Publish to Print Step-by-Step not capturing images

Does anyone have any suggestions for publishing to a step-by-step guide in Captivate 5 that is usable and looks as good as those from Captivate 4?
When I publish in Captivate 4, icon images are created wherever a highlight box appears in my Captivate source file.  The icons are of the image underneath the highlight box.  These make all the difference in generating a usable step-by-step guide.
HOWEVER, when I publish in Captivate 5, all I get is an icon image of the highlight box itself (without even any transparency applied).
By the way, this happens for Captivate 5 on both Windows XP and Mac OSX platforms.
Here are some screen shots, so that you can better understand what I am trying to describe.
From Captivate 5 (BAD)
From Captivate 4 (GOOD)

No !
I did recieve a message from an Adobe developer to try a work-around for Captivate 5 on the Mac, but that didn't work for either my Mac or Windows XP (Word 2007).  You may want to try it, and report back if you have any success.
The workaround is to set the stroke to 0 and background color to 0% transparency for each highlight box and then export as a step-by-step.
Adobe said they were able to reproduce the problem and would address it in an upcoming patch, but that was months ago.
This and other document exports have been a problem on the Mac since C5 went live.  It has been very detremental to my workflow and productivity as a whole.  I have to export on Windows, then capture and paste each icon manually into the step-by-step.  On the Mac there is no hope. Very frustrating to say the least!
I've used  lots of Adobe's pro products for well over 10 years and have always been an advocate, but not so much anymore, at least where Captivate 5  is concerned. Sorry to dis Adobe, but the turn-around to fix this major disfunction has been absurd.

  • 10.10 Server, SIU NetRestore will not capture image

    So I am currently attempting to capture an image of Yosemite off a Mac Air using target mode.
    The server is also running Yosemite with the latest version of Server.
    Every time I try to use SIU to capture a NetRestore image for deployment it breaks during the "Coping Source Image" portion.
    I have renamed the mounted Target drive to something other than Macintosh HD and several other things.
    Any one else having this issue? recommendations?

    It sounds like you may be running into the problem described in this thread.

  • Firefox 5 with Fedora 15 prints text, but will not print images from web pages.

    I have a Pentium 3 laptop running Fedora 15 and using Firefox 5.0. Firefox will print the text from a website, but will not print the images. It just leaves the spaces blank where the images should be. Print preview shows the same results. I have a AMD desktop and a Pentium 4 laptop running the same software, except that the desktop is running the 64-bit version of Fedora 15 and the second laptop is running the 32-bit version. The desktop prints the text and images without very many problems, but both laptops will print the text, but ''not'' the images.
    As a test, I downgraded Firefox from version 5.0 to 4.0.1 on the Pentium 4 laptop and encountered the same problem. So, since I do not print much from either laptop, I had not before seen this problem. The desktop has never seen it.
    I figure it may be an about:config problem, but I do not know what the parameter may be that is causing the problem.

  • Camera won't capture image

    Camera will not capture images. Purely states 'unable to capture image'. Video camera comes up with coloured lines, no image. Reasonably new handset, have tried rebooting and clearing down all apps. Any ideas??

    Sounds like a hardware problem to me but i could be wrong. Try backing it up and doing a security wipe and see if it helps.

  • How to modify the "To Print" Steps in the Print the Report Dialog box

    From the Crystal Reports Viewer Toolbar, when selecting the Print option,
    a 'Print the Report' Dialog box opens. Is it possible to modify the 'To Print' steps?
    We tried modifying  (commenting-out the To Print steps) in strings_en.js and export.js, but
    when running, the changes do not show up.
    We are using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008, Crystal Reports Viewer Version=10.5.3700.0
    Thank you.

    A warning 1st. Modifying the export.js file is not supported and may lead to all kinds of issues. Also, as soon as somebody else installs an app on that machine, the js files will get overwritten and thus removing your changes.
    Second, I do not think the print dialog is defined in a JS file. In CR 10 I think we built our own print dialog and there is no control over it (e.g.; no exposed APIs).
    I think your best bet will be to create a printer dialog as per your requirements and  launch it from your our own print button.

  • Import steps not specific to Transport Request

    Hi all,
    I need to move 5 Released Transport Request as "Local Change Requests" to another SAP installation.
    I followed two guides to do this:
    SAP BASIS / ABAP - How to Export and Import an External Change Request - YouTube
    How to copy Repository Objects between non-connected SAP systems - ABAP Development - SCN Wiki
    However I have problems creating the Change Request that contains all my requests: if I generate it as Local Change Request it is not available on cofiles and data folders.
    So I created a new Virtual System called M02 and I created a standard consolidation transport link between my original system M01 and the virtual system M02.
    Then I created a new TRANSPORT OF COPIES Transport Request and I selected as target system M02. All objects are correctly added to the new request and the validation is correctly performed.
    However when I release the request on the SOURCE server I get the following error:
    M01#######            My Request Name
    M01        System M01
                 Checks at Operating System Level         05.03.2014 16:48:34    (0) Successfully Completed

                 Selection for Import                     05.03.2014 16:48:47    (0) Successfully Completed
          Import steps not specific to transport request
    "Import steps not specific to transport request" expanded as:
      Feedback after export or import 05.03.2014 16:48:48    (0) Successfully Completed
    I get this message even if I generate the new Change Request from a single Change Request (the first one that we released).
    The cofiles and data files are correctly generated, however the IMPORT on the TARGET server returns an error (invalid data package)
    My question is: is the "Import steps not specific to transport request" message correct, or should I modify something? Why am I getting this message?
    Thank you

    Hi Chinna,
    Its a warning message you can ignore that... if you want to see what exactly the reason for warning  in SE09 --> select the released request --> click the Transport Log Ikon --> select the warning message and click the spects Ikon --> go on expanding you can find the warnings of Objects  in Yellow...
    Hope this helps,
    Sudhakar.

