Restart slide Widget

Hi all,
Thanks for looking.
I was just curious if there was a way to create a widget that would just replay the current slide.  Essentially, at the end of each slide, I want to give the user the option to go to the next slide, go back a slide, or restart the current slide.
Now, I know theoretically they could just go back and then forward, but I would prefer to streamline that for users and just have a restart slide button if possible.
I did search around this forum and google a bit, and was surprised not to really come up with anything.
Also, as a side question, has anyone else experienced strange issues when placing widgets on master slides?  I tried to place a "Next" button on a master slide and then link all the slides up to the master slide, but when I do captions on a timeline within a slide randomly pause the slide and the button isn't always functional.  I figure out I could make the button functional by making sure it was on "top", but that still doesn't explain why it would stop a slide midway through with no user interaction.
Thanks again!
Patrick

I love it...such a creative (yet simple) solution.
I used another solution suggested to me (by Rick I believe) when I raised this same question some time ago.
Insert a blank slide between each slide of the project, starting before the first slide you want to "view again". Set the display time on the blank slide to 0.1. Now when the user clicks the "back" button on the slide they want to view again they will jump back to the previous slide, but only for 0.1 sec and go straight on to the slide they were just looking at.
There is a slight (0.1 sec) pause which you may not like...but try it and see what you think. This is another option for you to consider.
Also, bear in mind, both of these solutions is going to almost double the number of slides in your project.
Of course what would be nice, is for Adobe to consider the customer and create a "back to start of same slide" option.
In meantime...long live creative (yet simple) solutions.

  • How to add a slider widget to Adobe Muse form?

    I have a form at http://www.magneticmarketing.me/logo-design.html that includes a large section that requires someone to rate their company between 1-10 in like 14 categories. This looks very chaotic as I currently have this as a general form format. I would like to run all of these into slider widgets? Is there any way to integrate this into the Adobe Muse form? If not, does anyone know of any third party form providers that would be good for this task?

    Hi
    You can try to use composition and then insert form in target area , where user on click to trigger can access the form but this would require to create separate forms for specific sections.
    Or you can create forms and then change action url of the form which on submission will take to different page where the user will fill out next form and so on.
    In both cases you have to create separate forms and use them like one single form.
    Thanks,

  • Problems with the Spry Content Slider Widget in DW6

    Hello there,
    I have been wrestling with a problem I'm having with the Spry Content Slider Widget that I hope someone has an answer for.
    I have 2 widgets on a page, but the problem I'm having occurs whether there is 1 or 2 on the page.
    No matter how many slides I have in the widget, it only shows the first 3. The 2 widgets per page occurs on every html page (9 in total.)
    In there a setting in the inline or linked .js code limiting the number of slides to 3?
    In addition to these widgets, I also use a DWUser_EasyRotator Slider on the pages, and both the easyRotator and Spry Widgets launch a fancyBox jQuery Gallery. Tho it's a possibility, I don't think the mixing of sliders/js is the problem, as I was having the problem with the Spry Widget showing only the first 3 upon the first insert of the Widget.
    Any suggestions on settings I should be aware of, as regards the Widget, would be greatly appreciated… (;

    On line 66 of your code, you have an extra </head> tag that doesn't belong.    Remove that and validate your code again.

  • Informatics Slider Widget

    Hi I have used informatics slider widget may I add this is cool. My only problem is it does not do fractions. I have set the slider max count to 6. I've added another a variable to show the slide counter in movement. I've also added another variable which I used in a conditional action which should change to the fractions I want to use but this does not work. I'm not sure if this logic is correct or not? Any advice much appreciated. Thanks

