Website Examples Animation Templates for Blend & SketchFlow

Hi All,
Apologies for asking stupid questions... I just don't have time spending years looking over white papers attempting to find or understanding all the changes, essentially name changes for marketing purposes.... IE:  1970's Mainframe Computing, Today's
"The Cloud"  Very Exhausting!
I enjoy typical animated Flash Websites,  I know that there is a Microsoft product available that can do the same?  Need to verify what THAT IS?
Silverlight? Blend? Expression?
Can someone please point me to some animated web templates? in either of these MS Products? 
Expression is a great product,    Seems to me that SketchFlow is useless in VS2013 with Blend?  Why not just have SketchFlow features in blend so that we don't have to prototype, then have to open another project to actually build on
what we have just designed?  Why would I want to pre build or design something only to have to do it over again in another project in the same programming tool?  Can I finish up a project in SketchFlow to a fully working application or website?  
about as clear as mud... 
Im very sure that most of you will not even understand what my problem is as being so confusing and convoluted?  which is exactly my point!  If the powers that be would make up their mind what they want to use as web development tools that would
be a very helpful start.
I need an example full on website animation examples done in Silverlight, expression, VS2013Blend or whatever tools is now using.   Really? must be that funny plant.

Another thing is, my menu bar will be in a frame so I
need to also include target=MainFrameThat's a little deceptive, confused me for a few moments since Java has it's own "Frames" (and HTML frames are meant here). But I have no idea how to point at different frames from java, my understanding is that it comes from the html, not the url, so it may not be possible (at least not this way). Search for it (but you'll got lots of Java frames returned)
As for the different domains, have a look here:
[url http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/applet/Applet.html#getCodeBase()]Applet.getCodeBase()
Returns the directory (and domain I assume) that your applet is in. And I just checked, www.something.com/someFolder/../index.html works fine for me.
So frames aside, this seems to be your solution. As long as everything is relative to the directory the applet's html page is in, it looks like it will work.
Careful though, it looks nasty if for some reason you manage to get your menu to load the page your menu is in, you might end up with more ../'s than you can poke a stick at (www.something.com/someFolder/../someFolder/../someFolder/../index.html)
Good luck,

  • A few questions on making animated buttons for a website Nav

    Hello, I have a few questions on creating some animated buttons for a nav.
    There are 2 actions I want to trigger on moue over.
    If I want to use a static (PNG) image that I created in Photoshop for the actual button, can I use that? I want to smoothly slide button down on mouse-over and slide back up on mouse off. If I push part of the button off the "canvas" (sorry, this is coming from a Photoshop guy) will it disappear in the final animation? Another way to put that is, if I put an animated element off the white area, will it no longer show up in the movie (.swf) when it's published?
    For the second part; you can see a bit of what I want to do if you look at this website's top Nav: http://www.photoshopsupport.com/index.html
    I need the "light" above the button and it's going to be on another colored <div> so I can't set one solid BG color for my flash document. But I want to achieve the effect of the "bar" lighting up above the button and the actual button sliding down upon moue over.
    Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Regarding this button problem mentionned by kglad, it is easily overcome with a little trick.
    I call this the undesired "jumpy button". Your button starts to hesitate down-back-down-back quickly, like it's a bug, and then it settles.
    What you could do is create a simple sprite or movieclip containing only a simple shape, whatever the color, put it on top of your button's graphic, change this sprite/movieclip's alpha to 0, then add your mouse events on this invisible "target" instead of your graphic. So, when you mouse over, you have the graphic move, not the invisible "target".
    Sometimes, for this invisible target, you will be using a movieclip, not a sprite, so you can easily add your own properties on it.
    Example:
    var graphicBtn:Sprite; // your png
    var targetBtn:MovieClip; // your invisible target, created with code or not
    targetBtn.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);
    targetBtn.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, graphicBtn.width, graphicBtn.height);
    targetBtn.alpha = 0;
    targetBtn.mygraphic = graphicBtn;
    targetBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onOver);
    targetBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onOut);
    addChild(graphicBtn);
    addChild(targetBtn);
    function onOver(event:MouseEvent):void
         TweenLite.to(event.target.mygraphic, 0.25, {y:40, ease:Back.easeOut});
    function onOut(event:MouseEvent):void
         TweenLite.to(event.target.mygraphic, 0.25, {y:0, ease:Cubic.easeOut});
    So you see, you can have only one function (well, 1 for over, 1 for out) used for all your buttons. You can add as many properties you need on your movieclip to make that one-function flexible.
    Here I used GreenSock's tweening engine, but use the one you prefer (Here, I am moving the graphicBtn in y for 0.25 second).

