Pop-ups (custom animations) work in PPT presentation, but don't in published presenter PDF

Pop-ups (custom animations) work in PPT presentation, but don't in published presenter PDF. I created a file in PowerPoint 2003 that allows the user to click on words in a graphic and have definitions of the word pop-up. This only works in the PPT presentation, it does not work when I publish the file to PDF using Adobe Presenter, version 7.0.5, build 7588. Any suggestions?

MKO,
That's not entirely surprising.  Unfortunately, what you're doing cannot be replicated or executed properly in Presenter content, because trigger functions are essentially Active X controls native to the PowerPoint environment.  And that's the problem: Active X commands are totally ignored when your deck is converted during the publishing process.
So what to do?
You have 2 options, and neither are "clean" solutions because each represents a bit of homework.
Scenario 1: what you could do is create a series of hidden slides that are associated with / correspond to each of the text elements you have on the first slide.  You'd have to assign hyperlinks to the text boxes and then point the hyperlinks to the associated hidden slide.  The upside here is that if you have to edit any content after-the-fact, is that you can conduct such edits directly in PowerPoint.  But there is a drawback too; namely, that if you have to keep track of slide views, hidden slides are not tracked at all by LMSs (including Adobe Connect), so you'd have to come up w/ a formula for counting the number of visible slides so your presentation will mark a "complete" on the LMS.
Scenario 2: create a Flash interaction that effectively does the exact same thing.  The drawback to this I hope is obvious: if you have any content edits, then you're forced to edit the file directly in Flash.  The good news here, however, is that this solution only requires one slide, so you can effectively keep track of slide views if that's something you need if the course is deployed on an LMS.
Again, perhaps not ideal, but the above does represent alternative solutions to what you attempted to do in your sample deck.

  • View containing custom column works in SharePoint 2010 but crashes webpart in SharePoint 2013

    First off.. I am using SP FOUNDATION.  Secondly, I'm linking a contact library from a parent site to a view on a sub site. This works in SP 2010 but when I tried to duplicate it in our new SP 2013 site, it doesn't.
    Reproduce steps to add Parent Contact Picks to Blog Sub-Site in SP 2010 (Foundation)
    In parent site, create a contact list (add some people)
    In parent site à Site Settings
    à Site Columns … create a new Column of type “Lookup”. 
    Set the Information Source to the Contact List in step 1 with its Column = “Last Name (linked to item)” 
    Create a BLOG sub site
    BlogSite à Site Settings
    à Site Libraries and Lists
    à Posts
    à Add from existing site columns …. Select the Lookup column you created in step 2.
    BlogSite à Site Settings
    à Site Libraries and Lists
    à Posts
    à Create View à Standard View….Create a new view and select ONLY the lookup column from step 4.
    Add a new Blog post and while in the ‘New-Item’ form, make sure to select a person from the Contact list.
    Open up the details page of the new post so that only the single post shows. Edit the Page and Insert a New Web Part
    à Lists and Libraries
    à Posts.
    Edit the newly added web part and change its view to the one created above in step 5.
    Drop the down arrow to the right of the newly added web part’s title and select Connections
    à Get Filtered values From
    à Post [1] (or whatever the default Post Web part is called). Set both the “Provider” and the “Consumer” field names to “ID”.
    You will now see that whenever you open the “Details” page of any blog post, you will see the Main post (aka the original form), the normal “Add Comment” entry web part, AND 
    the new web part that show the Contact selection specific to that single post. Clicking on the Name of the contact will actually pop up the details from the parent site.
    SharePoint 2013 (Foundation)
    Now perform the exact same steps in SharePoint 2013. However you’ll notice that Step 8 above appears to work but as soon as you try and edit that web part again or move on to step 9, the newly added web part states “Unable to display this Web Part. To troubleshoot
    the problem….. Correlation ID: 52d36c9c-e7a2-509e-1d60-3df1ce53ce2d”.
    Followup: In doing some testing I determined the following..
    1 - If I adjust step #5 as to NOT select the new linked column.. it works. Oddly however, the new view works when are you just using the view by itself (/site/lists/Posts/NewViewname.aspx).
    2 - I can fix the crash by enabling the 'Server Render' option on the WebPart. This actually now shows my information however the linked field is no longer a link.
    3 - As long as it's not a Lookup type column, I can follow the same process and do not need the Server Render option. Of course these other types are not live links.
    Seems like a bug to me.

    I set "Breakline" hidden because I don't want to show this in create new item form. 
    I realized that may be the reason. So changed the column to Optional in CT and created a new calendar using that CT. then at list level CT I changed it to Hidden.  That works.   The column is available for use when modifying view.
    Thanks

    Pancenter...
    Yes... but I have come across some setups that came with a native SL (and even one Lion!) installation.. that somehow had a corrupted or older Prokit installed for some unknown reason... and given it's a quick fix to try.. I thought I'd mention it..
    I frankly don't think it is entirely a Prokit issue itself, but it wouldn't do any harm to try and install v7 just in case it is part of the problem...
    +1 on the UAD stuff....
    Also, at the time it crashed... according to the logs...the OP was running Ableton Live at the same time, presumably rewired with Logic... so add all that together with UAD plugins... and that's quite a load on the system...
    Finally in thread 32 there is a weird exception msg relating to the Trash2 plugin.. that I haven't seen before...
    Thread 32:
    0   libSystem.B.dylib      
    0x94c29afa mach_msg_trap + 10

    That might be nothing... but as i said, I haven't seen that one before and given what else is going on.. it might be involved too... or nothing to do with that at all!

  • Pop-Ups No Longer Work?