    Take a look at this tutorial by Tristan that explains how Variable Binding works with a Component widget like the Slider or Rotator widgets:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDijYxd3WyQ&src
    You can control how much one object slides in comparison to the other via the length of their respective tracks.  So for example if the slide being used as the Handle has a track that is 100 pixels in length and it is linked to drive another slider that has a track of 300 pixels in length, but they are both bound to the same user variable, then moving one the main slider handle 100 pixels will move the other object 300 pixels.
    You can use this same principle to get your fractional differences.
    Another alternate method that is a bit trickier and more advanced is to use the Component widget's ability to be an Interactive widget that can evaluate Success or Failure on every frame.  You just need to turn on Evaluation in the widget properties dialog and set it to evaluate Continually.  Then you need to use its On Success event to execute an Advanced Action that manipulates the value of one user variable in relation to another.  For example, if you have one slider bound to VariableA and the other bound to VariableB, you could have the slider evaluating continually and executing an action that used an Expression to multiply VariableA's value by some amount and then Assign that value to VariableB.
    Like I said...it's a bit advanced.  So you might struggle to pull that off.  But it's all possible with Captivate and the Component widgets.

  • Using keyframes to automate a rig slider widget in Motion 5.

    I'm trying to automate a rig slider widget with keyframes, but any time I try to set a value for a keyframe, the value changes for the entire object instead of for just at that point in time.
    Here's the background:
    I set up the rig to make a bunch of pieces appear to explode. (Could have used "repel from" behavior, but wanted more control.) It uses a slider widget, values ranging from 0 to 100. At value 0, all the pieces are together, and they form the intact, un-exploded object. At value 100, the pieces are all positioned away from each other, and the object appears to have exploded.
    Now, when I move the slider by hand, it performs the intended motion. But using keyframes to do this motion over time does not work. I'm able to change the value of keyframes, but doing so changes the values globally — that is, editing one keyframe makes any other keyframes drawn inherit that value.
    This is what it looks like broken down:
    • First, I'll draw a keyframe at value 0, time 00:01;
    • then I go to draw the keyframe at value 100, time 00:30;
    • it creates a new keyframe at value 100 and time 00:30, but...
    • the 0 keyframe at time 00:01 mysteriously jumps to value 100 (though stays in its place in time), and the entire keyframe graph becomes a horizontal line, thus eliminating the would-be change over time.
    In short, I can't animate the slider because changing a keyframe changes all values to that one value.
    Any ideas on what's going on here?
    I'm thinking it may have something to do with the fact that the paramaters modified by the slider are all "ramp" behaviors of objects. The slider controls both the start and end values of the "ramp" behavior, but I set it so the start and end values are always the same. (In effect, using ramp as a means to modify X and Y positions.)

    Widgets allow you to distill complex motions or animations into a simple interface. For instance, you can link together and control the values of numerous related parameters into a single slider. That's what I was doing.
    The problem, I now see, is that I was trying to connect values of one of the prefab behaviors. Those already happen over time, so I think it just tripped Motion up.
    I circumvented that by relinking the widget directly to the position values of the objects, rather than linking it to the behaviors, which in turn controlled the position values.
    To answer your last question more directly, I was animating the position parameters of objects. The objects were bezier shapes that, when pieced together, formed a line of text. The effect I was going for was to have the text start in (apparently) one piece — then have the pieces suddenly move outward from the center of the frame to give the effect of exploding. In the end, the easiest way to do this was to use a slider on a rig (after mapping it to start and end points for each piece). When done correctly, dragging the slider to value 0 brought all the pieces together to form the whole word. Dragging the slider to value 100 made all the pieces "explode" out.
    This also makes it easy to come back and make changes to the rate of the "explosion" motion. Which was important, because there were about 60 pieces. Redrawing each path individually would be too much work.

  • Dashboard widgets not working. I trash the dashboard .plist and redo all widgets then after a restart. Widget not working again.

    Dashboard widgets not working. I trash the dashboard .plist and redo all widgets then after a restart. Widget not working again.

    Yes hello,
    My widgets are not working as well, i looked on forms and it seams that the 10.5 update fix there problems. I also did an archive and install from 10.4... One of the major reasons i purchased the upgrade was to use widgets to clip parts of safari, i'am totaly bummed because all forums i find end with the question un answered. i'am a little bummed becuase there are a couple of things that worked with 10.4 that are not working in 10.5 (like some meg moives not playing.
    i do not wish to create a new account because i do not want to reinstall all my software, photoshop, final cut, dvd studio pro.. etc.
    i hope to find the fix some how.
    I have opened up the console application and when i select widgets load or delete them i see no activity in the console. I'am not familiar with the console app. or command lines.
    is there any more info on this matter? is there any support from apple?
    Thankyou

  • Key framed slider widgets "jump" all over the place.

