Slider inside tableviewcell

I have a UISlider inside a UITableviewCell and now I want to use the action "ValueChanged" to show the value for the user inside a label in the UITableviewCell. But the label will only update when using [self.tableview reloadData] and using this with ValueChanged-action doesn't seem to work (understandable as the tableview then will reload at the same time using the slider).
Hmm... How can I accomplish this?
Thanks really much for your help!

Without seeing your code and nib files I can't tell you exactly how to do this, but the general approach you should take is to find a way to update the label without reloading the whole cell.

Update a slider insider an array of clusters

I have an array of clusters. Each clusters has several controls, one of
which is a slider. I want to change the scale of the slider
dynamically, since I have one slider per variable in my system. I'm
using a for loop to access each cluster in the array and update the
scale of the slider to match the range of the variable. But when doing
this, the scales in all the sliders are updated at once, thus all
sliders end up having the range of the last variable.
Is there a way to avoid this automatic update of all the elements in an array?

In the unlikely chance that your array size is fixed you could work with a cluster of clusters
You can then use the Controls[] property to access the individual maximum and scales property nodes.
Incidently I had seen this before http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=170076&query.id=49401#M170076. There are some tips on how to get around the array to cluster limitations. They might apply to you.

I want to edit the text within Captivate after importing slides from PowerPoint

Hi,
Background: I import slides from a .pptx file. Once the slides are created inside of Captivate, I want to edit the text on the slide, but I can't; it's all become part of the background. So, I am left with two options: 1) open the .pptx file, edit the text, and then re-import the slide 2) Manually create everything on the slide inside of Captivate. This is so labor-intensive. I was hoping Captivate 7 would address this, but what seemed could possible address it - High Fidelity - isn't available for mac. I'm sure others have this problem too.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe you'd better look at Adobe Presenter if you need only to convert a PPT to an eLearning course?
Captivate is much more powerful, but its principal goal is not to convert PPT's. Each PPT-slide is converted into a movie slide so that all animations will be transferred properly. Personally I never create presentations in PPT but always directly in CP. You could import only the backgrounds, and create the other objects in CP. Images can be imported into the library, audio as well.

Can I create a Flash button and use it to navigate to the next slide of a PowerPoint Presentation?

Hello all,
I've been having a bit of a hard time understanding how to get a button which I have created in Flash to navigate to the next slide of the PowerPoint presentation which it has been added into. I'm fairly new to Flash, so I believe that this is slightly out of my natural skill range, so hopefully someone will be able to help.
I understand that I somehow need to make use of fscommand in ActionScript, but I'm not sure how I can get Flash and PowerPoint to communicate between themselves. If anyone could write a walkthrough on how to do this, I would be bery grateful.
I'm using Flash MX 2004 7.0 and Powerpoint 2003.
Thanks

Hi. Why not to make the whole presentation in FLASH? What you have to do is to import all the slides inside FLASH. Then place one by one in the stills and then create the code to make the stills advance and show the slides by means of the button. The code for the button goes as follows:
on (release) {
nextFrame();
to introduce this code make sure you press the button and no the frame.
Then in order to make the presentation open and cover the screen, no matter how big it is, you need to enter the following code in the first frame:
stop();
fscommand ("showmenu",false);
fscommand ("fullscreen", true);
You will need also a button to quit the aplication. This is the code:
on (release) {
stop();
fscommand ("quit");
Now write all of this in your application and let me know your experience. MamenFLASH$

WOW Slider to add a slideshow to iWeb

I came across WOW slider and wanted to put an automatic starting slide show into my site, however I am having some troubles and hope you may be able to help.
I have created the slideshow and now want to place it WITHIN a page I already have on my site. This position is exactly the same place as the original video I have (see http://www.senkkifurniture.com.au/collection.html).
I am following the help page Part 7 as it reads below http://wowslider.com/index.html#support)
+Add WOW Slider inside your own page.+
+WOW Slider generates a special code. You can paste it in any place on your page where you want to add image slider.+
+ * Export your photo slider using WOW Slider in any test folder on a local drive.+
+ * Open the generated index.html file in any text editor.+
+ * Copy all code for WOW Slider from the HEAD and BODY tags and paste it on your page in the HEAD tag and in the place where you want to have a jquery slider (inside the BODY tag).+

