Specific problem with buttons and states

Hello,
I first apologize for using Google Translate :-(
I have a problem with InDesign not solve. It is for a digital publication.
My goal is:
A 'gallery' button is pressed and the ball image appears with three buttons: "Previous image", "Next image" and "close gallery".
I do not want the gallery to be visible, or buttons that control, until the button is pressed "gallery", so I think all buttons except "gallery" with the "hidden until activated" option selected.
I want the gallery, and buttons that control it, disappears when I press the button "close gallery".
What I call "Gallery" is an image that fills the screen.
After placing the image on your site have become the property button "Hidden until activated."
Then convert this button in order to several states (what I will call "button states") and by the successive states with the images I want to show in the gallery.
I think the interactions of the buttons.
When button "gallery" I assign the following "I click the"
- "Go to state"
- Hide "gallery"
- Show "close gallery"
- Show "previous picture"
- Show "next image"
- Show "button states."
The buttons "Previous Image" and "Next Image" are assigned, respectively, to go to previous state and go to the next state.
When button "close gallery" I assign the following "I click the"
- Show "gallery"
- Hide "close gallery"
- Hide "previous picture"
- Hide "next image"
- Show "button states."
The buttons "Previous Image" and "Next Image" are assigned, respectively, to go to previous state and go to the next state.
When button "close gallery" I assign the following "I click the"
- Show "gallery"
- Hide "close gallery"
- Hide "previous picture"
- Hide "next image"
- Hide "button states."
I put it up and working properly until I press "close gallery". Then I hide the buttons "close gallery", "previous image" and "next picture" but it keeps me visible "button states" showing the last image that was shown.
Do not know how to fix this and I'm going crazy!
Please can anyone help me?
The solution may be another approach but without using "Folio Overlays".
Thank you very much.

I've moved your post to the DPS forum.
I'm afraid the way you're doing this is not going to work with DPS.
This should all be done with a multi state object. The first state would contain nothing but a button to go to the first state. After that set up each state with the proper buttons. Without seeing the file it's a bit difficult for me to envision exactly what you want to do.

  • Problem with Frameset and page session

    All,
    I am having a problem with Framesets and page session attributes. I
    have a client who's application uses a three frame frameset. They
    have a requirement on several pages that when a button is pushed two
    different pages load into the right and left frames. The way they
    are accomplishing this is that on the pages were this is required,
    they are adding target="_top" to the form declaration in their JSP.
    Then they store the page names they want to display in session,
    forward the request to the frameset, the frameset then determines
    which pages to display based on the session variables. This works
    exactly how they want it to.
    Here is our problem. We need to store some information in page
    session attributes. We have tried to get a handle to the desired
    view bean and call the setPageSessionAttribute method. However,
    since we are forwarding to the frame and the frame handles displaying
    the desired JSP, that view bean we had the handle to is not the one
    that is created to hand the display of the JSP.
    The next thing I tried was to use the request object. In the
    handleBtnRequest method, I set an attribute in the request object. I
    then query the request object in the beginDisplay event of the view
    bean. When the frame is reset the request object does not contain
    the attribute that I have set. I'm confused by this because I
    thought the request object would be available to me throughout the
    life of the request.
    Given the above information, does anyone have any suggestions? Also,
    am I going about this in the wrong manner.
    The client had been storing this information in user session, which
    seemed to work. However, since the data being stored dealt
    specifically with data for the requested page, we felt that storing
    it as page session was more appropriate.
    Thanks,

    The script on your page web page has some obvious bugs.. Best
    fix those
    first before looking to blame Flash.

