Setting a Conditional Display for a Menu

Hi,
I'm having a lot of trouble setting conditional displays for my menus, and I was hoping somebody will be able to assist me.
The main page of my application allows the user to search for facilities by state, by city, or by zip code. Each search goes through a different series of pages, but ultimately gives facility details on page 15.
For example, Search by State goes through page 1 -> 2 -> 3-> 6 -> 15
Search by Zip goes through page 1 -> 24 -> 15
How can I set conditions so that the State Menu shows on page 15 when Search by State is chosen, and the Zip Code Menu shows on page 15 when Search by Zip is chosen?
Search by State and Search by Zip are both html links that the user clicks on, located on page 1.
Thanks so much in advance,
Nora

You could create a hidden item on P15 that knows what type of search you are doing. eg P15_SEARCH. Set the value of it in the url when you call the page.
You could then use the value of this to show/hide different menus.

Text caption set up to display for all of slide

hello
i'm using captivate 5 and have another query.
is there a way to automatically set up text captions to display for the whole slide not a specific time? I know how to set this, but to go through and do this for every text caption is proving to be very time consuming.
look forward to hearing from you.

The Timing accordion of the Text caption could allow you to apply the setting 'For rest of slide' to all text captions (use the curved arrow, highlighted in screenshot), but the drawback is that this timing accordion also has the start time that will then be applied to all text captions, which is not always what you'll want. So for the example of the screenshot, all text captions would get a start at 4,5secs if I applied this setting to all.
If you want all future Text Captions in all projects to have the setting 'For rest of slide' make changes to the Preferences before opening a project.

Setting a Conditional Action for Pre-Test questions: Skipping Content Slides

OK boys and girls, let's see if this is even possible within one course SCO, or if this a multi-SCO solution (which means I'm toast, because we don't have the multi-SCO aggregator)?
I want to set up a prescriptive pre-test. In my ideal world, answers to each individual question would either enable or disable the content slides connected to the question. If the user passes the pre-test, they could opt to skip the prescriptive stuff and complete the course. If the user fails the pretest, they would have to view the enabled content.
Is this even possible in a single SCO world?
Justenuf

Jim belongs in that pantheon of good guys as well, so many here have pointed me in the right direction and helped me move forward with the capabilities of this software. And, in that spirit - here's my work around for the pretest/post test in a SCORM 1.2 environment:
Created an entrance slide that allows opting totake the pretest or not - but only allows you to take it once.
Created one test (take off the question x of x widget) split it and slide the content in between it. In this case, 10 questions with 5 in each set.
Titled the first set of questions as a PreTest and the second set as a Post Test.
Set my passing score at 4 correct. (the user only needs to get 4 out 5 on either set correct to pass - and I'm setting up an action that only allows the user to see the questions they missed if they fail the pretest.)
Created variables for each "pretest" question and set them at 0. Created on Enter advanced actions on each slide following a question that toggled the variable to 1 if the question was answered correctly if "CpQuizInfoLastSlidepointScored is equal to 1" then "Assign Question<x> with 1"
Created an On Enter advanced action for each content area slide "Skip #" that allowed prescription:
"If Question # is equal to 1 or cpQuizInfoPassFail is equal to 1, then Go to Next Slide"
Only the content connected to the missed questions in the pretest is seen.
Copied the same On Enter advanced action the Post test questions and renamed it "SkipPost #" that allowed prescription:
"If Question # is equal to 1 or cpQuizInfoPassFail is equal to 1, then Go to Next Slide"
Only the questions related to the reviewed content are seen
The sum total of these activities is the following -
The user can choose to take the pretest and complete the course by gettiong 4 or 5 questions correct and jump to the exit page.
     If the user takes the pretest and scores lower than 80%, the content for the missed questions is viewed and the user must answer the questions regarding
     that content. The user passes the course when he/she answers the fourth question correctly.
The user can choose to view the content, take the post test and pass the course by answering 4 of 5 correctly.
it's running right in preview, in web browser preview and on my LMS previewer, with one navigation error.
      the error: after failing the pretest, taking the prescribed content and anse wering the questions correctly, the course occasionally jumps to the results page
     and s displays a failure message, then freezes in place. it does NOT happen each time, which is why I am cy urrently scurrying back to my happy place to dwell
     on this mystery awhile.