I am using iWeb to build my website, have an iMac and run OS X 10.6.6. I run Firefox. Wow version 1.3.
I am confused when it comes to “Copy all code for WOW Slider from the HEAD and BODY tags and paste it on your page in the HEAD tag and in the place where you want to have a jquery slider (inside the BODY tag).”. I have exported the wow slider to a test folder and opened the index.html. I’ve viewed the html which reads

I have then copied the html above in bold and placed it within a HTML snippet where I want it on my page, pressed apply then uploaded it to the net (see http://www.senkkifurniture.com.au/screen_dump.html). However this is how it comes out http://www.senkkifurniture.com.au/collection_2.html. There are no photos and definitely no slideshow.
I would SO appreciate your help as i am about to pull my hair out.
Thanking you in advance.

Thanks Koeklin & Wyodor your answers have put me one step forward...yay
http://www.senkkifurniture.com.au/collection_2.html
I removed all the #'s from this line koeklin said however the link still seems to be there. I don't want any links, just photos fading from one to another.
When i removed the whole line as in 2a (above in Koeklins answer) and the "a" bit all the images disappeared. Sorry couldn't cut and paste the sections exactly as they turned into links when i previewed it.
Is there anyway to get rid of the wowslider.com on the photo? See http://www.senkkifurniture.com.au/collection_2.html

Slide presentation question

I have a slide presentation that I created that uses arrows or the spacebar to click from slide to slise. Now the client wants it to play automatically with no user interaction required. Does anyone know how to convert this? I'm in Flash CS4.
Thanks!

If you are using AS3 then add following code. The initial code generates timer of 1 second. Add your code for moving to next slide inside function "timerHandler()" and you should be done.
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
    myTimer.addEventListener("timer", timerHandler);
    myTimer.start();
    function timerHandler(event:TimerEvent):void {
            trace("timerHandler: " + event);
Refer to below live doc for indepth details:

Audio not working on one slide when publishing to HTML5

I'm in Captivate 8. In one slide in my project no slide audio will play when published to html5. I've tested in Chrome and IE 11. In Chrome, I see the 'speaker' icon that appears when audio or video is running but no sound comes up. (The speaker appears for the length of the audio file ~5 sec) All other slides are fine, and the slide audio plays correctly if I use F3 or F10 to preview the slide inside Captivate.
The slide in question is a 'menu' only reached via an advanced action. I know the advanced action is not the culprit - if I change it to jump to a different slide, the audio on that slide plays without problem.
Similarly, I've verified that if I place this audio file on a different slide, it plays fine, but if I add a different audio file to this slide the problem remains. If I create a button on the problem slide to trigger the audio it plays, (but is unhelpful since I want the audio to play automatically when the user enters the slide).
I've tried removing/re-adding the audio, recreating the slide from a copy, setting the audio to play via an "on enter" advanced action, and adding a play trigger to the advanced action that jumps to this slide. Nothing I've tried gets the audio to play.
I'd welcome any suggestions of what might be happening or how to fix this.
Thank you,
Jenny Nilsson

Hi Lieve,
Thank you, yes, if I view using f12 the audio works correctly.
The "exitBranch" action is associated with a continue button at the end of each branch. If all branches have been visited, it jumps to a new slide, if there are unvisited branches, it jumps back to the menu slide where the audio is not working. (If I edit the action to jump somewhere else the audio will work for the different slide.)
The action was created from a shared action and my colleague and I have used it in multiple other modules without this error.
Thanks,
Jenny N

Text caption character/space limitation

This is probably so obvious that I'm missing it (trying too hard!). I have a TEB that is assigned a variable to return a user's input from the TEB (upon submit) to the next slide, inside a Text Caption box. The variable from the TEB is simply, v_scen1_cp; the capture box is assigned $$v_scen1_cp$$. Everything is good, right? Here's the probem: if a user puts more than 12 characters in the TEB, the Text Caption box on the following slide will not capture all the characters - it drops the characters if more than 12. I would like to be able to assign up to 20 characters to the Text Caption box. Any suggestions?

