What kind of variable / advanced action would I need to do this?

Captivate 8.
I have a menu slide (of sorts) to allow users to choose which of four topics they want to explore first. It has 4 graphics with click boxes. Each click box jumps to a specific slide and the the user progresses through that section. At the end of that section, the user is automatically brought back to the menu slide, where they could then choose their next topic.
I want them to be required to complete all four topics (in any order).
When they have completed all four topics and are bounced back to the menu slide for the fourth and final time, I would like that slide to then have a button on it that they would click to move to the conclusion slides for the module.
Thanks advance for the shove in the right direction.

Another time, why is Search in this forum not working as it should. Have posted same answer at least 10 times.
Have a look at: Captivate 8 - First Adventures - Captivate blog   where I use shared actions to create such a dashboard.
First tip: you don't need a click box + graphic, because you can use a shape button filled with that graphic:, see Turn an Image into a Button - Captivate blog
You need to create as many user variables as you have topics: v_one, v_two, .... with a default value of 0. They will be toggled to 1  in the actions.
For each shape button (or click box if you really want to use two objects instead of one) you'll need a conditional advanced action with two decisions. I will label the button that has to appear after each topic has been visited at least once, Bt_Next. It is initially hidden.
First decision of the advanced or shared action is a mimicked Standard action:
'Always'
IF 1 is equal to 1
   Assign v_one with 1   for the first topic, for a shared action v_one will become a parameter
   Jump to .... slide_11     slide to jump to, will be another parameter
Second decision will check the value of the variables, and show the Next button if they have all the value 1
'Checker'
IF v_one is equal to 1  AND
    v_two is equal to 1 AND...
Show Bt_Next
BTW, long time ago I published this solution (with advanced actions) with a more detailed explanation: Template for reusing script? - Captivate blog
Now it is no longer necessary to create a template to reuse advanced actions, you just create shared actions.

  • I need in Formula Node to assign to the variable value 4000000000!!! What kind of variable it should be???

    i've just tryed to write unsigned in32, but it does not understand 'unsogned'... But i need variable to be unsigned, because the max value = 4000000000... So, how can i solve this probleme???

    Hi,
    I don't see exactly what you're trying to do here.
    Where do you want to assign the variable 4000000000 to? If you want it as an
    input, just use a dbl, with only zeros behind the coma.
    Note that an integer is a number without any decimals. An integer in LabVIEW
    is this, but with an extra limitation that it can only be 32 bits... So a
    dbl can be an integer.
    If the input dbl is not an integer, use round, round to -inf or round to
    +inf to make it one. This can also be done if the output needs to be an
    integer.Inside the formula node floor(x), int(x), intrz(x) or ceil(x) can be
    used to make integers.
    I hope this is what you mean... I can't see any problems doing this.
    Regards,
    Wiebe.

    Have a PowerBook G4 with software 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.  Got a new iPhone 5 - and seems iTunes does not recognize it. What kind of software update(s) do I need?

    None. An iPhone 5 requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer to be synced from a Mac, which is above the maximum for a PowerBook G4(10.5.8.)

  • I have old unedited home video doesn't seem to recognize it. What process or software or both do I need to do this?

    I have old unedited home video doesn't seem to recognize it. What process or software or both do I need to do this?

    The easiest and cheapest way is to use HandBrake to convert your DVDs to H.264 that FCP X can use.
    Download Handbrake free here  http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php
    Put your DVD in the Mac, launch HandBrake and let it rip your DVD to H.264
    You can then import the files into FCP X.
    Professional editors will be apoplectic about me recommending HandBrake but for what you are doing the quality will be fine.

  • What kind of code signing certificate do I need for Profile Manager?

  • I need help identifying an old Macintosh game: it was a painting game where you rode a roller coaster to an art museum and you got to pick what kind of art work you were going to make. This was the early 90's and I've been trying to hunt it down

    I need help identifying an old Macintosh game: it was a painting game where you rode a roller coaster to an art museum and you got to pick what kind of art work you were going to make. It was animated, 2D i believe. This was the early 90's and I've been trying to hunt it down. I think there was some kind of animal in it, a giraffe maybe?

    Could you be thinking of Microsoft Home's "Fine Artist" for Macintosh, as shown in this Amazon.com listing?  This program was bundled with the Performa series of Macs during the mid-90s.

    What is Airport Utility and why do I need to access Airport witeless devices in order to backup my iMac using Time Machine...HELP!!! PLEASE??

    AirPort Utility is required to configure an Apple AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule.
    Time Machine can use a Time Capsule or a locally connected volume. You only need to use AirPort Utility if you are using a Time Capsule.

  • What kind of variable?

