Quiz results not displaying in swf file

I am creating an interactive cd which basically runs a blank
projector which then loads in various swf files from fscommand
folder as and when required.
Part of the CD is a quiz - created using one of the standard
flash templates. When this is loaded into the main projector as a
swf file it runs perfectly until it gets to the "results page" - at
this point it returns the blank templates e.g Answered = 0.
If you export the quiz as a projector file it runs fine and
gives the results as expected too.
Is there a way to make it run properly as a swf?

Hey Arunbe,
To be honest I'm pretty new to the Action Script side of
things - I'm not actually very sure where and how I check that the
variables are declared properly?!
I would really appreciate any pointers you could give me in
this area!!
I have attached some code from the quiz - it might not be the
right thing though!
Thanks for any help you can offer!!!

Spreadsheet component - bottom grid line not displaying in swf file

Hi,
I'm having an issue with the spreadsheet component. I'm using the "Ignore blank cells in Values" option on the behavior tab. This works fine. The problem I'm having is the bottom grid line in the spreadsheet table is not displaying in the swf file. The bottom grid line displays correctly in Preview mode....but is not displaying in the swf file. Anyone have any ideas on why?
Thanks

I'm not sure if I've interpreted your response correctly. Our entire dashboard app is built on the swf files being called from the URL buttons. We are not using HTML files. Are you saying that if I do a file export to HTML that the swf file generated from this will display the bottom grid lines?
I noticed that the spreadsheet component grid lines display correctly in the swf when not checking the ignore blank cells option in the behavior tab.
So what would be our options here.....either uncheck the display grid lines for the spreadsheet component to not display the grid lines at all, or do not use the ignore blank cells option in the behavior tab to display a fixed number of rows each time?
Thanks for the response, Matt.

Random Quiz Slides not displaying in published files when on server

version 4.0
Output - swf\htm
Hello
Have been working on some elearning now locally for a while which combines straight slides then ends with random quiz slides.
Have published locally to c:\ drive and tested the swf\htm files and they play and display fine . However have now published the files to our organisations elearning server so everyone can access and played them back. All works fine till you get to the first random question slide - its just a green blank screen ! The green is the same as the skin I have on the project as a whole.
So basically the problem must be on the server. I have no idea what to try !!
thanks in advance
ps - just adding this bit, I meant to put it in quizzing forum but didn't . Can't see how to move it now
Also just tried adding a normal quiz slide and that displays fine - its when I am using the random quiz slides from a pool. Thanks

thanks for this - feel a bit thick now !
I had no idea they created separate files. That serves me right for not working in separate folders when I am testing and working in the root of the directory (with about 50 other cp files in it !)as I missed it.
Mystery solved - thanks again !

ExternalInterface not working when swf file is embed inside a dynamically cloned DIV element.

ExternalInterface not working when swf file is embed inside a dynamically cloned DIV element.
It seems that flash movie is identifed as 'undefined' inside document.
//a statically placed div
var staticdiv=document.getElementById('PropDiv');
//dynamically placed div with object tag
var dynDiv =staticdiv.cloneNode( true );
var xD=50;
var yD=50;
if(dynDiv)
dynDiv.style.display = "block";
dynDiv.innerHTML="<object classid=" + "\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\"" + "codebase=" +

                "</object>";
   dynDiv.style.top=50;
   dynDiv.style.left=100;
document.body.appendChild(dynDiv);
In above situation communication is not establised when a funtion which is retruning boolean is called from flash using
ExternalInterfcae.call.The return value of this function is getting as false inside flash.But the value is true in javascript.
if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1) {
   return window[movieName];
} else {
   return document[movieName];
window["external"] is returning as 'undefined'.
Please give a solution to solve this.

Note that you have different file names for the object (images/banner.swf) and the embed (images/banner1.swf)
You also placed the embed in the middle of a param tag and nested all param tags.
Because you didn't include a MIME type and the object doesn't have a classid for an ActiveX control for IE, I'm not sure what Firefox will be using.<br />
The object doesn't have a data attribute to specify the file.<br />
A separate embed is only needed when you specify a classid in the object.
<pre><nowiki><div class="bannercontainer">
<object width="940" height="445" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="images/banner.swf" >
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="movie" value="images/banner.swf" />
</object>
</div></nowiki></pre>

Bridge CS3 Does Not Display Pentax PEF files

Hi,
I am running Vista and have Bridge CS3 installed on my Notebook. I updated Bridge to v 2.1.1.9 and have added Camera RAW 4.5. My problem is that Bridge does not display Pentax RAW files from a K20 camera (its on the supported list). DNG and JPG files show correctly. Bridge only shows a PEF Icon for each image. When you double click on the Icon, the file opens in Camera RAW 4.5 correctly and also in Photoshop CS3.
Can anyone tell me what I need to do to see the PEF images in Bridge?
Thanks
Keith

Revisit the download page, look at the instructions, and make sure you unzipped ACR to the correct folder, and you don't have an ACR in two places.

