Using the Show/Hide Features in InDesign

[@MithillaRao]

Thank You so mush to help me out with your informative video when no other related video turned out to be useful...

[@guydwelly]

Really good tutorial. Recorded at a pace you can learn with. So many of these types of learning aids are performed at a breakneck speed and you have to keep rewinding. Many thanks!

Thank you so much for understandable explanation!!!

Great tut. Just what I've needed

Hello, when setting the show/hide feature, I got the function down correctly. What if you say you want to rehide the option without clicking another image (in the instance of your video Yau Lu). Yau Lu image is hidden but triggered until you click the thumbnail. How do you rehide it without clicking another image's thumbnail? The idea to go back to a blank home screen.

Good one. But, what if I want to send the interactive PDF doc to others, who might have no acrobat pro? Is there any chance to have all these interactions working on a simple opened PDF? Thanks.

[@tskony]

Users do not need Acrobat Pro for this functionality to work. Good luck!

[@giuseppesardone482]

@@tskony macbook pro users do so. I just found out that the Hide/Show button does not work properly with the "preview" way Apple use to commonly open PDF files. Do you know what to do in this case? Thanks.

[@SCOTTEDM]

@@giuseppesardone482 He mentioned that in the video. Your option is to open it in Acrobat Pro/Reader to obtain full functionally.

i cant seem to make a show and hide feature for a embedded video, do you know if there's any fix for that?

[@applerosas]

Hi!, Thank you for taking the time to teach such a useful lesson. I just have one question: How did you make the "active area" of each button a non square shape?. Thanks.

[@ketzalcoatl6734]

Hi there!! Convert the squares in triangles!! google it! =)

[@applerosas]

I've googled it a thousand times. Can't find anything on "Change active area on ID buttons".

[@applerosas]

Ketzal Coatl If you have ANY URL with those instructions, you'd make my life much more easy. Please.

[@ketzalcoatl6734]

You speak Spanish right!? Ask your question in your mother tongue maybe I can help you

[@tskony]

Leonardo, as Ketzal Coatl pointed out; all you need to do is change the frame to a triangle. You will note that when I hover the cursor over the triangles, the button is actually a rectangle, so I'm changing the shape of the picture frame versus the button. Here is how I did it: 1. Create a square/rectangle. 2. Use the Add Anchor Point Tool [nested in Pen Tool] to Add a point in the middle of rectangle on the top line. 3. Use the Delete Anchor Point Tool to delete the left and right corner points on the top line to leave you with a triangular shape.

hi! I am trying to do this, but i have a problem. When i test in indesign i can do everything, but when i export to a PDF it doesn`t work as i want. I don`t know why, do you have any idea of why???

[@JoseStudios]

You need to export as a Interactive PDF... :)

[@AmadeusFrazier]

Thank you! Nice and concise.

[@roms.1676]

with Ableton, soft One, Cubase and Logic and my idea about soft is why make tNice tutorialngs unlogic and difficult it it can be done easy. But

[@carlloos4340]

I must be doing something wrong! I tried making this on two different designs. None of them worked..And I followed your instructions to the letter on a big tv screen. There goes my sunday :(

[@cristianloza5472]

Did you save it as an interactive PDF?

[@Novaprod-jn4kq]
