Text caption visible on slide but not when running project

I am using Captivate v4.
I have one slide of 64 where the text cpation is seen on the slide and runs correctly when using F3 - but when I run the project / F10 the text caption does not appear.
I have copied the slide with this error onto a blank project as i assumed the project might be corrupt - but the same happens on the blank project.
Help please...anyone ?
Noel

Thanks Rod and Rick,
Not sure what was the cause of the problem - but have fixed it now.
After trying many things, including copying the project onto a new blank Captivate project - none of which worked, I did the following and the problem was fixed.
Working on the original project and the slide with the error - I removed the text caption that was not working (for the nth time) and thought I would try one more time to put the text caption back using a different font.....
When I opened the text caption option I noticed there are "two" options for the transparent text caption one above the line and one below, see below;
I selected the transparent option below the line...and it worked OK.
Have to assume that the ones above the line are the most recently used, and I must have been using this one without noticing which one I was selecting - and there was something wrong with the one above the line.
Staring to think I need to upgrade to v5.5 - but not convinced it is the right thing to do.
Thanks again guys,
Noel

  • UIImpersonator tests work in FlashBuilder, but not when run from Ant

    I'm in the process of converting a Flex 3 project to use FlexUnit4 tests.
    Everything compiles in Flashbuilder 4.5 and runs nicely. I've converted all the tests
    to use flexunit 4, which highlighted a few issues, but nothing too major, and all the
    tests now pass when run in Flashbuilder.
    So... now, I'm trying to convert the CI build to use the 4.5 SDK and flexunit4. So far,
    so good. Everything runs and I get a nicely formatted JUnit report. Unfortunately, though,
    any test that uses the UIImpersonator fails with an async method timeout, suggesting that
    the CreationComplete event hasn't fired.
    Here's a typical example of one of my UI test cases:
              [Test(async, ui)]
              public function testAvailableProductsSetupAdminForSell() : void {
                   var view:OrderBasketView = new OrderBasketView();
                   var user:CfxUser = new CfxUser();
                   user.admin = true;
                   ModelLocator.instance.userDetails = user;
                   view.buyOrSell = OrderType.SELL;
                   helper.createComponentAndAddListener(view, this, availableProductSetupAdminForSellCreationComplete);
              private function availableProductSetupAdminForSellCreationComplete(event:Event, view:OrderBasketView) : void {
                   Assert.assertTrue(view.availableProductTypes.contains(ProductType.PRODUCT_1));
                   Assert.assertTrue(view.availableProductTypes.contains(ProductType.PRODUCT_2));
                   Assert.assertTrue(view.availableProductTypes.contains(ProductType.PRODUCT_3));
    and helper.createComponentAndAddListener looks like this:
            public function createComponentAndAddListener(view:UIComponent, testCase:Object, creationComplete:Function) : void {
                   _view = view;
                   _view.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, Async.asyncHandler(testCase, creationComplete, 4000, _view));
                   UIImpersonator.addChild(_view);
    If I use FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parent.addChild(_view) in place of UIImpersonator.addChild(_view), all the tests pass.
    I was wondering if it's a function of the fact that my helper class has no metadata that indicates it's a ui test, but that wouldn't explain why it works in FlashBuilder and not when run with ant.
    I also wondered if it was a function of running with headless server set to true, but when I changed it to false the same thing happened.
    My environment is:
    ubuntu 11.04
    ant 1.7.1
    Sun jdk 1.6.0_26
    Flex SDK 4.5.1.21328
    FlexUnit 4.1.0-8-4.1.0.16076
    I'm using the auto-generated TestRunner.mxml
    Any thoughts, anyone? Now that I can get it to work by adding the UI components to the topLevelApplication, at least I can make progress, but I'd like to get to the bottom of the problem, because that shouldn't be necessary.
    Thanks in advance,
    -Chrisl