  • Problems with RAC and XA: Fallback

    Hello,
    we are seing problems with RAC and XA (Tuxedo 11, DB 11.2), specifically encountering "ORA-24798: cannot resume the distributed transaction branch on another instance".
    The first scenario relates to fallback after a RAC node failure. There are two servers, S1 and S2. S1 makes an ATMI call to S2. Both servers are in the same Tuxedo group, using TMS_ORA. RAC is set up for failover (BASIC), no load balancing.
    The sequence is:
    - S1 and S2 are connected to the same RAC node n1. All is well.
    - RAC node n1 fails. S1, S2 and the TMS_ORA all fail over to RAC node n2. After the failover has happened, all is well.
    - RAC node n1 recovers. All is still well (as there is no automatic fallback).
    - S1 (or S2) is restarted (either intentionally or because of a crash). Since n1 is up again, S1 connects to n1. Now we get ORA-24798. Permanently.
    S1 is connected to n1 and S2 is connected to n2. Since both are in the same group, both use the same XA transaction branch. When called, S2 attempts to JOIN the transaction branch that S1 started. But the DB (11.2) does not allow the same branch to span more than one node. Hence the ORA-24798.
    This seems to be a severe limitation in the combination of Tuxedo, XA and RAC. It basically means we still have to use DTP services, even with Tuxedo 11 and DB 11.2. Or are we missing something?
    We could put S1 and S2 into different groups, but that seems to be inefficient, and not practical for a real application (10s of servers).
    I am extrapolating from this that RAC load balancing would also not work, as S1 and S2 could be connected to different RAC nodes.
    Roger

    Roger,
    When using an external transaction manager such as Tuxedo you should still declare Oracle services as DTP services when using Oracle Database 11g. The Tuxedo documentation is not clear about this. The relevant 11gR2 RAC documentation is at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/rac.112/e16795/hafeats.htm and states
    "An XA transaction can span Oracle RAC instances by default, allowing any application that uses the Oracle XA library to take full advantage of the Oracle RAC environment to enhance the availability and scalability of the application.
    "GTXn background processes support global (XA) transactions in an Oracle RAC environment. The GLOBAL_TXN_PROCESSES initialization parameter, which is set to 1 by default, specifies the initial number of GTXn background processes for each Oracle RAC instance. Use the default value for this parameter clusterwide to allow distributed transactions to span multiple Oracle RAC instances. Using the default value allows the units of work performed across these Oracle RAC instances to share resources and act as a single transaction (that is, the units of work are tightly coupled). It also allows 2PC requests to be sent to any node in the cluster.
    "Before Release 11.1, the way to achieve tight coupling in Oracle RAC was to use Distributed Transaction Processing (DTP) services, that is, services whose cardinality (one) ensured that all tightly-coupled branches landed on the same instance—regardless of whether load balancing was enabled. Tightly coupled XA transactions no longer require the special type of singleton services to be deployed on Oracle RAC databases if the XA application does not join or resume XA transaction branches. XA transactions are transparently supported on Oracle RAC databases with any type of service configuration.
    A"n external transaction manager, such as Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server (OraMTS), coordinates DTP/XA transactions. However, an internal Oracle transaction manager coordinates distributed SQL transactions. Both DTP/XA and distributed SQL transactions must use the DTP service in Oracle RAC."

  • Problems with classpath and comiling an easy program

    Hello everyone:
    I have downloaded jsdk1.3.1_03, (Windows xp)? what do i type in the class path?
    Once I am done with setting the classpath. I typed the helloworld program, and it give me an error specified path not found).
    Please help, through this.
    Sincerely
    Johanna

    it is problems with compiling and running!!! ,
    everytime I try to comile the helloworld program, it
    state an error like :specific path not found. I set
    the path and classpath to C:\jsdk1.3.1\bin
    is that correct? If you installed the developer's kit into c:\jsdk1.3.1 then that is correct. You need to include the directory where you installed java. Typically, that is c:\jdk1.3.1 for example (and add \bin). You can try to "cd c:\jsdk1.3.1\bin" and try javac again. You must have NO spaces in your Path setting.

  • Problem with JFrame and busy/wait Cursor

    Hi -- I'm trying to set a JFrame's cursor to be the busy cursor,
    for the duration of some operation (usually just a few seconds).
    I can get it to work in some situations, but not others.
    Timing does seem to be an issue.
    There are thousands of posts on the BugParade, but
    in general Sun indicates this is not a bug. I just need
    a work-around.
    I've written a test program below to demonstrate the problem.
    I have the problem on Solaris, running with both J2SE 1.3 and 1.4.
    I have not tested on Windows yet.
    When you run the following code, three JFrames will be opened,
    each with the same 5 buttons. The first "F1" listens to its own
    buttons, and works fine. The other two (F2 and F3) listen
    to each other's buttons.
    The "BUSY" button simply sets the cursor on its listener
    to the busy cursor. The "DONE" button sets it to the
    default cursor. These work fine.
    The "SLEEP" button sets the cursor, sleeps for 3 seconds,
    and sets it back. This does not work.
    The "INVOKE LATER" button does the same thing,
    except is uses invokeLater to sleep and set the
    cursor back. This also does not work.
    The "DELAY" button sleeps for 3 seconds (giving you
    time to move the mouse into the other (listerner's)
    window, and then it behaves just like the "SLEEP"
    button. This works.
    Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