    I am really struggling, and losing credibility at work with the time this is taking, to get consistent results key framing slider widgets.
    I have a slider widget to which I have set up and defined parameter states for multiple tags. For simplicity say I have:
    - three tags at 0, 50 and 100.
    - range min and max set to 0 to 100
    - interpolation linear for all three tags.
    I then set a key frame for that slider widget:
    - set first keyframe a frame one, adjust slider to the first tag at zero.
    - go to another frame and move slider to the middle point at 50. This action sets a keyframe but I notice that the 0 tag is still highlighted in blue.
    - I go to yet another frame, and adjust the slider to 100. The tag at the 0 point is still showing in blue.
    Now play over the range containing the key frames.
    Does it cycle through the three defined tag snap shots?
    No.
    Am I pulling my hair out?
    Yes.
    Anyone have any guidance to help spare people the site of seeing me bald. :-)
    Thanks,

    Any ideas on this?
    I think I might have made my presentation too complicated. Here is another shot at it.
    - I defined a slider widget with three tags and on the order of five parameters assigned to it for a shape which will function as a button.
    -  I set each of the tags to linear interpolation.
    - I select each tag and set my parameters as desired (snap shots)
    - I set my range for the tags to zero to two, one for each tag.
         * tag at zero, opacity of shape is zero.
         * tag at one - opacity 100% and outline of shape is medium grey.
         * tag at two - opacity 75% and outline gets a treatment of blue border and larger width.
    - I then key frame the slider to move between the values of zero and two and I do not get the behaviors defined above for the color and width of the shape outline. I do notice that there is a gold capital R within a goldish square to the left of the opacity parameter in the inspector for the slider widget. It is not there for the parameters for the shape outline width and color.
    What I notice as I step through frames is that the opacity parameter seems to be working but the color of a shape does not change. The first tag is still blue (highlighted) which is the color that the shape is staying at.
    I think Motion is highly finicky, buggy and too idiosyncratic. I started a new project from scratch and made just one button. It worked. Then I modified the color at one of the. But this broke the animation. It’s like all of the tweened key frame around the tag were as before but just around the modified tag it behaved per the new modification. So the animation “jumped”.
    I deleted the tags and started over leaving the keyframes in place. Now it works.
    Crazy if I have to redo a hugely complex project. I’m hoping I’m missing something basic that someone can enlighten me to.
    Thanks in advance for any guidance offered.

  • How can I make a image slider using Dreamweaver? Is there any image slider widget I could use?

    I was browsing through the web when I saw a website which had a really cool image slider. I don't have any idea of how to develop anything similar, but I was wondering if maybe dreamweaver had any widget that has already been developed by someone else that is open source for everyone else to use. Is there anything any?

    Ken is referring to a "roll your own" slider that works great. There are lots of those.
    None of those are built in to Dreamweaver. None of those will give you a panel within Dreamweaver with which you can build them.
    Project Seven does sell widgets that are Dreamweaver extensions.
    Adobe is offering another one for free (and you get additional function if you buy it).
    Extend Studio offers Power Slider (with a free trial).
    And there is Nivo Slider.
    These are extensions that plug in and extend what Dreamweaver can do.

  • Muse CC2014 Widget Installation - Before/After Image Slider

    I purchased the "Before/After Image Slider" widget a few weeks ago, but I hadn't installed it yet. Now I can't find it, so I re-downloaded it from the "Install Using Adobe Extension Manager" section. However, it is not downloading correctly as a .mulib file. Instead, it is downloading the Adobe Extension Manager and only displaying my Fireworks CS6 add-ons - not my Muse CC2014 add-ons. Does anyone know how to access it?