    Hi
    I have a vi contains some subvis.One of my subvi take data and process that. Based on the result of processing some variable outside that subvi must be set by user and after that the subvi will continue more processing on data. Now how can i define that variable in a manner that when i change its value exactly my subvi take new value. it must be mentioned that i have no idea about that variable's value.(how can i define a variable for subvi in order to be updated when i change its value out of that subvi?)
    Thanks

    This Nugget on Action Engines talks about how to share data between multiple threads while avoiding possible race conditions.
    They are a very power code construct that are used by many of the most advanced LV developers while alos being useful for the less experienced. Please review that nugget to find out how they are implemented and the advantages of their use.

  • What kind of electric adapter/converter do I need to use my MacBook Pro and iPhone in Ireland?

    I'm going to Ireland and want to take my MacBook Pro and my iPhone with me. There are a wide range of adapters and converters on the market but I need to know specifically what I need to access electric power while in Ireland. Do I need an adapter of some kind, or do I need only a converter of some kind, or do I need both?
    Thanks for any help anyone can give me.
    Bob

    Your existing AC chargers are auto-switchable between 110 or 230 volts. You will probably need an outlet adaptor that you can purchase in most AAA travel stores or local computer shops. Or you can purchase Apple's World Travel Kit.

  • What kind of vocal compression is Christina Grimmie using to get this sound for her voice?

    It's been driving me crazy I can't figure this out. I'm not an audio engeener of any kind but I'd like to be. I help record my girlfriend's youtube videos but I fail to acheive to make her voice sound as great as this. I'll just kinda list some of the equipment I have if it's any help. I'm also pasting both Chrstina Grimmie's videos and my girlfriend Madi's videos here as a reference. I really appreciate the help this forum gives.
    I use Logic Pro X - Focusrite Pro 40 - an AKG 420. I use other insturments as well.
    Christina Grimmie - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OA4fdiOqNMw
    Madi Denton - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i13pUCBiHq0
    Thank you for the help.

    It's more a combination of reverb, Eq & compression - reverb especially (large ballad style hall or plate). The Christina Grimmie video has had some mixing/ post production - you can hear when she's talking in the intro, the voice sounds very different to her performance, (suggesting that the audio was recorded separately into Logic, then synced to picture).
    I'm assuming you're recording video & audio direct to your camcorder (via the Focusrite) - you could try experimenting with some of the channelstrip performance presets (like "Female ambient lead vocal"), though you'll need to tweak. A better solution would be to record the piano to one stereo track, vocal to another mono track, then spend time mixing, & finally syncing to video. It sounds like you're monitoring the piano from it's in built speakers (though I could be wrong) - I'd recommend using it's outputs, so that the mic doesn't pick it up.
    A few other recording tips : I'd move Madi & the piano a little further away from that wall, & possibly hang a nice rug behind to reduce the boxiness. I'd also move the mic a little closer to get a more intimate sound. Lastly, make sure Madi is singing straingt into the mic - it looks a little off axis which can seriously change the tonality. As a rule, you can't go far wrong if you're singing straight at the logo on most cardiod mics. A small pop shield or windshield would also help with sibilance (which is even quite prominent in Christina's performance).
    Best of luck!

  • What kind of external battery pack do I need for a Macbook Pro?

  • Internal power - what kind of molex plug do I have/need?

    Hi all!
    A quick question that I haven't been able to find the answer to:
    Like so many others, I recently lost the 1900XT graphics card in my 1st gen Mac Pro (it's toast).
    I replaced it with a flashed PC card - the 4870 (1 Gig).
    Since I have a flashed PC card, I guess I'm not totally confident that it will control it's own fan speed accurately, since it's not meant to run on a Mac, and I don't want to lose another card to excess heat (the card seems to get REALLY hot really quick, but I never paid much attention to how the air was coming from the 1900XT, so I don't have a good basis for comparison)
    So my question is two-fold:
    1. Do I have any reason for concern, or is a flashed card going to monitor it's own temperature fine, and adjust the fan accordingly?
    2. Is the extra PCI-slot fan I bought at a local PC shop necessary, or even compatible with my Mac Pro? It seems to have a huge molex connector (around 1 inch - the "old" kind apparently) while my Mac Pro seems to only have smaller molex... Do I need an adapter to put this thing in?
    Can you tell I'm paranoid to lose another video card to heat? I don't have the $$ to do this again...
    Thanks for your help!

    Why don't try the ThinkVantage System Update program to automatically look for drivers?
    And have you installed the Intel graphics? If your machine has Nvidia Optimus you also need to install Nvidia driver.

  • What kind of replacement charger cable do I need for my Acer Tab 8 A1-850?

    I have a brand new Acer Tab 8 A1-850 (which is so far working quite nicely) but the USB charger cable was accidentally ruined after an unfortunate encounter with hot candle wax. I'd like to buy a replacement cable but know not all micro USB cables are the same. What specs should I be on the lookout for when shopping for a cable of appropriate size?

    The cable should be just the normal one, the special smarts that tell the tablet to charge at full speed is in the power brick.
