What is the correct way to determine the width and height of a captivate movie at runtime in AS3?

I have an entire layout framework built and one of the controls is a GUIControlWrapper with every conceivable option for wrapping and aligning (uniform scale, stretch, stretchwidthonly_aligntop/middle/bottom, stretchheightonly_alignleft/center/right, etc.) non-framework controls (i.e. controls that are display objects, but do not inherit from my layout framework's base GUIControl display class).
Generally this wrapper obtains the object size by calling wrapped_control.getRect( wrapped_control ), to obtain the object's rectangle in its own coordinate system (i.e. its unscaled or original size), and it clips this rectangle to the origin by setting the left and top properties to zero.
The problem I'm encountering only affects captivate movies. When I used my framework's uniform scale option, there ends up being a gap at the bottom exactly the size of the captivate movie's playbar (which is visible), which indicates to me that the captivate movie's getRect and height properties are overreporting the height.
If I use the captivate movie's "cpMovieWidth" and "cpMovieHeight" properties instead, then the uniform scale results in perfect alignment. The captivate movies "contentHeight" variable is 38px smaller than "cpMovieHeight", and the playbar height is 40, which is about that 38px difference.
So my question is, why do captivate movies' getRect and height methods report the wrong height for the movie, such that if you actually scaled the clip based on that height to fit the stage size, there is a gap about the size of the playbar?

I'm sure it's because the movie controls are a seperate swf. CP supplies you with the variable that works as you've found.

Animated gif within Captivate movie?

I'm trying to insert an animated gif into a Captivate movie,
but when I do, the gif doesn't animate -- it just shows the first
frame. Is there a trick to getting these animated gifs to actually
play within the Captivate movie, without having to do a "rough
recreate" of the gif in Flash? I've looked around for a setting
within the app to address this, but couldn't find it, and according
to my search of the archives no one else has asked this question.
Thanks in advance!
Maureen

Hi all
In addition to fellow ACE Steve's good advice, note that you
may notice that the gif looks just dandy if viewed on a web page
before importing. Then after importing it may appear to have had a
triple shot of espresso. This is because the frame rate of
Captivate is normally 30 FPS. It's not uncommon at all to see .GIF
files with a frame rate of 10. The answer? Either slow Captivate
down or speed up the .GIF before bringing it into Captivate.
Cheers... Rick

Captivate movie clips looping in Flash

I've read the discussions on the forum, but nothing seems to
be able to stop a captivate 2 movie clip from looping when brought
into Flash. I exported the captivate movie with the default values,
converted it to a movie clip in Flash8 so I could resize it,
brought the movie clip into the Flash movie by dragging it to the
stage. Everything looks great, but I can't stop the clip from
looping. Stop commands placed within the movie clip seem to have no
effect nor do commands put on the main timeline.
Thanks for the help.

Hi there
Hopefully someone here will have an answer for you. In the meantime you might also wish to post this question in the forums for Acrobat.

Adding a Loading Animation to a Captivate movie for use in a RoboHelp Project?

Hello all:
I'm inserting SWFs (built in Captivate 5) into Robohelp topics (using RoboHelp 9, publishing to WebHelp Pro output). These topics hold only the SWFs, so I've published the SWFs to autoplay when opened.
The problem is this: when I publish my RoboHelp project, my Captivate movies display as image icons (see screenshot). There is no loading animnation or screenshot to indicate that the Captivate movie works. If I wait a few seconds (variable, depending on file size of the SWF), the movie will appear and start to play. I'm concerned that my user will think the file is broken and leave the page.
How can I enable a loading animation (or even a loading image) to show my user that there is, in fact, content on the page when the topic loads? I'd like to keep the auto-play functionality, if possible.

The best option is to break out the words because it gives you the most control. However, if the two words you want to glow are next to each other you can use the Sequence Text behavior.
Select the text and apply Text Animation/Sequence Text to the layer. In the behaviors tab, click on the Add parameter and select Glow/Color. This will create a parameter that you can assign to a character, word, line or custom area.
Now you'll need to add several parameters so repeat the above step adding parameters for Glow/Opacity, Glow/Blur, and Glow/Radius. You might even want to change the color of the font for those two words. If so, add a parameter for Face/Color.
Once you have all the parameters added, change the Traversal parameter to Custom. Change the Select parameter to Custom. Use the Start parameter to determine the beginning of the "glow" area, and the End parameter to fix the end of it. Set the Spread to 0 so there is no spillage of the glow to the words on either side.
Now adjust the color, blur and radius of the glow just as you would if you were adding it to the entire paragraph.

