Anti-spam bot code

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 10 Nov 2014 11:34:25 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have the code below in my news detail layout. To try and combat spam-bots I'm using javascript to insert the action url on key press for the comments form. This type of code works perfectly well on all other forms on the site but for some reason it won't work on a comment form, ie. the action doesn't get inserted.

Just wonderd if anyone could give me any clues?

Thanks in advance.

<label>Enter Word Verification in box below {module_captchav2}</label>

</div>

$( "#catratingform2343" ).on( "keypress", function( event ) {

var action = $("#catratingform2343").attr("action");

if ( typeof(action) === "undefined" || action === null || action === "" ) {

var url = "/RatingProcess.aspx"

var params = "?OID={module_oid}&OTYPE={module_otype}";

$( "#catratingform2343" ).attr("action",url + params);

}

});

function checkWholeForm2343(theForm){var why = "";if (theForm.EmailAddress) if (theForm.EmailAddress.value.length > 0) why += checkEmail(theForm.EmailAddress.value);if (theForm.CaptchaV2) why += isEmpty(theForm.CaptchaV2.value, "Enter Word Verification in box below");if (why != ""){alert(why);return false;}return true;}

Remove name from author list when editing blog posts

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 29 Oct 2014 01:35:51 GMT

Hi everyone,

When you edit a blog post you can choose an author from a drop down menu. As a site administrator, I noticed that my name is in this list for the sites that I manage. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to remove my name from this list?

Appreciate any help.

Change payment status for COD order only

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 20 Oct 2014 22:49:10 GMT

Hi,

I know that if I click on the edit button within any order, I can click a button to the right of the Status and a window pops up listing the status types. If I click on "Purchase - Awaiting Payment", I can make that the default status type however this would make it the default for all payments, not just COD payments which is what I'm after.

I wondered if anyone knows if there is a workaround so that "Purchase - Awaiting Payment" is the status type only for COD payments and "Purchase - Payment Received" is for all other payments?

Thanks

anniversary date in email

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 05 Oct 2014 10:28:55 GMT

Hi,

We have two anniversary titles and two anniversary dates in our database. When sending out an email campaign I’d like to include both these dates in the email. When creating the email I noticed that I can put a tag called {tag_anniversarytitle} but this does not render anything when I test the email and as mentioned, I need the anniversary dates, not the titles in the email.

Can anyone tell me if this is possible?

Thanks in advance

nested ice tags

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 17 Sep 2014 12:11:29 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have the following code in an email newsletter template:

<td width="100%" style="font-size: 18px; color: #353535; text-align: center; font-weight: normal; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 24px;" ice:editable="line"><a href="#" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: #353535;"> Our work is <span style="color: #0081b7;">dedicated</span> to the prosperity of our clients </a></td>

I've placed ice:editable="line" within the td element. This works well but I also need the link for the text within the td to be editable also so I tried the following:

<td width="100%" style="font-size: 18px; color: #353535; text-align: center; font-weight: normal; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 24px;" ice:editable="line"><a href="#" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: #353535;" ice:editable="link"> Our work is <span style="color: #0081b7;">dedicated</span> to the prosperity of our clients </a></td>

I added ice:editable="link" within the a href but when I tested, this caused the line editable code to not work and neither did the link editable part work.

I thought maybe it was because I was nesting an editable region within another one. Could that be why it's not working? If yes, is there a workaround for this?

Appreciate any help.

Submit web form but not have data entered into CRM

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 02 Sep 2014 06:58:12 GMT

Hi All,

I need to disable the booking auto responder and ajax submit another webform behind the scenes and use that web form's auto responder for all the bookings so that the content of the email remains consistent.

I planned to create a web form with just an email address on it but I wondered if it was possible to not have that email address entered into the CRM once it's submitted, ie. the form is only being used as a trigger and I only need the autoresponder so I just need to know how to prevent any email address from being submitted to the database.

Appreciate any help.

Dreamweaver CC 2014 crashes when updating site cache

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 14 Aug 2014 02:12:27 GMT

Hi everyone,

I'm using Dreamweaver CC 2014 on the Mavericks operating system for mac. Dreamweaver attempts to update a site cache for one of my sites but then it pauses for a few minutes and then crashes. I thought it could have been a corrupted cache file so I deleted the MacFileCache-********.dat file inside the Dreamweaver configuration folder but this didn't work. I tested again and I got the same result.

