Swf on captivate slide too big

I created a flash animation that looks like movie credits --
text which scrolls from bottom to top. The flash animation is 590 x
150. The published swf file looks fine. But when I put it on a
Captivate slide (with Insert>Animation) where the Captivate
project is 630 x 425 , the animation object ignores its 590x150
size and plays full screen, moving over the top of other elements
on the slide. I've checked the animation properties--the size of
the object is set to 590 x 150.
How can I make it play at the size I intended?

Did you create the SWF in Flash and then embed it in
Captivate? If so, did you publish the Flash SWF for the same Flash
Player version as your Captivate movie. For example, if you are
publishing your Captivate movie for FP7, did you also publish your
Flash SWF for FP7 (or earlier)?
If your Flash SWF is for v8, and your Captivate movie is for
v7, then that MIGHT be the problem.

Text Missing from SWF in Captivate Slide

I inserted an SWF on my first slide in my
presentation. When I press F3, it works great. When I press F4 to
preview the project, the file plays but the text that is within
this file, is not visible. I have changed backgrounds and
transparencies, and I still have no text. This text is animated and
I don't know if this is part of the problem.

PNG files not displaying - is this a problem in BC / Flexslider2 issue slider too big

Hi,
I have uploaded a site dmrural.leapfrogdesign.com.au/index.html and I noticed my png files are not displaying. Is there a problem with using png files on BC?
Also I know this is not BC related but I would really appreciate if if someone could tell me how to reduce the size of my flexslider (i am using bootstrap 2.3.2) - it's my first site in bootstrap.
Thanks,
Tammy

They work for me. For example I see the logo on the homepage

As for the slider images size you can use something like this:
.slides {
max-width: 50%;

How big is too big for swf?

I have a swf file that has audio associated with about 15 slides. We were having some problems with it downloading and the people that host our LMS (Moodle) said that some of the problems may be related to our CP4 settings. I have the preloader set to 25% and the file is about 8.6 MB. They said to us:
Usually when hand-coding a SWF I require 100% of the SWF to be loaded before the SWF begins to play.
8.6mb is large for a SWF provided via progressive download. The optimum is no more than 5mb for users with a broadband connection. That may be part of the issue.
Is 8.6 MB really too big for a swf? What is the maximum size this should be? If it is too large what else can I do to shrink the audio as I'm sure that's a great deal of what is making the file too large?
Thanks very much,
Whitney

Hey Whitlowe,
I had a very similar situation. I received a 15 MB file from a "co-worker." The course was basically a converted PowerPoint into a Captivate course. The course had 53 pages and had heavy audio.
When I initially tried to publish it to my LMS the course took about ten minutes to load. I’m not sure if you use another authoring tool but I used another authoring tool called "Tool Book" a SumTotal product. I had to divide the captivate course into 8 SWF files. I then used Toolbook as a wrapper. The Tool Book file was 8 pages. Because Tool Book can read each page as a different SCO, the SWF files loaded one at a time.
For future courses, I am looking at getting a streaming server. I can house my audio on the server. The course would launch as a shell but would link to a streaming server for the audio/video. Not only will this improve load time but decrease my space on the LMS. I am looking into this option and not positive what the results will be, but I thought I would throw it out there.
That is the only solution I currently know of. I’m carious of any other solutions as well.
Good luck.

When I open my iPad the page is too big for the screen and won't shrink down. The keypad has also become very 'sticky'

Recently when I open any apps the pages are too big for the screen. They shrink when pinched but immediately become bigger again. It's very difficult to scroll too. The keypad has become very sticky. Missing letters and spaces when I type and needing to tap the keys much harder than usual

I have the exact same problem, I think. I was on my iPad 3's home page swiping R-L to locate a certain icon when all of a sudden the screen appeared to get HUGE. So big I could only see one or two icons. I couldn't even turn it off to try a reboot because after I pushed the sleep/wake button, I couldn't find the red slide bar. I finally just had to wait for the battery to die, then recharge it, and it looked normal again. I also spoke with several friends who haven either iPads or iPhones, and they've all had this happen to them. I checked my accessibility settings, and Zoom was already off. So what is causing this problem for so many people, and what can we do to prevent it? Please help.

Is The 27 imac too big?

