Slideshow widget layered over layout

The slideshow widget frame is plopped over part of the page layout. Can it be moved and kept beyond the page to allow working on the layout underneath or do I have to move it and bring it back for each session?

Hi,
If you are using a lightbox widget then you can click on the blue options button and uncheck 'Show lightbox part while editing'. Otherwise you will have to move it everytime.

How do I delete a Muse slideshow widget from my layout?

How do I delete a Muse slideshow widget from my layout?

I eventually figured it out: select the widget/click on edit in the toolbar/click on "clear." Selecting the widget and pressing the delete key, which was the first thing I tried, did not work for me.

November Update Erased Slideshow Widget

My site is PandV.org. On there I have 4 picture galleries each using a basic slideshow widget. They resided on a separate galleries page, but single-picture links to the galleries page are on the home page. The same for both my desktop and phone versions (I have no distinct tablet version).
When I upgraded to the November update, every one of these slideshow widgets simply vanished from the galleries page, on both my desktop and phone versions!
Even more odd, the pictures on the home page that linked to the galleries page had also vanished, on both desktop and phone versions!
So, I called up the version of the site in muse made before the November update. I went to the galleries page and copied and pasted the slideshow widgets to from the old desktop galleries page to the November update galleries page. The paste worked perfectly.
But there's more: now, the pictures and links on the home page re-appeared, in perfect place. And the same is true for the phone version.
The problem seems solved to me, but I thought you'd want to know of this decidedly odd behavior.

I'm not sure, but I think so, yet I really don't know how.
As per my description of the problem, when I pasted the slideshow widget from the working pre-november muse file to the November release file from which they had disappeared, it asked me if i wanted to unlock the relevant layers. I didn't understand why that question came up, since as far as I was aware all layers were visible and unlocked.
So, I told it to unlock what it needed to and the paste went ahead as normal.
Yet, aside from that, it is still a mystery to me how the one paste operation I described fixed the missing slideshow widgets on both layouts (desk and phone) gallery pages, and put back the images that linked to them on the home page.
I wish I could be of more help, but as I mentioned above, the non-working November update muse file doesn't exist anymore.
As always, thanks for your quick attention and commitment to make Muse a great product.
P.S.: I'm sure they were visible and working on the published site before the November update. It is the file file that uploaded that working site that I edited with the November update and noticed the problem. I check this site regularly and such an important part of it missing would have been noticed by me or my co-workers.

Captions in Lightbox Slideshow Widget

The metadata in my files have both a Title and a Caption, yet when i Add Images to the Lightbox Slideshow Widget, I am stuck with Lorem Ipsum on every photo. Do I have to add the Captions manually for every image?!

Can someone at Adobe please confirm that there is no reading of the image metadata. I thought it was limiting that it was only the caption field available. I am stunned if this is the case that no metadata is being read. I am working on a photo web site and got to the point of importing photos with the 'captions' checked. Huge surprise. It is hard to believe that something as fundamental as basic metadata fields (caption, title, filename, copyright) isn't pulled with the image and available as needed. C'mon, you are the company that has Photoshop and Lightroom. Do you guys talk to the other teams?
I was looking at Muse galleries as an alternative to the LR web module for 2 reasons: one is flexibility in layout, and the other is speed, since the LR gallery export cranks along at a glacial pace to the point of being almost unusable. And this is the LR4 upgrade; much slower than LR3. See the LR threads on this if you're interested. Still waiting for that fix.
The thought of manually entering caption info to a dozen galleries, each with 20 or 30 images, is nonsense. This makes Muse a non-starter for photo galleries. This is basic capability. Adobe should be embarrassed that LR4 doesn't do what it should in this regard, and that the feature needed don't even exist in Muse. Everyone expects a few bugs in the early days of a new software, but not missing essential, fundamental features to make web galleries useful.
Rant now over and I will happily apologize if the metada fields are, indeed, available. Please explain how. Thanks.

How do I set the default Hero image in a Muse slideshow widget when using Free Form Thumbnails?

Hello,
I am trying to find out how to set the default Hero image when using a Muse slideshow widget and in the Layout section I have the "Free Form Thumbnails"
box checked.
In other words, when the page loads I want to define which image displays as the first Hero image.
If I do not select the "Free Form Thumbnails" option, the top left Thumbnail image always displays first. This is fine.
But when I select the Free Form Thumbnails" checkbox I don't know how to define which image shows first as the Hero image.
I have a short video at this link where I illustrate the question:
http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.mp4
I have added a WMV video file at the link below:
http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.wmv
Okay… I think I've worked out how to do it!
[1] First have the "Free Form Thumbnails" box UNCHECKED.
[2] Organize the Thumbnails and place the image that you want to be the first Hero image when the page loads in the top left corner of the Thumbnails group.
[3] When you "Preview Site In Browser" the Thumbnail image in the top left corner will always display as the first Hero image.
[4] If you want "Free Form Thumbnails" go ahead now and SELECT that checkbox.
[5] Whichever image was in the top left of the Thumbnail group before you checked "Free Form Thumbnails" will still show up as the first Hero image when the page loads, regardless of where that thumbnail image is located within the Thumbnail images group.
Thanks very much.
Chris.