I just wondered if anyone has had this problem or whether there's a workaround?

Appreciate any advice.

Insert list of blog posts assigned to specific category

send invoice attribute on action url causes invoice to be inserted on web form confirmation page

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 22 Jul 2014 13:03:12 GMT

Hi,

According to the BC documentation I can ensure that an invoice is sent once a web form is submitted if I add &SendInvoice=true to the action url of the form element. I have done this for a booking events web form and the invoice was successfully sent after submitting the form. The problem though is that in addition to sending the invoice by email, it also displays the invoice on the booking confirmation page. I only wanted the invoice to be sent by email but not display on the confirmation page so I wondered if anyone could tell me if there is a workaround for this?

Thanks in advance.

Underline breaks up after saving as pdf

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 04:09:42 GMT

Hi everyone,

I'm creating a form in Illustrator CS4 and I've put in some right aligned tabs and then selected the tabs and underlined them using the underline option in the Characters panel. When I save as a pdf though, the underline all breaks up into small dots, ie. it doesn't keep it as solid line.

Does anyone know why this happens or if there's a workaround?

Using a second blog for a testimonials page

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 06 Aug 2014 09:56:28 GMT

Hi,

I'm building a site for someone who will be purchasing the webMarketing hosting plan so I won't have access to any webApps. To get around this problem, I've created a second blog to be used to manage testimonials. I've created a page and have inserted the following module tag:

{module_blogpostlist,12775,3 template="/ModuleTemplates/Testimonials/testimonials-list-alt.tpl"}

The above references the testimonials blog with an ID of 12775 and it points to a custom list layout. When I test though by loading the html page, it shows the default list layout used for blogs under Module Templates and not my custom one.

I just wondered if anyone could tell me if it's actually possible to use an alternate list and detail layout for a second blog?

Thanks in advance.

Event booking auto-responder

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 22 Jul 2014 05:33:56 GMT

Hi everyone,

I've created an events web app so that it make it easier for the end user to create events in the backend. My form element looks like this:

The above enables the form to treat the web app as an event booking. My form has the auto-responder turned on and I have the following inside the auto responder:

Dear {tag_recipientfirstname},

Thank you for your registration. Please look our for your invoice which will arrive in a separate email.

We look forward to seeing you at this event.

{tag_webformresults}

When I test out the event though, the contents of the auto-responder doesn't match the above. Instead the email only shows:

Verify Your Booking

Click to verify your booking.

Dear Name.

Thank you for your booking

I tried turning off the autoresonponder in the form and then using the one in the web app but this didn't do anything, ie. I still receive the above email content.

I'm not even sure where it's coming from as I've checked all the system emails and I can't find anything.

Just wondered if someone could give me some advice to solve this?

Thanks so much.

Encrypt data on a web form sent to an email address

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 10 Jul 2014 05:02:24 GMT

Hi everyone,

I need to create a web form that collects data but instead of the data being entered into the crm, I need it to be sent to an email address. I'm worried though that the contents of the form could get intercepted before it's arrived at the intended recipient. Is there a way to encrypt form data in BC so that it's safe to send to an email address? Apparently you need to submit the form to a script on the server that will encrypt the data but I'm not sure if BC allows this.

Would really appreciate any help.

I know that I can set up a workflow for each of my forms where an email is automatically sent to specific people.

Thanks in advance for any help.

How to improve speech quality

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 06 Jul 2014 03:06:06 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have an old cassette tape where two people are talking. I recorded the tape into my computer using Audition.

Is it possible to target just the unclear speech and somehow have audible make it clearer?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

file upload on a form + revising a booking

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 30 Jun 2014 17:55:59 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have a couple of BC issues that I'm not clear on as follows:

If I put a file upload button on a web form, will the contents of the file be encrypted while it's being transferred to the server?
I've created some crm fields that are used on an events booking form. The fields allow the person registering for the event to add guests to their booking. My question is, if a person makes a booking and adds a few guests and the booking goes through successfully, can that person come back on another day and add another guest to their original booking using the original email address that they used to book the first time?

I'd be really grateful for any advice.

Thanks

Updating existing CRM fields using a web form

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 20 Jun 2014 09:02:14 GMT

Hi,

I've been reading through the new features list on the BC blog for the upcoming version of the platform and I wondered if someone could tell me if the new features will address the following problem:

I noticed that in the CRM, there are the following fields that already exist:

Title

Middle Name

Work Address 2

Home Address 2

Currently there is no way to create a web form and have these fields update in the backend other than by creating custom fields which I don't want to do as I want to use the existing ones.

