Playback control disappears

In my course the playback control appears in all the slides (including demo) except the simulation. What happened and how can I get it back on all the pages?

Hmmm... and please, mention the version you are using?
Can you check if some objects are scored in the simulation: open the Advanced Interaction panel (F9) where you can see all scored objects and scored question slides.
If that is the case, can you check the Quiz Preferences, Settings: is perhaps the option 'Hide Playbar in Quiz' checked?

How do I add playback control to a .swf file in Director 11.5 (PLEASE HELP!)

Hi,
I am currently trying to add controls (play/stop/etc) to a .swf file within Director 11.5. The movie imports fine and plays perfectly, however there does seems to be built in options to add the control in the same way you would for a .mov.
The .swf file has been created with controls and plays outside of director fine. When it is placed into director the controls disappear and leave a white space.
Is there a step by step guide somewhere or can someone give me a step by step guide? I'm fairly new to director and won't know some of the terms etc....
The movie is 30 mins long and requires the user to move to various points and pause the playback. I cannot change the format of the file either.
Please let me know if you need any more info...
PLEASE HELP, I have to complete this in 2 days.

Probably too late for your project but...
You can do this by using 3 sprites in addition to the SWF. In this example, I've named them "videoPlay", "videoRewind, and "videoStop". The SWF in this case was named "video."
Apply this script to each of the 3 sprites.
property mySprite
on beginSprite me
mySprite = sprite(me.spriteNum)
end
on mouseUp me
case mySprite.name of
    "videoPlay":
      sprite("video").play()
    "videoStop":
      sprite("video").stop()
    "videoRewind":
      sprite("video").stop()
      sprite("video").rewind()
end case
end

IPad mini losses playback controls/capabilities using shared library content videos

While accessing my shared "authorized" video library on my MacBook Pro, using the latest iTunes version (as of this submission), with my sparkling new iPad mini, the playback controls simply disappear usually after a few minutes, i.e. no progress bar, buttons for stop/start/pause/"done".
The video stream from the shared library cannot be stopped without the on-screen controls so we either attempt to turn off the unit (pressing the top on/off button) or (usually) press the home button after which the video stream/app stops then return to the expected ipad screen but the residual sound stream will continue to run indefinitely.
Most of the time, we hit the home button to end the video playback then wait for the sound stream portion to end which on average takes up to 1-5 minutes to stop completely.
This is repeatable too.
SUMMARY:
1). Without power cycling, we can play a video from the shared librar
2). then wait long enough for the video controls to "go missing" or again go unresponsive
3.) then press the home button which returns you to your normal iPad screen
4.) but the sound stream portion will take a while to take its course before ending.
Also, we gave power-cycling between issues but the each and every time, the shared library video playback inevitably ended up with same results.
iPad mini with iOS 6.1.3 factory , wifi only unit with legitimate software, etc. I.e. no jailbreak nonsense.
Any suggestions? Or is this a glitch/bug which needs addressing? Or a simple setting on the unit?
Thanks in advance!!!

I have nearly the same problem, but with an iPad 3rd generation. The symptoms are exactly the same, just a different device.
You documented the problem well, I can only add that resetting and reloading did not solve the problem for me.

Full Screen Playback Control Impossible Using Monitor 2 in Dual Monitor

Recent iTunes update (patch didn't fix) causes playback control to disappear when the cursor is on the monitor showing the movie. Controls reappear when cursor is moved to first monitor. User cannot get the cursor near the control panel. Must drop out of full screen playback to touch controls with the cursor.

Isn't there a SINGLE MONITOR option in COLOR? Use that.
I don't think two graphics cards will work with Color, as Color relies on the card when it comes time to render. Might mess it up, or not work.

What happened to the Control M to minimize the iTunes to playback controls only?

I used to use Control+M to minimize iTunes to the playback controls only. This has disappeared with recent updates. The help files refer to a zoom control in the upper left corner of the iTunes window that does not exist. How do I regain the functionality of the playback only controls?

You may have discovered this in the last several months but I'm pretty sure the "control+m" shortcut was replaced with "control+shift+m"

Can Captivate 7's playback controls control Flash swf files?