  • Animated Intro for Website

    I want to create an animation for a website I'm making for an assessment. I can make the actual animation okay, but can anyone let my know exactly what to do in terms of the Actionscript stuff (I have no idea). When the intro finishes, I want it to load straight into my website, in the same browser. Where would I put the actionscript coding for that? And I also want a "Skip Intro" button, so what would I put in to make it do that? I have never done anything like this before so have no idea what to do and any help would be great. Even any links to a good tutorial would be helpful because I've been trying to find some and haven't been very successful.
    Also, do I need the website to be up and running before I put the URL in Flash or is there a way to practise with it while I am still making it. I am using Dreamweaver 8 and Flash 8 for the website and animation.
    Thanks for any help!

    Long time I do not make something related for web, but If memory do not fails me, I think this is what you need:
    For the action script you need to load directly to your webpage as soon it ends, it have to go on the end of the time line since you want it to load when it ends.
    There is a little panel that could help you called "Behaviors".
    http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/903/picture7.gif
    Or you can type it if you want:
    getURL("http://www.adobe.com","_self");
    For the skip button:
    Well, you can do two things:
    A) Set the same script (getURL) on the button.
    B) Set gotoAndPlay to "last frame where you inserted the getURL script".
    I should suggest to use option A since is simpler and right to the action.

  • Word Templates for Office:mac

    I am trying to locate the Legal templates for MS word that are compatable with Office:mac.
    My search of the Microsoft downloads website came up with nothing. In fact the few templates I found were more along the lines of novelties rather than the full blown templates downloads.
    Does anyone know where the legal Pleadings/Forms templates are found? I am particularly interested in where the case-builder programs are.
    Thanks,
    Doug

    MS Word templates are usable on both platforms Windows and Macintosh.
    For example I downloaded the Pleadings form located here;
    Pleading form with 32 lines
    after expanding the form with Stuffit Expander it opened right up in Word for Mac.
    When you first hit the download button you will see another page that tells you your system isn't compatible. It isn't talking about the template, it is talking about the Windows BS built into the MS website for automatic downloading. Just hit the download button on that page and your file will download in the Safari Download manager.

  • Flash templates for iweb

    are there any templates where we can insert flash into an existing iweb site?

    I just finished dealing with this battle. First the code that was provided to you from Carson (first reply) is crucial to load your flash movie into your website. Follow his instructions and you will easily be able to add flash movies.
    Now for creating the content. There is a couple of options. I used iWorks '08 Keynote to create a flash introduction. Basically you can create a slide show with animations and then convert it to Quicktime. You can either use the Quicktime file as a movie insert or convert the Quicktime to a flash file. Please note that the export to flash feature within Keynote will remove alot of your slide transitions and animations. Thus, if you want flash you should export it to Quicktime to keep all transitions and animations. Then you can use Adobe Flash C3 to convert it to flash or any other flash converter software (such as the products sold from the link posted above).
    If you want to get a little flashier there is a software called The Ad Creator (http://www.flashadcreator.com/)
    This software has about a 100 templates for flash introductions. It is meant for companies but you can easily adapt it to your personal website by adding photos and changing captions. I just bought it but have not done anything yet on my website.
    You can view a sample introduction made from Keynote and then converted to flash on my website.

    Bills are created based on Word RTF file with BI Publisher. Reszulting file is one big PDF file, which has many pages.
    Word RTF template is grouped on BILLS.ID field with page break option. So one BILLS.ID may have one or many pages (according data).
    How to create RTF template (for PDF BI Publisher generation) with reseting page numbers when grouping value change.
    Page numbers are in footer in format

    total_group_pages is total page number of pages in group (defined with BILLS.ID field).
    I need to reset numbering whenever BILLS.ID (group) change.
    Example:

    Simple question.. Does your posting deal with an APEX issue or a BI Publisher issue? The posting you have deals with the RTF add-on for Word that builds report layouts for BI Publisher. I suggested in my response that you move it to a more relevant forum..
    If you feel that me alerting you to the fact your are VIOLATING forum policy is an issue, please feel free to ask others their view.. (posting to a 3 year old closed thread, creating MULTIPLE threads for a single issue..) You do NOT seem to get the idea that posting this in the Bi Publisher support forum would probably get you a BETTER response than here.. Asking pl/sql questions here will also get people to refer your questions to the PL/Sql Support forum..
    Also, here is a POSSIBLE answer from the BI Publisher Forum: http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=594805
    This Is The APEX SUPPORT forum, we deal with SUPPORT questions on APEX (Application Express)..