Can anyone tell me if the new updates will address this issue and allow for the updates to take place?

Thanks so much for any information.

Customer name with details not outputting in custom report

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 07 Jun 2014 00:49:34 GMT

Hi,

In the CRM for both orders and event bookings, I've found that you can type in some notes into the "details" field for each customer contact. I needed to create a report so I went to the custom reports section of BC and chose "New Customer Report", then I chose "Customer and Orders" for the report type. Then under "Fields" I chose "Customer Name with details", but the results didn't show any of the details, ie. any of the text that I typed into the details field within the CRM, it only shows the customer name. I can only assume that "Customer Name with Details" means the details typed into those 2 fields within orders and event bookings because there's nowhere-else where you can type in something into a field called "Details".

Can anyone tell me why it's not outputting the contents of that field within the report and/or is this a bug within BC?

Thanks in advance

Using event booking tags in a web app

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 06 Jun 2014 22:11:02 GMT

Hi everyone,

I can use the following event booking tags within the event bookings module:

<span>{tag_bookingmonth} {tag_bookingday}, {tag_bookingyear} <em class="icon-calendar"></em></span><span>{tag_capacityempty}/{tag_capacity} <em class="icon-ticket"></em></span>

</div>

The above code works perfectly fine if using the bookings module but when I try to use the code in a web app, I'm not getting any results because, I assume, it's because the tags are specific to the bookings module. As I want to recreate this effect in a web app, does anyone know how I can get the tags to work with my web app?

Thanks in advance

Customer Details don't export when creating custom reports

Multiple seats for event booking

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 03 Jun 2014 10:02:49 GMT

Hi everyone,

My event bookings form is currently set up to only take 1 booking at a time. I found the information at the following url to extend the form for multiple bookings:

https://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1774

It said to add the following input field to the form:

I just have two questions about this. Firstly, if I go into my form and add in a custom field, I get the following code:

<tr>

<td><label for="CAT_Custom_330508">How many seats would you like to book? <span class="req">*</span></label><br />

</tr>

Each of the "name", "id" and "for" attributes in the above code, all have a custom field number, ie. Custom_330508. From what I have read, apparently I'm not supposed to change these as this is what BC uses to insert the data into the correct field within the CRM. The "id" and "name" values from the input field that I got from the abovementoned url are:

id=BookingAllocation name=BookingAllocation

So the problem is how can I get it to work if I'm not supposed to change the custom field number from my BC form. Also, once a person has entered a number into that field how can I get that field to update the amount field lower down on the form, ie. to multiply the number by the event cost?

I'd really appreciate any help.

Splitting web forms across multiple pages

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 01 Jun 2014 02:03:47 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have a really long Adobe Business Catalyst web form that I need to split across multiple pages so that it doesn't look so long. I'm using the instructions at the following url to put it together.

http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/kb/splitting-web-form-across-multiple.html

The instructions say to create a separate web page for each part of the form and then link the forms together using a modified action url.

The form is a membership application form and the user needs to choose a level of membership (representing the price) on the first form using a drop down menu. They don't pay until the 5th form which is where the credit card details and the amount field will be located. So my question is, if they're choosing the amount on the first form, how can I store that amount in order to populate the amount field on the 5th form?

Also, we're asking for Home Address, Work Address and PO Box Address. Each of these will be on a separate page. The problem is that on the last page will be the information for the credit card and because we're with Paypal they require a billing address to be submitted. So after asking the user for all those addresses, I don't really want to ask for a billing address on top so is there a way to store, say the Work address (on page 3), and then use that to populate the billing address on page 5? I know that I'm making an assumption that they want their work address to be the billing address but I'm not sure how to know the information any other way and if it's not their work address that they want to be their billing address then they can change it.

Also if each submit button on each of the pages is being submitted to the next form like this:

...can I assume that the payment won't go through until the 5th form where the billing and credit card details will be located?

This is all really confusing and I'd really be grateful for any help.

Thanks in advance.

Middle Name appearing twice in CRM

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 31 May 2014 13:19:54 GMT

Hi everyone,

I created a custom CRM form containing just a "Middle Name" Field. I noticed though in the admin under CRM > Customers that there is a "Middle Name" appearing under "Contact Details" and then a second "Middle Name" that appears further down the page under the "Middle Name" heading which is the custom CRM field.