    Changing to the topLevelApplication did not work. What's funny is that it then failed on a completely unrelated test by hanging and never returning... I'm thinking there must be something else that is going on here, but it's not clear what... :-/ Here is an example of my setup/teardown and a test that work great in the UI but not in CI...
    [Before(async, ui)]
    public function setUp():void
        _fromToList = new FromToList();
        _fromToList.setStyle('skinClass', FromToListSkin);
        Async.proceedOnEvent(this, _fromToList, FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, 1000);
        FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parent.addChild(_fromToList);
        // UIImpersonator.addChild(_fromToList);
    [After(ui)]
    public function tearDown():void
        FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parent.removeChild(_fromToList);
        // UIImpersonator.removeChild(_fromToList);
        _fromToList = null;
    [Test(async)]
    public function should_remove_selected_item_in_to_list_to_from_list():void
        _fromToList.fromArrayList = _dpArray;
        _fromToList.toArrayList = _toDpArray;
        var sequence:SequenceRunner = new SequenceRunner(this);
        sequence.addStep(new SequenceSetter(_fromToList.toList, { selectedItem: _toDpArray[1]}));
        sequence.addStep(new SequenceWaiter(_fromToList.toList, FlexEvent.VALUE_COMMIT, 100));
        sequence.addStep(new SequenceCaller(_fromToList, _fromToList.remove));
        sequence.addStep(new SequenceWaiter(_fromToList, FromToListChangeEvent.FROM_TO_LIST_CHANGE_EVENT, 100));
        sequence.addAssertHandler(handleListHasChangedThenRemoveEvent, {});
        sequence.run();
    private function handleListHasChangedThenRemoveEvent(event:FromToListChangeEvent, passThruData:Object):void
        assertThat(_fromToList.toArrayList.length, equalTo(_toDpArray.length - 1));
        assertThat(_fromToList.fromArrayList.length, equalTo(_dpArray.length - _toDpArray.length + 1));
        assertTrue(_fromToList.fromArrayList.contains(_toDpArray[1]));
    So you can see that I'm using Sequences to manage waiting for stuff to get updated in the background, and basically testing when I select an item in a list and act on it that it updates the model like I expect. Again, works GREAT in the UI Runner.
    I'm open to suggestions...

  • Dynamic Parameter List works on desktop but not when run on Crystal Server

    Hi,
    I have a report, and the database command query takes one parameter ({?Year}. There is a second parameter used for a record select which is a dynamic paramenter list (multiple select, required). When running the report from Crystal Reports 2008 on my desktop, it first prompts for a year, and then once that is entered, it will come back with the list (of Companies) to select from. It works very smootly and as desired.
    But when I load this report to Crystal Reports 2008 Server, it will ask for the year (which is a static list), and this is good, but then it comes back with an empty dynamic select list on the next screen.
    Are there any special caveats that I need to be aware of in regards to dynamic lists when running from the CR server?
    Thanks!

    Hi Pat, 
    This should work but a couple of things to check: 
    1)  Are the two parameters linked to the same database?  If the parameters are linked to fields from different tables in different databases then you need to make sure you set the Database Configuration and have the report log on to both databases. 
    2)  Are Crystal Reports and Crystal Server the same version?  I had problems with parameters after we upgraded to 2008.  We had to install the latest service packs for both Crystal 2008 and the Enterprise Server.  Then we installed Crystal 2008 on the same machine the Enterprise Server was on.  Crystal Reports and the Enterprise Server share some common files.  Some of those files were updated for Crystal but not for the Enterprise Server yet.  Once we synched them our reports have run fine. 
    Good luck,
    Brian

  • Report data shows up in Builder but not when run on web

    I have a report that pulls up the data just fine when run in Builder but when I run it on the web, it shows up, no errors, with no data...just blank.
    I am using a global temp table to do this.
    Any ideas on what might cause this to happen?

  • Text visible in preview but not when uploaded.

    I'm designing a mobile site in Muse.
    The fonts I'm using are from the Museo family through Typkit.
    I've uploaded the site a few times during the design process and had no trouble with text frames or text appearing.
    Yesterday I added a new text frame in one section to link to a phone number and now sections of text are not visible when I upload the site. It is, however visible in the Muse preview!?
    I've tried creating the text boxes from scratch but they still disappear in that particular section of the site.
    Does anyone know why this is!?
    The pale grey line is the text box where the text should appear.

    Hi Michael,
    It works fine at my end, please try clear browser cookies/cache and then check. If possible, check this on a different device and see how that goes.

  • ORA-01843: not a valid month . Receive this error when running report in reporting services but not when running query in BIDS

    sql server 2008 r2
    RS2008 r2
    I can execute the query in BIDS 2008 with out a problem and I can run on our RS2005 server without a problem
    But when I deploy report and run on our RS2008 server I get the error
    An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
    Query execution failed for dataset 'NIR'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand)
    ORA-01843: not a valid month 
    QUERY:
    select * from NIR_QUARTERLY where birth_date between :PARAM1 and :PARAM2
    order by PT_CODE

    CAUSE
    The problem is caused by not using VALID dates values in the dataset.
    - This data problem was masked in the original version as the Predicate(s) used can change between versions of Oracle
    - Oracle does *not* guarantee the same explain plan or the specific order of predicates used between versions of Oracle
    Reviewing the  EXPLAIN PLAN for both versions revealed in this case:
    1) The table was partitioned
    2) The EXPLAIN PLANS were not the same due to how the partitions were accessed
    3) If the same query was used against a non-partitioned table using the same data, the following error would always occur
       ORA-01843: not a valid month
    4) The problem string value was in this case found to include the string value of  '0000-00-00'
      The ORA-01843 occurred when using the TO_DATE function against '0000-00-00'
    There is *no* Year= '0000' Month= '00' or day = '00' -- therefore the  ORA-01843: not a valid month

