Way to conduct anonymous polling?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 19 Dec 2012 05:14:03 GMT

At the end of a meeting/class, I'd like to get some anonymous feedback as a way to increase honesty. But polling lets me see the voter's reply. Bummer... is there a way to do this?

Flash movie with sound

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 11 Jan 2013 02:45:44 GMT

Gurus.... help please....

We created a bunch of animated Flash presentations years ago (when it was Macromedia) with ActionScript and synchronized a Flash sound file to play along with them using an ActionScript slider that advances the frame in each file (animated graphic and sound) as it goes. But this means it is two separate flash files (kept in the same directory). Not elegant, but it worked. To present them, we created a series of linked HTML pages that had the animated swf embedded and we found a way for it to be able to drive the sound swf in the same folder.....

Fast forward to today and we want to present them in Connect. Obviously they will play more efficiently if uploaded to the hosted server, but the sound doesn't play for the participants. What must we do? We love the vector based graphics, so I don't want to turn them into Flash movies. Besides, we already have a play bar. So here are my challenges.

1. Get the sound to play for the participants

2. Get the flash movies organized so it is as easy clicking forward and back arrows to summon them (we have dozens of them and picking the from an open dialog is too time consuming, error prone and they aren't displayed in the right order).

Maybe a simple solution is to find a way to pipe my PCs sound into the stream going to the participants and not involve any Flash alterations?

P.S.

Someone asked a related question in 2008 and I saw no replies. If I could get into the forum from the Adobe Connect User Community that was lost in the hack, maybe I could find something there...

Is the Add-In a wrapper?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 19 Dec 2012 06:06:06 GMT

When I get a flash update from Adobe, does that impact the Connect Add-In? Does it need to update if it is sharing the Flash that was installed with the latest update? I am trying to 'wrap' my head around what the Add-In really is....

Inviting to a meeting confusion

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 13 Dec 2012 21:30:13 GMT

When I create a new meeting and add participants it doesn't let me send them an invite as the text below indicates it should. When I tested further, it appears if you say 'anyone who has the link can attend' and yet have named participants (seemingly a contradiction), the text below is based on having participants, but it appears the logic for the buttons is saying if anyone can get in with the link, then they are going to get the link from some other effort.

How would you take it in that scenario? I'd like to have it send the email, because I listed participants, but if they later shared the email with others by forwarding, that is there decision. I'll submit this to Adobe, but want to see how others feel.