I understand why the second one is there but I'm wondering how the first one got there. I looked in the web form editor and there is no Middle Name under the default fields.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Hide Show fields

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 29 May 2014 00:20:31 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have the following code on a web payment form that I'm creating. There are 3 checkboxes under the "Payment Method" label, ie. Credit Card, Pay Offline and Pay Pal. I'd like to have PayPal check by default and to have all the credit card fields below hidden until someone clicks the credit credit card radio button, at which point the credit card fields would be revealed. If someone then clicks either Paypal or Pay Offline then the credit card fields would disappear again.

I wondered if someone could tell me how to do this? Not sure if Javascript of J-query would be needed.

Really appreciate any help.

Payment form on event registration page

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 28 May 2014 14:17:19 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have the form code (below) on an events detail page. I've signed up for Paypal Website Payments Pro Gateway and have inserted the username, password and API signature in the Payment Gateways section of Business Catalyst. This is my first form so I'm trying to work out how to safely get it working and I have the following questions:

I tested the form by filling out the first name, last name and email address. I then chose "PayPal" as the payment method. After I clicked submit, the browser was redirected to the paypal website but even though I didn't put through a payment on the website, I received a notification email saying that I had registered for the event. So it doesn't seem to be working properly, ie. it's registering someone for the event even though a payment had not gone through. Can someone tell me how to solve this problem?
Also, the payment form itself contains fields for a credit card payment but when I click the radio button for PayPal the credit card fields still remain in place. Is there a way to make them disappear if someone has chosen PayPal?
I hardcoded the value into the amount input field and set it to read only. Can you tell me if this is safe or whether someone could potentially change the amount value. If it's unsafe, is there any alternate way to handle the amount?
I haven't included any billing address fields on the form as it is an event that they're registering for but can you tell me whether PayPal requires there to be address fields in order to accept a payment?
I've already registered for a PayPal Website Payments Pro account here in Australia and I've inserted the username, password and API Signature into the fields in the Payment Gateways section of BC. I noticed though that in the drop down menu for this Gateway it says "(US, CA, UK only). Does this mean that I'm unable to use this Gateway in Australia? I've signed up for an account here but does BC actually support it here?

I'd really appreciate any advice.

Thanks in advance

Social media code inside content holders

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 27 May 2014 10:15:21 GMT

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to integrate a Facebook Like button into the footer area of my website. I placed the button code that I got from the Facebook developers site into a file called "container.html" (located within the Default folder, inside the FacebookLike folder, inside the SociaMedia folder) on my website:

After placing the code into the file, I went into my content holder file and added the following code:

{module_facebooklike,moduleTemplateGroup="Default",language="en_US",url="{tag_itemurl_with host}",layout="standard",showFaces="true",width="300",verb="like",font="",colorScheme="lig ht",send=""}

When I viewed the file on the page though, I saw the above code snippet instead of the Facebook button.

When I tried adding the above code to a blog detail page though, the button rendered correctly. So can anyone tell me it's not possible to add social media code into content holders or if there is a workaround?

Thanks in advance for any help.

CRM form creation

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 26 May 2014 10:08:50 GMT

Hi everyone,

I'm quite new to Business Catalyst and I'm trying to create a CRM Form. The following set of system fields come ready under the contacts area when creating a regular web form:

Title

First Name

Last Name

I need to add another field to this block, ie. "Middle Name", so I created this as a custom CRM form. When I went back to my original regular form to insert the "Middle Name", I wanted to insert it between First Name and Last Name but there doesn't seem to be a way to insert it where I want it.

I have the same problem with the next block of information, ie. I use the following system fields for the home address:

Home Address

City

State

Zipcode/Postcode

Country

But I want to insert a Home Address2 field underneath the first Home Address input field. Again I created the custom CRM form with just this one field, i.e. Home Address2 but like the "Middle Name" mentioned above, I'm unable to insert it under the system "Home Address" field that's already in the form.

So can anyone tell me if I can solve the above problems or would I have to create a separate CRM form containing all the fields in each block. For example, I'd create my own customer Home Address form with the following fields:

Home Address

Home Address2

City

State

Zipcode/Postcode

Country

If the above is correct, then wouldn't that mean that the data would be stored at the bottom of the contact section in the backend instead of up the top as if I had used the regular contact fields?

Appreciate any advice offered.

Thanks in advance.