  • Muse widget selection dial or left and right slider selector

    Hello, I am looking for a muse widget that lets a user slide a lever left and right or In a circle like a dial to make a selection.  For example, if the range is from 300 to 700, the user will slide the lever on the left and on the right to say he likes the range of 450 to 500.  How do I search for that type of widget?  Does it exist?  Thank you so much, Stacy

    Actually I do not have a shop.  .  I was looking for a range slider widget
    with handles on the left and right side.   That was just a sample.   I
    found some code online but I'm not a programmer.  The slider let you say
    select 10 for a min and 59 for a max. And the slider range was from -100 to
    +100.  Does that make more sense.

  • Music volume slider shows "speaker" setting during "earphone" playback

    A volume setting is stored for playback through the iPhone's speaker, and another for when earphones are plugged in.
    I have noticed since updating to iOS 5.1 that the volume slider in the Music app sometimes displays the "speaker" level during "earphone" playback when switching between the two modes.
    Although the slider displays the incorrect volume level, the playback is at the earphone setting's volume, not the displayed volume.
    N.B. I have an iPhone 3GS, and the performance of the Music app has degraded with each iOS update; this seems to be due to the core software growing more complex. It is possible that there is just a very long delay between loading the Music app, it recognising the earphones are plugged in, and the volume slider widget being updated accordingly. I will report back with more clarification after more observation.

    *** UPDATE ***
    THIS PROBLEM IS NOT SOLVED.
    I thought it was purely a performance issue that was delaying the update of the volume slider. However, I've recently observed the slider displaying the speaker volume permanently with the headphones plugged in.
    Locking and unlocking the screen caused the slider to refresh.
    "Discussions" does not allow me to undo the "Solve" flag above. All I can do is state that this is an open issue here.

  • Weather widget replacement for Windows 7

    I work as an IT for a small business. And I believe that Microsoft once again has removed one more of their products that was sold to us. I keep getting tech support calls about weather widget not working on Windows 7 desktops installed in our offices. I
    need to replace this:
    with something that actually shows a weather forecast and runs on a Windows 7 desktop.
    Any ideas?

    Ok,
    There is a serious issue with the Widgets platform, that has been clearly stated before.  If you are not technically oriented, maybe you should use any of the other alternatives on the replies for your question (except the answer to look out the
    window which is between silly and idiotic, plus mean.
    Now, if you *do* want to fix the widget. The solution is somewhere else and is basically to "touch" a configuration file and restarting the widget.  The solution is temporary so a [hopefully] definitive solution is exposed on the thread and
    is basically locking down the file after "touching" it, with a date in the future.
    The solution is
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-desktop/weather-gadget-not-working-cannot-connect-to/6707d8b4-1a37-4412-a609-5677c9b99a7a?page=27&tab=question&status=AllReplies%2CAllReplies
    As to why someone would want to run such an outdated and unsafe piece of software?   Simple: Some people do not mind, and in fact are willing to take responsibility (to him/herself) if somehting bad happens to the system, plus this particular
    widget is simple, unobtrusive, light (doesn't slow anything down), not spammy and is "always there" to glance at instead of going to a website as someone suggested.   It reminds me in fact of the beautiful Windows 8 Weather app.  
    So, some people may still want to run this widget. Above is the solution to this pestering issue.
    Since you are the IT for other people, not for yourself, I do recommend to use an alternate product.

  • Allow printing of current slide

    I am trying to find a way to allow learners to print the current slide.
    I know Cap 4 has the print slide widget, but it allows learners to view and print all slides at once.

    Does anyone know of another widget or perhaps some code that will allow me to do this?
    I am using Captivate 4, AS2, and Flash Player 9.

  • Widgets disable buttons?

    In CP4, the widgets seem to disable my buttons. I'm having the same issue with both the combo box widget and the print slides widget. The Next and Back buttons are set to go to the next and previous slides, appear after 0.0, and pause a half second before the end of the slide (e.g., pause after 12 seconds on a 12.5 second slide). I'm using the default settings for the widgets. Two images are attached. There appears to be conflicting script/commands. Thanks for any help you can offer.

    I'm afraid this has to be done within the interactive widget (or learning interaction). The pausing point is not even visible on the timeline, but if it is built in will always be there at the fixed time. Example: Games Interactions pause at 1sec, there is no way to change that in the Timing properties. I remember the old button widget, which is no longer there. Sorry, but cannot help you, who created that widget?