Conditionally Displayed Field

I have a select list, and I want one of the options to be "Other." When the user selects other, I'm trying to have a text field that conditionally displays. I'm trying to set the conditional display for when the select list item is equal 'Other', but it's not working. I want to be able to have that item's value to be set as 'Other' when they choose it from the select list, but I don't want to set the item as "select list with submit" because I don't want the whole page to submit, I just want the select list to submit 'Other' so the text field will conditionally display.

Brice,
When a page submits because of a 'select list with submit' selection, the REQUEST value is set to the name of the select list item. You can use that REQUEST value to control what actions occur after submit. So if you didn't want a process to fire in that case, you could put a condition on the process like 'Request != Expression 1' and type the item name in the Expression 1 field. This is the standard way to use page-submitting items to do their work without side-effects.
You might be able to do what you want with javaScript also, but I don't know how.

How to use more than one region 'Conditional Display'

Hi,
I use a region and i want to use 2 Conditional Display for this region:
. Fisrt when 'Request Is Contained within Expression 1' ==> 'Val1,Val2'
. Second when 'Inline Validation Errors Displayed'
Is it possible.
Thanks

Hi,
The first one is relatively straightforward as there is a Condition Type available for that.
The second one is a bit more complicated but can still be done. Have a look at Re: how to use wwv_flow.g_inline_validation_error_cnt? This will tell you how many validations failed. If there were any failures, you can set a hidden page item to 1, for example, and then use this page item in your condition

Conditionally Displaying Regions w/o Submitting Page

I have a radiogroup with 6 choices in it. For each of these 6 choices exists a corresponding region, which I want to conditionally display upon choosing its corresponding choice in the radiogroup. The problem I'm having is that the only way I know how to do this is to make the radiogroup a radiogroup w/ submit, but I don't want to submit the entire page and its contents upon making a selection from the radiogroup, I just want to conditionally display specific regions and not submit the page until the submit button is clicked. It seems as though there should be an easy way to do this, is there?

That's actually the first thing I tried too. The only problem with that is that with just a redirect, the item doesn't seem to store the value of the choice from the radiogroup, so there's no criteria there by which to set the conditional display.

How to handle Multiple Conditional Display

I have a page (call it page 2) that one can navigate to using a column link from another page, or using a link from a list. On page 2 I have a region that I would like to conditionally display; display the region if they navigate using the list link, do not display if they navigate using the column link or if the page is in printer friendly mode. I can probably handle a multiple conditional display for a region using something like a PL/SQL Function Body returning boolean, is it possible to know which link was clicked?
Other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Mark

Sudheshna-
In my List, I set REQUEST to P2_PARAM. On page 2, in the region where I want to control the display, for Conditional Type I chose PL/SQL Function Body returning boolean. In Expresion 1 I have this code;
BEGIN
IF V('REQUEST') = 'P2_PARAM' THEN
RETURN TRUE;
ELSE
RETURN FALSE;
END IF;
END;
The ELSE, handles the times I do not want to display the region, in my case if I linked to the page from a column on a page other than page 2, or if I want the page in printer friendly mode.
Regards
Mark

Complex conditional display in report table

Hi,
I built a report in a region, and want to make one of the columns conditionally display based on attributes from two other columns in the table. The drop-down for the conditional display only lets me refer to the current item. Is there a way I can reference the other cells in that table row in a PL/SQL expression (e.g.: something akin to #COLB# is not null and #COLC#>1000 ?)
Related question: I'm assuming the reason I can't directly change the source for the report region and can only modify it from the Query Definition tab is because I used a wizard to create it. Is there a way to "undo" this and make the source for the report fully editable? That would also solve the problem, since I could just add a function-derived column to the query.
Thanks in advance,
Keith

One final update and rephrasing of the problem, because maybe there's another way to solve this.
I have a column in a report that links to another page, but the link is only shown if a certain condition is met (which is based on other cells in this table row). I can test for those conditions in my original SQL query, so that a null value in my link column results in no user-clickable link being created. (I have to make sure that a null value appears as null on the report page, too.)
This works fine if the link text is just that: text. Because not meeting the condition returns null, so no text == no link.
Now the only problem I have comes if I want to use an icon (e.g.: the edit icon) instead of link text.
What I really want is for the icon to only appear if a certain condition is met. However, the icon replaces the column value so I can no longer use a null value to prevent the link from appearing.
The original question asked whether I can use other report cells (#foo#) in the conditional display for a cell. If that's not possible, any suggestions on how to achieve the desired effect without resorting to JavaScript?
Thanks.