Display a .swf file in the Gallery example

Is it possible to display a .swf file instead of a .jpeg in
the Gallery example? Any help would be appreciated.

You "CAN" do it, but it would probably be kind of clunky. A
detailed region rewrites the code and in theory you should be able
to write in a new SWF. I don't mean, write in a new "location" but
re-write out the entire tag.
Hope this helps.

Versioing: CVS Status not displaying new repository files

I did some quick searches and did not find this in the forum. Hopefully it is not a duplicate. If so, please point me to the original thread.
We have a multi-developer project underway with Creator. We are using CVS for the shared source repository. When one developer checks in a new file and other developer's use the CVS Status option, the new files do not display as 'Needs Checkout'. Of course, any files the user already has checked out display with the appropriate status but new repository files are missing.
Since we use CVS extensively, right now the developers communicate the new files and then check them out via command line CVS. We have the IDE set in 'expert' mode, etc.
Is this a know bug or is there some setting for the IDE to get it to display files with status 'Needs Checkout' from the cvs repository?

As per the documentation at:
http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.22/cvs_10.html
Based on what operations you have performed on a checked out file, and what operations others have performed to that file in the repository, one can classify a file in a number of states. The states, as reported by the status command, are:
Needs Checkout
Someone else has committed a newer revision to the repository. The name is slightly misleading; you will ordinarily use update rather than checkout to get that newer revision.
...Thus the 'cvs status' command works only on local files and 'Needs Checkout', from cvs documentation itself, is a misnomer and is really more like 'Needs Update'.
In Creator (and NetBeans), the nodes on the cvs explorer actually map to physical files and thus do not display nodes for files that may only be in the server. But you do raise an interesting question though; creator could display virtual nodes for files not in local workspace thereby providing a preview before actual checkout...

Call and display Xcelsius SWF file from an SAP Transaction

Hello Experts ,
Could you please suggest if it is possible to Call and display Xcelsius SWF file
from an SAP Transaction and if Yes how can this be achieved.
Regards ,
Jerin.

Jerin,
It is possible to embed a Xcelsius model into an SAP WebTemplate (Anil promised to write a blog about this very soon). After that you can include the WebTemplate in the GUI menu, Role menu or Portal.

Quiz Results Analyzer results not displaying correctly

We are using Adobe Captivate 6 and posting quizzes to a local server (configured with the .php files.) When we review quiz results using the Quiz Results Analyzer, some of the data is correctly reported. However, the Pass/Fail is not working right (either everybody who takes the quiz passes, or everybody fails.) Also, we are not seeing a total score.
Is there any tutorial for correctly configuring all of the quiz preferences, so that we get the results we are looking for?

Thank you for the link. I have viewed this video in the past.
The issue I'm having is that, in spite of setting the the quiz options for reporting, the data that is received in the xml files is not correct, therefore, it is not being correctly summarized in the Quiz Results Analyzer.
(It would also seem that the screen name I set here is not retaining its modifications.)

Fonts Not appearing in swf file

When I compile my swf file from flash, the dynamic text
fields disappear completely.
I know this sounds like a n00b problem, but I've done dynamic
text a million times. I've never had this happen. I'm embedding the
characters from the fonts in the preferences for the text field.
I've manually written the characters I want to embed as well to try
and override the character selector in flash. I've reinstalled
flash. I've reduced the number of fonts loaded in my system. I've
changed the font to other types to see if it's an issue with the
font. I've tried to toggle display as html and selectability. None
of this makes a difference. I've also ensured that my variables are
loading properly (list variables in the debug pulldown on export)
so there should actually be something to load.
As a test, I tried to break apart my text. As with all text,
you need to break it twice to render the text as a bitmap. On the
second break, the text disappears. This should not happen either.
This tells me that flash, though it's obviously getting the
vector information for the fonts so it can display them properly,
some level of the application isn't getting the information to
render it when I either export the file or when I try to break
apart my text.
Sounds like a permissioning issue.... so I fixed permissions
on my mac. Still have the problem.
Here's a link to the file in the wild. If you want a link to
the xml file, let me know. I'm getting the data from it, so it
really shouldn't be the issue. There should be a large number in
the price area of the first order option, and all options should
have text in the burgundy rounded corner box at the bottom.
http://www.omaxtra.com/Can_Help/rheumatoid_landing.html
I'm developing on a PowerMac G5 2.0 completely patched to OS
10.4.8.
Perhaps I'm over-thinking this. Any thoughts?

I never did figure out what the problem was. I sucked it up
and exported it as a flash 7 swf. Thankfully I wasn't using
anything from flash 8 in that particular instance.
I have since embedded fonts in flash 8 files with much
success. All of it for programatically set (AS) dynamic text.
I'd be more than happy to try and help identify common
variables (perhaps typefaces used, etc) with you to figure out what
combination of things makes this bug appear. But other than that,
unless you're using specific code from flash 8 or some of the new
effects, I'd suggest rendering it in 7.
Good luck, and PLEASE do let us know if you ever get a
resolution.
Happy new year!