    I've had the same problems with cursors and repaints in a swing application, and I was thinking of if I could use invokeLater, but I never got that far with it.
    I still believe you would need a thread for the time consuming task, and that invokeLater is something you only need to use in a thread different from the event thread.

  • Problem with ECS and XSD

    Hi B2B Gurus,
    We are facing the problem with ECS and XSD files from past 2 weeks, Steps we followed
    1. Created a ECS file in document editor version 11g: 6.6.0
    2. ECS files consists only from ST and SE segments
    Ex: ST
    BCH
    CUR
    REF
    PER -- Exclude

    SE
    3: Generated a XSD file from ECS file( File --> export---> Oracle B2B) in document ediotr
    4. We imported a ECS and XSD file in B2B console( documents---docdef-transaction set ECS file) and XSD File
    5. We tested one file from manually we face below error:

  • Problem with Roles and Triggers

    I'm having a strange problem with Roles and Triggers in Oracle. It's a little difficult to describe, so bear with me...
    I'm trying to create a trigger that inserts records into a table belonging to a different user/owner. Of course, the owner of this trigger needs rights to insert records into this other table. I find that if I add these rights directly to the owner of the trigger, everything works okay and the trigger compiles successfully.
    However, if I first create a Role and grant the "insert" rights to it, and then assign this role to the owner of the trigger, the trigger does not compile successfully.
    To illustrate this, here's an example script. I'm using Oracle 10g Release 2...
    -- Clean up...
    DROP TABLE TestUser.TrigTable;
    DROP TABLE TestUser2.TestTable;
    DROP ROLE TestRole;
    DROP TRIGGER TestUser.TestTrigger;
    DROP USER TestUser CASCADE;
    DROP USER TestUser2 CASCADE;
    -- Create Users...
    CREATE USER TestUser IDENTIFIED BY password DEFAULT TABLESPACE "USERS" TEMPORARY TABLESPACE "TEMP" QUOTA UNLIMITED ON "USERS";
    CREATE USER TestUser2 IDENTIFIED BY password DEFAULT TABLESPACE "USERS" TEMPORARY TABLESPACE "TEMP" QUOTA UNLIMITED ON "USERS";
    CREATE TABLE TestUser.TrigTable (TestColumn VARCHAR2(40));
    CREATE TABLE TestUser2.TestTable (TestColumn VARCHAR2(40));
    -- Grant Insert rights on TestTable to TestRole...
    CREATE ROLE TestRole NOT IDENTIFIED;
    GRANT INSERT ON TestUser2.TestTable TO TestRole;
    -- Add TestRole to TestUser. TestUser should now have rights to INSERT on TestTable
    GRANT TestRole TO TestUser;
    ALTER USER TestUser DEFAULT ROLE ALL;
    -- Now, create the trigger. This compiles unsuccessfully...
    CREATE TRIGGER TestUser.TestTrigger AFTER INSERT ON TestUser.TrigTable
    BEGIN
    INSERT INTO TestUser2.TestTable (TestColumn) VALUES ('Test');
    END;
    When I do a "SHOW ERRORS;" after this, I get:
    SQL> show errors;
    Errors for TRIGGER TESTUSER.TESTTRIGGER:
    LINE/COL ERROR
    2/3 PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
    2/25 PL/SQL: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    SQL>
    As I said above, if I just add the Insert rights directly to TestUser, the trigger compiles perfectly. Does anyone know why this is happening?
    Thanks!
    Adrian

    Hi Raghu,
    If the insert rights exist only on TestRole, and TestRole is assigned to TestUser, I can do the INSERT statement you suggest with no problems if I just execute it from SQLPlus (logged in as TestUser).
    The question is, why does the same INSERT fail when it's inside the trigger?