Hi,
The sequence of operation you are doing to set the home page for public users is correct. You are getting the login screen as the "custom page group" selected as "home page" has not been granted to public.
Also, while logging-out, it is normal behaviour to get the screen where it shows the list of partner applications from where user has been logged-out. When you click on "Return" button, you will get to the "home page" set above.
Hope it clarifies the things.

Is it possible to show a JLabel over another JLabel?

Solution 1:
JLabel is a container, So you can add any component on top of JLabel but normally it will not display but if you set any layout then you can see the added component.
    public static void solution1() {
     JFrame frame = new JFrame();
     frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
     JLabel bigImg = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("F:\\tmp\\bigImg.jpg"));
     JLabel logo = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("F:\\tmp\\logo.gif"));
     frame.getContentPane().add(bigImg, BorderLayout.CENTER);
     bigImg.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.RIGHT, 0, 0));
     bigImg.add(logo);
     frame.pack();
     frame.setVisible(true);
    }Disadvantage : if the label size was changed depends on the layout the position of the logo goes outside of the big image(in the above example maximize the window to see that issue).
Solution 2:
draw the logo image on top of the big image.
    public static void solution2() {
     JFrame frame = new JFrame();
     frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
     ImageIcon bigImg = new ImageIcon("F:\\tmp\\bigImg.jpg");
     ImageIcon logo = new ImageIcon("F:\\tmp\\logo.gif");
     int w = bigImg.getIconWidth();
     int h = bigImg.getIconHeight();
     BufferedImage bf = new BufferedImage(w, h, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
     Graphics2D g2d = bf.createGraphics();
     g2d.drawImage(bigImg.getImage(), 0, 0, frame);
     g2d.drawImage(logo.getImage(), 0, 0, frame);
     JLabel label = new JLabel(new ImageIcon(bf));
     frame.getContentPane().add(label, BorderLayout.CENTER);
     frame.pack();
     frame.setVisible(true);
    }Advantage : whenever the label component size changed the logo must be on the big image of the same position because the logo was painted on top of the big image.

Adobe Muse slideshow widget not working on Ipad

The Muse slideshow widget i'm using is working fine in desktop version (on my Imac and Macbook Pro Retina), but the targets (buttons) are not working when i open the website in my Safari Ipad. When i open in Ipad Chrome, it's working fine.
The address is http://www.safra7.com/clientes/pontual/linha_tempo
I can't figure what's wrong, after trying various solutions.
Thanks,

To answer your first question, a widget is essentially a app extension. Try the stock market app below, once you download it you'll be able to add a stock market widget to Notification Center. If the link below doesn't work go to the App Store and enter Stocks Widget by Peeksoft in the search field.

A better way to edit content within a slideshow widget?

Is there a better way to edit the content of slideshow widgets? I understand the way to see the content of a slideshow and edit it is by viewing thumbnails, but this is a very clunky way to be dealing with a lot of content! It would be super cool to be able to link an entire folder to a slideshow widget and have it update when changes are made in that folder. that way designers could organize their files in finder or bridge and then simply update the slideshow link - i would love that!

I was afraid of that...
I don't use lightroom or Photoshop. I used to be a Photoshop user until the cost became so prohibitive. I have since switched to using GIMP as my eternal editor, it's native files are .xcf (musch like the Photoshop .PSD) but Aperture doesn't support .xcf files and I doubt they ever will since GIMP is a free open source tool, rather than a commercial product.
I have been playing with 3.01 now for a few days and finding that the heal tool and burn and dodge tools seem to be improved. Even though in GIMP they were destructive to the original RAW file those items were noticeably better in the external editor.
Also, any extreme editing still needs to be done outside of Aperture, so I will take a Catapult or just keep my current workflow....

Why animated gifs disappear in slideshow widget?

I opened my project with new version of Muse 2014 but animated gifs on the slideshow widget disappear. They are already visible in previous version of Muse. I made a new slideshow and add some animated gif but there is a blank page when i preview the page. Is there a bug or am i doing something wrong?

The exclamation mark is an indication that the file path/link between the thumbnail and the full size master has been broken. Do the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

Thumbnail images of Thumbnail Slideshow Widget not releasing Tooltips

I'm running Muse v2.2 Build 6 CL 770942 and had mistakenly assigned a number of tooltips to a number of thumbnail images of a thumbnail slideshow widget. After deleting those tooltips via the contextual menu on selected thumbnails and the "edit image properties" item in that menu, and after re-publishing to my Creative Cloud-hosted non-live site, and after refreshing my page in Safari 6.0.1 (8536.26.14) running OS 10.8.2, the tooltips are still there. This seems to be a bug.