If you go to the "Format" section of the text box properties and insert your variable by using the "x" icon then right below where you select the variable name there is a field called "Maximum length". The default is 15 chars so you can change it to 50 or 100 if you like and then it will all be displayed in your text caption.

The MORE buttons aren't images. They are in the HTML and appear to be styled with CSS to look like button images.
     <span><b>more</b></span>
Unfortunately, Design View is incapable of displaying CSS border-radius, gradients, shadows and other CSS level 3 properties.   That's why we have Live View which behaves more like a real browser.
If you can't live with this, disable CSS in DW by going to View > Style Rendering > untick display styles.
Or, use a Design-Time Style Sheet that contains no CSS level 3 properties.

Importing Keywords from other DAM Software (Cumulus)

Hi,
A client is currently switching from analog to digital photography. She is a professional garden photographer. The switch to digital photography comes along with establishing a raw processing workflow and therefore she is impressed with Lightroom's integration of DAM and raw processing.
Before she was filing her large portfolio of color slides, inside a Cumulus image database, using small scans of her slides for orientation in the database and creating contact sheets for her clients. In the Cumulus database she has established a large hierachical keyword vocabulary, containing flower and plant species, their genus, family, order, class, phylum etc., you probably know what I mean. Some of the keywords have associated synonyms.
The new Lightroom catalog will only contain the new digital images, so that the old images from the Cumulus database will not be migrated into the new Lightroom catalog. Of course the client wants to import the Cumulus keyword hierarchy into the Lightroom catlog.
I have the following questions now:
1.) Is there a *practical* (I do not mean technical) limit to the amount of keywords Lightroom can handle (speed)?
2.) How can we import a keyword vocabulary from an external program into Lightroom? Is there any base format, such as CSV, which we could use? The Cumulus version the client uses does not support XMP, and since XMP only relates to a particular image, that would not help anyway. Where is the keyword vocabulary stored? Has somebody experience with such a migration issue?
3.) I have notice that Lightroom supports synonyms to keywords. However, I have not found any way to use them. My impression was that they were not regarded in keyword or text-based searches. Maybe I overlooked something.
So, I hope anybody has some ideas.
Kind regards

Hi
I try to give you few brief answers.
1) I have almost 1000 keywords (including synonyms) and I don't have problems. But at least some previous versions of Lightroom were unusable with controlled vocabularity keyword set which contains something like 11000 keywords. I haven't recently heard any comments about large quantity of keywords. So someone with more experience should comment on that.
2) You can import keyword hierarchy to Lightroom from text file. File should have keywords in tab intented hierarchy, with one keyword in line. If I recollect correctly the file should be in UTF-8 character set (this is important if you have some non ascii characters in keywords). Synonyms are marked with {} and keywords that are not exported with [].
3) Synonyms are written as keywords when images are exported. As far as I know current search tool does not support synonyms (yes, this is weird).
Hope this helps at least a bit.

How do I programmatically change progress bar limit?

Hello all. I have a custom control and one of the indicators is a progress bar. The bar is used to show the position of a life test fixture as the fixture moves up and down. I would like to have the max limit of the bar to be set by the user. The user enters a number and the bar maximum will be that number. That way the bar is more indicative of actual fixture movement. How would I programatically do this?
I read about using the Range property, but I can't seem to access it. Is this because the progress bar is part of the cluster? Would I need to separate the progress bar from the cluster, get the Range property set up, then put the bar back into the cluster?
My problem here is that since this is a custom control, it is set as a typedef, with my vi using 12 copies of it. So if I can't get the typedef to accomplish what I want, I guess I'll have to break the link between the typedef and the vi, go into the vi, and edit all 12 custom controls to do it.

Hi Dhouston
please find the ZIP file attached. somehow i can't upload a VI
Eventhough the cluster is a typdef control, you can still right click the slide inside the cluster and create a property node.
hope this helps

WILL FINAL EXPORT FROM QUICKTIME OVERWRITE OTHERS

I have a project that was created using jpegs and mp4's that were exported using the H.264 format, I initially exported entire project with H.264 only to not be able to play on LG Google TV... after talking to LG, realized I needed to save project with video format of MPEG 4 so I did using MPEG 4 BASIC using quicktime out of I-movie... however, I did not convert the mp4 slides inside project to MPEG-4, they were left in the H.264 format will my final export to the MPEG 4 format overwrite those inside the project to also be MPEG 4 so that the tv will play them?? The entire project is a slide show.

