Play Button with Transition

I am trying to create an initial slide that will look similar to a video played on Youtube. I would like the user to click on a Play Icon which triggers a transition to fade out and then start the presentation.
Any ideas how I would do this?

Hi,
By default Captivate generated files plays automatically. There is an option to start playing the movie on demand.
Open your project in Captivate and follow Edit> Preferences > Project > Start and End > Uncheck the "Auto Play" check box. This will insert a play button and in the published file until user clicks on the play button movie does not start playing.
Now to  trigger a transition on clicking the play button insert a blank slide with background similar to your presentation.Let the blank slide be the first slide. Reduce its slide time. In the Slide properties of the Blank slide change its transition. Now a transition effect gets created after clicking on the play Button.
Hope this helps !!

  • Play button, with audio and symbols with symbols

    Hi,
    So my animation is a song and I'm doing like a video clip with interactivity (the interactivity is not inside at the moment).
    I need to have  a play button so we can see (heard) on iPhone, iPad...
    My problem is that the animation begin immediatly behind the play button and before I press it.
    So the song and the animation are not synchronise.
    I try many things to stop the animation but nothing is working.
    I 'm not use to the code, so I'm lost.
    Here is the link :

    An idear will be the welcome
    Thanks

    Hi Steph,
    Since your animation is contained in a nested symbol, you need to turn "Autoplay" off for that symbol. Double click your "ANIM" symbol- there is a little checkbox that says "Autoplay", in the Properties panel at top left. If you uncheck that box, that symbol will not autoplay.
    On the click of your button, you will then need to add this line of code, to make that symbol's timeline play:
    sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("ANIM").play();

  • Keyboard play buttons with iTunes 7

    Hi,
    I used to use MultiPlugin for iTunes 6 to operate my iTunes controls with the keyboard, however this won't install on iTunes 7. Does anyone have any other way to do this?
    Thanks!
    Jason

    You best bet is to wait abit til there able to "Catch up" and release an update so it does work with iTUnes 7 since iTunes 7 is a major update rewritting alot of its underpinnings

  • White Slide with Play Button (HTML5), Cp7

    Does anyone know why you get the blank white screen with a play button with HTML5? Why doesn't it use first frame or allow us to put in a "poster file"?
    I posted a workaround that required editing files in Cp6 but I am curious if Cp7 has addressed this issue?
    Thanks.
    Dave

    The same workaround is reuired.
    Go in assets and change the .CSS then you also need to edit the index.html to center the image like you did before.
    And yes it is impossible to get rid of it all toghether because of Apple policies.

  • I cannot activate the play button on a video in firefox using the keyboard

    I am blind and use a screen-reader called JAWS For Windows to navigate the internet. Because I am blind I cannot use a mouse and rely on the keyboard to navigate and interact with web pages. I tend to play a lot of video for business reasons. I can, using internet explorer, navigate to and press the play button in websites such as Youtube. However this is not possible using firefox. I sometimes have occasion to use video download helper and in order to download I have to play the video first and unless there is someone around who can click the play button with a mouse I cannot do this. Any ideas? I have tried on two different computers, 1 is a netbook running IE8 with Windows 7 starter edition and the other is a desktop running Windows XP Home SP3. I would much prefer to be using firefox on a permanent basis as it also gives me access to a plugin which deals with Captcha Images.

    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible:
    *"View > Toolbars"
    Open the Customize window to set which toolbar items to display:
    *View > Toolbars > Customize
    *Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout
    *Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    *If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

  • Trouble playing/pausing with Zen Micro touch

    I am having a fairly peculiar (and frustating) issue with my new Zen Micro's touchpad. For me, the Play "button" (area) works only sporatically. Here's the symptoms: I can reliably press the Play/Pause button with my thumb, but I can't reliably press play with the tip of my finger. I NEED to be able to do this since I set the player on my desk at work and will need to quickly hit the Pause button if something comes up (read: if I actually have to work).
    I have the latest firmware, so that isn't a solution for me and I have tried playing with different sensitivity settings. After playing around quite a bit, I have determined that the button requires something wide pressing down on it to work. The narrow tip of my finger doesn't work, but the (wider) side of my thumb or even 2 finger tips work great.
    Has anyone experienced something similar to this? Is my player functioning normally? Any help is much appreciated.

    i have the same problem. back, forward and volume control works fine. sometime much too good
    but play, back and menu is only reacting sometimes for me.
    and thats the second player i have. had the same prob with the first and got a new one from the vendor.
    someone here could help out a little plz? can you all use the play button with the tip of your finger ?Message Edited by washi on 02-23-2005 0:47 AM

  • Problems with Transitions in FCP Exported Files - How to Fix?

    I have completed an HD 16:9 project which plays properly with transitions in FCP 5.1.4, but when I export it, the transitions have a momentary "blink" to black just as the they begin, and then they complete normally -- a very distracting annoyance. I tried several different transitions, and the same problem occurs. I also tried exporting to several different formats and the problem persists. I also tried applying the flicker filter and the deinterlace filter with no success. I would appreciate any help!

