Slide Locking (to prevent user from "skipping")

Hi All-
Just like the title implies I am trying to find a way to lock
a slide and prevent the user from skipping to the next one (until
the current slide is done playing).
I'm sure this is some where in here I'm just not finding it.
Could somebody point me in the right direction?

Hi again
Typically the playback controls are an all or nothing
situation. If you are using Captivate 3, someone familiar with
programming Flash could create a widget that you would drop into a
slide to turn the playback controls off for only a single slide.
But if you are using Captivate 4, there is a new scripting
capability. Actually, one of the Community Experts here posted
something earlier in the week that shows you how to do it. I'll
look up the thread and post the link below in case you are using
Captivate 4.

How to do prevent users from skipping slides?

Hi, I’m an Adobe Captivate noob, so I’d really appreciate some help.
I want to lock the user’s navigation option, in such a way that if the user hasn’t finished a slide yet, he or she will not be able to proceed to the next slide or to other slides in the project. How do I do this? Is this even possible? If yes, what are my options?
I’m using Adobe Captivate 4.
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
Why should you be ignored? We all once were 'rookies' and this forum with his fine moderator, Captiv8r. Experienced users have helped me a lot when I was starting with Captivate
If you only deactivate the Next button in the playbar, wouldn't that achieve your goal? But of course, the user could just drag the slider to skip in that case. If you want complete control, you will have to create your own navigation on the slides I think. Add a Back and an Next button, but set the Next button on the timeline of the slide very late on that slide. Just tried this: slide has a duration of 3sec. I created a Next button, with Success action 'Go to next slide' and changed the Timing settings:
appear after 2.9sec
duration = 0.1sec
pause after 0.1sec
The button will appear when the playhead reaches almost the end of the slide and will have this slide paused until the user clicks.
You will need a Back button with more default settings.

PS: sorry, had to look for your version. You can easily copy this button, the select all the slides in the filmstrip and paste it on all. The timing and the success action will be the same on all slides.

How can SAP be configured to prevent users from consuming locks?

How can SAP be configured to prevent users from consuming locks?
The issue is that we want to prevent users to use upto maximum locks and so that we will not get lock table overflow issue. I know that we can assign parameter "enque/table_size" a good amount of value. But it is not for any specific user.
Also want to alert in CCMS if any user reaches to its maximum speficified limit of locks.
Thanks
Gopesh

You cannot set a limit of locks per user. There are two ways to reduce/control the number of locks:
- change fewer records within one transaction
- cover more records with one lock using wildcards
Basically it is an application / development issue.

Prevent user from navigating to a specific slide

How can I prevent user from navigating to a specific slide? In my course, I’ve added two slides at the very end (one slide is a Resources page and the other slide is a glossary).
I’ve added two buttons on all of the course’s slides, which brings the user to the glossary or resources page when they click on it. This should be the only way they can access these two slides.
I don't know how I can configure the course navigation bar so that the user can't access these two slides when they advance to the end of the course. I'm essentially looking for a way to "hide" these two slides so that the user can only access them by clicking the Glossary or Resources buttons.
Any suggestions?

You want to keep playbar? It will not be possible then because scrubbing
the progress bar can always get them to any slide. For buttons it could be
done, easiest way is with custom navigation buttons but first have to know
about that.

Prevent user from selecting quiz answer

I'm using CP5 and my project is predominantly quiz questions. Each question allows infinite attempts and uses advanced answer options to 'show' audio feedback for all answers submitted (wrong and correct).
Also, each quiz has an audio introduction.
When a user enters a quiz slide, the audio intro plays, but the user is able to submit an answer. If they do this, the audio feedback for the question plays at the same time as the introduction audio. Similarly, if the user submits a wrong answer, then quickly submits another answer, the 2 feedback audios play concurrently.
So, things are working as I expect them to, but it's not ideal and is a little sloppy if a user doesn't wait for audio to stop before doing their thing.
Is there a way to prevent users from submitting answers while either the intro to the slide is playing or while another answer feedback is playing?
I haven't been able to figure out how to do this with advanced actions.
I also considered putting invisible, dead buttons or captions over the answers that would block a user's click until the audio is done, but there's no way that I know to put anything in front of a quiz object.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Guido,
please state your specific question in the posting as well, as after quickly reading it I had to stop and read a second time to really get the meaning of it.
So you want to know how you can prevent change of selection in certain cases:
For simple validation a client-side javascript would be easy, this way you can even prevent the submit-event from being fired.
For more complex validation you need the server, right. But I would not use the iterator method for this.
The "best" place for input validation would be do_handle_data, which is executed before do_handle_event, where you can react on the incoming row-selection-event and the validation result.