  • VI Works Single Step at a Time, But Not When Run Normally

    I'm very new to LabView and have created a simple VI to record a single measurement from my HP 34401A Multimeter over an RS 232 connection.
    The problem that I'm having is that the VI only works when I run it a single step at a time (clicking the single step button until it's completed).  When I try to run the entire thing though, I get the following error:
    Error -1073807339 occurred at VISA Read in Untitled 2
    Possible reason(s):
    VISA:  (Hex 0xBFFF0015) Timeout expired before operation completed.
    After reading through the help page for that error, I tried adding a time delay, but that did not fix the problem.
    (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/874B379E24C0A0D686256FCF007A6EA0)
    NI I/O Trace didn't provide any answers for me, but I've attached a shot.  Lines 1-13 are from the single step run, the rest are from attempting to run the entire thing at once.
    Can anyone please help me understand what's going on here?  Thanks in advance!

    The only thing I can think of is that you are sending the remote command and then not waiting long enough for it to complete.  The manual states:
    It is very important that you send the
    SYSTem:REMote command
    to place the multimeter in the remote mode. Sending or receiving data
    over the RS-232 interface when not configured for remote operation can
    cause unpredictable results.
    And I think we are experiencing unpredictable results.
    i don't know if you can change the command into a query by using the *OPC? command, but using that could solve it - or we could run into the same issue because of the caveat mentioned above.  Maybe you have to put a manual wait in between the remote command and the write command.

  • Text Caption appears in Edit Mode but not in Preview Project or Web Browser

    I'm using Cp4 and have downloaded Adobe Flash 10 Active X, it's ver 10.1.82.76.  I've added a simple text caption with these options:
    Timing Display:  Rest of slide
    Appear after:  2.0 seconds
    Transition effect:  Fade in only
    In: .5 seconds
    And Visible is checked
    I also have a simple line that I drew with the draw line tool and included an arrow on the end of it.
    Everything on the screen works including the click box, the animated text and the failure caption.  For some reason the text caption and the arrow are not appearing except in Edit Mode.  In Preview Project, they disapper but the click box, failure caption and animated text work fine.
    I've rebooted, copied this screen into a new instance of Cp4, re-created these objects on a freshly recorded screen, chosen Order: Bring to Front, created a brand new screen completely from scratch and downloaded the Flash 10 Active X version mentioned above.
    They funny thing is, is that the text caption and arrow works fine on other screens in the project.  I have 76 screens total.
    I'm running Windows XP.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi there
    Can you post a screen capture of what your Timeline looks like?
    Odds are your Click Box is pausing in a weird place.

    I am trying to set up my newly purchased Apple TV but when I enter my network password while setting up, I am not able to enter the Submit button, any idea how to hit the visible submit button that is visible on screen but not responding?

    You need to use the right arrow on the remote to go all the way to the right. The submit button will be highlighted and you can then press select on the remote to proceed.

    How do I apply a paragraph rule "above" but not when first in a column. In other words, the rule above will only run if it isn't the first paragraph in the column (even if it appears in a multi-column text frame).
    Before you jump the gun: Rule below will not solve that, for various reasons.
    Thanks much in advance.

  • Multiple text captions on one slide?

    Hi, i have question about multiple text captions on one slide of my project. I want o change content of text caption by clicking on different buttons on the slide.
    There are 4 buttons on slide and in the middle of the slide there is text caption. Is it possible to change content of the caption by clicking the button or is there some way to do it different (hide or show different captions etc..)?
    thx martin

    Hi Mister C
    I'm curious about something. You are using an action I've seen suggested elsewhere here. I use a similar approach but found that I had issues with the approach you are showing.
    My approach is to use the rdcmndGotoFrame rdinfoCurrentFrame - 5
    Personally, I've seen it where the way you point out failed in many cases for me. By "backing up" the playhead five frames or so, things then worked as the playhead drifted back to the pause point.

  • HP D110 AIO printer. Prints jam when printing with wireless, but not when hooked to USB cable! HELP!

    I have a HP D110. It jams the paper when I print with wireless, but not when I use USB cable. Any ideas?

    From what you describe you are having issues printing from MS Office. Have you had trouble printing from other resources on your computer (e.g. from the internet or another program)? The first thing I am going to suggest is that we start by uninstalling and reinstalling the printer from the resources available online. 
    First if you use a USB cord, make sure to remove it (this is important). Do not plug it back in until the software directs you to. Then go through the Devices and Printers, Programs and Features and Device Manager folders and insure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. Then as directed, restart the computer. 
    In the START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here I want you to press Ctrl+A and hit DELETE. Some of the files will not allow you to delete them, skip those files and delete the majority that allows it. 
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNameId=3562006&lang=en&cc=us...