Controlling Captivate movies from a parent Flash movie

Hello, i am in the works of onverting my old AS2 code, for controlling Captivate movies lodaded into a Flash container, over to AS3 becasue of the transition to Captivate 5. There were some weird issues in AS2 and Captivate 3 which i fortunately vere able to solve when i first made this container. Now i am getting weird and unpredictable results when trying to set the appropriate variables in the Captivate move. The main culprit is: rdcmndRewindAndStop, it does indeed rewind the movie, but... it starts playing again... Could anyone be so kind to give me the reason why or better even provide me with a solution to this unneeded change, its quite annoying, and no rdcmndPause does not help, not before rdcmndRewindAndStop or after, the movie is happily trottling along...
sincerely
Frustrated developer with a bloody short deadline

Hello and thanks for replying, yes it worked! But... we have to manually edit 40+ files to make this stupid thing to work... Do you know if there is any way i can put those scripts in a flash object, or better even modify the movie from the parent container? This is making our production process way longer than is affordable tbh, a single project consists usually of over 100 captivate movies, and we simply can't manually edit each and every one of them.
I wish i could get my hands on a Captivate developer ;p

Navigating a Captivate Movie

Hello
I'm trying to integrate a Captivate (swf) into my Director
environment so when the movie stops playing the playhead jumps to a
marker.
Can someone please tell me how to do this.
Any help much appreciated.

Hi Aus_Steph
There are two ways to approach it.
1. When you publish a Captivate movie as .SWF format, you
have the ability to Export HTML. This results in two files. The
Captivate .SWF and a .HTM page that is used to display the .SWF. So
in RoboHelp (RoboHelp HTML assumed here) you would right click the
folder where you want the Captivate movie and choose import. Then
you would navigate to and select the .HTM file that was produced by
Captivate.
OR
2. From RoboHelp while editing a topic, you can click Insert
> RoboDemo Movie... (or Insert > Multimedia) and navigate to
the raw .SWF file Captivate produced.
I think the big deciding factor here is whether you want the
entire page to contain the Captivate movie, or if it will appear
perhaps tucked away inside a DHTML drop down or something where
other items are on the page too. I'd go with option 1 for the whole
page or option 2 if I were including the .SWF along with other page
content.
Hopefully this helps... Rick :)

Captivate movie in FrameMaker

I'm looking for information/instructions on how to integrate a Captivate version 3 movie into FrameMaker version 8. If anyone has suggestions, I'd appreciate your help.

Mike,
Thanks for your reply. I tried out putting the Captivate movie in FrameMaker before converting to PDF, and also tried your suggestion to put the movie in the PDF manually. I'm in agreement with you that your suggestion works better.

Is it possible to access an object inside a Captivate movie from Javascript?

For example, my JavaScript performs some processing, based on which a particular button inside the movie needs to be hidden. Can I access a particular button from JavaScript to be able to do this? If not, then is it possible to be notified inside the Captivate movie, when a variable has been set by JavaScript? I notice that the JavaScript interface in Captivate 8 provides an event (CPAPI_VARIABLEVALUECHANGED) which fires when the value of a variable inside the Captivate movie changes. If there was a similar event which would fire inside the Captivate movie, when a variable changes then I could have set a variable using JavaScript and hidden a particular button using an advanced action, when the event for that variable changing fires inside the Captivate movie.
Articulate Storyline has an event which gets triggered when the value of a variable changes (either because of JavaScript executing or otherwise). If something similar was possible in Captivate, it would open up many possibilities.
I am evaluating Captivate 8.
Thanks in advance for any help.

hi
Yes. its possible but its not recom
you can set in production system to allow changes to obj rsa1->transport connection->click 'object changeability', and look for object type , and set to changeable.

Resizing the wrapped swing component inside the javafx stage

I have a customized swing component & need to wrap it in javafx stage. But as & when the javafx scene resizes, I want to resize the swing component accordingly.
One way of resizing this is to scale the swing component. But is there any other way or layout to do it efficiently.

Prevent Captivate movies from autoplaying

Hi I wonder if you can help. I would like to prevent my Captivate movies from automatically starting when the page loads. For accessibility reasons it is always better to allow the user to control video so that users of screen readers do not get confused by an unexpected voiceover.
However I don't want to re export all the Captivate movies and was wondering if there is a quick fix I can do to the code like autoplay="false"?
Thanks for your help

Deleting Inserted Captivate Movies from RoboHelp 7?

How do you delete Captivate movies that you insert into
RoboHelp 7? It seems like it should be easy, but I don't see how.
Thanks,
Tom

Thanks Rick. My problem was that I was trying to delete the
swf file directly, rather than deleting the topic the Captivate
movie was inserted on. After deleting the topic (or companion page)
like you said, the swf is removed automatically.
On another note, I was reading an instructional article by
John Daigle on Captivate 2 and RoboHelp.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/captivate/articles/cp_rh_integration_06.html
In the article, he describes a workaround for getting the player
controls and border to appear when you insert a Captivate movie
into RoboHelp (a Captivate movie that was created outside of
RoboHelp). However, I've found that when I import the Captivate swf
file with the word _skin in it (there are a couple of swf files
Captivate outputs), the borders and player controls appear
automatically without the workaround. Is this a bug that Captivate
3 and RoboHelp 7 fixed from the previous version?
