Way to break up published file into several SWFs?

I really really want to use Captivate to develop training for
my organization but one aspect of it is in our way - the size of
the published SWF file. We're going a lot of system simulation and
Captivate would be a great fit - but our LMS IT dept. has a fit
when they see the files we need to post are 6MB+. Is there a way to
have Captivate break each slide up into it's own SWF? Like Breeze
does to Powerpoint slides. We're looking to publish this training
to bank branches and bandwidth is tight. You don't want a bunch of
steaming SWFs disrupting ATM and other branch traffic.
If not, this is a much need feature to add in version
3.

Hi nudoru,
I use a similar approach to get around the all-or-nothing
background audio looping. For each project I have three
sub-projects.
1. The first is the intro project - a corporate
marketing/branding-provided AVI converted into SWF with overlaid
title Text Animation at the end.
2. That branches into the main "body" project which contains
the looped background audio and main presentation content.
3. When the body reaches the end it branches into the closing
project consisting of a video (another AVI converted into SWF) and
copyright notice slide.
At the end of the closing project I can then branch back to a
main menu/project, a website, or just stop. None of my individual
presentations are longer than three to four minutes though, and I
try to limit the quantity of full-motion capture that comes from
excessive window moving and resizing. As a result, the bulk of the
body project swf file size comes from the audio track, ~1MB/minute.
Hope this helps!
Andrew.

Breaking a large file into multiple SWFs

Hi -
I've created a project with about 70 slides, including a few that contain full motion video. Is there a way to publish each slide as an individual SWF? If I accomplish publishing each as an individual SWF should I use Aggregator to connect them, or should I have the end action of each slide be open the next slide?
Thanks

Select all and Hide all the slides in the filmstrip (rightclick when in the filmstrip) then UNHIDE the one you are pubishing, this will result in only publishing the one you have deselected. You will have to pubish 70 times, but it will save you from cutting and pasting them into new projects.

Is there a way to import large XML files into HANA efficiently are their any data services provided to do this?

1. Is there a way to import large XML files into HANA efficiently?
2. Will it process it node by node or the entire file at a time?
3. Are there any data services provided to do this?
This for a project use case i also have an requirement to process bulk XML files, suggest me to accomplish this task

Hi Patrick,
I am addressing the similar issue. "Getting data from huge XMLs into Hana."
Using Odata services can we handle huge data (i.e create schema/load into Hana) On-the-fly ?
In my scenario,
I get a folder of different complex XML files which are to be loaded into Hana database.
Then I gotta transform & cleanse the data.
Can I use oData services to transform and cleanse the data ?
If so, how can I create oData services dynamically ?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thank you.

Source code organization: How to divide large JavaScript files into several smaller JavaScript files?

Hello,
some of my JavaScripts have become considerably large over time. What I would like to do is to split a single (large) JavaScript source file into several smaller source files plus an additional JavaScript file containing code or directives to recombine the split files.
In other words, I would like to organize my JavaScript source code into re-usable modules.
Although I searched the Acrobat JavaScript developer documentation and did a lot of Web searching, I still have no idea...
whether the Acrobat JavaScript scripting environment itself does provide a code structuring mechanism
how to properly organize large Acrobat JavaScripts in general.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot in advance!

Document-level scripts are not accessible to other documents/scripts, so they're not a good option.
Folder-level scripts, on the other hand, are accessible to all other documents/scripts. So if you have a general function that creates a 3D annotation, for example, you can place it in a folder-level script and then call it from other scripts (you will probably need to provide it a handle for the document and properties of the annotation).
One thing to be aware of, though, is that the folder-level scripts are loaded alphabetically, so don't put a reference in script aaa.js to something that loads in zzz.js, or you will get an error message when you open Acrobat. (this is not a problem if zzz.js is not called during the launch of Acrobat)

Many CD's will include a DVD disc as well containing music videos. Is there a way to import these video files into iTunes as well as the music files?

I have a number of music CD's that also include a DVD which has music videos or concert movies. Is there a way to import these video files into iTunes as well?

wjosten - thanks very much for the detailed instructions. I'll try this as soon as I get my replacement and it looks like you'll probably end up getting the green tick

FCP Splits QT movie file into several files... problem and solution.

