Possible to add a hyperlink on a T/F question slide?

Greetings,
I'm delivering a Captivate 5.0 course in Adobe Connect Pro which is recording completion on the last slide through a True/False question slide (a one-question "Quiz").
However, I want to add a hyperlink to the Correct Caption that appears after the user submits the answer. (I'd also like the Captivate course to close upon clicking the hyperlink, but I'll settle for just the hyperlink actually going somewhere.)
I see that the hotspot, button, & slidelet tools are disabled on this question slide.
I've looked for widgets or some way to run javascript, but I haven't found anything.
What am I missing? How can I add a hyperlink to a question slide?
Thanks in advance,
Cheryl

Hi Cheryl
Normally adding a Hyperlink is simple. You insert a Click Box and link it to the URL. But as you likely have discovered, you cannot insert a Click Box on a Question slide.
So what options do you have?
Well, you could visit Lilybiri's blog and learn how to build your own Question slide using basic tools and Advanced actions in Captivate. At that point the slide is just like any other and you may then insert the Click Box object and link to the URL.
Or you could create a single slide Captivate project that is sized really small and contains nothing but a Click Box that carries out the action of linking to the URL. Then publish that as a SWF. You would then be able to insert the SWF into the Question slide. I'm not sure how well that will actually work in action, but I've done it before without issue. Like anything, your own mileage will probably vary.
Cheers... Rick

Is it possible to add a hyperlink to a comment?

I'd like to be able to click on a hyperlink in the comments box.
I have some GPS data from my trips and would like to link it to google maps.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. iPhoto does not support that capability. You might be able to create an Automator workflow to do it or write an Applescript.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

Add a hyperlink to SSPR success page

Is it possible to add a hyperlink to the FIM 2010 R2 sspr success page after a password reset?
I know you can customize text by modifying the strings.resource file, but I can't seem to add a hyperlink.
If I type out the HTML tag it doesn't work.

Hi,
Unfortunately that didn't work - the cdata tag is simply displayed in the browser, can you see anything wrong with the strings.resources below:

<data name="ResetUseNewPassword" xml:space="preserve">
<value>You can now use your new password to log in - <![CDATA[a href="https://webapp.contoso.com">webapp.contoso.com</a>]]></value>

How to add an audio click box on a quiz slide - adobe captivate 6?

Hi,
I'm trying to add an audio click box on a question slide. It works brilliantly on normal slides but theres no option to add a click box on quiz slides.
I'm trying to add audio on click. So, when somebody clicks that area they will hear a sound. Is there a way to do this on a question slide?
Thanks

Replace those old click boxes by shapes configured as buttons. Have a look at this post:

I have Yahoo mail. I want to add a hyperlink to emails. Your File tool in top bar has Send Link, but nothing happens. Yahoo says to use Format, but not there.

As in someone's previous question, I used to be able to add a hyperlink from a website. On Yahoo help, they say to click the hyperlink button on the formatting toolbar. There is no formatting toolbar. On your top toolbar, under File, there is a Send Link. When I click on this, nothing happens. On the top toolbar, under Edit, the Copy, Cut and Paste are grayed out. Please let me know how I can add a hyperlink to my email. I tried to add one from an Amazon page, but did not see anything on the page to make it possible. Thanks in advance.

First thing...you made a mistake
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.JScrollBar;
import javax.swing.*;When you import javax.swing.*; You automatically
import JScrollPane & JScrollBar class, there's no
need for you to re import again...
That is not always a mistake. There are cases where it makes sense to do both (i.e., to import both '*' and a specific class name from that package at the same time). I believe the common example is:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.util.List;Now you can use "List" as a short name for "java.util.List", but must use "java.awt.List" in full for "java.awt.List" objects. If you just did:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;Then you couldn't use List as a short name for anything--because it is ambiguous. You'd have to use both "java.awt.List" and "java.util.List" spelled out in full.
Or, if you did:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.List; // NOTE CHANGEThen "List" is short for "java.awt.List", and you must use "java.util.List" in full for "java.awt.List" objects.