  • Problem with JTextPane and StateInvariantError

    Hi. I am having a problem with JTextPanes and changing only certain text to bold. I am writing a chat program and would like to allow users to make certain text in their entries bold. The best way I can think of to do this is to add <b> and </b> tags to the beginning and end of any text that is to be bold. When the other client receives the message, the program will take out all of the <b> and </b> tags and display any text between them as bold (or italic with <i> and </i>). I've searched the forums a lot and figured out several ways to make the text bold, and several ways to determine which text is bold before sending the text, but none that work together. Currently, I add the bold tags with this code: (note: messageDoc is a StyledDocument and messageText is a JTextPane)
    public String getMessageText() {
              String text = null;
              boolean bold = false, italic = false;
              for (int i = 0; i < messageDoc.getLength(); i++) {
                   messageText.setCaretPosition(i);
                   if (StyleConstants.isBold(messageDoc.getCharacterElement(i).getAttributes()) && !bold) {
                        bold = true;
                        if (text != null) {
                             text = text + "<b>";
                        else {
                             text = "<b>";
                   else if (StyleConstants.isBold(messageDoc.getCharacterElement(i).getAttributes()) && bold) {
                        // Do nothing
                   else if (!StyleConstants.isBold(messageDoc.getCharacterElement(i).getAttributes()) && bold) {
                        bold = false;
                        if (text != null) {
                             text = text + "</b>";
                        else {
                             text = "</b>";
                   try {
                        if (text != null) {
                             text = text + messageDoc.getText(i,1);
                        else {
                             text = messageDoc.getText(i, 1);
                   catch (BadLocationException e) {
                        System.out.println("An error occurred while getting the text from the message document");
                        e.printStackTrace();
              return text;
         } // end getMessageText()When the message is sent to the other client, the program searches through the received message and changes the text between the bold tags to bold. This seems as if it should work, but as soon as I click on the bold button, I get a StateInvariantError. The code for my button is:
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
              if (evt.getSource() == bold) {
                   MutableAttributeSet bold = new SimpleAttributeSet();
                   StyleConstants.setBold(bold, true);
                   messageText.getStyledDocument().setCharacterAttributes(messageText.getSelectionStart(), messageText.getSelectionStart() - messageText.getSelectionEnd() - 1, bold, false);
         } //end actionPerformed()Can anyone help me to figure out why this error is being thrown? I have searched for a while to figure out this way of doing what I'm trying to do and I've found out that a StateInvariantError has been reported as a bug in several different circumstances but not in relation to this. Or, if there is a better way to add and check the style of the text that would be great as well. Any help is much appreciated, thanks in advance.

    Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
    Can't tell from you code what the problem is because I don't know the context of how each method is invoked. But it would seem like you are trying to query the data in the Document while the Document is being updated. Try wrapping the getMessageText() method is a SwingUtilities.invokeLater().
    There is no need to write custom code for a Bold Action you can just use:
    JButton bold = new JButton( new StyledEditorKit.BoldAction() );Also your code to build the text String is not very efficient. You should not be using string concatenation to append text to the string. You should be using a StringBuffer or StringBuilder.

  • [SOLVED] Problem with netctl and dhcpcd

    Hi everybody,
    I had a problem with netctl and dhcpcd.
    I was using netctl and wifi-menu to connect to wirelless networks with dhcp.
    It worked fine at home, then i went to a friend where it also worked but then i went back home and it failed at every try with those error messages:
    dhcpcd[2718]: version 6.0.5 starting
    dhcpcd[2718]: wlp9s0: rebinding lease of 192.168.1.154
    dhcpcd[2718]: wlp9s0: reject NAK via 192.168.178.1
    dhcpcd[2718]: wlp9s0: soliciting a DHCP lease
    dhcpcd[2718]: wlp9s0: offered 192.168.178.44 from 192.168.178.1
    dhcpcd[2718]: timed out
    network[2659]: DHCP IP lease attempt failed on interface 'wlp9s0'
    systemd[1]: netctl@wlp9s0\xxx.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
    systemd[1]: Failed to start Automatically generated profile by wifi-menu.
    systemd[1]: Unit [email protected] entered failed state.
    I figured that dhcpcd tried to rebind an ip that my router rejected and didn't accept the ip that it offered instead.
    The solution was to delete:
    /var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-wlp9s0.lease
    now how can i configure netctl and or dhcpcd so that won't happen again and that it accepts all ips offered by routers?