Hi folks,
I have created a swf file using Adobe Flash and I have imported it as an animation slide in Captivate 7. I have turned on the playback controls to just have the play button and the progress bar. When I export the presentation, the playback controls do not work. The scrubber moves as the presentation is playing, but I can't pause the presentation. When I stop the scrubber or even move it left or right, it does not affect the presentation and it just keeps playing. Am I doing something wrong? I don't want to have to create a custom nav bar in Flash as it would just be easier to use Captivate's playback bar.

I don't think it can be expained quickly as it can be very complicated. But...
Select New Project/Widget in Flash and choose static widget. You need to be very adept in AS3 to actually get them to work.

CS6 problem. When I open the Mask panel, it takes up the entire screen width and the Looks controls disappear, Also, there is a new panel below the Mask panel that seems to have no purpose that I can find. The documentation says "Mask and Look panels - The Mask panel is now placed next to the Look panel. WIth the masking and grading tools placed side-by-side, you can now work faster on the mask workflow." Is there a way to move, hide, or otherwise manipulate the panels for a custom layout? All the examples I can find on the Web show the Looks panel to the left of the Mask panel where the controls are available.

Ok, here is what I have so far. Appdelete the iWork and reinstalled. Pages and Number work, but not Keynote.
Now, I downloaded a couple apps that I need, and no matter what I did, the spinning ball came up and the download stopped till it unlocked itself. It is really frustrating because the download was not completed and whatever came through would not mount. Could this issue be the internet connection? Permission fix showed a lot of Airport issues. I will try to run permissions fix again.

How to add a custom multimedia playback control to add a time line of what is being played?

How to add a custom skin in multimedia playback control to add a time line of what is being played? As it is being played...
I need a time line so any part of the what is being played can be found by time, ie at 1 minute and 30 seconds in and continues for 45 seconds out of a 50 minute audo.

If you're talking about a playback controller within the rich media annotation (RMA) then you need to write your own widget in Flash or Flex, and then place the video and widget files using the multimedia "Add Flash" tool in Acrobat instead of the "Add Video" tool. Aside from a bunch of proprietary code to handle events, commenting and the API (which you can live without for basic play-pause-scrub applications), video RMAs are just an embedded SWF file containing an FLVPlayback component. The skin and the video file itself are added to the RMA as resource entries. You can build your own version and have it display whatever controls you want, provided you know how to write ActionScript!
If you're talking about a controller that's external to the RMA (e.g. a series of links or buttons elsewhere on the page) then in the past you would use FLV video files and the 'cue points' feature that's built into Acrobat - however Adobe removed the ability to create FLV files in the latest version of CC, so unless you have CS6 or earlier it's a non-starter. Instead you can manually set playback start points using the special "multimedia operations" link action in your PDF - though stopping playback at a defined point is very difficult without FLV cues. For that you're back to writing your own widget.

Looking for better playback controls

When I create FLV files for web streaming directly through
Adobe Flash, I
can take advantage of many choices of playback controls, my
favorite one
being the ArcticExternalAll. The downside: RIPing my slide
shows takes
hours.
The newest version of ProShow Producer has greatly improved
Flash export,
allowing me to create high-quality Flash files directly from
it in a
fraction of the time -- minutes instead of hours. Its
downside: Only a
use-it-or-not choice of one playback control, and it's a
lousy one.
I would like to learn more about these playback controls:
- Which file is responsible for designating the controls, the
SWF or the
FLV?
- Can the user swap one control for another?
- Can I take the external ArcticExternalAll.swf and somehow
patch the video
to include the control file?
Any input is appreciated...

I misspoke, then, or I was not specific enough. I take AVI
files and import
them into Flash and then publish them as FLVs. That is the
sum total of my
experience using Flash.
However, I am an advanced computer user and a quick study, so
if you were to
point me in the right direction, that is likely all I would
need...