How to prevent users from running PRC: Transaction Import from WebADI form?

Hi,
We are 12.1.3 and trying to create a workflow to approve Project transactions coming through web ADI before they become effective. To this end, we want to prevent users from running the PRC: Transaction Import from the Web ADI.
I know that if the checkbox Automatically run transaction import is not checked, the program does not run. But we want to hide this checkbox and not allow the possibility that the program could get triggered.
To this end, we updated the BNE_INTEGRATORS_B with source='C'. This allows you to edit the integrator from Desktop Integration Manager.
UPDATE BNE_INTEGRATORS_B SET SOURCE ='C' WHERE INTEGRATOR_CODE ='PAXTTRXB'
In the 4th step, where the value for Uploader Parameters is set, we have set boolean value to No. These are the fields on the page:
Parameter Name: bne:import
Display Name: Start Transaction Upload
Data Type: Boolean
Category: Field
Default Value: Boolean Flag: No
Description: start Transaction Import Concurrent Request
Display Options: Displayed: Unchecked
Display Options: Enabled: Checked
Display Options: Required: Checked
Prompt Left: Automatically submit Transaction import
Display Type: Check Box
Maximun Size: 100
Display Size:100
Now the checkbox is not appearing for the user to check it, But the program is automatically running when you hit Upload in the WebADI.

Hi ,
Try removing the PRC: Transaction Import Program from the request group for the responsibility used by customers to submit the WebADI and then check if the program launches.

Raghavan

Hi All, We are in to Release 11.5.10.2.There is a specific requirement to Prevent users from creating Manual Sales Orders in oracle and yet users should be able to book the Sales Orders Imported from CRM system into Orcale.Please advise.

Hi All, We are in to Release 11.5.10.2.There is a specific requirement to Prevent users from creating Manual Sales Orders in Oracle and yet users should be able to book the Sales Orders Imported from CRM system into Orcale.Please advise.

Thanks for your advise.
However, I missed to mention that we have two set of users One is for Finished Goods and another for Spares.
Only Spares users need to be prevented from creating Direct/Manual Sales Orders in Oracle.
As you suggested, if this will be done at Form level, that may Disallow FG users also to create Manula Sales Orders which should not be the case.
Further, I tried to test one scenario through Processing Constraints but it did not work.

How do I prevent users from being able to update Firmware

I have several users (14) with iPad 2 and they rely on an in-house developed App. we have yet to test this App on iOS 5.1 and therefore want to avoid any of the users updating the iPads at all cost!
this question is in two parts:
How can I prevent users from upgrading firmware themselves short of just asking nicely?
How can I stop the iPad from automatically downloading the Upgrade when I deploy a Policy using the iPhone Configuration Utility?
Any advice would be great!

We've been looking at the AirWatch mdm and have been told it has this capability. Not sure if it would be justified from an economic standpoint for you, however.

Is there any way to prevent users from ship confirming on a particular date?

Hello All,
We have a requirement to prevent users from ship confirming on a particular date. This is due to they are performing Annual Physical Inventory.
Is it possible to restrict users performing shipping transactions on this particular date?
I have tried adding exception to the existing Calendar set at org level and there is no customer specific Calendar defined, however it is still allowing me to perform ship confirm.
Please let me know if you have any suggestion on this requirement.
Thanks

Hi,
Yes is Possible.
You can add An Exception in Your Shipping Calender.
So when Some one tries to ship an Order on that date Oracle will automatically select Next possible date.
Thanks

How to prevent users from saving and emailing intranet documents externally

Someone in our company needs to upload a pdf to our sharepoint intranet site for internal-only use. How can I prevent users from downloading it and emailing it externally?
I mean, a user could screenshot it I guess, but I need to give management a due diligence answer.

You would need to look into a reverse proxy/firewall that had the ability to block access based on content. This isn't something you can accomplish out of the box with SharePoint (even with AD RMS).