Add a hyperlink to another document? CS4

Hi,
How would one add a hyperlink to a document that refers to another document?
The basic is:
myDoc.hyperlinks.add(myHyperlinkTextSource, myHyperlinkTextDestination);
How do I get "myHyperlinkTextDestination" if it exists in another, unopened InDesign document?
I suppose I could open the document, get the Hyperlink destination, and then close it again, but in the UI this is not necessary (you simply browse to the required file and can then choose from a list of hyperlink destinations in that file). So how is this scripted?
Thanks,
Ariel

Next, I tried this:
I opened the document and got it's HyperlinkTextDestination.
Then I used it when adding the hyperlink to the main document:
app.activeDocument.hyperlinks.add(mySource, myDestination) //myDestination is a hyperlink destination in another document.
And I get the following error message:
Cannot set this property to an object in another document.
So I'm clearly on a wild goose chase here.
But obviously this is possible since it is doable in the UI.
Any and all help appreciated!
Ariel

Can I add a hyperlink to a stamp in acrobat pro ?

I'm working with blueprints in pdf format and I have created stamps to place on the drawings. I want to add a hyperlink to these stamps to link to another file or document. I can do this by "overlaying" the hyperlink feature. But I really want to be able to save the stamp with the hyperlink intact so I can reuse without having to go through the additional steps. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance, idtwalt

Hi,
An alternative to consider.
Typically, a Stamp incorporates an image.
Consider using a Button.
A Button can show text, an image, or both.
A Button can be given an Action.
The choices for the Action are many.
The Action could be to go to another PDF, go to a named destination in another PDF, some specific view at some designated part of another PDF, or it could be to execute an Acrobat JavaScript.
This alternative approach permits your use of specific images and actions.
A "template" PDF could hold the inventory of Buttons.
Have it opened while working on another PDF file. Use copy-paste to select and insert the Button; then, position it.
Yes, adds time to the work flow.
However, it provides the ability to let a user "link" to a different PDF.
It becomes a question of the relative value of providing the "link" for all future users.
As George points out; a Stamp provides no "interactivity" so its use precludes providing "added value".
Be well...

Is it possible to add an Expand all/Collapse all button in WebHelp Output?

Hi there,
We now have > 15 child projects in our merged online help, each containing hundreds of topics. Each child project is a chapter in our WebHelp online help output.
If a user opens a couple of topics in each project, the TOC can become difficult to navigate. Is it possible to add a button that enables users to collapse all of the open chapters / expand all of the closed chapters? We are using RoboHelp 10.
Thanks a lot,
Niamh

Hi there
Expanding all could be problematic. But collapsing all should be a snap. That is, as long as you don't mind one teensy side effect. That side effect would be that the default topic would load up in the Topic pane and replace whatever topic was open at the time your user clicked the Collapse All.
The way to Collapse All is to simply create a hyperlink that re-opens the WebHelp start page. Things reload fresh (with the TOC all nice and collapsed).
If you would like to suggest to the Adobe development team that we actually get proper collapse or expand all buttons, please feel free to suggest it using the link below:

Is it possible to add a QR code to InDesign eBook?

Is it possible to add a QR code to an InDesign document, and then export to eBook so that the eBook and the QR code will work on mobile devices?

Adding a QR code to the InDesign document, simply creates an embedded image. Anchor that image to a spot in the text and it will translate over to the ePub.
But what is it that you want that QR code to do?
If you want the person reading the book to click the QR code to go to a web page, you'd be better off with a hyperlink.
If you want the person with the book to hold the mobile device up and someone else uses a reader to scan the code, then "Yes." That can be done.
It's awkward, but the devices can mate that way.

Possible to add affiliate banners/links?

Hi all, is it al all possible to add banners etc., for affiliate links to, say, the Apple Store?
I would like to set up a basic page for my local club and to include some links for the odd bit of funding but all of the banners I see contain HTML that you need to put behind a banner etc., so is it possible? I have searched and played around but no luck so far.
Mnay thanks in advance
Michael

OK, answering my own question now - albeit a part of it! I have played around a bit and find that I can import an image and add a hyperlink to a static picture. My problems above seem to be related to the fact that the apple affiliate banners are annimated gif's. The gif's play fine on a page uploaded via iWeb but I can't find any way to add a hyerlink so that the viewer can click and go through the Apple store.
Any help would be great.
Many thanks
Michael

