Slide Numbers in T.O.C.

Another easy yes/no question.  Can I have the slide numbers display in the T.O.C. without having them as part of the slide name?  I (or more correctly, the instructors) want the slide numbers in the TOC but I don't want them in the on-slide title which I populate via calling a variable since I have the number presented elswhere on the slide also populated via a variable "sldnumber of totalslides" (not the real variables but you know which one I mean).  I guess could manually enter the on-slide title if I had to have the number included in the slide name for it to display in TOC but would prefer not to.  Am I missing a check box somewhere?
Thanks in advance
-Eric-

The TOC items are populated by the Slide Name as shown in the filmstrip view.  The on slide title caption has no effect on the TOC.
Once you reset the TOC to show selected slide names, you can double-click items in the TOC to edit the name without affecting the slide names shown in the filmstrip.
Not sure if this was what you were after.  I found your description a little confusing.

  • For Keynote: How do I start slide numbers on the third slide?

    I want the page numbers to start on the third slide, not the first. Is this possible?

    click delete. it doesn't affect the other slides' numbers.
    This doesn't achieve the original request, "page numbers to start on the third slide"
    what you suggest just deletes numbers 1 & 2.

  • Can I combine project files to fix slide numbering

    Hi All,
    I have slide numbering in the format x of y on all except the title slide. Of course this means that the first page of content is labelled 2 of Y. I ahve created a separate project with the title slide pointing to the content project, but can't get Multi SCO packager to work as I thought it should. In particular, I don't want the additional TOC created. Is there any way to do what I want? With Multi SCO? Or another tool?
    Regards

    Hi SharpieJeff,
    SG, who offered a simple script on another of your topics is one of the scripting wizards on the Numbers forum. I am beginning to find my way within a Numbers file but reading a bunch of files into 1 is something I haven't attempted yet. Numbers 3 is very script savvy so it can be a very useful tool. A script I am using with some frequency updates certain popups on several sheets in a file.
    One helpful website is http://macosxautomation.com/applescript/firsttutorial/index.html
    You need to know that each Numbers file or document can contain many sheets. Each of those sheets can contain many tables. You might also hear a file refered to as a spreadsheet. The distinctions will be important if you being to script.

  • Aggregator Slide Numbering (Captivate CPT 5.5)

    Aggregator seems to work fine. Two things I noticed, one of which is a question:
    The CPT movie fills the (webpage) screen at first but when all the individual SWF of the aggregated project finish downloading the CPT movie "shrinks" to the development size (in this case 800x600). I wonder why it is large at first (almost like "full screen" but more like full webpage) and then reverts to the development size.
    The slide number variable on each slide of each module (movie or SWF) only counts the slides in the specific module. When the next module starts, the slide number is zero. It makes sense that it would do this but I wonder if it is possible to do two different things instead:
    Index from one (1) instead of zero (0), and
    Count all slides, across modules, in successive order so if module 1 is 10 slides and module 2 is 5 slides, the last slide played would be slide number 15.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Michael,
    Cannot give you an answer on your first question.
    About your second question: are you showing the slide numbers to the user in a Text Caption? In that case the quickest way would be to calculate the number by an advanced action. It is possible to pass data from one file to another (like the total number of slides in the previous file), but then you'll need a widget from cpguru - Michael Lund:

  • Change the "playback bar" to show slide numbering?

    I am using Adobe Captivate 5 and outputting the CBTs as flash files.  Is there a way to change the “playback bar” to show slide numbering.  For example “Slide 1 of 15?”
    I played around with “variables” but this allows you to put a slide number on the slide itself and not on the playback bar.  Do you have any recommendations?

    You'll need a programmer to change the playbar (Flash) in that case.
    An alternative could be to put the playbar in overlay, don't stretch it over the total width of the slide, and add the solution with system variables at the same height as the playbar.
    TOC provides also slide numbers, and could act as an alternative for navigation.

  • White slide numbers in mac keynote remain black on ipad

    Can anyone explain to me why slide numbers formatted to be white in the master pages on the mac are black when i open the same keynote file on the iPad?

    Yes. Deeply annoying. I've just encountered this too. Why won't it at least maintain formatting that has been applied in Keynote on the Mac. How difficult could it be?

  • Slide numbers and Quiz slides in Captivate 8

    How do I add slide numbers to Captivate?
    Also, in my course, I need to add quiz questions and then final test questions. Quiz questions are not added into the final score, but final test would be tabulated into the final course score.
    How do I do this? (I noticed that with survey questions, there is not a review page to show the correct answer. Survey questions also seem to still be included in graded question score reporting.)
    Any guidance would be much appreciated!
    Thank you

    There are several system variables available. I have upgraded my list for CP8 and will publish it soon. But those you need are already in a post about CP6: System variables in Captivate 6 - Captivate blog
    For slide number you need cpInfoCurrentSlide, which starts with 1 (most numbering starts with 0). Insert that var in a text container, using the X button in the Style tab of the properties panel,
    the Character portion.
    As for the Quiz question:  you can uncheck to include a score in the Quiz total. Advanced Interaction panel (F9) is a good place to check all scored objects, and to see whether they are included in the Quiz total or not. Most quizzing system variables will adapt to the situation, score and percentage, maximum possible score will not take into account the questions that are not adding their score to the total score. However some variables will include the knowledge questions: total number of questions is one of them. This means that you have probably to tweak the score slide, to create a score slide yourself. Check the same list with system variables to create a custom score slide. Maybe this blog post can help, although the subject is bit different: Intermediate Score Slides - Captivate blog
    Another approach would be pretest slides, but it has a lot of limitations: navigation will disappear, pretest slides have to be together at start of the course.