    I have a portfolio page that I put together with Flash MX.
    The interface is bsically a chart that has a bunch of buttons on
    it. These buttons each have a code similar to this;
    on (release) {
    getURL("javascript:openNewWindow
    ('file.html','thewin','height=600,width=800,toolbar=no,scrollbar=no,resizable=no,menubar= no')");
    This used to work - but not now.
    Even when I check my browser for pop-up/javascript enabling,
    it no longer works.
    Does anyone know why? Or what the given workaround (with all
    those linked pages) would be?

  • Custom Login works in IE Explorer, but not mozilla 1.2. Why?

    Portal Rel. 2, all patches applied. Our custom login portlet works just fine when IE Explorer is the browser. When mozilla 1.2 is the browser, everything processes without errors, but the user is never logged in. The portlet is calling the procedure wwptl_login.login_url, and p_requested_url is set to portal.home. Any idea why it would work using one browser and not the other?

    Firefox does not use the same version of Flash as Internet Explorer, you need to download and install the version of Flash used by Firefox.
    Using Firefox go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ to download the installer, then run this file to install Flash.

  • Customized selectBooleanCheckbox works fine on Firefox but not IE, Opera?

    I'm using a customized selectBooleanCheckbox solution to give me a 'select all' like feature:
    <h:form>
    <h:dataTable binding="#{DialogManager.bean.nodeTable}" value="#{DialogManager.bean.nodeList}" var="nodeItem" border="1" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="1" >
        <h:column>
            <f:facet name="header">
               <h:selectBooleanCheckbox value="#{DialogManager.bean.selectAll}" valueChangeListener="#{MultipleSelectionDialog.allSelected}" immediate="true" onchange="this.form.submit();" />       
            </f:facet>
            <h:selectBooleanCheckbox value="#{nodeItem.selected}" />       
        </h:column>
    </h:dataTable>
    </h:form>When a user clicks on the selectBooleanCheckbox in the header, the other selectBooleanCheckboxs should also be selected. This works on Firefox, but not on IE or Opera. On IE, the checkbox in the header is selected and none of the checkboxs beneath it are selected. On Opera, the checkbox in the header is only selected for a moment before it is deselected.
    Why would this happen? How can I fix it for IE and Opera?

    tried onclick instead of onchange, no difference.
    The IE browser produces browser failure messages:
    'elements' is Null or not an object
    container.jsp row 325
    'elements.dialog:act' is Null or not an object
    container.jsp row 381
    Code: 0 Character 3I checked in the corresponding files and cannot make sense of the error messages.

  • My custom component works great in cs5 but cast a #1009 error in cs5.5!

    Hello,
    some time ago i made a very useful component in flash cs5 called TimelineLoading:
    you can drag it from the library to the stage and set some properties in the inspector (CIRCLE or BAR loading, color, size, etc...).
    It does the loading of your timeline, showing the progress in a very nice way, and then goes to frame 2 when loading ends.
    It has always worked perfectly, but now, when i try to use the exact same component in Flash CS5.5 it throws a 1009 error, even before starting anything.
    here is the error: Error #1009: at MainTimeline/__setProp___id0__Scene1_Layer1_0()
    you can find the component here:
    http://code.google.com/p/riccardosallusti/downloads/detail?name=TimelineLoading_1_2.mxp&ca n=2&q=#makechanges
    install it with the Extension manager, then drag it to the stage on frame 1, place a big image in flame 2 with a stop(), change the loading type to BAR in the inspector, and then publish.
    note: leaving the default loading type to CIRCLE, does not throw any error but the loading doesn't work.
    If you try it in cs5 everything works fine.
    Thanks

  • Me edge animate project works when I test, but not when I publish. Please help.

    I feel like this has happened to me in the past, but I just cannot get the thing to work when I post it online. It's just a blank page, all white. I think there might be something in the code of one of the .js files that I need to change.
    ??  I saw something about the phrase 'use strict' but I can't find that code anywhere.
    There must be something I'm forgetting. I put all of the published files up on the server, and I just can't access it. Any help would be seriously appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Hyper links work in i-web but when site is published it does not....HELP!!

    Hi group. I am fairly new to I-web and I mus tsay I love the program. It cam with my new I-mac and this is my first mac as I am a "swticher" from the PC days!! I was surprised that the mac came with such a good program as -i-web. Anyway....
    Ok, I deleted the automatic navigation bar, as I wanted to create one using text hyperlinks. In the design mode in i-web, All my links work properly and navagate me from page to page. However once the site is published the links do not work, expect the contact link for sending and e-mail. Not sure why this is happening.
    I even choose "publish entire site" to refresh everything and still nothing. Here is the site so maybe you have an idea
    www.visionmusiconline.com
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Dave

    The most obvious answer would be that the text is being covered by the graphic.
    For a quick fix, you could try bringing the text to the front, publish to a local folder and launch the site from your hard drive to test it by double clicking the index.html file.
    Try building your graphic and then taking a screenshot of it as described here....
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Tricks/PhotoMagic.html
    Drag the JPEG onto the page and then drop the text boxes with the link text on top.

  • Report works on Visual Studio but don't on server

    Can anybody help?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Gabriel,
    According to your description, it seems that the reason why you using expression based query is that you want to filter values from a multiple parameter. If in this case, I suggest you can refer to the following queries:
    Change the query:
    c.name IN ('" & join(Parameters!ProjetoFilho.Value,"','") & "') AND last_updated BETWEEN " & Parameters!Parameter1.Value & " AND " & Parameters!Parameter2.Value & "
    To
    c.name IN (@ProjetoFilho) AND last_updated BETWEEN @Parameter1 AND @Parameter2
    We can use the above format to change the all query, then directly use T-SQL query as the dataset query.  Deploy the report to report server to check the issue again.
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,
