Placing flash over image

Hi, I'm building a website based around 1 image.
What I want to do is place a flash audio player, slim one,
OVER the image, in any place that I choose.
What do I do to select the layer arrangement? Because it only
lets me have it above or below the image.
Thanks for your help
Alex

Pretty much the same answer as in your form over image
post... but without the form scripting part....
But why are you building a site around an image. You need
some images and mostly content to build your site around. Beware of
over sized pages with images and flash all piled on you could put
some people off with dial-up or satellite connections...

Lines over images and around text in Captivate SWF file

My project works & views fine in captivate and when published, it views fine on my mac - through flash player and browsers. But when I send a swf file to the client to view they see odd lines above and below images.
But they dont see the lines when they view the htm file within a browser - then it views fine.
The lines only appear when there's text over an image.
Screen shots attached.
My captivate project was created by importing a Powerpoint document, with images and text on each slide.
I've changed the optimisation / slide quality through prefrences and on each slide to the highest quality.
I've also un-selected the advanced slide compression.
Is there another thing I can try to iron out these lines?
Some of the images within Powerpoint are stretched, would this cause the lines?
Is it a flash player issue?
Or a zooming issue?
Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks Lilybiri,
I am a new user & just finding my way
I understand how to publish and how Captivate creates a zipped file with a SWF, HTML, JS and CSS files etc. (Im using Captivate 7).
How do you send Captivate projects to clients for review / approval before you supply them with the whole project zipped file?
So far I've been sending them the swf file to check. And have had troubles with them viewing the lines over images and around text. Even though I cant see the lines.
I need the client to see what I'm seeing - a project without any lines.

1) Drop Down Menu 2) Roll Over Images & 3)

Does anyone know away to make these things possible on iWeb (or if it is not even possible)
1)
I'd like to have a drop down menu so that my sites are not so cluttered.
Here is an example:
http://www.drsteinhealing.com/doctor/chiropractor/2L/Encino/homepage.htm
2)
I have seen rollover images in flash, but I hear that it is possible without flash and I think it would be great to have some pictures as such for the menu. I would think this would be possible because right now there is a rollover color change to words that are links if you want it to change colors... so:
a) is flash possible on iWeb
b) even if it is not: is there a way to have rollover images and
c) can there be roll over images that are also links?
Here is an example:
http://planetrobyn.com/ (the pictures go from black and white to color and then they are also the menu)
I'm learning so it would be great to see if these things are possible. Thank you.

See these menus.The menus are HTML and CSS only.
http://www.wyodor.net/Demo/iWebeend.html
http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/tmf/Duckmenu.html
The first menu has the menu hardcode in the published webpage.
Check the source to see how it's done.
The second menu has a textbox at the top of the page. A JavaScript in the HTML Snippet finds that textbox and place the menu in it.
This is pasted in the HTML Snippet :
<script src="../../../duckmenu/duckmenu.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
This JavaScript places the menu in the textbox :
http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/duckmenu/duckmenu.js
The menu at drsteinhealing is HTML/CSS only too. So if you like it, grab the code + stylesheet and use it.

File Path Visible When I Hover Over Images

Hi,
I converted a PowerPoint document to a PDF. The PowerPoint document includes images (GIF, JPEG). When I hover my cursor over the image in the PDF I created I can see the file path C:\User\User Name\Photo\File Name.JPG.
Is there a setting in the PDF that I can 'unselect' so I don't see the file path when I hover over images?
Thanks,

Flash video image problem with newest nVidia driver

I've got a very weird display error since the last update. Basically, whenever I play flash video and afterwards close the browser (chromium), any purely black surfaces will display the full flash player image. The effect is only visible in the "first" window of a xmonad tab, that means if I cycle the window positions it will be in a different window. The others are not affected. When I restart X, I can see the flash video image flashing up shortly on the black screen. Restarting X fixes the issue. I cannot take any screenshot of the problem because the error is NOT visible on the screenshot. Therefore I suspect that some frame buffer used for the flash player is not getting cleared properly after exiting the browser, but it's really little more than a wild guess.
As there are multiple components involved, I'm at a loss of where this might be coming from. I hope someone might be able to shed some light on this situation. Please post here if you have the same problem or have any idea why this happens!
My setup:
-nvidia 260.19.36-2
-flashplugin 10.2.152.27-1
-chromium 9.0.597.94-1
-xmonad 0.9.2-1
-xmonad-contrib 0.9.2-1

if you asking about a bug reported on arch linux bugtracker, then you are doing it the wrong way.
flash and nvidia are closed source, we can't do anything. A better place is to submit bugs to nvidia and adobe.
Now i see that nvidia 270.26 was released. Maybe you want to check that out:

Could work an animated flash bitmap image exported in html 5, in DPS ?

I'm new in DPS, just started for a couple of weeks and I need to use a image in an animation.
I created the animation in inDesign exported in .fla, used de toolkit js, load it in a container with web content overlay, and when I preview it with Adobe Content Viewer it doesn't work, it apears a blank screen. Neighter of animation from that stage won't work.
To be very precise any animation works fine, when I test the html in a browser, the problem appears only in the content viewer.
The animation is very simple: smal logo entering in the stage from the right, not very complex.
I tried in flash with other images in a test file and loaded in inDesign, and still don't work. Other vector animation works well, no problem. I saw that if I have an image in library in flash and export a simple animation with a vector ball, won't work in indesign preview, with content viewer.
My question is, Could work an animated flash bitmap image exported in html 5, in DPS ? If so, what should I need to do ?
Thank you in advance.