Window.print() not working for swf file in webpage?

I have used the javascript window.print() function to print a webpage. But when i click a button to invoke this function the swf file stops then the screenshot is taken and then it resumes playing,, thus resulting in a blank page to be printed... What to do??

Since it is not clear what your intentions are for wanting to print the screen, you could try just using the Print Screen of your keyboard (pc) and then paste the resulting screen capture into an image using Photoshop or Fireworks.

Media files not appearing in SWF file

I have set up a few interactive elements in an InDesign page. Some drop down menus, buttons and such like. I Have also imported a small MP3 audio file and video clip – they aren't large files. Everything works as it should when viewed in the EPUB viewer. However when I export to SWF or an interactive PDF neither the audio or video clip appear – let alone play. The other slideshows and animations work fine. I have double checked the files and all the settings without success. I'm up to date with the latest versions of InDesign (2014.2 release) and Acrobat etc
Anyone have a solution or experiencing similar problems – any info gratefully received.

If the media files (both audio and video) do not have a poster image applied, there will not be a visual representation of these files in the exported PDF or SWF. That does mean that the media files aren't in the export, if you click where they are suppose to be, you should be able to activate them. Through the media panel in Indesign, select media, and choose a standard or custom poster.
Edit: although a poster image can be applied to an audio file, this works with PDF export, but during SWF export, the poster still does not display. The workaround for SWF export and audio, create a button with an action to play a sound.

Preview.app will not display some PDF files

Since upgrading Yosemite I have found that Preview.app will not display some PDF documents, the documents open but all the pages are blank. This is a big issue as my work involves reviewing documents that are all in the PDF format. Strangely some PDFs work properly but I haven't been able to determine any common factors among the documents that work versus those that don't work. The problem documents do open correctly in Adobe Acrobat Reader but Reader takes over viewing of PDF container fields I have in several important FileMaker Pro 13 databases. Acrobat in the FileMaker databases for me is just as much of a problem as not viewing PDFs in Preview.
After searching the forums I followed suggestion in a post to try using version 7.0 of Preview.app (the version that worked under Mavericks) but that is also showing blank pages. I have noticed that the PDFs which open as blank pages also display that way in Finder and Spotlight previews. Could this mean that I have some kind of OS level issue here and not a Preview.app issue? Perhaps Finder and Spotlight use Preview.app to generate the preview.
I have posted this in a bug report to Apple but in the meantime I would welcome any suggestions or workarounds to try.

The built-in PDF renderer has trouble with that file. You might get better results with Adobe Reader.

Quiz result not showing up in Edge

Hi there Edgers
Really hoping someone can help me out with this problem. I've used Redesigns code(Seen Below) to design a quiz in Animate.
I have two problems, when the first question is answered, it skips to the 3rd question instead of the 2nd. I am not sure why this is as I have have checked for overlapping buttons, there are none and it does not occur on any other questions, only the first. Second problem is the quiz reult is not showing up at the end, I have the "grade" and "result" divs in my timeline but when they are reached they do not change to display the quiz results.
Help would be much appeciated

As a side note, this quiz appears at the end of a 8 section mulitmedia learning environment. The code obove is the only code present in the "creationcomplete" window, the rest is done in the timeline.
George

In you if statement you need to change the if statement from i=7 to i==7; when you compare you need the double equal sign.
var FinalScoreHolder = q1 + q2 + q3 + q4 + q5 +q6 +q7;
          if (i==7){
                    //var FinalScoreHolder = q1 + q2 + q3;
                    sym.$("grade").html("You scored "+FinalScoreHolder+"%");
                    if (FinalScoreHolder >= 90) {
                    // play the timeline from the given position (ms or label)
                    sym.play("pass");
                    } else {
                    // play the timeline from the given position (ms or label)
                    sym.play("fail");

Flash Controls Not Displaying in Embedded File

I'm having troubles with embedding a Flash SWF file. On my
original website, I can see the video fine. When I try embedding
the SWF to another, the controls do not display. Any thoughts on
getting controls to display when embedding?

Okay – I think I'm making progress :-)
In my FLA file, I have a FLVPlayback component in my library.
When I export the video to an SWF it provides me with 2 SWF files:
the flash movie and the skin. With those 2 files, I also upload my
FLV file to my server.
On my media server, the video displays correctly (here's the
link to it:
http://jonah.eastern.edu/ben/ben_jump.html)
However, when I try embedding the video onto a different
sight and server, just the video displays. I completely understand
that there's 2 different SWF's, but how do I import the video
correctly, so the video playback is displaying correctly when
embedded on other/external sites.
Is there a way to attach/import the SWF for the skin? I'm
just trying to embed video's like YouTube and I'm failing horribly!
Thank you so much!