Thank you for the info... I have done just what you suggested, but left the mp4 inside the slide show, saved/imported with the h.264 formatting hoping the final export to MPEG 4 BASIC for the entire slideshow would overwrite those MP4's used in slideshow (that were exported as H.264, and then imported back in for final presentation export). I am wanting it to be played on LG Google TV and know now that the tv doesn't recognize the H.264 video formatting so thus my re-export of project using MPEG 4 BASIC, tv will read this format codec... along with several others but not H.264... it will read H.63 & H.64 along with DIVX 3.11, 4.12, 5 & 6 The only thing at this point that I can figure is that the mp4's i used as individual slides with moving parts and exported using H.264 then re imported to use also need to be re exported using the MPEG 4 BASIC so that hopefully I won't receive the message of "This movie can't be viewed/played on this television/device" stumped and hoping for a resolution...

How to embed Adobe Edge HTML5 animations into carousel instead of images.

Is the above question possible? I cannot figure out a way to embed any of my html5 animations (created in Adobe Edge) into a carousel. I have tried creating a nested slider inside of Edge, and I have tried hard coding it, but can not figure out an appropriate solution.

Nancy,
Slideshow is now working great, but I cannot get my animations to exist within the slides themselves. I tried them inside this html but not inside the slideshow, and they work fine, but if I try to add them into the slider, nothing happens and that particular slide is simply blank. I have only tried the first one but it is not working. Here is my code:

Raw 3.1 professional custom profiles for highend digital cameras

I have a few questions for thomas knoll:
I would like to start with a statement here:
WHY ??? ....all this messy color calibration with slider inside the raw 3.1 plugin , when it could be so easy and simple :
what you can find already inside high end digital back software like sinar's capture shop or the leaf capture software, is nothing more and nothing less than a plugin called profilemaker , written by greatg mac beth. the leader in this field nowadays.
a software ,which again against license fees, is being implemented in those softwares.
what does it exactly do?...you might ask....
well, here a very simplified explanation :
for ex., you start your shoot with a shot of greatg color chart (24 patch or the big one), and that very" licensed" plugin called profilemaker will calculate a 100% precise and accurate color correction in the form of a custom icc-profile for you.
in just a few seconds.
so that that red from the chart that you took a picture of, is going to be that very same red in the final file in photoshop.
it puts something like a correction curve over your original raw file, so that it matches that very color from chart you just shot.
such colors is a game of numbers and formulas, and certainly not a slider function to fumble around with, where one person will say this red is correct, and another says no, this red is the right one.
something like profilemaker is incredibly accurate , because its pure mathematics, and not a form of lottery...!!!with an infinit number of possibilities when one would use sliders like in raw 3.1..
sliders that fighteach other, especially the ones in the calibrate tab section.
it takes a few second for a profilemaker software to make an 100% acurate custom color correction , in the form of a custom icc profile for your shot / and or digital camera.
if you have ever experienced this shortcut and these amazingly beautiful rich colors you can achieve with such a software, you will NEVER EVER go back.
I am not sure why adobe has not come up yet with their "own" version of such a profilemaker portion inside raw plugin 3.x.
they certainly have the know how to do this.
i would dare to state here, that it probably would take them only a few days to implement such a feature.
or , why adobe is not implementing an optional upgrade with "gretags" profilemaker , inside their raw plugin.
I certainly can count hundreds , probably thousands of photographers, who would be more than happy to pay for this feature. even if the license fees would be above 300$ for such an upgrade.
dear thomas knoll,
why have you not yet done so.....>>???
I hope that very, very soon you will consider such a suggestion.
in the meantime ..............i cross fingers......
very sincerely,