Dreamweaver CC fluid grid controls disappearing and other info

Hi All,
I have finally completed my first commercial fluid grid design in Dreamweaver CC and it was a bit of a mission.
One disconcerting thing about the program is that the fluid grid controls keep disappearing. You know, the ones where you can hide the div, duplicate it, move it up or down, or delete it.
I have found that when this happens, I need to close the html file I am working on in DW CC and then open it again. The controls then appear again, so you can rearrange your various layouts as demonstrated in those breezy demo videos about DW CC fluid grid layouts.
So don't just conclude you have broken the code when these controls disappear, try closing and opening the file again first.
Also you need to insert all the divs you need for all layouts in the mobile phone layout, as that is the main layout, governing all the others because of the way the media queries are set up in the CSS file that is created when you start your fluid grid layout.
I could not work out how to reorder divs in the different layouts, this may not be possible at the moment. Instead I created divs in the phone layout to cover all of the divs needed in the three layout sizes and switched them off and on in the various layouts. This works really well, but I found that DW behaved strangely if I switched a div off in the mobile layout and then tried to style it in one of the other layouts. So I suggest styling all of the divs first for all the layouts before switching any of them off in the mobile layout.
Also you can't copy the contents of one div and put them in another without freaking the program out, especially if you are working in a div that is hidden in the mobile layout.
I suggest saving regularly as you add new divs and style them and view live in a browser immediately, as the preview in DW CC is not reliable. It can't show rounded div corners or shadows for example.
Keep an eye on the code as it is built by your use of the CSS Properties panel. If it starts going wrong, close the html file without saving it or the attached CSS file. Then go back in and try what you want to do again.
If you save weird code errors, your work could be so compromised that you need to start all over again. So quit out without saving if you notice this.
After much experimentation I now insert images into a div, rather than make them a background image, as the background image will not completely show if the content of the div is not long enough. This may require a rethink of your design.
Doing any absolute sizes in a div will make the responsive design very hard to style and possibly break the code, so I don't suggest it.
Adding padding to a div can make it stick out of right edge of the design, I am not sure why this is the case and could not work out how to stop it. So use low pixel numbers in the padding of a div.
Also control z seems to be a sudden death move, so I stopped doing that.
So my first job has been a bit of a ride, but I seem to be nearly there on my first design.
I think DW CC is still a work in progress and I look forward to further updates of the software.

Hi Top Ten,
You can't get them back once they go. You now need to edit the css code manually to do the same thing.
For instance if you want divs to sit beside each other you put this in the css for that div:
clear: none;
This css means that div will allow other divs to sit beside it.
Then put in a width in percentages. For example if you have three divs that need to sit beside each other put:
width: 33%;
in each of them. Or maybe:
width: 31%;
margin-right: 2%;
Fortunately in DWCC it is now robust enough for you to do those code changes by hand. My original question in this thread was posed when DW CC fluid grid had just come out and crashed easily. A year later all is well, so you can do those changes in the css code without problems now.
Regards,
Mary

ActiveX controls disappear when VI is loaded in a Sub-Panel with Start Modal Dialog usage

Hi,
I have a subpanel in a VI (VI1) in which another VI (VI2) is loaded. VI1 is used as a module for an Action step in TestStand. VI2 has ActiveX controls like ExpressionEdit and Adobe PDF reader etc. VI1 loads VI2 in a sub-panel and calls Start Modal Dialog.vi. I have set 'Show front panel when called' to true for VI1 so that the VI pops up when the sequence is run. When the sequence runs and when the Start Modal Dialog VI is called from VI1, all ActiveX controls in VI2 (loaded in the sub-panel) disappears. Here is the screenshot of the frontpanel of VI1 when the sequence is run:
This problem occurs in TestStand 4.2.1, TestStand 2010 and TestStand 2010 SP1 (as far as I have tested. May occur in older versions too). In the attached file, VI1 is 'ExprEdit Test.vi' and VI2 is 'SubpanelLoad.vi'. The attached sequence is developed in TestStand 2010 SP1.
How can this issue be solved?
Thank you,
Ganesh Kumar