Is it possible to add markups to a PDF that I am not the author of

Most of the PDFs I generate are from other applications (like Autocad) where I "print to PDF" to create the file.   Most of the PDFs I recevie are generated the same way.   Prior to Acrobat Reader 8, it was simple for me and my collueges to exchange information on these PDFs by using markup tools and resending them with markups.   Since Acrobat 8 has come along, I now find it impossible to markup a drawing (no matter if I have created it using Print to PDF or if someone has sent it to me). I went to the knowledge base and see that the drawing has to be enabled for markup in one of 2 ways
In an open PDF, choose Comments > Enable For Commenting In Adobe Reader, and then save the PDF.
Start the wizard to initiate a shared review or an email-based review and follow the on-screen instructions. When you’re finished, commenting is enabled in the PDF that you specify for the review.
Well, there is no Comments selection in my toolbar.   Second method is given by
Quickstart: Start an email review
An email-based review lets you track review status and merge received comments into the PDF.
Click Review & Comment and choose Attach For Email Review.
If prompted, enter your identity information to create a reviewer profile.
Follow the on-screen instructions to select the PDF, invite reviewers, and send the email invitation.
If your email application doesn’t send email automatically, you may need to answer alert messages and switch to your email application to finish sending the message
But there is no Review & Comment button to click.
So, can someone tell me, can I still do a simple markup of any PDF?   Even if I have to jump through hoops can I?    I guess I can understand Why Adobe has done away with this feature in their free tool, as they were not getting any revenue off of it, but it greatly diminishes the usefulness of Acrobat Reader and therefore all PDFs for me.
Thanks in advance for your response.

To enable this right you need Acrobat, not the free Reader.
However, starting from Reader X it is possible to add simple markups to any file, unless it has been specifically disallowed by the creator of the file.

Is it possible to add Attachments or Attachments link in Discoverer Report?

Hi,
I am trying to create a discoverer report , in my report i need to view the attachments from FND_LOBS table.
Please guide me how it will be possible .
Thanks in Advance,
Priyanka

You can create a text slide to add to the slideshow. Creat the slide in any text app you'd like or Pages and then convert that page to a PDF. To do so with Lion you'll need to go to Toad's Cellar and download the two files Save PDF to iPhoto 300 DPI.workflow and Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow, and put them in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder.
Then in the application that you're using to create the text slide do a Print ➙ PDF ➙ Safe PDF to iPHoto. The 200 dpi version is sufficient for slideshows. The 300 dpi version is for items to be used in iPhoto books.

In contacts there is the possibility to add a new event, as the birthdays, but they do not appear in iCal. Is there any way to make that possible? It is normal to have a person with his birthday, anniversary and others key dates you want to link to him.

In contacts there is the possibility to add a new event, as the birthdays, but they do not appear in iCal. Is there any way to make that possible? It is normal to have a person with his birthday, anniversary and others key dates you want to link to such person, but the only one shows up is the birthday. How to be able to show all those dates linked to people in the agenda in the iCal?
Thanks

Hi,
I sugggest you try my application, Dates to iCal. It is shareware with a 2 week trial period.
Dates to iCal 2 is a replacement for Apple's birthday calendar for iCal. It has a range of features to allow the user to choose what, and what not, to sync to iCal from Address Book.
As well as automatically syncing birthday dates from Address Book, Dates to iCal 2 can sync anniversary and custom dates. It can set up to five alarms for each date in iCal and can also set different alarms for birthdays and anniversaries. It allows the option of only syncing from one Address Book group. This application also allows for the titles of the events sent to iCal to be modified to the user's preference.

The presentation must be in play for the link to be active.

Your link doesnt work as it is an address for a file on your computer. Use the camera button in the menu bar of a reply to a post to show images.

Is it possible to add a graphics card to the back of my HP

Hello I want to know if it's possible to add a new graphics card to the back of a Laptop not inside of it but on the back of my laptop ??? my graphics Card is a Intel 4000 graphics card is a terrible for gaming TERRIBLE !!!

Not sure where it would go on the back, but no the system is closed. There is no place to insert a graphics card or attach it. You will find some hokey stuff on the internet where people say you can plug a video card in the wireless card slot but those are a hoax at worst and at best they do not tell you that such a thing would not even perform as well as what you have and is likely to damage the motherboard.