Hi Everyone.
Does anyone know where I can find an A condition Display for a Late 2012 21.5" iMac :LM215WF3 (SD) (D1) Made by LG ? Or I remember reading LG made a Monitor with the same Display ,Anyone remember that Model # ?
Thank You

Whereabouts are you based (what country)? Is it the SBLi've Platinum 5. you have?
It's available on the European online store if you're based there, otherwise you could contact Customer Support for your region to see if they can assist you.

Pause / Resume button combination not working when set to display for "rest of project"

Good day,
I have created a set of four objects on slide2 of my project
1. Smart Object rounded rectangle with text "(playing) - CLICK to Pause" [this is the graphic the user sees]
2. Smart Object rounded rectangle with text "(paused) - CLICK to Resume" [this is the graphic the user sees]
3. Smart Object rectangle, transparent, used as button, set to not display in project - btn_Resume
4. Smart Object rectangle, transparent, used as button - btn_Pause
A. Script assigned to btn_Pause hides btn_Pause and the "CLICK to Pause" graphic, shows the btn_Resume and "CLICK to Resume" graphic, and pauses the project by setting the system pause variable to 1
B. Script assigned to btn_Resume hides btn_Resume and the "CLICK to Resume" graphic, shows the btn_Pause and "CLICK to Pause" graphic, and resumes the project by setting the system resume variable to 1
C. All items are set to display from the beginning of slide2 for the "rest of project"
On slide 2, the buttons hide/show and pause/resume behaviors work correctly.
On slide 3, the correct initial button and graphic appears, and the click sound works when clicked, but no behaviors (show/hide/pause) occur until a good amount of time into the slide: you can click all you want for 20-30 seconds, but nothing works except the click sound. Eventually, the behavior will work.
On slides 4 and following, the correct initial button and graphic appears, and the click sound works when clicked, but no behaviors EVER work.
If the behaviors NEVER, EVER worked, I would keep looking for what I did not have set correctly, but the correct working on the slide where they are set, delayed behavior on the next, and no behavior on the remainder of slides following has me stumped.
Captivate version 6.0.1.240
Windows 7 OS
I hope I'm missing something obvious here, and I'm more than willing to face-palm if you tell me . Otherwise, I have not been able to find any setting that makes any difference. I would REALLY rather not duplicate the buttons and scripts on every page of the project. Given the blog posts I have seen saying this method should work just fine, I'm hoping there is a side quirk somewhere that I'm missing.
Thanks for any help you can give.

Without clouding with too much explanation, this technique arose out of a need to deal with (in a different project) objects that were grouped, and wanting to deal with the groups in as simple a way as possible, allow for easy swapping of group assets, and having a few buttons do multiple things. The idea of being able to have multiple interactive buttons stacked on top of each other while appearing for the rest of the project led to trying this simple construct before trying something more complex.
You are correct, that there is a simpler solution, which we ended up using because we were not able to get two interactive buttons stacked on top of each other while displayed for the rest of the project to work properly (although that is SUPPOSED to work, as far as I understand).
Here's what we ended up doing:
A) Two smartshapes used as messaging graphics
B) A single (one) interactive smartshape used as a button
C) A conditional action to pause/resume and show/hide the appropriate messaging graphics
D) All three objects (A&B) stacked, B on top.
E) All objects set to always appear on top, and to display for rest of project.
Our hypothesis, then, is that you are not able to stack interactive objects on top of each other and then display for the rest of the project.
If anyone has evidence to the contrary, we would, gladly, take a look.
Thanks for your interest Lilybiri, and for your input.
Best regards,
Hank

The condition record for use B can not be displayed

Hi gururs,
What does this message (number : VE896 ) mean ?
How to make it desapear ?
P.S : it's about output type for purchase orders.
This message is displayed when I click on : "Goto -> Determi analysis" in tcode ME22N.
Regards,
Bahia.

