I thought this whole workaround with inserting the amount of
silence equal to the length of the swf was going to go away with
Presenter 7. It hasn't. Simply checking the box in the Manage Flash
dialog doesn't force the slide to the length of the inserted movie.
Am I missing something here? I thought I read that the insert
silence workaround was going away... It looks to me like no new
functionality was added in terms of managing swfs. They just gave
it a menu item.
Presenter 7 respects the duration of swfs on 'controlled by
playbar' for Captivate swfs.
I guess the idea is that finding optimal time for normal swfs
is easy (number of frames/frame rate) while that doesn't hold true
for Captivate projects.
So then I must be missing something. Because even though I
insert the movie, and then go to Manage Flash and click the
checkbox, when the movie plays, it just treats the slide as a slide
with no audio and steamrolls right on through. No respect to the
inserted Flash at all. Am I missing a checkbox somewhere?
My apologies for creating the confusion.
Presenter 7 won't respect the time for simple swfs. It would
respect the time of Captivate swfs.
(You still need to check the 'controlled by plabar'
checkbox)
