Set slider path position via calc

So I have a simple display icon (Icon title = Flash Movie
Position Slider) object set with the following settings:
Positioning = On Path
Movable = On Path
Base = 0
Initial = 0
End = 100
I know how to get the current position using PathPosition or
DisplayX, but how do I set it via code? I have tried using
SetIconProperty for LocationX, BaseX, InitialX but none work. Other
than just the user sliding the slider I want the slider to move on
it's own during the flash video playing. I have the calculation
down to set an X position based on the current frame, just cant
find that magic setting to specify a value to the path to make it
happen.
PS: This is not using the WinCtrls slider just a basic
Authorware path using a display icon.

The Flash Sprite help file will tell you how to get the
equivalent of
MediaPosition form a Flash movie. Open your Flash Sprite
properties and
press the Help button on the properties dialogue.

  • How to set the PATH in Terminal?

    As a newbie to Bash and the Terminal, in connection with installing a new version of Ruby and various add-ons, I have been messing around with changing the PATH via various methods I've found on the internet, and trying to add a new directory to my PATH. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out how to set the PATH correctly. Here is what I understand so far:
    1. Bash first looks to ".bash_profile" in the home directory for PATH settings.
    2. If none, Bash then looks to ".bash_login" for PATH settings.
    3. If none, Bash then looks to ".profile".
    4. If none, Bash then looks to a system file in "/etc/profile" for default PATH settings.
    5. For a new shell after login, Bash looks for a ".bashrc" file.
    I cannot find any of the above files (I have Finder set to show hidden files already). Somehow, following some instructions from the internet without really knowing what I was doing over the past week I have set my PATH as follows:
    /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/Users/*****/src:/usr/X11/bin
    but I cannot find the file that is setting this PATH. I have tried creating a new ".bash_profile" shell file and putting it in various places such as "/bin" and "/usr/bin" but the file is not being read.
    * As a temporary workaround I tried using the command "source .bash_profile" upon login to set the PATH using the .bash_profile file that I created, but it does not work.
    * I am able to temporarily alter the path using the command "PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH" but this only lasts for an active shell; when I close out and reopen a new shell, it reverts to the default.
    So my questions are:
    Is it correct that there is a "/etc/profile" somewhere that is setting the default PATH? If so where is it? Should I alter it, or create a new ".bash_profile" somewhere to set the PATH? If not, where is my PATH being set? If I should create a new ".bash_profile", what exactly should go in it?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    ... I created a new ".bash_profile" file directly under my home directory and it worked like a charm. Below is the content of the file:
    "PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin/:/sbin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/sbin/:/Users/******/Ruby:/Users/*******/src:/Users/******/Java Programs/"
    What are the "..."'s? Is that just you, or is the contents of the file actually inside of double quotes?
    is there an 'export PATH' also in the file? As in
    PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin/:/sbin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/sbin/:/Users/******/Ruby:/Users/*******/src:/Users/******/Java Programs/
    export PATH
    And did you either restart your Terminal session so your .bash_profile was read, or issue a 'source .bash_profile' command to execute the .bash_profile after your change?
    The only remaining problem is that from the home directory, I'm unable to directly run programs in the above-designated subdirectories (without first navigating to the subdirectory containing the file. Is there something wrong with the syntax or order of the directories I put in the path?
    For example: there is a file called "newprogram.rb" in the "Ruby" directory listed above. I should be able to execute it from the home directory using "ruby newprogram.rb" but it does not work. The same command works fine from within the "Ruby" directory.
    Does the 'ruby' command search PATH to find its scripts?
    Have you read the "man ruby" man page to see if it talks about PATH?
    A common Unix feature is that programs and scripts with the executable bit set, and are located in a PATH directory, will be run if you just type their names.
    For example, if the first line of newprogram.rb script starts with
    #!/usr/bin/ruby
    and if the script is executable
    chmod +x newprogram.rb
    And if it is in a directory in PATH, then just typing
    newprogram.rb
    should run your perl script using /usr/bin/ruby. If you want to use a different version of Ruby, then change the #! line so it point to your version of Ruby. Or if your version of Ruby is found earlier in PATH then the /usr/bin/ruby, you can use
    #!/usr/bin/env ruby
    as your script's first line which will search PATH for 'ruby' and use the first one it finds.

  • How do I set execution path in VAPI-XP-TEST?

    Hi,
       I have created a VAPI-XP-TEST which calls my project's executable from it's Debug folder.
    I am setting the path of the executable via Parameters.
    My project has a configuration file which reads from some input files. I have given the relative path of the files in the configuration.
    The relative path reads as ..//..//Input
    So, the test needs to go 2 levels back from the "Debug" folder and get the contents of the "Input" folder.
    My project runs fine as is.
    However, when I hook up this exe to a VAPI-XP-TEST, the relative path accesses the install location of ALM instead of my Project's debug folder. Hence, the test fails as it is unable to find the Input folder.
    How can I specify in my test script or through a setting, to take the path as my project's debug folder?
    I have tried the following command just before I trigger the XTools.Run command, but it did not work.
    Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(path)  - where path is the path to my project's Debug folder.
    Please help!

