ActionScript 2.0 :: Captivate Accessible In Flash
Jul 24, 2009
I've got Captivate movies dynamically loading into a Flash movie. The problem is, the tab index which works so well when the Captivate movies are in stand-alone mode falls apart when loading the Captivate movie into a Flash shell. I've tried tabEnabled=false and tabChildren=true for the movie clip that contains the Captivate movie, but with no results. Does anyone know how to get the focus manager to tab to objects in a Captviate movie when that movie is running in a Flash shell?

I have a custom build swf player, which has basic functions of play, pause, quit etc. It plays swf created with flash. I created a demo using captivate cs5, then exported it to flash. The captivate swf does not works with my swf player, it loads and starts playing but play and pause button does not work at all with it.[code]...

i'm using captivate 5 to create an elearning project, due to captivates limited animation abilities i created a menu bar in flash and imported it into captivate as an swf. The menu bar has a glossary listing that whne clicked calls upon another swf which is a glossary.
The problem is that the glossary swf doesnt pop up when the glossary listing is clicked inside of captivate. The menu bar works perfectly outside of captivate. the glossary is already made in AS3. So my question is can you call a nested swf within captivate?

I wonder whether anyone knows of a solution to this: I want to embed a Captivate 4 quiz in a flash CS4 file and retrieve the score from the Captivate SWF so that I can use it in my flash file (AS3)- does anyone know a way of doing this (?eg. shared objects?). Communication between Flash and CP seems to be a lot more problematic than I anticipated.

I don't get it Why is it so difficult to pass a variable from Captivate 5 to AS3/Flash CS5. I have a variable (gpDone = 1) in Captivate 5 (it's a guided practice) on the last frame which will indicate that the learner has completed the guided practice file. Now I want to pass that variable back to Flash/AS3 so I can evaluate whether I should show the Continue button so they can continue. They have to complete the guided practice before they can continue. If it is equal to 1, the Continue button will display. If it is not equal to 1, the Continue button will not display, but a message will display telling them they have to complete the guided practice in order to continue in the course.

I've developed a menu in AS3 with about 10 buttons. Each buttong will load an swf or a swf created in Captivate. I want the swf to load ontop of the menu, then close when it's done playing. I can get this to work fine with swfs created in Flash, but not captivate 5. The captivate file will open and play, but it won't close.I tried adding the script at the bottom to an swf and importing that into the last slide of captivate with no luck.This doesn't seem like it should be so tricky.Here is some of the AS3. I didn't bring the code in for all the buttons.
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader;
introduction_to_gcssj_btn.addEventListener(MouseEv ent.CLICK, introductionClicked);
portal_features_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CL ICK, portalFeaturesClicked);
[code].....

Basically I need to pause a Captivate movie (CP3) that is playing within a flash movie (CS4, AS3).
I have made a full motion recording with Captivate which I have imported into a flash movie. The flash movie is organised as a series of movieclips that play from the main timeline. My CP demo forms part of one of these movieclips (there are flash objects playing "on top" of it in different layers). I have a play/pause button on the main timeline that works to pause all of my movieclips EXCEPT for my captivate demo. This continues playing, while the movie clip is forms part of pauses, throwing everything out of sync.
how I can pause CP portion? My actionscript skills are minimal and I'm not even sure what object(s) to target.

I'm having a problem with audio of Captivate demos created in Captivate 4 loaded into a Loader component using Flash 8 and AS2. Problem is if someone is viewing a Captivate demo and hits the Audio On/Off button on the playbar to turn the audio off and then returns to the menu, the next Captivate demo loaded has no audio until the user click the audio Off/On button a couple of times. Even though when loaded, the playbar audio is shown as on.
I've already tried cpCmndMute and cpCmndVolume to no avail. Is there another audioOn variable I'm missing?[url]...

I'm being asked if some resources I created can be made accessible. Currently each resource is the exact same launch.swf, but each is pulling from a different xml file. I'm so proud of myself! But now it looks like you can't dynamically generate accessilbe resources. I'm being asked for the alt.text equivalent of various text boxes, while the actual content of each box depends on multiple factors.

I am working on a browser project for the blind in my university. For swf files, I am trying to access the contents of an SWF and parse so that screen readers can use it to read it aloud. I was successfully able to extract static text using swfutils.jar from inside the Flex SDK. But I was wondering if the following i spossible : Given a flash webform, I should be able to move the through the fields using 'Tab' and then read out the buttons ( by extracting associated text), and read it aloud so that the user can click the required button.. I hope I am clear with my problem description..

I have just finished a flash movie for a client which is an interactive payslip to explain all the different sections. They have got back to me and said it's great but I need to make this accessible for screen readers etc, and sent me the following link: [URL]. I have read through it all and I am slightly confused as to now how to make my complete movie accessible. Can I just add in the text links on the Accessible panel for the movie clips or will I have to create a whole separate column of hidden content for people to tab through?

I have made a very simple swf in which I have a MovieClip which I have rotated on the stage. When I try to access this rotationX and rotationY properties of this clip using the constructor of the class assigned to this MovieClip they are coming back as 0 even though they shouldn't be. If I put an on rollover event of the MovieClip and trace out these properties here I get the correct values.
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[Code].....
I also get the correct values when I read the values from the stage timeline.
trace ("TEST "+testMC.rotationX+" "+testMC.rotationY); //returns correct value
Is there a specific event I need to be waiting for which will tell me when the 3d properties are available via ActionScript?