Hi All,
I was having problems exporting a QT movie (Video Only) of a 20 min Reel within a Feature Film I edited. The Database was quite large - the film was 2Hrs and Footage was about 12X.
FCP would split the QT movie file into several files - only one of which was openable (either in FCP or the QT player). To my surprise, I also found that even though the file opened fine, I would get an error message when trying to copy it or its associated files over to another HD (Tiger would abort, after giving me an error No. and saying that there was an error while copying). The problem was repeatable and specific to this sequence.
After some testing, I found that copying the clips (Video Only) to another sequence and re-exporting, seemed to solve the problem. My take on this is that too many ( > 12? ) Audio tracks causes problems in FCP when the database is large.
But I do need these additional tracks. Any work arounds?
Thanks,
RD

First, look in System Settings, and see if you've checked the box to limit file size to 2GB. Uncheck that box. See if that helps.
Or it could just be a corrupt project causing the problem.

How to break the PDF file into images?

How to break the PDF file into images? There should be settings in Photoshop CS 6 that imports PDF file and break it into images. I have a short instruction:
2.    Open the file in Photoshop.
3.    A new window should open to Import PDF. Click on images, not pages import pdf into Photoshop.doc
4.    Select all the files shown (shift + click), Click O.K. Four files should open on your screen.
Was anybody successful with that?

Whether this is available solely depends on the structure of the PDF and whether it actually contains whole images that can be extracted separately. Depending on whatgoing on in the PDF this may simply not be the case and the images have been tiled and split up in multiple "objects" whose appearance can only be retained by rasrerizing the whole page...

Is there a way to Import After effect files into motion

I was wondering if there is a way to import after effects files into motion.

hi
no there is not. The only thing you can do is to export the layers out of AE as movies and import them into Motion. Of course you are then hard baking everything and you lose control, but that would be the same if you went to any other system.

How to split a big file into several small files using XI

Hi,
Is there any way to split a huge file into small files using XI.
Thanks
Mukesh

There is a how to guide for using file adapters, an "sdn search" will get you the document.
Based on that , read a file into XI, Use strings to store the file content and do the split
here is some code to get you started
===========
Pseudocode:
===========
// This can be passed in - however many output files to which the source is split
numOutputFiles = 5;
// Create the same number of filehandles as numOutputFiles specifies
open file1, file2, file3, file4, file5;
// Create an Array to hold the references to those filehandles
Array[5] fileHandles = {file1, file2, file3, file5, file5};
// Initialize a loop counter
int loopCounter = 0;
// a temporary holder to "point" the output stream to the correct output file
File currentOutputFile = null;
// loop through your input file
while (sourceFile.nextLine != null)
loopCounter++;
if (loopCounter == (numOutputFiles +1) // you've reached 5, loop back
loopCounter = 1;
currentOutputFile = fileHandles[loopCounter]; // gets the output file at that index of the array
currentOutputFile.write(sourceFile.nextLine);

How to break up a large .java file into several?

Hi,
I have a pretty large .java file containing many private methods. I rather not have to always work in this very large file. Is there a way to separate this into several smaller files, but to maintain the same relationship of all these private methods being part of the same class?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

I thought that would be the answer. This is my first
Java app. It uses Swing and I use NetBeans as my
IDE.
I knew it was getting too large, but I was trying to
avoid having to reimplement the whole thing. I have a
few more features to add and I can see this file
growing by another 300-400 lines.You'll find it a lot simpler to write the second time round. You really don't want to have classes that big
I do in fact have a couple other .java files where I
created separate classes. Its just that I really need
to rethink or redesign this whole thing.You do. Sounds like you've got one class that does too many things. What does this big class do? Adding new features shouldn't bloat your code this way

Compressing large file into several small files

what can i use to compress a 5gb file in several smaller files, and that will easy rejoined at a later date?
thanks