Script to find/change stroke in tables

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 19 Jul 2012 05:08:25 GMT

Hi everyone,

I posted this very same question about a month ago but I got no reply so I thought I'd try again. Even if I can't obtain a free script that will do what I need, I'm happy to look at paying for one if someone can point me in the right direction.

I'm looking for a script that will target the stroke weight in tables and change them to a lighter weight, eg. from 0.5pt to 0.3pt.

I have a script that targets the fill at the following url:

...but I'm looking for one that targets the stroke.

Just wondering if anyone might know where I can find one?

Thanks

Creating a TXT record

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 04 Apr 2014 07:09:47 GMT

Hi everyone,

I was asked to create a TXT record in business catalyst. I went into the "Add an advanced DNS Record" dialogue box and then chose TXT as the record type. I then pasted the following record data that I was given into the Record Data input field:

v=spf1 ip4:165.228.113.242 include:smtproutes.com include:smtpout.com ~all

When I tried to save the record, I got the following error:

You cannot add spf data to a text record. Please use SPF record type instead

Does anyone know what this means?

Really appreciate any help.

Contents of blog posts appearing in Google

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 28 Feb 2014 06:05:36 GMT

Hi everyone,

I've noticed that the contents of a blog on my website are coming up in the Google search results. The blog is being used to publish testimonials that are given by customers. When someone goes to the website and they click on the testimonials link, they can see a page with all the testimonials on it. The url for this testimonials page is:

www.mysite.com/testimonials

The problem is that in the Google search results, if someone clicks on the link that comes up in the results, it goes to a different url, ie.

www.mysite.com/_blog/Testimonials/post/customer_name/

The url listed above is different from the page seen on the live site, ie. www.mysite.com/testimonials

When I say it's different, I mean it's formatted differently and only shows the one post on the blog (ie. the one clicked on from Google), whereas if someone goes to the testimonials page on the live site, they see a whole list of testimonials and the page is formatted differently.

In the backend of the site within business catalyst, I tried to find the page called:

www.mysite.com/_blog/Testimonials/post/customer_name/

...but I can't find it in the site files.

So I guess my question is, does business catalyst automatically create these one-page blog posts and if yes, where are they stored. Secondly, since the blog posts are coming up in the google search results, is there a way for the link to go directly to the testimonials page, ie. www.mysite.com/testimonials instead of the seemingly temporary url that business catalyst creates where there is only the one post on the page.

Sorry if the above is at any way unclear but I'm struggling to understand all this.

I really appreciate any help.

Applying a colour to a 1 bit photoshop eps file

CS6 hyperlink problem

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 02 Jun 2012 02:16:32 GMT

Hi everyone,

In Indesign CS6, I created a new URL hyperlink and pasted the following link into the field:

http://law.ato.gov.au/atolaw/view.htm?docid=AID/AID2004688/00001

But when I click OK and then look in the URL field in the hyperlinks panel, I see that Indesign has changed the link to the following:

http://law.ato.gov.au/atolaw/view.htm%3Fdocid%3DAID/AID2004688/00001

Notice how it's swapping out the question mark (?) after .htm with %3F.

It's also swapping out the equals sign (=) with %3D.

This breaks the URL and makes it no longer workable.

I tried reinstalling Indesign but the problem still remains.

I wondered if anyone knows why this is happening and whether there's a workaround?

Appreciate any help.

Select all footnotes at once

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 11:50:26 GMT

Hi everyone,

I've just imported a very large Word file into Indesign CS4 but I need to select all the footnotes and choose "clear all overrides" so that they all have the correct styling. The problem is that I can only select one footnote at a time. I can't go "select all". This is really time-consuming so I wondered if there was some other way to target all the footnotes in one go?

Appreciate any advice.

Indesign won't export to pdf

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 21 Nov 2010 11:47:52 GMT

Hi everyone,

I've just upgraded to Indesign CS5. I've also downloaded the patch so that it's version 7.03.

When I try to export to pdf, I get an error that says: 1 problem was found with a background task: Failed to export an eps item on page A.

I get the same error when I try to export any file at all.

Anyone know why this is happening? It worked fine in CS4.

Appreciate any advice.

customizing email body on email submit button

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 14:28:20 GMT

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to modify what the body of the email will look like once the user has pressed an email submit button. In Livecycle designer, I clicked on the button and viewed the xml source. I scrolled down to the following line:

Then changed it to:

When I tested the button, the text "?body=new body" was appended to the subject line instead of being included in the body itself.