Two possible solutions I was considering:
1) In my index/first page, have all the swfs present (scaled to 1x1, behind something, or invisible) and have a preloader code on that first page... so all the content gets loaded before continuing onto the rest of the site. That would certainly work in making the site run quick... but would mean a relatively lengthy wait at the start. Luckily, unlike my current site, all the actual site content (aside from the header/nav interface) is HTML... so the bulk of the site's content is in the HTML pages, not as part of the Flash header... so it probably wouldn't be too horrific a wait. However, it would be loading EIGHT of these swfs, since there are eight pages... so then maybe it would be....
2) Have an swf that consists of just the 'draw up' of the interface, and it's idle state... then when each button is pressed, load a new swf to replace the main one, which has the specific page's animated title sequence, and ends with the code to load the html page. So, each separate HTML page would have embedded into it only the main swf, and the title animation swf would be swapped in when a nav button is pressed. Main issue here is each button press would envoke a preloader sequence (kind of tedious)... and unfortunately all the 'main interface' elements loaded in with the main swf would have to be loaded in again at the start of each animated title swf (although none of the draw up... just the loading of the interface and buttons). For highspeed users, it should be okay, I guess....
Thoughts or better ideas?

Over image not working in Nav Bar

I'm sorry to tell you that the first thing you need to do is
to get rid of
the method you have used. It's quite antique, and was
designed for framed
pages. It adds quite a bit of additional code (some of which
is invalid) to
your page than would the alternative of using just ordinary
image swaps for
your menu.
So, just create your menu from the up images in each row, and
use DW's Swap
image behavior on each.
And put some duct tape over this NavBar option so that you
don't use it
again!

Bandwith Problem with Flashes over Terminal Server

I get huge problems with viewing flash on Citrix Terminal
Server. Everytime a user opens up a website with Flashes in it, it
consumes the rest off the bandwith. This slows down all other user
on the site. This happens over RDP and ICA Connection. Microsoft
dont want to have a solution for this problem. they know it but...
. The same ist for Citrix. I hope that Adobe can give me an
acceptable solution. What can i do, to tune up Flashes over the
Terminal Server?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Setting the order of a roll over image in a quiz

Hi,
I'm using captivate 4 and having issues in setting a quiz for my students.
I want to have an icon to roll-over so the students can access information relating to the question, eg, diagrams, tables, graphs etc.
I have done all this yet when the roll over image appears its order is set behind the question and answers, I need it in front. when trying to change the order, eg bring to front, all the options are grayed out and not available. Is there a way to fix this as I know I cannot use a slidelet in a question slide.
I have also tried to re-order the question and answer text, but is is also grayed out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Cheers
Andrew

Hello,
You cannot insert interactive objects on any default question slide from pool or not. You will have to change the action to be executed on Success/Failure. There it is possible to jump to a slide.
Beware: you can never jump to a slide that is outside of the quiz 'scope'. This scope starts with the slide where you have the first scoreable object, which can be a question slide but also a button/click box/TEB with a score. The scope typically ends with the score slide. So be sure that the slide you want to jump to are in that scope. Eventually you can add a scoreable object (with a low score perhaps of 1pt) like a button or click box to the first slide of your project. If you keep the score slide as the last slide you will not have to worry anymore about the scope.
Hope this makes sense,
Lilybiri

Insert shape over image in table cell

Want to use circles, ovals, lines with arrows to point to some part (text or image) of a cell in a table.
Need to emphasize certain areas of graphics in a document used as a step by step type document.
If I add the shape outside the table and then try to drag/drop on to the image in the cell, the entire cell jumps to a new empty cell.
Can nod get image to appear over the image in the table cell.

Hello,
do you think about this, please have a look here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7b86a .html.

Translucent gray over image in thumbnil (grid) view

See example image below:
one thumbnail looks OK (on left), but other, problem image (on right) has translucent gray layer over image!
The problem images are not in a stack.
If I click the problem image thumbnail it looks normal, but the gray overlay re-appears if I click on anther image.
It shows OK in develop module.
I know this is probably something stupid, but...can anyone help identify what is happening?
-Colin

Most probably you have flagged the image as "rejected" by pressing "X" on your keyboard.
When an image is flagged as rejected it gets that grey overlay that disappears when you select the image. You can still edit them in the Develop Module.
To delete the "Rejected" flag, select the images with the grey overlay and press "U" or "P" on your keyboard. "U" stands for "Unflagged". "P" stands for "Picked".

Roll-over images

Does RoboHelp support roll-over images?
I've tried every way to insert a roll-over image into my
project, including editing the html page in dreamweaver but as soon
as I open it up in RoboHelp and generate it the images either does
not change or it is not visible.
Please advise...
Thanks,
Susy Carrillo

You might take a look at
Walter
Zorn's free tooltip utility, a really neat onMouseover
application that makes your tooltips look like popups, including
the use of links within them.
You can use it for text links or in combination with image
maps. So far, I'm using only the former, but I'll be using the
latter for some new, complex C# screens in our next version
release.
There are a few things that can trip you up, such as: all the
HTML inside the Javascript area (the
escape('Some text') portion) cannot have carriage returns;
and certain characters must be escaped with a backslash (such as
replacing double quotes with backslashed single quotes). However,
it's all explained quite well on his site. You can control
backgrounds, transparencies, images, placement, etc.
As Peter says, do all your testing in a scrub project before
going live in the real one.
Good luck,
Leon

Making Roll over images from photoshop layout

Hello Everyone,
I am working on a website and I have sliced my parts of my Photoshop file.
I have saved as a html with images as well!
How would I amek a roll over image out of the buttons I made in photoshop and sliced?

Best thing you can do is delete that HTML file from Photoshop and use the slices and build the code in Dreamweaver. You will be much better off.
The simplest solution is to save the 2 states of your button as 2 separate images then click on Insert->Image Objects->Rollover Image. Then select your before and after image. Just remember to upload the javascript file Dreamweaver creates during this process or it won't work online.