Hi, Simon.
Actually, what it sounds like you want to do is take a large file and break it up into several compressed files that can later be rejoined.
Two ideas for you:
1. Put a copy of the file in a folder of its own, then create a disk image of that folder. You can then create a segmented disk image using the segment verb of the hditutil command in Terminal. Disk Utility provides a graphical user interface (GUI) to some of the functions in hdiutil, but unfortunately not the segment verb, so you have to use hditutil in Terminal to segment a disk image.
2. If you have StuffIt Deluxe, you can create a segmented archive. This takes one large StuffIt archive and breaks it into smaller segments of a size you define.2.1. You first make a StuffIt archive of the large file, then use StuffIt's Segment function to break this into segments.
2.2. Copying all the segments back to your hard drive and Unstuffing the first segment (which is readily identifiable) will unpack all the segments and recreate the original, large file.I'm not sure if StufIt Standard Edition supports creating segmented archives, but I know StuffIt Deluxe does as I have that product.
Good luck!

Is there a way to combine 2 avi files into 1 file?

I have video clip split into 2 avi files and I want to combine them into 1 long file so I can convert the file type (I have iSquint) and import it to iTunes and then to my iPod. The best I can figure out is using iMovie but that makes the files HUGE and it says its gonna take 170+ min just to compress it for my iTunes.
So is there an easier and quicker way to combine these 2 files, because I hate part 1 and part 2 when watching videos.

If you like isquint then you will love it's big brother VisualHub from the same people.
http://www.techspansion.com/visualhub/
It has a facility to 'stich videos together' which is, I assume, what you want.
It is not free but pretty cheap
There are lots of other features
PS I have no connection with techspansion but I do like their software and attitude

Joining several swf files into one swf file

hello everybody
i've been dealing this issue for too long and decided to ask for help - how can I unite 15 swf files which placed in one folder to a one swf file???
i tried all kindes of merging softwares like "Join (Merge, Combine) Multiple SWF Files Into One Software" and "WinMerge" without success and tried to convert swf to flv (cause i found other merging software for flv files) but again...
I have CS5 so if i'll have to open Flash for this i will, though i'm trying to avoid that and even then i'm gonna need full instructions.
All i need is this simple thing so i'll appreciate very much any help
Thanks & Good Day

Hi Ned
Again - thank you very much.
I've got the source files and i'm on the run now.. kind of..
I did as you recomצended and used a code from one of the AS3 UILoader tutorials , and it seems to work:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
import fl.containers.UILoader;
var myLoad1 = "fastflipPage.swf";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(myLoad1);
loader.scaleContent = false;
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
loader.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);
loader.load(request);
loader.load(request);
function progressHandler (event:ProgressEvent):void
status_txt.text = "Percentage Loaded" +
Math.round(event.target.percentLoaded);
function completeHandler (event:Event):void
status_txt.text = "Loaded Done";
So... i'm tring to find some answers to my next step : in the code above im loading only one file and i need to load 30 files so they could play one after another. i noticed that i can create many uiloader instances and load several external SWFs in the same scene without writing a script to each one of them... is that right? and if so, how can i do that???
I'm full of hope to figure this task, meantime will look for more answers
Thanks in advance

Best way to embed an Mov file into interactive flash game?

Hey,
just a quick query. I'm creating an interactive flash game for a university project. It's along the lines of Guitar Hero, Tap Tap Revolution, Boom Boom Rocket etc..
At the moment the game comprises of streaks of notes generated by Actionscript which the user much hit the corresponding key when notes are in the receptor. The background at the moment is an audio spectrum analyser created using AS based on the music playing.
I want to add loop movie file as the very background of the stage and was just wondering what was the best way to place it there with the least ammount of overheads. At the moment I have it in a child movie clip placed on the stage, in which I use File -> Import and embeded the FLV file into the time line. This works, however lags out quite badly.
Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks in advance,
John Minns

Have you tried this method?
1. Save as new file.
2. With your usual color management preferences selected, run Xtras>Color>'Name all colors'.
3. In color swatches list, select all colors. From swatches pop-up menu 'Make RGB'.
4. In Preferences>Color, set color management settings to 'None'. The RGB colors should look about the same as they did with color management on.
Now you should be able to export to Flash with RGB colors that look quite close to your CMYK version of the file.
This should work the same in FH9 or FHMX. I hope it does the trick for you.