I have done many DlogH curves, and at one point, owned the Zakia /Todd book. No, the toe does not change much with increased development, but it does change. And yes the changes beyond middle gray (Zone 5; 18% gray)are greater than below, but again, it does change. Film speed does change as a function of development, and film speed is based (variously over the years) on just how the film comes out of the toe, it is inescapable that the curves pivot about the toe, roughly speaking, that is. The curves not only pivot there, the toe can increase in F+F value thereby showing a vertical displacement on the plot. If you take individual plots of a particular film over differing development changes, and overlay the curves such that the toes merge (roughly!), you will see that the slope of the curve does rise from the toe. I have lots of graphs in storage if you would like to see them.
I am familiar with AA's procedures. I studied and used them from about 1961. One of the reasons I ran so many curves is that I was interested in the so called compensating development, such as water bath, special formulas etc. I ran the curves on Plus-X, Tri-X, Tri-X professional, Panatomic-X, and other emulsions whose names I have forgotten. What I found out is that Plus-X didn't respond to compensating development at all. I could lay the reference curve over the DUT and they would match exactly. Quite a shock. I remember a film rated at ASA 250 that responded admirably, but way too grainy, even in 4x5.
I used two methods. One was to contact print a step tablet, the other was to shoot the tablet using an old diffusion head as a light source. I could tell how much support in the shadows I was getting from flare that way. Oh, and the one way that always worked was pre-exposure, sometimes post exposure. I could lift the toe nicely that way.
Plus-X had the straightest middle section of all. Ruler straight. Tri-X had a significantly different toe than Tri-X Professional.
Every meter measures luminance and can allow you to measure the scene dynamic range. A one percent spotmeter becomes an averaging meter for extreme telephotos, just as there is no such thing as a panoramic camera with a fixed lens. It's just cropping for the panorama, and whether a handheld meter is averaging or spot depends on the relative focal length of the taking lens.
The idea that a hand held averaging meter cannot give you the dynamic range of a scene is nonsense. Have you ever read "The Negative", first edition of AA? He explains how to use a meter to obtain dynamic range, if you cannot do that, you cannot even begin to use the zone system. He even described using a tube set into the meter element to do a rudimentary spot meter. I had several Weston Masters which had this homemade accessory. it was pretty neat, but boy, did it rob you of sensitivity!
Look, a metering system is simply some sort of light sensitive material which provides a change in some electrical parameter for a corresponding change in the light level. On it's own, you would simply see a needle move across the face plate. Putting numbers on the face plate corresponding to some light unit (Lux, Ft. Candles, Candles/ft^2, etc) allows you to quantify the responses. What you ultimately do with these numbers is one of the biggest parts of sensitometry as applied to photography. As you say, that application to digital is different than to film, but only because the demands of the digital medium requires it. I could just as easily build an exposure system for film based specifically on highlight placement. Film chose a different route, and, so far as I can tell, the optimum route. If digital and film had developed concurrently, perhaps we would reconcile the two systems so as to avoid the condition we find ourselves, at least those of us raised on film. The new guys, well, they will probably chortle over the Dodge/Burn application. They will have no appreciation for negatives. It took a while in the darkroom with the counterintuitive nature of dodge/burn when I started up.
I am enjoying this exchange, Jeff. It clears the air, and reminds me that in order to most easily grasp the digital concepts, I am better off with my engineering hat than the photographer's hat. I'm in my late 60's and it's too easy to slip into old patterns. Changing hats works well, and I am glad I can do it.
Cheers, and goodnight! (my,oh my! It's 1:17AM here!)

Responsive design and interacting elements

Is there anyway inside of Adobe Edge Animate CC 2014 for elements inside a responsive project to interact with each other. For example, I want the text to be able to condense (width-wise) as I resize the width (%), and doing so will increase the text height-wise. I want that new height to influence the location of an element below it and have that element be pushed down.
This leads to another question, does the height of the parent (stage) increases as well to contain the new height of a child element (text, div, etc...)? It seems to me that a lot of these elements inside are placed absolutely, or fixed relative to parents. So is there anyway inside a responsive document to have elements still be in the normal flow?

Steve,
You can record software simulations slides inside a responsive project, in 8.0.1.242, using the Slides button, Software simulation. But do not insert a separately created normal software simulation project in a responsive project. If you created it as a normal project, it will not have the responsive styles, will not adapt. The software slides created in a responsive project, will offer you a zoom/pan suggestion for the mobile breakpoint view that has a much smaller total resolution than Tablet and Primary. You can always customize the suggested pan/zoom.