I am about to add an iMac to my collection and was wondering if anyone that has the 27" iMac feel that it is too big?
Right now I have my Macbook Air connected to an external 22" monitor using dual screens. I also do this with my Macbook Pro as well.
I like to be able to have most of my main web browsing, emails, doing screenflow videos etc all on the 22" monitor and then I just have my notes, skype chat box, webinar control bar (if doing a webinar) etc on the laptop monitor.
If I get the 27" iMac will I not need to use 2 monitors?
It would be hard to imagine still only using 1 monitor and thats why I was thinking of just getting the 21.5" iMac and still using my 22" monitor for dual screens. Mainly because when I use screenflow to record something I can have my notes and if using keynote my next slide lined up to show me what to talk about next.
Any suggestions, ideas, tips, and advice would be great from those of you that have been doing anything similar with either the 21.5" or 27" iMac.
Thanks

Thanks Sue and I am loving my new iMac it really is awesome!
I cant believe I waited this long to pick one up. I should have done it a long time ago.
Here is a pic of my setup.
You can see the 27" iMac on the left and my 22" monitor on the right. Man... I love have too big screens to work off.
Using the Logitech Wireless Solar Keyboard K750 which rocks and can work in the dark for at least 3 months. No need for batteries!
And the Logitech Marathon Mouse M705 which can run up to 3 years on one set of batteries.
Also have the Bose Companion 2 Series II multimedia speaker system which I love!
You can also see 2 of my external hard drives on the left side.
Behind the iMac I have to hide my Blue Yeti microphone from my 2 year old or he will grab it and slobber all over it...lol
But I just ordered the Rhode swivel stand and Blue shockmount so that I can attach it to my desk and should be set up in the next few days.

Safari font specifically in Google search is way too BIG

The font in Google search is way too big. Only in Google. Other websites show normal fonts. Did someone encounter such problem? Please help me! Thank you!

Hello How Goes It,
select the cells you want to have no margin and choose the text inspector of the infopalette and the text tab button. At the bottom is a slider and a number field. There you can adjust the margin thickness.

What are solutions for a way-too-big database?

Hi guys!
I'm a software developer and not very good in database designing. One day, I was asked something like this :
"For example, there is a company with a web application. One day, the database for that application is way too big, caused performance issues and others, what is the solution for that application database?"
At first, I thought that was about using multiple database with single app. But I don't know if I was right.
I want to ask that what are the solutions? If it's "multiple database" then what should I do? Using two connection to 2 database simutaneously?
I appreciate any replies. Thanks!

Thanks Lubiez Jean-Val... for your links.
I've got some more advices like :
- "transferring workload to another database using different techniques to copy the data from original db"
- "redesign of the database"
So that means we use 2 different databases?Sometimes it is deemed desirable to keep only fairly recent data on the OLTP database, where the normal transaction activity happens, and replicate the data to another database that also contains historical data. This second database is used for heavy reporting tasks.
And "redesign"?As in, design it from scratch and do it right this time. Make sure all data relations are properly defined to Third Normal Form; make sure all data is typed properly (use DATE columns for dates, NUMBER columns for numbers, etc); make sure you have designed effective indexing; make sure you use the capabilities of the rdbms and do NOT just use it as a data dump.
See http://www.amazon.com/Effective-Oracle-Design-Osborne-ORACLE/dp/0072230657/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1301257486&sr=1-3
are they really good solutions?Like most everything else, "It depends"
It depends on if the proposed solutions are implemented properly and address the root problem. The root problem (or even perceived problem) hasn't yet been defined. You've just assumed that at some undefined point the database becomes "way-too-big" and will cause some sort of problem.
It's assumed that we don't have or can't use partitioning.
And why is that assumed? Yes, you have to have a version of Oracle that supports it, and it is an extra cost license. But like everything else, you and your management have to do a hard-nosed cost/benefit analysis. You may think you can't afford the cost of implementing partitioning, but it may be that you can't afford the expenses derived from NOT implementing it. I don't know what the case is for you, but you and your management should consider the factors instead of just rejecting in out of hand.

Closing swfs in captivate movie

I am frantically trying to figure out how not to get a
javascript erro rwhen my animation ends inside my captivate movie.
how to I close the swf adn still elt the user navigate to the next
captivate screen?
Please help!
thanks,
francie

Hi francie
I have no clue as to how what terrence wood is suggesting
will help here. From what I surmise based off what you posted, you
have inserted an animation or possibly even another Captivate movie
on a slide in an existing movie? And somehow you want to know how
to close the .SWF that is sitting on the slide? If I'm correct in
what I understand you are trying to do, my guess is that it isn't
possible. Why? Well, if you were able to close the .SWF on the
slide, you would probably also close the whole movie. My guess is
that this is why you are seeing JavaScript errors.
I'm thinking that you should probably configure the end
option to simply stop. For the movies that are on the slides, that
is. This also assumes you are placing other Captivate movies on the
slides. If you are instead placing other animation, I haven't a
clue what to advise, other than to possibly adjust timing.
Hopefully this helped in some way... Rick

Can a library be too big to share?