    I would also check to make sure the frame rates between your media and sequence really match. This type of thing has also been seen when working with 24p DV50 material - renders such as transitions were showing time shifts and repeated frames.
    If this is HDV, you might try isolating one offending transition, exporting the clips as AIC and rebuilding an re-rendering it just to see if it helps. If it does, you could probably use media manager to convert all of the clips in your sequence and reconnect automatically.
    Hope this helps -

  • Flash movies with play button don't work

    I have the 'simple' problem that everytime I see a "play" button on a web page with flash content, clicking on it won't start the movie.  However, e.g. YouTube movies work fine. So it seems it's just movies that do not start automatically after clicking on a link.
    Also, checking the flash player e.g. at the Adobe site (http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html), tells me in a flash box I have the latest flash player installed, and I see the  flash movie 'flash player is running on your system' with the red ball rolling in it.
    I have the same problem for both google Chrome and for IE.
    I still have an old Dell Inspiron 6000 notebook with Win XP (latest updates) and ATI mobility Radeon X300 graphics chip, for which I also installed the latest available drivers.
    Experimenting with Flash Player settings was unsuccessful so far (e.g. no hardware acceleration, clearing all internet data in the Flash Player global settings tool).
    My desktop (also with Win XP and with the same browsers and Flash Players/Flash Plugins installed works fine...).
    I also know that it worked at an earlier time with this NB...
    I managed to run the movie with a Linux Live CD but that is not what I want to do every time...
    Any idea is highly appreciated.....

    Hi BalusC, i have saved the datamodel (a ArrayList) in SessionBean. It can't be null. The rows of table display correct. I don't understand, why functions buttons with ObjectArrayDataProvider, but not with ObjectListDataProvider?

  • I have noticed an issue with utilizing the "stream" function on iOS 7. If you choose to just stream the movie by hitting the play button it seems to actually start downloading (which is fine) but if you are say halfway thru the movie and stop you can clea

    I have noticed an issue with utilizing the “stream” function on iOS 7. If you choose to just stream the movie by hitting the play button it seems to actually start downloading (which is fine) but if you are say halfway thru the movie and stop you can clearly see that storage has been reduced under the usage, yet under the “videos” tab it still states “No Data” the only way to delete what you have partially downloaded is to fully download the video, which is fine but there is no way to tell what videos have been partially downloaded (I.e which occurs a lot when your child switches between movies using the so called “stream” function). This becomes troublesome once the capacity of the ipad is almost met and you have no way to delete this data since you may have several videos that have started to be viewed (hence partially downloaded). Apple needs to somehow make it truly streaming or provide an update so the storage can be managed. The only way I have been able to remove partially downloaded videos is by doing a total software restore. (The video data that is in question when connected to my MacBook shows up in iTunes as “other”) if you have any insight into this issue it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    '''Again, when I set my DNS server to automatically detect the servers both problems disappear and I have no issues at all.'''
    IMO opendns is either doing this on purpose (unlikely) or they're under some sort of attack/being used to attack the specific torrent sites although I'm open to other explanations. I believe using the automatic setting for DNS is using my own ISP's DNS servers (which again, work fine... but still...)
    I'd rather not use Google's public DNS servers as Google is to commercial these days and I think there's potential privacy issues.

  • MAKE EMBEDDED QUICKTIME WITH PLAY BUTTON IN FRAME

    Hello does anyone know how to make an embed quicktime with a play button in the video frame so it has a poster frame and a button on it and wont play until it is clicked on

    It's known as a poster movie. The first file acts as either a placeholder (or a button) that is linked to the second file.
    You can use any image format to create your click to play "button" and add it to a single frame from your movie or to another image. Size this 16 pixels higher than your movie source file if you plan on showing the movie controller and save it as poster.mov.
    Your html code will have this poster movie load and nothing further will happen until your visitor clicks on it. Once clicked the second .mov file will begin downloading and then playing. You can also use this poster movie technique to load a second movie directly in the QuickTime Player app.

  • Can one button type play nicely with others?

    So, I'm creating this nice little movie that has 5 or so
    buttons on it (think: click on image to see painting, like a
    gallery) and I've got four of the buttons working nicely with a
    little help from my friend Actionscript 3.0 (eventListener and his
    friend gotoAndStop and some others). These buttons go to a new
    keyframe in the movie that contain the images for each button.
    Relatively easy.
    My question concerns the last button. This button wants
    information (text) to pop-up or go away when clicked irrespective
    of what frame the movie is on. I can't for the life of me figure
    out how to get this done. And in a related question, is it possible
    for this button to stay in it's down state until clicked again
    (like a pause/play button on a music player)?
    Sorry in advance for this lame question and thanks for any
    input.

    Either create a movieclip with text and control its
    visibility with the button, or have a textfield and assign/remove
    text.
    You cannot make a button hold a state when mouse events
    change for it. You can either create a movieclip version of it and
    control where it is in its own timeline, or have two buttons, one
    drawn for the normal state and one drawn for the down state, and
    control their visibility between each each on clicking them....
    click one, it makes the other visible and itself invisible,
    etc.

  • Problem/ bridge with stack of images...no play button

    The play button next to the number on my stack does not appear. I cannot view the preview for the slideshow. The black circle also does not appear as I hover with my mouse.
    Thanks for any help

    I don't see a "Play" button the circumstance where frames are placed in a Stack.  What has led you to believe you should see such a button?
    Have you tried the View - Slideshow menu?

  • How do I hide the SWF play button when printing an embedded PDF with a SWF

    When I print the PDF there is a big play button over some text. Can it be hidden?
    Is there are a way of resizing a SWF once embedded? It's a pain to work with.
    Sometimes, although the SWF is transparent and embedded as transparent but when printed it buts a grey box behind.
    Any ideas Adobe?

    If the annotation isn't activated, you are printing the JPEG poster image instead - which doesn't have transparency. By default, poster images created from the media will have the play icon burned in, just choose your own image.

  • I have put several clips with transitions into the timeline in final cut pro. There are two clips which are followed by transitions which do not play at the right speed. It is extremely frustrating, can anyone help?

    I have put several clips with transitions into the timeline in final cut pro X. There are two separate clips which are followed by transitions which do not play at the right speed. I'm at a loss as to why this is happening - any thoughts/help?

    The two HD clips were purchased from itunes (MPEG - 4) and converted to .mov for use in Final Cut Pro. Project properties - 720p HD 1280x720 (60p)
    Is this enough information?