  • Creating Parameters in RTF Template for BI Publisher Report

    hi,
    I have created Parameters in my BI Publisher Report and in SQL query. But i need to create same parameters in RTF Template , so that when i publish this report in dashboard , parameters will be visible. Can you please tell me how to create Parameters in RTF Template for BI Publisher Report ? I am not finding option. Please let me know .
    Thanks in advance
    Gayathri.

    all the parameter's value will be there in your xml .
    just you need to add parameter heading and corresponding xml tag name to get the parameter value on the report.
    if u dont have you can try like below
    https://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/get_your_parameters_here_guv
    Declare Parameter in RTF Template
    Before you use the parameter in the RTF template file you need to declare it first. You can do so by having the following syntax.
    <?param@begin:%parameter_name%?>
    Note: where %parameter_name% is the parameter name that you have created at the BI Publisher Server UI.
    Here is an example:
    <?param@begin:param1?>
    Use it in RTF Template!
    Once it’s declared in the RTF template you can start using it as the same way you use the variable. You need to just add ‘$’ prefix in front of the parameter name. Here is the example:
    <?$param1?>
    The above example would print the parameter value in the report output. If you want to use this value in your condition or calculation you can simply use it as ‘$param1’. Yes, it’s that simple.
    If you are not sure if and how the parameter values are passed to the report when you run the report you can use this command in your RTF template, which will return all the parameter values passed to the RTF template at the runtime.
    <?xdoxslt:getXDOProperties($_XDOCTX)?>

  • Help creating an animated gif for a navbar!!

    Hey guys, I am very new to fireworks and dreamweave and am having a problem that is making my head spin! I have to create a simple animated .gif for a navigation bar (which will be made in dreamweaver). The navigation bar should function similar to this: http://www.eden.rutgers.edu/~baronson/ITI320/Exercise2/functionality.html. Essentially, all that is happening is I create this animated image and in dreamweaver, when I create the AP NavBar, I set the mouseover to that image. My problem is that in comparison to this website's mouseover image  ( http://www.eden.rutgers.edu/~baronson/ITI320/Exercise2/images/navi/audience_OVER.gif ) my animated gif has multiple layers and states, where as his only has one layer. I can't seem to figure out how to include both the text, and the gif image, and incorporate them under the same layer.
    A follow up question after having found how to incorporate both into the same state, would I have to lasso out each piece of my animated gif for the individual state I want to have it applied to?
    Any help/pointer to where the information can be found would be greatly appreciated. I've read through the manuals and watched many of Babbage's videos but haven't been able to figure this out. Thanks!

    Your gif doesn't need to have multiple layers, but it does need to have multiple states. To save yourself a lot of confusion, create the animated gifs first, and then export them. Create your navbar in the usual way, with simple rolloveres or swap images. Export the navbar.Rename the animated gifs with the names of the over state of the navbar images, and then delete (or mone to another folder) the over state images of the navbar. Move the renamed gif animations into the image folder of the navbar. Preview in browser. The animated gifs should have replaced the original over state of the buttons.

  • How to use myself JSP template for my projects

    I am using JDev 10. .I realized the default templates of JSP in JDev don't match with my projects so I want to create my own template for JSP Pages. I read some threads in Forum about this problem but I am a beginner, I cannot understand fully and don't know the way to create template nor adding it into Project. Someone can tell me where I can find the tutorials, examples(demo).
    Thank you very much.

    Hi,
    The Bex report uses the Standard Template 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN while it is executed.
    So if your sure that the look and feel of all the Reports is going to remain same, you don't need to even attach all these Queries to Templates in WAD.
    When you execute the BEx query, it would pick up the standard template and run it in portal.
    But if you want to customize the Report Template:
    1) You can change this standard template 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN  and customize it according to ur requrement in WAD.
    2) Or you can create a copy of this standard template and change it as required. Then change the template in spro (transaction RSCUSTV27) to point to this Z template.
    Let me know if you need more details.