I just upgraded to Windows 7 (32 bit) and had to reinstall iTunes (don't know if that is the real issue). My home networked sharing library shows up up however when I select the library to share iTunes thinks for a bit then goes back to the apple icon (like it times out or something). I used to be able to share a library from one computer to another on my home network. I have gone to the computer that has my entire library on it and again I can see my laptop library (which is empty) and seam to be able to access it. Can a library be too big to share?

Hi
Not really understanding - but anyway
.swf - have no idea what that is
.mov - Is NO Video-Codec - but a Container (sort of folder) and can hold Video-Codecs that iMovie can use or not.
Open the .mov - with QuickTime-player (as it can open so many more)
open Inspector [cmd+I] and read
Video Format (Codec) : nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Frames per second : YY.yy
WHAT does they read ?
iMovie has one very bad thing going - It tries to open Video-Codecs that it really can not use - so all kind of strange behaviors can occur. No Sound / Only Sound no picture etc.
So knowing the true Video-Codec IS VERY IMPORTANT.

NB305 first time setup display too big for screen

I just bought an NB305-310 netbook (two, actually, and the first one had no trouble). It came loaded with Windows XP. When I turned it on I wasn't able to set it up right away, when I came back to it, I found the display of the welcome screens and the setup process assistant is too big for the screen, as if it thinks it has to fill a 15" or 17" screen instead of 10". So I can't see to click on the "I agree" box or the "Next" button etc., so can't proceed through the setup.
I already tried restarting it a couple times (by holding down the power key, since Control-Alt-Delete didn't do anything). I also tried using the function key with various keys that looked like they might affect display size but no change. Even the volume function keys didn't change the volume of the setup background music that plays.
How can I fix this?
Thank you!
RD

Try this. Press Alt + Spacebar to open the control menu (which may be off the screen) at the top-left of a window.
Then press M (for Move).
That will enable you to move the window using the arrow keys.
When you get the chance, you'll want to go here and reset the screen resolution to 1024 x 600.

Window too big

Last night i reset the prefs in Safari and now the page is too big. the scroll slider on the right is not in view. I trashed the plist file but no luck.
any thoughts?
cheers
Dom

You did not say whether you had tried clicking on the green re-size button in the top left of the window (on the title bar). That usually sets the size to the max or optimum size for the screen. If you then drag the size (bottom right corner) to a custom size, clicking the green button will toggle between the two sizes.
Firefox windows had a nasty habit of jumping up to the point that the top of the window was hidden, and the title bar was hidden as well as the toolbars. To see them again, I had to use command-D (create bookmark) to make the title bar show itself again. Version 2.0.0.11 (current but 2.0.0.12 is waiting for me to re-boot) does the same thing but only when I attempt to move the window while it is in the middle of downloading a document.

ITV Catchup TV picture too big

We have two laptops – the first one is an HP and works OK in Firefox for all TV Channels
The second one – an Advent Verona produces the following problem
ITV and Catchup TV viewed in Firefox - the picture is about 4 times too big
BBCi, 4OD and Demand 5 all OK in Firefox with this Advent
ITV and Catchup TV - viewed in Opera - picture OK – size and speed OK
So it seems to be the result of the – Advent laptop - plus Firefox - plus ITV and Catchup TV

I will check out Photoshop Elements 6.0, but I have solved my problem. If, after Sharing a iPhoto 16:9 slideshow with iDVD, opening a new iDVD 16:9 file, creating a slide show, and under media/movies, drag the .mov file to the left, and be sure to select, "scale slide to safe TV area," the resulting disc will play on our 16:9 and show the entire contents of each image. The picture does not fill the TV screen, small black bars all around the picture, but at least all of the image shows. I can live with the black bars. One thing, maybe THE thing, I was doing wrong was I was making a movie in iDVD and not a slide show.
Do you see much difference in the output of FotoMagico2 (FM) during playback on a TV as compared to iDVD? If so, how do you create your .dv files; 16:9 Widescreen, 720p, or 1080p? At the moment, FM cannot work from .mov files, and will not captures iPhoto image captions. This means you have to create a title for each image in FM. Also, unless there is a global way of doing it, you have to zoom each image down inside the dotted line box if you want the entire image to show on your TV. The image does fill the screen, however. I am still comparing.
Thank you for all your help and support.

Screen Resolution Flash too big

I have a flash object that is in 800*1000 and it show up fine on my desktop but it seem too big when I open up on my laptop which have a smaller resolution. Some of the contents were cut off. Is there a way to solve this problem? Or at least add a scrollbar?

if the swf is embedded in an html file, publish (file>publish settings>html) for 100%x100%.

How do I print a spreadsheet too big for A4 paper?

My spreadsheet it a little too big to print on normal A4 paper, and the 'Inspector' will not allow me to change the 'Content Scale' of the document before printing. Any suggestions?

Use the content scale slider at the bottom of the document.