    No, that's not quite what our friend Apple Certified was saying. In summary (from someone who has ballsed this exercise up a few times now):
    1. Move your apple loops folder to the external drive. You'll then need to open logic and drag the loops folder on to the loops browser to make it re-index them.
    2. You can move the EXS samples to the ext drive as suggested via the use of aliases. Do NOT move the sample instruments folder.
    3. You can move the projects and related audio files to an external hard drive if you wish.
    4. Be careful moving garage band instruments. You can move them in the same way you moved the EXS sounds, except for the Hybrid synthesizers. If you move them you'll have trouble later.
    I'm sure someone will correct me if I've mis-stated anything, but from my experience those are the main points to focus on. Hope that helps.

  • HT1421 Is there a way to set a path statement in an iPad Iso5.1 to connect to a web server on the same network

    I have
    A local web server and would
    Like to connect to it via my iPad. It does not work correctly using ip address. Would likee to set a path name on the iPad so I can connect via a name.
    Like http://me.home.com

    When I go to 192.168.254.2/Wordpress it works, but if I go to any posts or pages it says safari can not connect to ragwing.home.org. That is the server name. If I try to go to ragwing.home.org it says the same. If I use my laptop running windows it works, because I have put the name ragwing.home.org in the path statement. If I use my linux laptop it works also.

  • Multiple Slide Paths

    Hello,
    I am having an issue creating different slide paths within my presentation. My main goal is to have a slide that contains two buttons, one that takes you to the next slide (Path A) and the other that takes you to Path B (jumps to a slide further down in line). When I create this slide, the only button that works is the button for Path A, which is the one that takes me to the next slide. But then the button for Path B (the one that jumps) does nothing. I have tried using the branching view, grounping the appropriate slides, all to no avail. Has anyone had this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • How do I set project paths in JBuilder 4?

    Hello,
    I am trying to create a new project in JBuilder 4.
    I used the project wizard and set my paths to the following folders:
    C:\OU2007\TM427\mysolution
    However when the project and all files are getting saved to these folders:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\jbproject
    Have you any idea why this is? I�m a bit confused on what I should enter for each of the paths in the project wizard, any help would be appreciated.
    thanks,
    Jason.

    It's difficult to set a single font size without wrecking the display of most web sites. One alternative would be to store your preferred zoom level and apply that to all sites. This requires an add-on such as:
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965/ Default FullZoom Level]
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]
    Does that work for you?

  • How can i set a path for my deployment files in weblogic server 10.3

    Hi
    How can i set the path for my WAR ,JAR files while deploying.i am using the wls10.3 version.
    is there any scripts for this ,please provide me.
    my Application is ADF 11g application.

    By "path", I assume you mean "classpath".
    The simplest way is simply to include the jars you need inside the web application or web module's WEB-INF/lib directory, EJB module's META-INF/lib directory, or EAR lib directory.
    If that's not practical, if you use NodeManager to start your servers, you can go to the "Server Start" tab in the server definition in the WebLogic console and edit the "Classpath" field, which defaults to no value. You can specify a classpath value there. Note that if you specify a value there, it REPLACES the default classpath for the server, it doesn't add to it. If you need to just add to it (a much more likely scenario), if the value references the value "$CLASSPATH" in it, that will reference the original classpath value that the server would have had.
    So, for instance, if you wanted to include the MQ jars in the server classpath, you could set a value like this:
    /usr/java/mq/lib/mq.jar:/usr/java/mq/lib/mqstuff.jar:$CLASSPATH

  • Setting the path in Windows98

    Hello,
    I'd like to run my java application on a computer with Windows 98, and not in the java bin directory. I'm familiar with setting the path variables in Windows XP. You go to control panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment Variable -> and set them as you like. In Windows 98 there seems to be no such method. Instead I'm hacking away at the autoexec.bat file, but I still can't seem to get it to work. Currently, this is what my autoexec.bat file looks like:
    REM [Header]
    @ECHO OFF
    REM [CD-ROM Drive]
    REM c:\windows\command\mscdex /d:gem001
    REM [Miscellaneous]
    REM [Display]
    REM [Sound, MIDI, or Video Capture Card]
    REM [Mouse]
    c:\windows\cwcdata\cwcdos.exe
    PATH=c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_01\bin;c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_01\bin;
    CLASSPATH=c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_01\bin;c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_01\bin;
    I put the path to both the JRE and JDK in both the PATH and CLASSPATH variables just to be sure. From a DOS prompt, the "java" command seems to work from anywhere, but the "javac" command still only works in the bin directory. Can any think of where I'm going wrong?

    This is copied from the installation Instructions for the product you downloaded. (Note the use of quotation marks - eithr do that or uses the 8.3 format of the directory name)
    Microsoft Windows 98 - To set the PATH permanently, open the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and add or change the PATH statement as follows:
    Start the system editor. Choose "Start", "Run" and enter sysedit, then click OK. The system editor starts up with several windows showing. Go to the window that is displaying AUTOEXEC.BAT
    Look for the PATH statement. (If you don't have one, add one.) If you're not sure where to add the path, add it to the right end of the PATH. For example, in the following PATH statement, we have added the bin directory at the right end:
    PATH C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;"C:\PROGRAM FILES\JAVA\JDK1.5.0_<version>\BIN"
    Capitalization doesn't matter. The PATH can be a series of directories separated by semi-colons (;). Microsoft Windows searches for programs in the PATH directories in order, from left to right. You should only have one bin directory for a JDK in the path at a time (those following the first are ignored), so if one is already present, you can update it to jdk1.5.0_<version>.
    To make the path take effect in the current Command Prompt window, execute the following:
    C:> c:\autoexec.bat
    To find out the current value of your PATH, to see if it took effect, at the command prompt, type:
    C:> path
