Thanks for keeping it short and too the point. Too many other people (explaining the same process) waffle on and drag it out.

Very useful video, thank you, I was going crazy trying to figure out how to do that! And the burps were as unexpected as funny XD

This is so awesome. I am running into an issue where the two pieces that are supposed to pop up - a text box with close button" don't show up in the list of visible buttons. What am i doing wrong?

if we export this as swf, would it do the same thing? And can I also give links to the pop up to go to other destinations on the brochure?

When I click my created main button my popup appears behind the button. I tried creating the 3 buttons in all different orders but i cant fix it! any ideas how to keep the stack in order after export.

Just posted a new short tutorial video, that answers a question that landed in my email box recently. How to create a popup box in an Adobe PDF, using Adobe InDesign. Creating a popup window in a PDF

In hopes of anyone seeing this who knows what they're doing unlike me:

Expected: A click on an image will show a larger version of it on a transparent, dark background.

What actually happens: The background is shown in the PDF from the get-go and behind the original, small image. The large image does not even exist. Clicking only removes and displays the background.

I have no clue what I'm doing wrong. Using ID CS3

Hi Cari, do yo know a way of doing something similar in Acrobat Pro?

[claremaker]

Can the buttons be grouped objects or do they have to be images?

hi, when I export as interactive pdf the large window always appears, but when I export as swf it works fine, am I doing something wrong? thanks
