PowerPoint has a function named "Record narration". This records delays between user's button presses and then uses it to show automated slideshow, where animations, triggered to mouse-click, are shown according to those button clicks.
So, I want programmatically add this narrations. But in Microsoft::Office::Interop::PowerPoint I didn't find any useful data. How can I access these narrations programmatically?
Timings are recorded in a slide-level tag called TIMING
The tag value might be something like |7|5.8|5.6
Meaning, roughly, Start, wait 7 seconds, move to next click, wait 5.8 seconds ... and so on.
To see e.g. the TIMING tag contents for slide 1, this:
Msgbox ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Tags("TIMING")

Good evening folks,
I'm building a simple application (A) that sends Strings to a textbox of another application (B). I was able to this step, but afterwards I'd like to automatically press a button placed just under the textbox. The problem is that I can't get the Handle of the Button; using "Window Detective"(similiar to Spy++), I see only the textboxes (called "TEdit", see the attachments) and no Buttons!. I'd like to add also that there's no only a Button but 3!! So, how could I press a specific Button? Is there another chance to get the Handle?

Based on the class name TEdit that's a VCL application probably coded in Delphi. The buttons are likely TSpeedButton and non-windowed. You won't be able to send them messages and they are not automatable.
Faced with this your best hope of success is to fake input. Fake the mouse click at the appropriate location on the form. It's not pretty but there's little option.
I currently have a process that does the following:
Read a remote file and parse complex data;
Dynamically create a bitmap image based on the data;
Display the bitmap in an Image control in an Updatepanel.
Wait 15 seconds, then repeat the whole process.
I have set myScriptManager.RegisterAsyncPostBackControl(myTimer), and run the whole process (all three steps in sequence) on myTimer_Tick, and I have set the timer's Interval to 15 seconds, which is ideal for my purposes. However, step 1 above could take as long as a minute (in very rare cases), and I'm not entirely sure what will happen in that case? What will happen if the myTimer_Tick fires after 15 seconds and start it all again, when the previous run hasn't completed?
Ideally I'd like to update the UpdatePanel programmatically when the last line of code for Steps 1 to 3 have been finished, and then use Thread.Sleep to pause for 14 seconds before repeating, as it usually takes about 1 second to do steps1-3. However, I have no idea how to make the UpdatePanel update without linking it to a control. Why can't I just say myUpdatePanel.Upate() at the end of any chunk of code?
I want to display an intro view (tutorial) on my monotouch app that when the user clicks on a button will take them to the main storyboard, which contains a UITabController.
I'm new to monotouch and can't work out how to do this. I'm adding an extra view that's been created to the tab bar controller in the AppDelegate.FinishedLaunching, but this always adds the button to the tab bar.
When the user has clicked the button once I don't want to show the intro page ever again, it's a one time deal (I'll save some value to disk to work this out), so I don't want to just add it to the tab controller.
Incidentally if anyone can show me where monotouch decides that it's going to start with the storyboard please let me know. The only thing I've found is the little start arrow that you drag around in XCode, but what if I have two storyboards and I want to load one based on the user being logged in or something.
You need to create simple entry ViewController with the button (Controller1). The next controller in storyboard will be the tabcontroller (TabController).
Thus you will always has the first entry screen in your application.
If you don't want to show it later than make transition from Controller1 to TabController before it is loaded. For example, override the ViewWillAppear method.
The second approach. Use this code to launch whatever you want view above all your controllers at any time:
UIViewController root= UIApplication.SharedApplication.KeyWindow.RootViewController
UIView myCustomView=new MyCustomView();
root.Add(myCustomView);
//call myCustomView.RemoveFromSuperview() and it will be dismissed
I am trying to make a WPF program in VS express C# I have multiple pages/windows.
I have my main page with a nice picture and a button that says 'Start'.
I want this start button to connect to my contents page/window its called 'modules'.
For simplicity (haha) I am also using blend. I get the point of setting the on click event handler in blend then swapping over to VS. but what do I write in the gap to actually get the button to go to the module window/page. I have been reading up in my spare time and still cannot find a simple answer for an absolute beginner. I can find many samples on how to get a button to display " Hi WPF" or whatever using a text box but thats obvisously not what I want.
i want to click the button and the start page/window to change to the 'module' window/page in the exact same way as blend sketch flow changes pages, in sketch flow you can just make the button navigate to the page you want. and that's all i want to do here page1> to > page2 'module'
One feature of our Word add-in shows two document windows side-by-side. The user can double-click a paragraph in the left-hand document to scroll an associated paragraph in the right-hand document into view. When we do this, we want to re-enable Synchronous Scrolling if it was enabled before the double-click. We're doing something like this:
private void LineUpParagraphs()
{
// Unlock the views so we can scroll them independently.
bool wasSyncEnabled = this.originalDocument.Document.Windows.SyncScrollingSideBySide;
this.originalDocument.Document.Windows.SyncScrollingSideBySide = false;
// Scroll corresponding original paragraph into view.
this.originalDocument.Document.Windows[1].ScrollIntoView(
this.CurrentOriginalParagraph.Range);
// Re-enable synchronous scrolling if it was enabled before.
if (wasSyncEnabled)
{
this.originalDocument.Document.Windows.SyncScrollingSideBySide = true;
}
}
After doing this, the desired range is in view in the original (right-hand for our app) document, but as soon as you scroll either window, the right-hand window jumps back to its original position.
Things we've tried that didn't work:
Set the SyncScrollingSideBySide property on all of the Application windows rather than just one of the two compare documents.
Toggle the property an additional time.
We've resorted to SendKeys to simulate a click on the Synchronous Scrolling button. (If you don't re-enable the sync programatically, then click the button yourself, the right-hand document doesn't jump back to its original position when you scroll). This isn't really an acceptable solution, though--it is inconsistent for example depending on whether our add-in's tab is active. Sometimes it works, sometimes it toggles the sync scrolling an additional time which will annoy the customer. Is there a better way?
Note: The issue occurs when the left-hand document is longer than the right-hand document (the one being scrolled).