Hi
It means you are trying to veiw the executed condition record. System found the condition record for entered transactional data which you cannot see by clicking on it (when you see green record in condition analysis).
For given condition type -> and access sequence/ access - system shows the condition record that is determined. You can see its details by clicking the access which shows the message that condition record has been found with its determined parameters.
Ex: For batch determination I have set up one search strategy with a condition type (with access sequence). I created one condition record. When creating say sales order -batch determination takes place based on condition record parameters. System shows a green light for determined condition record. You cannot see its details - if you try to see then system issues a message like ''The condition record for use B can not be displayed''. If you want to see click on its immediate predecessor (access ).
Thanks

Quick way to change "Optimize for" setting when "mirror displays" is on?

Is there a quick way to change "Optimize for" setting when "mirror displays" is on?
I have two displays on my Mac Mini for totally different areas; I can't see the first monitor when I'm on the second. One is 1280x1024, one is 1920x1200. As I switch fairly often I'm wondering if there is a built-in or 3rd-party-utility way to quickly toggle the "optimize for" setting that is under "System Preferences" -> "Displays" -> "Display" tab -> "Optimize for:" dropdown box.
As Apple sadly doesn't make a all-in-one keyboard / mouse - need one as one of the monitors is used for just a very comfy chair, so keyboard is on my lap - I'm using an Lenovo ThinkPad USB Travel Keyboard, model SK-8855, and some key cobinations, esp. with function keys, seem not to work on it. So something from the desktop context menu or that allows you to set the hotkey would be preferable.
Thanks for any help,

I'm thinking that, Display Menu from the Mac App Store will help.

How do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop? I want to use both displays at the same time.

how do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop? I want to use both displays at the same time. My iMac is the 24" Late 2006 model. I recall that there is a cord for plugging in a second monitor, but I want to make sure that i can use both monitors side-by-side at the same time. thank you.

If the Display supports DVI, then you will need a > Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
If the Display only supports VGA, then you wiil need a > Mini DVI to VGA Adapter and a VGA cable.
Noting that the (digital) DVI is far better than the (analog) VGA connection.

How to set the conditions for item deletion approval workflow?

Hi,
I have created approval workflow for item modifications ie, when user try to modify an item, it will send a mail to Project Manager. For that I set the conditions in Change the behavior of the overall task: 1. When the task process starts 2 . When the task
process completes .
Change the behavior of the single task: 1.when a task is Pending.
[I followed this https://www.nothingbutsharepoint.com/sites/eusp/Pages/5-Steps-to-Enhance-SharePoint-2010-Approval-Workflow.aspx ]
My Requirement is that I want to set this same workflow for the scenario: when the user deletes an item it will send a mail (intimation mail for item deletion) to Project Manager. here i dont want to send modification mails when user deletes an item.
When user modifies an item: 1. intimation mail, 2. Approve/Reject mail 3. intimation for approval / rejection mail.
When user deletes an item: 1. intimation mail.
How can we set it in one approval workflow?? where i have to set the condition for sending either item modification mails or deletion mail.
Thanks,
Praveen ji

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to start approval workflow when item deleted.
You should first make some changes to trigger the workflow when you delete the item.
You can use the Event Receiver to achieve it.
In order to trigger workflow on item delete you need to create event receivers and from event receiver call the workflow already attached with list.
http://ravendra.wordpress.com/sharepoint-workflow-on-list-item-delete/
You can also create custom action to start the workflow, you can refer to the following article, then modify the workflow as your need.

Ideas for HELP sizing a photo to display as a menu background

Hey gang. I'm authoring in iDVD and have a photo with DVD credits that I want to display as a menu background. There won't be any buttons on the page. Just this image of DVD credits. The iDVD manual tells you to size photos for an NTSC 4:3 display at 720 x 540 pixels. However, when I drop it onto the menu, it automatically enlarges the image so that there's only a partial view of the image. The only adjustment that can be made is vertically. I've even tried shrinking the image with text and mounting it on a matte so that it appears in the TV safe viewing area, but no luck there. Same thing happens. Any ideas? If someone want to mess around with the image, let me know and i'll email it to you. Thanks!

hey there koshercuts, welcome to Discussions.
have you tried to edit your pic in iPhoto before dropping it into the iDVD menu? this is where you edit your pix, not in iDVD. also see this: http://www.danslagle.com/mac/iMovie/, Dan's site has a lot of great info, especially "Tips & Tricks".
good luck.
