address, Full name and Incoming mail server panes are greyed out, and I can get no further in bring my iCloud a/c online. Any ideas? Thanks.

    They are grayed out because they are automatically set up whey you check Mail in System Preferences.  If you didn't do that, go back and do so and your iCloud email account will be set up automatically.