  • Slide numbers for printing

    When one chooses “print slide numbers“ in the print dialogue box is it possible to format the font used and the position on the page in which the page number will appear.

    Hi Joe,
    Numbers operates on WYSIWYG.
    Go View > Show Print View to see how the document will appear on the page(s).
    To see the margins and header/footer spaces, go View > Show Layout.
    If you have a single table that fits on a page, you can then select and drag the table to the center of the page.
    When the table is centered vertically, you'll see a vertical blue alignment guideline appear.
    When it's centered horizontally, a horizontal guideline will appear.
    Simulated appearance when the table is centered in the print space is as shown below:

  • Quiz slide numbers not correct

    Captivate v5.5
    I created a project in v4 that had some click boxes and then some quiz slides and I have enable the "show progress".
    I upgraded the project to v5.5 and on reaching the quiz slides their numbering is all out of sync.
    I recall this was something to do with there being check boxes in the project - but for the life of me I cannot remember to make sure the quiz progress does not get mixed up with the check boxes.
    Can anyone please remind me how to correct this in v5.5 /
    Noel

    If indeed creating scored interactions means they are included with the quiz progress bar, but you only want that progress bar to show the actual quiz slides, it seems you have two options:
    -use a different 'progress' method - either just put in a simple indicator (like hardcode the page or a graphic image on each slide) or try your hand at a widget.
    -don't include any scored interactions in the lesson outside the quiz slides.
    Out of curiosity, why do you want to have scored interactions outside the quiz slides? You want the final lesson score to include results of those interactions as well as the quiz itself? Is the learner aware of this? Or you simply want to get those interactions tracked to an LMS for reporting...?

  • How can I make automatic slide numbering accessible to screen readers?

    Currently using a built-in variable (Slide $$cpInfoCurrentSlide$$ of $$rdinfoSlideCount$$) but this is not being exposed to the JAWS reader.

    Thanks you Lilybiri, in the web my project play automatic, but in mobile devices dont. And a play butom apear out of no where in de center of the slide.

  • Keynote advanced slide numbering "X of Y"

    Does someone here know if it is possible to put something like "Page X of Y" on the slides where Y is the automatic number of all slides?
    Thanks
    p.

    X is possible.  From the Inspector Window, look in the slide tab (second from left) and click on appearance on the top.  There should be an option there for "slide number."  This option may need to be checked for every slide, which you can do all at once by highlighting every slide in the left frame (click on one slide, then command+A) and then going through the inspector to option in the "slide number."
    As for Y, you may have to place that in manually using a text box.

  • Change slide size in 2 slide/page layout?

    Several folks indicated that you can use the "layout" view to produce a handout with 2 slides per page. But there is still quite a bit of white space. How can you increase the slide size on the page to make them bigger? Also, is there a way to add page numbers to the page (I already have slide numbers).

    Rocketscience,
    welcome to the Keynote Discussions.
    Well, I think the border around the two slides I print is just enough to punch and file the paper.
    Oh, wait, I'm using [DIN] A4 format. Well, try this:
    * In the print dialog choose Layout from the "Copies & Pages"
    dropdown box and set "Pages per Sheet" to 2
    (you know that but I repeat it for other readers)
    * Choose Paper Handling from the same dropdown box and mark
    "Scale to fit paper size:". Select A4 from the corresponding
    dropdown box (yes, even if you don't use A4 format). Unmark
    "Scale down only".
    * Print you slides.
    There's no possibility to add page (sheet) numbers in the print dialog. You could prepare a file in Keynote or Pages that only prints a page number and print these numbers in a second run on you handouts. Not very elegant but maybe better than to paginate with a counter

  • Slide order in the timeline

    I have been shown how to do a very specific task in Flash Pro CS5. I have five slides in my timeline, with buttons that include links to product pages on our website. These five slides comprise a movie, with each slide being displayed for a few seconds and it repeatedly cycles through the five slides in a banner at the top of our home page.
    In addition there is a navigation bar below my slide images with a play and pause option, plus the five slide numbers so the viewer can navigate from slide to slide manually.
    I have been asked to change the order of the slides so that slide #5 now becomes slide #1 and slide #1 becomes slide #2, and so on. I can easily switch the images and links so that the slides are in a different order in my file, but now the navigation bar below does not work. In the Actions panel, the #1 button in the navigation bar still appears to be linked to slide 1, which now has the new images, yet the nav bar does not respond to clicks anymore.
    How was my nav bar disabled when I switched the images and links around between the slides? and how can I correct this?
    (Keep in mind, I know NOTHING else about Flash except how to replace the images and change the button links in each slide, which I do monthly, as this is the top banner on our website.)

    Thanks so much for your reply, Rob.
    The slides are on the timeline and each one is displayed as the playback head moves from one frame to another. I do this in my file by dragging the red rectangle with the red line extending from below it across the timeline, which is on a layer that the original author named MC Content. However, when I go to the layer called Scene 1 where the navigation bar is, the red rectangle at top will not move when I try to drag it.
    I don't know what the action script does except to link my button to a page on our website. The code looks like this for slide 1.
    slide1_1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myButtonFunction5_1);
    function myButtonFunction5_1(event: MouseEvent) {
    var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.tobaccofreecatalog.org/ProductDetails.aspx?id=2&itemno=J660");
    navigateToURL(request,"_self");
    I don't know if the slides use actionscript to show and hide each one.
    Now that I look at it, maybe all I need to do is change myButtonFunction5_1 to myButtonFunction1_1 on the above code?
    I don't know how to answer your last question. The individual images for each slide are jpegs I created in InDesign, but I don't know how they are referenced or what that means.