Sachin,
Here's the link to my page: http://van-garde2businesscatalystcom.businesscatalyst.com/ads-2.html
I cleared the cache to no avail.
I tried opening the page in Firefox 15.0.1, and the tooltips not only still appear when I rollover the thumbnails, but all thumbnails, menu links, and heroes are totally off the page to the right!!
Help!!!

I am making a graduation video for my cousin using Final Cut Pro. I have photos layered over videos, and I was wanted to find out how you can add a border around the photos so they stand off of the video. Anyone know what I could do?

I am making a graduation video for my cousin using Final Cut Pro. I have photos layered over videos, and I was wanted to find out how you can add a border around the photos so they stand off of the video. Anyone know what I could do?

You would need an image editor to edit the images and add a border to the image first before importing them into Final Cut.

My slideshow widget is stuck in the loading position.

Hi,
So I first uploaded my site to http://debijlgolf.businesscatalyst.com/frankrijk.html and the slideshow widget on the page is working perfectly.
But now that I have uploaded the website to it's final destination, http://www.debijlgolf.nl/frankrijk.html, the slideshow widget just keeps showing me the loading thing.
As far as I can tell the source code for both pages is the same (I also didn't change anything since uploading it to business catalyst), so does anyone know what the problem could be?
Thanks so much!

Ok the image aren't loading.
ithink the problem is the file name with spaces.
bc has no problem with them and your server is.... Just a guess
http://debijlgolf.businesscatalyst.com/images/saint%20junien%205.jpg
http://www.debijlgolf.nl/images/saint%20junien%205.jpg
You should remove the spaces from your original file names...
it's know to cause problems in some cases
Do not use any spaces
Most operating systems can handle documents with spaces in the file name without a problem, but it's not a good idea for Web page documents. The problem is that when a URL is displayed it is usually displayed with an underline. And so many people interpret a space as being the underscore character instead, and so can't get to your page. Plus, in order to use a space in a URL or Web file name, many browsers require that that space be encoded- either as a plus-sign or %20.
Hope this helps

Can i create a button that links to the slideshow widget

I am creating a portfolio site for a class. It is a one page site, One of my sections is going to be my "work" section. I want to categorize my work, So I have made buttons that pertain to each category of work. Is there anyway that I can link this to the slideshow widget. When one of the category buttons is clicked I want the slideshow widget to pop up. Is this possible? I can not find a tutorial and I am very new to Muse. Thank you!

Hi,
You can't directly associate a button with a slideshow. However, you can embed slideshow in a tooptip target and add the button to the tooltip trigger as mentioned in this post : Re: How do i create a button which will show new content on same page?

Need help with slideshow widget appearing online

Hey out there a big thanks in advance for this.
I have slideshow widgets set up for my artwork and graphics pages on my website and they were working fine before the last Muse update. I then went into Muse to add more images to said slideshows and export and upload them just like normal. Everything went fine and then I finished uploading and viewed my site and the widgets did not appear...I also experienced some margin formatting difficulties but that is probably unrelated. I have not changed any permissions and have not changed anything besides adding in a few images only to one of the two slideshow widgets. I have completely deleted and re-exported and re-uploaded everything as in all of the files twice and still nothing. I really need some help with this one as soon as possible. Again a huge thank you. To see my site please go to www.joeldsiegel.com I have been using stablehost and the ftp client is CPanel if that is of any other help. Thanks again!!

Sorry, should've been more clear on that. Yes, the images
have been converted to movie clips, adn the linkage ID's are
img1-img8. The reasoning behind that is that, at some point, new
pictures will take the place of the current pictures.
The attempt at randomness is actually a leftover from a
previous incarnation of this project. Ideally I'd like the pictures
to always play through in the same order, but I'd like it to start
at a random place in that order so it's not always the same image
coming up when the page first comes up. So, basically, I left it in
for lack of a better idea.
As for the setInterval() and runTimer() and "Void" question,
that part is complete patchwork on my part. I'm not surprised that
I missed something or included something extra. There isn't any
code beyond what's attached in my previous post.
I think, at the time, I was hoping that the "if(timePassed
> nTimeout){" part was on the right track, but are you saying
that the void cancels that part out?

How can I easily create a lightbox from a thumbnail slideshow widget?

I have already created a slideshow using the slideshow widget with thumbnails. I have 9 images loaded into it with the thumbnails remaining next to them when the thumbnail is clicked so that I can click any thumbnail OR click through them with an arrow. BUT, I would also like to be able to click the 'image' (the hero?) and have a lightbox pop up with the image alone and arrows to click through this way as well. How on earth can I do this without having to re-do my current design? I cannot figure it out.
Thanks for any help!

Hi
You can surely achieve this using any composition , for example insert a composition and then insert another widget in that.
This way the image on click would show another widget with images or information.
Sorry but currently as you have mentioned , you are using Slideshow and we cannot insert other object in slideshow.
Thanks,
Sanjit