    I've had this happen now and again. You can rebind the lease yourself with:
    $ dhcpcd --rebind
    You could also try increasing the timeout by adding
    TimeoutDHCP=
    to your netctl profile/s - see netctl.profile(5) as WonderWoofy suggests. Although I haven't tried the latter.

  • Problem with storing and retriving a different langauge font in mysql

    hi,
    i have problem with storing and retriving a different character set in
    mysql database ( for example storing kannada font text in database)
    it simply store what ever typed in JTextField in database in the
    formate ??????????? and it showing ???????? .
    please what can i do this problem.
    thanks
    daya

    MySQL does not know about what type of Font you use or store. that is applicatioon specific. All it knows is the character set that you are storing and the data type and data. THere are something you should know when working with database and Java:
    1. make sure you know what character set is used for the database table.
    2. make sure you know what character set is used by Java (default to UTF-8 ..
    sort off - there are few character that it cannot save). You can enforce the
    character set being sent to the database by the String's getBytes(String charsetName) method.
    3. make sure the application you use to view the table use the correct character set
    if it use a different character set, then any character that it does not recogized
    will be replaced with a quetion mark '?'....eventhough the data is correct.

  • Problem with Java and Windows (Mainly Vista and UAC)

    Hi all,
    I am having a problem with a program that I've devoloped. The program itself is packaged as a jar and I plan to deploy it across multiple platforms eventually however right now i am only concerned about windows based systems. I have made an installer for a windows baised systems using NSIS to install the software files. I made the installer as I need several java packages to be installed so the program would work (JAI, J3D, JAI ImageIO) and I also require the program to have fileassociations on windows.
    I know that this is not what java is about, however the majority of the users will be on windows baised systems so I've decided that OS specific installers is the best option.
    During the process I have noticed that there are several key problem with java for this type of application!
    The first issue that I have come across is getting file associations to work on java. As a .jar is not an excutable it is not possible to directly associate a filetype with it in java so to overcome this I currently run the program from a .bat files and also the program requires large memory so this also allows me to run the program with -xmx. The batch file that I use is :
    <code>
    cd PATH TO PROGRAM
    start javaw -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -Xmn100M -Xms500M -Xmx1000M -jar "PATH TO PROGRAM\program.jar" %1 -vram 134217728
    pause;
    </code>
    Ok so all this appears to work fine and allows windows to have file associations and start the program and thats all works perfectly but this is a non-ideal solution. Has anyone got any advice on improving this?
    The next problem that I have appears to be a problem with Vista and UAC (user access control). When a user installs the program and installs the program into the program files directory I found that the program did not work and kept saying that I did not have access to the files in the current directory. This is a problem as I read and write settings files during program execution.
    On a Vista system UAC prevents file write operations into the Program Files directory unless the program has requested elevated status even if the user is a full administrator. The probem is that there appears to be no real way to achieve this under java that I'm aware of...
    Has anyone else had this probem and has a suitable solution?
    Any advice on these issues would realy be appricated.
    Regards
    Joey

    Ok so i've kinda found a solution, its not ideal but its very good. I found this program called Elevate
    A link to the site I got it was
    http://www.wintellect.com/cs/blogs/jrobbins/archive/2007/03/27/elevate-a-process-at-the-command-line-in-vista.aspx
    This program allows you start java with a UAC dialog for high access using
    Elevate java -jar myjar.jar
    This then allows you to have full access using java... I guess it could be dangerous but it does the job.

  • Problem with TextInput and RadioButton

    Hi,
    I've encountered a problem with TextInput and RadioButtons.
    I've created some text fields and radio buttons for a
    feedback form under a movie _root.feedback.
    But for some reason, I can't seem to enter text into the text
    field (no blinking cursor), and I can't see the "label" next to my
    radio buttons.
    Just as a workaround, I tried moving these fields to _root,
    and now I can enter text and see the radio button labels.
    But to keep my hierarchy clean, I want to use a the
    _root.feedback movie for my feedback fields. Any ideas what could
    be going wrong? I checked Window -> Component Inspector, and
    these textInput fields are enabled.
    Stuck.
    Thanks.

    Is the text the same color as the background or do you need
    embedded fonts?