  • Workflow step not executed...

    Hi,
    In my workflow requirement (for VA01), I want to record the status in a custom table as follows;
    Approver id     date   time    status
    ABC                                     Submitted for approval
    ABC                                     Approved (or) Rejected
    So I have created a step called 'update custom status' after the step that sends email to the approver agent whose details stored in another custom table. Then I associated a task with this step which is bound to a custom class / method which has the logic to write the status to the custom table.
    The issue is I do not see this step excuted. I checked in the log.
    What can be wrong ?
    Workflow steps are as follows;
    1. Read the document's net value and store in a variable.
    2. Read the custom table for agents list to whom the doc has to be sent for approval.
    3. Send email for approval.
    4. update custom status.
    In the graphical view, I can see the update custom status step being called (Green link from previous step to this step) but after that no progress.
    Am I missing passing some values ? Or is this step not giving any results ? Whats happening ?
    Details on this update custom status step are as follows;
    A custom task with terminating event set as _WORKITEM defined. (not synchronous)
    A step of type activity defined and bound to the above task with binding done.. (what values should I pass to record the above needed details.)
    In other words, how can I record the status in my custom table ?
    thnks

    Hi
    I think its a background step. If yes, then make it foreground and debug and see what is the problem. Also check for short dumps and turn on the event trace and see the terminating event is getting triggered.

  • Data Package 1 arrived in BW ; Processing :2nd processing step not finished

    I am currently working on BI 7 and trying to pull data from r/3.
    I have succesfully loaded the data into the PSA and now when i try updating the data (only 66 records, its a init run) into an ODS, but the system is taking a long time. On monitor Details in
    Extraction:Errors occured.(with a delta warning sign), and
    Transfer:Data Package 1 arrived in BW ; Processing :2nd processing step not     finished.
    On status Tab its yellow with message : Correct data request; processing running.
    Hope i have made it clear.Please help.

    Hi,
    I will suggest you to check a few places where you can see the status
    1) SM37 job log (give request name) and it should give you the details about the request. If its active make sure that the job log is getting updated at frequent intervals.
    2) SM66 get the job details (server name PID etc from SM37) and see in SM66 if the job is running or not.
    3) RSMO see what is available in details tab. It may be in update rules.
    4) ST22 check if any short dump has occured.
    Once you identify you can rectify the error.
    If all the records are in PSA you can pull it from the PSA to target. Else you may have to pull it again from source infoprovider.
    If its running and if you are able to see it active in SM66 you can wait for some time to let it finish. You can also try SM50 / SM51 to see what is happening in the system level like reading/inserting tables etc.
    If you feel its active and running you can verify by checking if the number of records has increased in the new data table.

  • Job executing the SSIS pkg via cmdExec line step not picking the config details

    Job executing the SSIS pkg via cmdExec line step not picking the config details (of prod server connections/parameters)
    specified in dtsConfig file and by default using the values present in the pkg (which is of dev env).  I have to open the package
    uncheck "Enable package configuration" save the package and check it again and save again then the package will use the prod config.
    What could be the reason? and how to fix this?
    The SSIS pkg and the dtsCofig reside in same folder of network drive.
    SQL Server R2 Ent Ed
    Thanks

    Hi Ramzi24,
    This is the by design behavior. The Dtexec utility will apply the default package configurations for the second time after applying the options specified in the command lines or other package configurations configured in the job step. In this way, as long
    as the default package configurations file is valid, the configurations of it cannot be overwritten.
    If the package is not deployed/installed, the Dtexec utility looks for the XML configurations file according to the file path defined in the Package Configurations Organizer window. In this situation, you need to either disable the package configurations or
    modify the XML file path in the BIDS.
    If the package is already deployed/installed, you need to modify the package as above or re-specify the install folder for the package configurations file.

  • After BIOS update Intel Speed Step not working on Satellite A500

    I upgraded my Satellite A500 PSAM3E model to the newest BIOS 1.50, now the Intel speed step not working!
    My CPU is always 2GHz+, I chagned Power Plan to balanced, but no change... with previous the CPU was around 800 MHz.
    When I try to change Windows 7 power management and set maximum CPU performance to 50 or 80% the system freezes.

    Hey Szaby59,
    Which older BIOS version did you use before update to 1.50?
    I also use the maximum CPU performance option for Eco mode (50%) but this does work properly.
    Furthermore it would be interesting to know if you use factory settings or your own Windows installation. Normally after using Toshiba recovery disk you dont have to install any Toshiba tools anymore. Everything is preinstalled on your notebook.

  • Data packaged 1: arrived in BW; processing: 2nd processing step not yet....

    HI gurus,
    I have a problem with de BW upload from R3 system. Till last week everything worked perfectly and automatic, but we added some companys to the system R3 and now, everyday the job is doing problems and we have to launch manually.
    All data is transferred correctly to BW but then is not posted on PSA and in the details we have the following error message:
    data packaged 1: arrived in BW; processing: 2nd processing step not yet finished
    Have someone some idea about it?
    THanks in advance.

    Yes, it's like you wrote. When i execute manually it works ok. The problem is when it is working automatically in background, the daily work.
    I don't have any dump (st22) in BW or R3. I checked also WE05, BD87, SM58 and others and everything looks fine.
    thanks for the answer..
