Reusing/Reapplying Buttons on Different Images

I'm currently creating several Flash thumbnail galleries, one
for each month of the year for 2007. I want the galleries to be
identical with the exception of the actual thumbnail images. Each
thumbnail is a button with its own actionscript. Now that I have
completed the gallery for January, I would like to simply delete
just the thumbnail images, but keep the button instances and
properties in order to reuse them for all of the February thumbs so
I don't have to re-type all the AS code, redo the rollovers, etc.
I've deleted all the January thumbs (just the images), and inserted
all the new February thumbs onto the stage, but have kept the
buttons (which remain as unfilled green highlighted squares). I am
trying to apply the old buttons to the new thumbs but can't figure
out how.
What is the best way to do this without having to convert the
new thumbnail images to buttons and redo everything all over
again?

Well I found a fairly simple solution to this..not sure if
it's the "best" way but it works. With the old images gone, create
a 'hit' state for the buttons. On a new layer import the new thumbs
then positions them on top of the buttons.

How to merge two search button from different criteria

How to merge two search button from different criteria
this image show the question
http://s24.postimg.org/4algthuj9/1111.jpg
two different criteria for the same view and I need to merge it in one button as when I click
on the button search result give from two criteria parameters

You can!t using af:query. the af:query component comes as is. If you can't do it through the properties, you probably can't do it at all.
As in your other thread, the way to go is to program your own search form. This way you can use a layout and functionality you like.
For this you create a form with input fields for the values you are searching for, put them on hte page in a way you like and in the end by hitting on a button (e.g. called Search) map all inputfields to parameters of a service method you defined in your application module or VO. This service method then executes a view criteria returning all matches in the default iterator (just as if you had used af:query.

How to apply one animation to play 30 different images?

I'm brand new to Edge Animate and I'm struggling to find the answer to this.
I have an image that comes on to the screen from the left, then stops, then user clicks a button and the image exits stage right and next image needs to come on from stage left and do the exact same thing; user clicks same button as before, new image exits stage right and next image comes in stage left.
This is repeated 30 times for 30 different images of drinks, so instead of animating every image is there a way to code it so i can get each image to automatically come on next after the user has clicked the button and the current image has exited?
It's probably really straight forward but I just can't figure it out!

Here is how I would do it but this is just me! Smarter people do other things.
do no use the main timeline
make one symbol with an out transition and an in transition of an empty div the size of your image or put the image in.
add labels in and out
if your images are all the same size you can load them in the same div as a background image or change your image to img instead of div a load the images
load your images on a click event and play the symbol's labels
var images = ['cat','dog','mouse','chicken','rabbit'];
i=0;
click event
i++;
sym.getSymbol('SymbolName').play('in');
// as a background image of a div
sym.getSymbol('SymbolName').$('imageContainerName').css({'background-image':'url("images/' +images[i]+'.jpg")';
// as an img (you need to change the div to img by selecting the image and changing div to img (top left of the left panel)
sym.getSymbol('SymbolName').$('imageContainerName').attr('src','images/' + images[i]+'.jpg');
You can also write the click event in composition ready:
sym.$('button').click(function(){
i++;
sym.getSymbol('SymbolName').play('in');
// as a background image of a div
sym.getSymbol('SymbolName').$('imageContainerName').css({'background-image':'url("images/' +images[i]+'.jpg")';
// as an img (you need to change the div to img by selecting the image and changing div to img (top left of the left panel)
sym.getSymbol('SymbolName').$('imageContainerName').attr('src','images/' + images[i]+'.jpg');
You could also do that with a json file to load your images into your symbol:
see rudimentary example i made a long time ago for a history course sample here: https://app.box.com/s/nadfi5pjmida4jplci6i
Hope this makes sense.

Why do thumbnail images revert to old image when I delete them and paste a different image?

