Button Matrix in FM9

Hi. I followed the online help to create a button matrix in a fm doc. But unable to create one despite following the steps. Can someone help me do this? Thank you.

Button Matrix in FM9

First, a question. What is your output format? The button matrix feature works in FrameMaker, but is not exported to all online outputs (definitely not to PDF and the common HTML exports).

Was an error message of some sort displayed (and if so, what is the message text)?

Make sure that the text frame containing the matrix hypertext marker is above any other object (Graphics %26gt; Bring to Front)

If this may be of help, I can send you a generic working example.

We are using Coldfusion 8 with IIS 6 and SiteMinder Version 6.0 QMR05.?The problem is that SiteMinder and the Flex Gateway on Coldfusion do not work together.?One or the other will work, just not together.?Whichever one is at the top of the Wildcard Application Maps in IIS will work, the one below will not.?I found on another message board someone else with the same problem.?They said things worked fine with CF7 but when the upgraded to CF8, they had the same problem.

Has anyone else experienced this??Any ideas?

  • My slide text and images disappeared,...

    I copied and pasted 5 animation slides into an existing project. They play just fine.

    However, the slides after the animation slides do not display. The audio plays, but none of the images or text display.

    I checked the properties for the slides and they say to go to the next slide.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you.

    Activity Icons Disappeared

    The activity icons disappeared in my designer after I installed a custom component. All my activities are now displayed as the default icon, which is basically an open box with 4 small connected squares overlaying.

    Does anyone know how to get the icons back?

    It looks like they're back after a combination of reboot, restart and refresh.

    Footer issues with tabbed panels in IE7

    I'm having this weird issue with my footer in IE7 using the tabbed panels. For some reason, the footer is sitting up too high and I've tried troubleshooting but just can't seem to figure this out! It's only happening on this page:

    Any ideas/suggestions? It looks fine in IE8 FF %26amp; Safari...

    Footer issues with tabbed panels in IE7

    First, get rid of all of the %26lt;br /%26gt;'s and empty %26lt;div%26gt;'s above your header, then in your CSS for your footer replace float: left?with clear:both.

    Hope this helps,

    trying to sign document with certificate

    This seems harder than it should be, maybe I am missing something basic. Anyway, would appreciate any help.

    This is Acrobat 8, I am trying to sign a document using a certificate from cacert.

    I have imported the root certificate. Advanced%26gt;Manage Trusted Identities%26gt;Certificates then add contact, and import the root.crt file. That seems to work. There are now 2 certificates, Adobe Root and CA Cert Signing Authority. If I click the CA Cert and ''show certificate'' and trust, it is trusted to sign documents, and certify documents.

    Now, when I sign something I am offered the option to browse for a digital ID. I have exported my personal certificate from firefox, as a p12 file. Acrobat recognizes this, asks for my password correctly, and says ''the following will be used for signing or encryption'' and lists my certificate. When I click Finish it says ''you do not have any digital IDs suitable for signing this document.

    If I go to Advanced%26gt;Security Settings I can find the file, I have marked it for ''Use for signing''. When I look at the certificate though it is only trusted to ''Certify Documents'' not sign them, even though the issuer seems correct, and the root is trusted to sign.

    I have also tried inporting a p7b file into the manage trusted identities window, which seems to work successfully, but the certificate still isn't trusted for signing...

    Sorry for the long explanation!

    trying to sign document with certificate

    There are several reasons that Acrobat will not allow you to select a file for signing that is listed in the Security Settings console. It may have expired, or it may not have the correct Key Usage set, or it may have the Basic Constraint asserting CA. Any chance you could post the P7 file (reply to this post and use the attach file tool above the Post Message button) that contains the public key that corresponds to the digital ID you want to use to sign with. If I see it I might be able to give you the exact reason.

    Thanks!

    update:p7 files not allowed, zipped

    Hi Judson,

    The problem is the certificate does not contain the Key Usage extension. Acrobat / Reader will not allow you to sign unless the digital ID has the Key Usage extension and the extension contains either the Digital Signature and/or the non-Repudiation entry. You'll notice that the ''Extended Key Usage'' (which Microsoft call ''Enhanced Key Usage) extension is present, but not the standard (aka Version 1 fields) ''Key Usage'' extension.