Subpanel Load ExpressionEdit problem.zip ‏23 KB

Hi,
An update on this issue: I tried changing the order of loading the VI in the SubPanel and the start modal dialog. I called start modal dialog and then loaded the VI (VI2) in the SubPanel. When I ran the sequence, the activeX controls did not disappear (I was pretty sure that the ActiveX controls in VI2 would not disappear since I am calling Start Modal Dialog before loading the VI in the Subpanel). Then I just changed the sequence of operations back to the previous order (loading the Subpanel with the VI and then calling the Start Modal Dialog). When I ran the sequence, the activeX controls where still displayed. But when I ran the sequence with the VI1 backup (that I had taken before making all these modifications) the activeX controls were not displayed. I a nutshell, I now have 2 versions whose codes are the same. But when I run the sequence with action steps for these VIs, the activeX controls disappear when the unmodified backup VI runs and does not disappear when the modified VI is run. I have attached the files that I used along with the sequence file. The details are as follows:
ExprEdit Test (Not Working).vi - The unmodified backup VI for which the ActiveX controls disappear.
ExprEdit Test (Working).vi - The modified VIs in which the ActiveX Controls do not disappear (But same code as ExprEdit Test (Not Working).vi).
ExpreEdit Test.seq - The sequence file containing 2 action steps one each for theabove mentioned VIs.
SubpanelLoad.vi - The VI that contains activeX controls and is loaded in the SubPanel.
Note that the sequence is created in TestStand 4.2.1.
Thank you,
Ganesh Kumar

Create playback controls for Timeline in sync with audio?

Hi All,
Technically, I've combined two questions into one. Firstly, can someone offer some insight on how to create playback controls for an Edge animation so the user can essentially "scrub" the timeline or navigate to a specific point on the timeline. I know you can create buttons to "sym.play()" different areas but I was wondering if there was a more streamlined solution (something similar to video playback controls.) Next, I'd like the user to be able to skip to different locations while the music remains in sync with the animations. I've created a few buttons to attempt to achieve this but the music plays independently regardless of where I jump to on the timeline.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

I had some ideas why that may be so, but then, when I thought about it, properly, i have no idea why it is that way. Maybe it is because audio has a higher priority than graphics, in OS X, but if I remember correctly, it was like this before OS X. Maybe there is an offset for latency compensation, but they made it too large. (it seems to be the same amount, no matter what the buffer size is)
just to make sure we are seeing the same thing. on my (somehat old) G4 I'm seeing about 60ms difference.

Playback Controls Do Not Function

I have created movies that have the playback control located
at the bottom center of the movie. I have published the movie in
both SWF and HTM formats. Usually, the forward, rewind, pause, etc.
buttons work but the Exit button does not work.
Does anyone know why it doesn't work? How can I make it work?
I do not know javascript, if you are going there. I am not a
developer. I am a software trainer struggling to make a
demonstration movie work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Please help quickly! I am in a bind!

Hi Susan
Here is one thing to try. It may or may not work, but may be
worth a shot.
Insert the following code:
JavaScript:var
pw=window.parent;pw.opener=window.self;pw.close();
Where?
* Insert > Button
or
* Insert > Click box
or
* Movie > Preferences > Start and end tab > Movie
End Options.
Configure "Execute JavaScript" as the action.
Click the ellipsis (...) button to produce another dialog.
Paste code from above into the dialog.
Click OK to dismiss the dialog.
Click OK to dismiss the properties or preferences dialog.
Publish and test the movie.
Cheers... Rick

Flash player controls disappear

I have inserted a flash movie in my web site. The controls
disappear when you move the cursor away from the movie.
Is there a way to make the controls stay visible all the time?

Hi
This probably has to do with the skin you are using, try changing your skin to a different one, (try clear_skin).

Default Transport controls disappears when i use separate windows

The title is pretty clear. When i use separate windows for mixer and video, the transport controls disappears. (By the way, STP1 had a much better interface. Why one big closed window in STP 2?) How to have the transport controls back?

This sounds like a JDeveloper/ADF issue that is not related to JHeadstart. To simplify the test case, you could create a simple drag-and-drop ADF application without JHeadstart and see if the same problem occurs there. Try to access the session variable in a custom data action similar to the way JhsDataAction does it when applying the query bind params.
If it reproduces, can you please log a TAR at MetaLink ( http://metalink.oracle.com/ ), or ask this question at the JDeveloper forum at http://otn.oracle.com/discussionforums/jdev.html ? Thanks.
Hope this helps,