I wondered if anyone could tell lme where I'm going wrong?

Copying a table from Word to DW

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 06 Dec 2013 03:53:23 GMT

Hi everyone,

I noticed that when I copy/paste special a table from Word to Dreamweaver, that the code that DW creates includes the width and valign elements within each of the td tags. It also wraps a p tag around the contents of the td elements and includes an align element within the p tags.

I'm just looking for really clean html code for the table so it's just the basic code that makes up the table so I wondered if anyone knows if there is a way to tell DW not to include all the extra elements?

Thanks in advance.

Combining paragraph styles when generating a TOC

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 09 Mar 2011 07:30:17 GMT

Hi everyone,

The following is an example of what is on a title page for each chapter in a book that I'm working on:

Chapter 1

Chapter name

The above two lines are each on a separate line in the body of the document and are each styled with a unique paragraph style.

When I set up the table of contents, I need to have the two lines combined so that they're in the same paragraph, eg.

Chapter 1: Chapter name

I made sure that each of the paragraph styles relating to the abovementioned lines were both the same level when setting up the TOC, however when I generate the TOC, each of the entries are being put on separate lines, in separate paragraphs.

I wondered if there was a way around this, ie. to combine the two lines into 1 when the TOC is generated?

Appreciate any help.

Batch secure multiple pdf files

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 01 Oct 2013 09:54:27 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have around 100 separate 1page pdf files. Each of these files needs to have security applied that ensures that no changes are made, low-res printing is allowed and a password needs to be applied to prevent the security settings being changed.

Since there are so many files, I wondered if someone could tell me if there is a way to batch apply the security settings to all files at once? I'm using Acrobat X on a mac.

Would really appreciate any advice.

Thanks in advance.

Video demo slide will not play on second view

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 16 Sep 2013 07:55:16 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have inserted a video demo recording slide. I also have a table of contents. When I publish the project and test this is what happens:

I'm able to click the table of contents button to enter the slide with the video demo
When I enter the slide, I can click the play button on the video skin and the video demo plays through successfully.
At the end, I can select the rewind button and it rewinds and the playhead automatically moves forward, however the video itself does not play.
If I click the play button once, the video starts playing but the playhead stops.
In order to get it to play and have the playhead progress through, I have to click the play button twice.

Just wondered if anyone else has had this problem and whether there is a workaround?

Appreciate any advice.

Changing the location of the play button

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 16 Sep 2013 03:26:24 GMT

Hi everyone,

Under preferences (under Start and End), I chose an image to be used as the title page. When testing though, it automatically inserts a play button located directly in the centre of the screen. I'm assuming that the position of the button is controlled via css however I can't find the exact css rule so that I can change the position to be further to the left instead of centred.

I wondered if anyone could point this out to me?

Thanks in advance.

Video progress needs to reflect video on slide, not slide itself

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 13 Sep 2013 10:03:53 GMT

Hi everyone,

I've recorded 2 video demos in Captivate 7. After recording the demos and saving them as mp4 files, I placed each of them on 2 different slides within a Captivate project. I made sure that the project had a table of contents and that the progress bar was included on the video skin. I published the project to the swf and html 5 formats and when I viewed it in a browser, I was able to click on the first link in the table of contents which took me to that slide and then that video started playing.

The problem is that the progress bar plays for 3 seconds which is the length of the slide, whereas I need the progress bar to reflect the length of the video on that slide. So when someone clicks each of the slides, the progress bar will always represent the length of the current video. I plan to use the captivate progject to store a number of video demos.

Is that possible to do and if so, can someone outline the process to get this working?

Appreciate any help.

animated circles

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 06 Sep 2013 11:53:00 GMT

Hi everyone,

I've just created a video demo in Captivate 7. When previewing the video, I noticed that I was using the mouse to kind of circle certain areas in order to heighten the focus. Since this isn't that effective, I wondered if it was possible to add an animated circle that would serve the same purpose, ie. where ever I'm circling with my mouse, an animated circle would appear instead.

I'm just learning the program so I'm not really sure if this is possible but would appreciate any advice.

Thanks in advance.

Automatically colour objects a random shade of grey

Hi everyone,

I have about 100 circles of different sizes in my illustrator file. Currently they're all coloured black but I need each of the circles to be coloured a random shade of grey. Obviously I could manually click on each circle object and colour it a different shade but I wondered if there was an automatic way of doing this?