I press ⌘I to "Get Info" on a file in my finder window and the info window appears. The file is an MKV file for a movie. I dragged an image of a movie poster I got online to the info window so that it would take the place of the default icon (which is just a traffic cone). It worked fine (we'll refer to this image as the "old image"). But now I have changed my mind and would like to use a different image.
So I delete the "old image" (and now the traffic cone is back). Now, I drag a new image to same spot in the info window and now the "old image" comes back. It does this every time.
I even dragged a new image w/ out deleting the "old image" to the same spot in the info window and it didn't work (you can do this in the info window of an iTunes song and it will work).
Any ideas?

Disconnect all devices from the computer then do the following:
Boot up from your Snow Leopard Install DVD while holding down the "c" key.
Select the language you wish to use, and then choose "Disk Utility" from the menu bar.
Your HD should appear in a panel on the left hand side of the window which opens. Select it and then click on the "repair disk" button in the right hand section of the window.
Once this process has been completed restart your computer and repair permissions directly from Disk Utility.
If Disk Utility is unable to complete the repair, you will need to use a stronger 3rd party utility like DiskWarrior, Techtool PRO (not Deluxe) or Drive Genius.
Changing your image working now?

Creating a rollover effect type button using an image? (Captivate 7)

What I would like to do is create something so that when you hover or roll over a specific area, it shows an image (it will appear right under where your mouse pointer is). When you move your mouse away, the image goes away. And if you click on the image when it appears (since it will be right under your mouse), it takes you to another slide, or runs an advanced action.
If I use a rollover slidelet, I move the slidelet piece off-stage because I don't want to use that- I just keep the slidelet area and put there where I want it. I then set the image I want as not visible in output, and set it so that rolling over the slidelet area "shows" this image. The problem with this of course is that when you mouse off, the image is still there. Without creating a custom button with different states, is doing something like this possible?
To clarify a little more, I have an image of a menu created. The menu is a list of text items you can click, listed vertically, like:
-Learn to log in
-Learn to check your grades
-Learn to send a message
and so on.
I have an image of each line of text changed to a different color, with an arrow next to it. So, I want to set it so when you hover over "Learn to log in," it turns blue with an arrow next to it. This effect goes away when you move your mouse off. And when you click it, it takes you to a specific slide.
What is the best way to achieve this?

Ah I forgot about this. I used to do that, but I had some issues at some point with the order of the items. Some of them were linked to advanced actions, and depending on what layer was on top, it was not playing correctly with what was underneath. But this is working perfectly for what I need. Thank you!

Help!! Buttons with different actions on IPAD

Why is in Ipad a button with different actions does not respond to these actions at the same time, but one at a time? In Android works fine!!
What is happening is that in ipad I have to touch more than once on the button to go to the different actions that this button has!
Help...

Hi Tomas
thanks for the quick response. I think mine Adobe Content Viewer is the last update, from February 21, so the problem is not due to this.
II'll explain the situation better, i have several identical situations. For example, I have a square that hides an image and I want that when you tap this square this image appears behind him, then i did the following: I selected at first the square and the image and transformed a multi- State Object, in which the first state is the box (State1) and the second is the image (state 2) then made a transparent button on top of this square and it gave the following actions - on release go to state 2 (image) here everything goes well, the problem is that as I have more buttons / squares that do the same and show different images, that when I turned the other one the next hide her image. So all the buttons in addition to the state that shows the picture / object matching (state 2) - i have also- go to state (name of the object: state 1) causes other squares hide their files, as they get the state 1. Here lies the problem, in ipad these actions do not react automatically but in different touches, it seems that it reads a touch for action and not all at once.
I apologize for my English but I'm Portuguese, I hope you can understand everything explained.

How to use different images in the Table of Contents?

Hello everyone, I am creating an iBook about Architecture and I would like to have different images for each Chapter in the Table of Contents... But when I add an image it automatically appears on all the other chapters, too. What am i doing wrong?

You drag the image to the screen and it replaces the placeholder image.
When you hover over the current image, don't you get the message "this is a placeholder . . ." under your mouse pointer?
I think the documentation states that the new image must be jpg or png, but a Photoshop image seems to work too.
In portrait mode, only one image shows at the top of the list of chapters, and that can be changed too.
But in landscape mode, all of the separate chapter images can be accessed by clicking the littel dots at the bottom of the screen when at the TOC page.