To prevent user from droping any object from a sepacific schema

Dear User
I have a database user like "aaa" in oracle 7.3.4.0.1 database.i do not want user "aaa" to drop his own schema objects like table and any other objects that he is owner.Do i have any system privilege to stop this user from doing so.User should be able to create objects and modify object but not to drop any object.For this purpose i have created a database trigger at database level to stop user "aaa" for doing above action.this trigger is giving me error on creation in oracle 7.3.4.0.1 .But when i tried same trigger in oracle 8i and 9i it work well.In oracle 8i and 9i it is preventing user from droping his own objects but i get other errors also along with raised error in trigger which i want to stop .The error which i am raising in trigger is
ORA-20001 INVALID COMMAND BUT OTHER TWO ERRORS THAT R RAISED AUTOMATICALLY ARE
ORA-00604 ERROR OCCURED AT RECURSIVE SQL LEVEL 1
AND
ORA-06512 AT LINE 8
I WANT TO STOP THESE TWO ERRORS .
PLZ HELP ME IN THIS REGARD AS SOON AS POSSBILE .
Thank u.

Given that you have not posted your code it is very difficult to know why you are getting these errors.
Howver, I can take a guess. If I were trying to implement this functionality I would build a database event trigger that fired whenever a DROP command was issued and cause that command to fail. If this is the approach you've taken I think you are out of luck, as I belive DDL triggers were introduced in Oracle 8.
Mind you, it's been a long time since I worked on Oracle7, so I might be wrong. In which case post your code, don't make me guess again.

Hi
DBAs can use PRODUCT_USER_PROFILE (in system schema) to disable certain SQL and SQL*Plus commands in the SQL*Plus environment on a per-user basis. SQL*Plus, not Oracle, enforces this security. DBAs can even restrict access to the GRANT, REVOKE, and SET ROLE commands in order to control users' ability to change their database privileges.
The PRODUCT_USER_PROFILE table enables you to list roles which you do not want users to activate with an application. You can also explicitly disable use of various commands, such as SET ROLE. For example, you could create an entry in the PRODUCT_USER_PROFILE table to:

CE10 how to prevent user from view hostrical instance

hi,
We are currently using CE10. One of our user used search functionality in enterprise to search for reports start with 'employee' and it came back with all the crystal reports on the server that started with employees, even the one the user doesn't have access to. My greatest concern about this is that users can view historical instance and it is sensitive data. Does anybody know whether or not this is a bug in CE10? Is there a patch/fix for this? Is there any configuration change that I can make to
prevent users from being able search all the reports on the server rather just their own reports? Any help is greatly appreciated.

hi,
I have an EVERYONE group with limited access(view object), and EVERYONE group is added to each folder with NO ACCESS. If I revoke view object(explicitly denied) privilege from EVERYONE group, do I still need to remove EVERYONE group from each folder? When I'm at folder level in CMC, I see EVERYONE GROUP added, but when I tried to remove the EVERYONE GROUP, the EVERYONE group is not an option for removal. What am I missing?
Thanks for your help!

How to prevent user from creating jobs

Hi,
we need to prevent user from creating jobs on a dev enviorement. It's a 10.2.0.4 database standard on linux 64bits.
Their schema has only connect and resource roles. Is there a way to prevent them from creating jobs? In 11g it's the CREATE JOB permission, but in 10g i'm not sure how can i do this.
Thanks for any ideas!

On 10g it's probably the CREATE JOB as well.

How to prevent users from creating new folders in share folder directory?

Hello guys
I'd like to know How to prevent users from creating new folders in share folder directory but still keep their power of creating new folders in their personal 'my folder'?
I tried changing the 'manage privilage ---- create folder' to deny certain user accounts, but by doing so, it also stops the user from creating new folders in their 'my folder', which is not good..
I also tried going into these share folders and tried different access types such as 'change/delete', 'read', 'traverse folder' etc, but none of it work ideally. The 'change/delete' access still allows them to create new folders, 'read' access prevents creating new folders but also take away their power of saving reports..
Any thoughts on how to take away their ability to ONLY create new folders in share folder areas without affecting their other privileges?
Please advise
Thank you

Easy, on the shared folders root folder only give them 'read' or 'traverse folder' but on the the folder inside the shared folders root folder give them 'change/delete'. That means they can change anything inside those folders but not create any folders at the shared folders root level.