In Flash Professional, I have a MovieClip and that clip has children. Let's say the parent clip is a night sky and the children are different instances of a star MovieClip that animates in a loop. This whole thing compiles down to a NightSky.swc which I use in Flash Builder as part of a larger project.
In Flash Pro, I position the child clips with a high level of precision. From there, I want to assign properties to these "stars." Say, I want to assign "galaxyId" and "isRedGiant" but (and this is key) I want to edit those properties in Flash Professional and have those value accessible in Flex.[code]...

It appears that the flash variables are not accessible in Chrome when Javascript is turned off. Having said that, Youtube seem to work fine, when I test other sites like www.nhs.uk it does not seem to work, nor does mine.
I am using the most recent version of Chrome on Windows. Is there anything special that I need to target Chrome, how do I resolve this issue ?

I'm trying to build a class that can handle a menu or other grid of buttons being keyboard accessible (navigate with arrowkeys, select with another key, here 'b'). So far I have the keyboard part working, but you have to click one of the buttons to 'activate' it, and I am unsure of the logic needed to do the mouse events. I have added mouse events but don't see a simple way of integrating them with the keyboard system. Code is here, and both the class and a test .fla are attached.
Basically, the list of instances are passed by the frame into the constructor in an array. The selector class manages the index in the array of the currently selected button. The frame adds a key event listener, and these keys are picked up by the class to change the selected button and call the roll out and roll over methods to change the states (for this test just adjusting scale to 1.4, but in future, causing them to run a function or similar).
What I would ideally like, ideally, is for the keyboard and mouse to work in sync, as in rolling over with the mouse will update the currentButton index... If not, just some explanation as to why one of the buttons in the array must be clicked first before I can start using the keyboard would be good.

i placed a movieclip inside a movieclip A_Mc ( representing ClassA) . Now if i place another movieclip ( without naming, and making sure that automatic instance naming is Off via the flash IDE ), everything runs fine. But when i provide an instance name say b_Mc , then it MUST be able to be publically accessible. What is the logic behind this setup. Why while designing i cannot make a sub-movieclip which is private and inaccessible to others?

In a Captivate 5 file, I imported a Flash AS3 file. I added the Flash file to the first Captivate slide and set the swf properties to display for the entire project. Essentially the Flash file is a skin/interface for the Captivate file. Everything is working fine, but the TOC is on top of the skin.
The scenario worked fine with Cativate 4 and AS2. The Flash skin has a TOC button. When the button is clicked, the TOC opens beneath the skin.
How can I position the TOC in the display list?

I need to be able to dynamically position a component generated in Captivate 4 via ActionScript that in child SWF that is imported into the Captivate project. The problem is that I don't know how to reference the objects in the parent movie. I can set a label on the object and reference the parent itself with:
MovieClip(this.parent)
but this doesn't seem to work:
MovieClip(this.parent).label.y
And I suspect that it is because some how Captivate subclasses the objects but I'm having trouble finding out how the hierarchy is structured.

I have created a .swf using Captivate 4. When I try to load the swf into a Flash project - (AS2) I get the following output:
Branching::script:;;
deepak branching : scripteval:[object Object];
I rewrote the Flash using components and the same thing happens. So, I'm thinking it has something to do with how Captivate makes the .swf.

I have a SWF (SWF A) that I'm loading into a movieclip (Movieclip C)which is part of another SWF (SWF B). Basically, SWF B functions as a player, with play and pause controls. These controls control Movieclip C where the external SWF A is loaded into.Normally, I have had no problem with this and it always works. At run time, when you click the pause button on SWF B, a stop() command is issued to Movieclip C, which stops the play of
the external movieclip (SWF A) loaded into it.However, I did a screen capture with Captivate and published it as a SWF. I loaded this SWF (SWF A) into Movieclip C in SWF B at run time. However, clicking the controls on SWF I created has NO EFFECT on the SWF I created in Captivate. It just keeps playing.I guess all SWFs are NOT created equal. How can I make this work?

I have read a lot of threads on this, and I am trying to create a widget that will allow the button to toggle between Play/Pause pictures and play and pause the captivate as necessary.Right now my script reads as below: The button will toggle bwteen play and pause pictures. But will not pick up the .rdcmndPause=1; .rdcmndResume=1.
this.Pause.visible = true;
this.play1.visible = false;

have a flash 'menu' swf that on the click of a button loads into a loader a flash 'controller' swf. This swf in turn loads into a loader a 'captivate 5' swf. All published to fp10.exit the captivate movie the user can click on the menu button (which resides on an area of the 'menu' swf below it), and I have coded to UnloadAndStop and StopAllSounds of the 'controller' swf loader.his works, everything goes, the loader 'unloads' and it does stop the sound of the current captivate slide, but then audio from the captivate movie will fire up again from the next slide and continue to play over the menu

These SWFs have audio in them. But when I progress through these slides (by clicking a next button), the sound from the captivate made slides overlaps (keeps playing). SoundMixer.stopAll does not seem to work for captivate SWFs