How to add a button to background image in Fireworks

Hello!
I created recently a clickable button with a rollover effect. I made it iin FW CS5 as a symbol and exported. So I have now .html file and 2 images files (2 states of my button). The button itself works fine on a live site. Now, I want to learn a technique to be able to put that button with the effect and the link in it on an image (it would be like a background for the button).
Thanks in advance!

Two things.
First, when you save from Fireworks, you get a Fireworks document .png, complete with layers, vector objects, and all the other various complex definitions Fireworks can support. Fireworks is the only program that can interpret this information. Any other program (such as a browser) can display what the document looks like, but it's probably much larger than it needs to be for the Web. For Web use, you want to export an image (.gif, .jpg, or one of the bitmap .png variations). Be careful when you export an image to a bitmap .png format that you do not use the same name as your master FW document and overwrite your FW document.
Second, DW is not a layout program. In order to create HTML files, you probably ought to learn a bit about HTML. I recommend you work through one or both of these tutorials:
http://articles.sitepoint.com/article/html-css-beginners-guide
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/html-css-techniques/design-and-code-your-first-website-i n-easy-to-understand-steps/
An HTML file defines blocks of content. The blocks can be stacked or can contain other blocks. The basic html file contains two blocks: the head section and the body section. The only thing in the head section that shows is the page title in the browser's address bar. Also, JavaScript code is often put in the head section. The body section contains all the visible content of your page. Within the body section, you add blocks of content that are HTML elements.
Content blocks can have properties., One of the properties is a background image. If you want to have a page background, then you need to create an image, export it from Fireworks, and then set it as the background for the body section of the page. That image is then behind all the content blocks you define within the body section: buttons, paragraphs, other images, tables, anything. Most of these other elements can also have background images defined, too.
Fireworks produces images that are defined by what's visible as well as any active slices (such as those created by buttons). When you exported your background image with a button, Fireworks gave you an HTML table (one of the many kind of content blocks) because the button defined slice regions. Fireworks can't "know" that you really wanted a background image and then the HTML to put a button in a certain location on a page. It created the images you defined (but not what you wanted).

CS5 Image Processor - One script, different image sizes and save locations

Hello guys!

Thanks a lot !!!
Best Regards,

Simple question: How to set a different image to each side of a 3D cube?

Currently I've the code to set an image as texture of the cube, but it applies the same image to all the sides. However, I would like to use different images for each side.
This is my code: http://pastebin.com/sexBx57K
Any clue?

I just have to set the JAXP parser
Q. How do I use a different JAXP compatible implementation?
The JAXP 1.1 API allows applications to plug in different JAXP compatible implementations of parsers or XSLT processors. For example, when an application wants to create a new JAXP DocumentBuilderFactory instance, it calls the staic method DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(). This causes a search for the name of a concrete subclass of DocumentBuilderFactory using the following order:
1. The value of a system property like javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory if it exists and is accessible.
2. The contents of the file $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/jaxp.properties if it exists.
3. The Jar Service Provider discovery mechanism specified in the Jar File Specification. A jar file can have a resource (i.e. an embedded file) such as META-INF/services/javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory containing the name of the concrete class to instantiate.
4. The fallback platform default implementation.

How to add two different images on photoshop cs5?

I was learning about the layers and masks and i seen that i have to have two images under each others under the layer option pannel, i tried many times to add images but it always shows in two different pannels as the folloing image I want to add two different images in this pannel to make any changes i want
Thank you.
image

When you click on that icon Photoshop will add a revail all white layer mask and it will be the Photoshop target. Begin painting with black over the image part you wish to hide. Should you paint away something you want change to white paint and paint it back. Lower the brush opacity to fade in and out the image part.
If you use ALT+Click on that icon a hide all black layer mask will be added as the current taget and hide all of the layer paint with whits to show.
