Any resolution for this? I am faced with the same problem. I have a video embedded in a PDF, however some users I send it to get the following error. (See attached image). Others have to go through a bunch of steps for "trusting content."  If the user double-click our PDF and it opens in a browswer it doesn't work at all either. Please help.  ... View more

I agree it is weird to test in EXE, which is completely different from HTML5.  Our problem is we do not have a test webserver either. I'm trying to find a way to publish this so that I can send (via email) the file to the SME to test it.  ... View more

I found on a forum from earlier in 2018 an advanced action that works. You create a variable, and then advanced action created on Lost Focus. That works rreally well. I was just hoping to find a reason to convince the company to upgrade from Captivate 8 to 2019. ... View more

Yes you are correct. To the user they think they are staying on the same page, but Tab is 1) validating their information and providing feedback if it is incorrect (no feedback if successful) and 2) moving them to the next field which is a separate slide in captivate.  ... View more

The program is like an on line form. Imagine you have data to fill in and to get from one field to The next, you hit Tab. Although you can click in the box is the next field, sometimes that does not trigger a background event where said items in the field populate another integrated system. However if you always hit Tab, it triggers the event to populate. Once the form is filled out properly, then the user has to forward for approvals. The Approve button takes you to another page to send the form. No submit buttins. Also the fields have to have certain characters. So we do have it validate based in the scenario given to them. I found multiple forums on this issue on this site where others users had the same issue. It only happens when publishing ad HTML5. With swf it’s fine. ... View more

Hi Rod, Yes I have with Cap 8 And 9 and when publishing as HTML5 only, it the Tab goes to URL and all accessibility items first before coming back to TEB. ... View more

Lilybiri. I know you have been a huge resource in helping out with so many things "Captivate" related.  Do you know if they Adobe fixed the TEB with TAB to take to next slide for HTML5 only in Captivate 10? I've tried it in Captivate 8 and 9 to no avail.  I know they have offered the work around below, but I was hoping to see if Adobe fixed it in a later version. Thank you very much. ... View more

Question:  I saw you had to use this workaround for Captivate 8.  Do you know if they fixed this "bug" for Captivate 9 or higher?  I need to publish as HTML5 only and our simulations need TEB with validated response, and then the TAB should take them to next slide.  If Captivate 9 or higher fixes this issue, then I'm all for creating a strong reason to upgrade. Otherwise I would have to use the workaround above, and have to use it for over 30 slides.  Our simulations follow our software which "tabs" to move to the next entry field. Thank you. ... View more

Hello- Has there every been a fix to this issue?  I am developing in Captivate 8 and Captivate 9 and have simulations with TEB and TAB as shortcut key. I am required to publish as HTML5 no SWF for our LMS.  Seamless Tabbing isn't an option when just publishing as HTML5.  And I am required to have Accessibility working on the file.  I have no advanced actions on the slides. It's a simple text entry box, the user types in a number and hits "TAB" to go to the next field which should take them to the next slide. Thank you, Christine ... View more

Hello, I'm not using a Pool Randomizer, I simply have 5 quiz questions, each of them on Shuffle in the Quiz Property Settings.  If the user fails, they have a retake Quiz option.  My expectation would be that each time, within that session, they have to retake quiz (and they have unlimited tries to pass), the answers would be shuffled. HOWEVER, the answers are not shuffling.  They shuffle upon loading the CBT compared to the source file, but no matter how often the user hit retake, none of the answer are being shuffled repeatedly every time the user hits the question. I'm testing in trial SCORM CLOUD as well as just running the SWF from my desktop. Can you help explain why each time the user gets the question, it doesn't shuffle the answers every time? Thank you, Christine ... View more

Hello, I'm new to Captivate 8 as of this week. Previously we were on Captivate 6. I created and advanced action that executed a javascript that says setUserInfo;() Then the following slide I have created and use a variable called User_name. I insert it as $$User_name$$ Outside the project I have a JS file that grabs the UserInfo from the SharePoint site, and puts into a string called User_name. }); function setUserInfo() {     $.CapHelper.SetVariable("User_name", _strUsername); } So with Captivate 6, the code above grabs the name from SharePoint, converts to string called User_name and then gets placed into the spot where the variable is located. None of these functions work for me in Captivate 8 and I am totally unfamiliar with the new Common JS Interface. Having the same type of problem with following code (in same JS file as User_name)  This one asks for the Captivate Points Scored, Total Points, Total Questions per project, Correct Answers, and Unanswered to be passed along and it gets send to a file that then emails me from SharePoint the information.  My problem is that this code is good and clear at sending me if the user Passed or Failed (See Status:) but I'm getting nothing (a zero) in the other fields. },                GetResult: function (objCap, strID, strUser, strEmail, objCBT) {             var objItem = {};             var strDate = this.GetDate();             var objItem = $.extend({}, $.Results.Objs.Result, {                     Status: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpQuizInfoPassFail", objCap) ? "passed" : "failed",                     RawScore: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpQuizInfoPointsscored", objCap),                     MaxScore: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpQuizInfoTotalQuizPoints", objCap),                     MinScore: 0,                     ResultDate: strDate + " " + $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpInfoCurrentTime", objCap),                     Username: strUser,                     Email: strEmail,                     Comment: _strComment,                     TotalQuestions: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpQuizInfoTotalQuestionsPerProject", objCap),                     TotalCorrectAnswers: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpQuizInfoTotalCorrectAnswers", objCap),                     TotalUnansweredQuestions: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpQuizInfoTotalUnansweredQuestions", objCap),                     CBT: objCBT                 });             return objItem; Any help would be great. Thanks for your time and look at this. Christine ... View more

Hi Lilybiri- You have me confused as to what a tracking text container is? I think my images confused you so I have more screen shots. The Advanced Actions are placed on the rollover part itself.   When item above have been rolled over, smart object with text appears on right. The Advanced Actions are applied to each Rollover on the left side and here is example (I have on of these for each rollover) For the above example Staffing to Crewed, when rolloved over the Advanced Action S2C is placed and look like below: The items to "show" listed are invisible as they are a next button image, a next button click box with "Go To Next Slide" a next button rollover so when user rolls over the image it "toggles" from solid to gradient, and text caption with direction to "click next to continue. I'm still unsure what you mean by test box container? ... View more

Hello. I "think" I am understanding, and yet clearly I am doing something wrong because it is not working. I have 4 defined variable (,var_A2H, var_T2U, var_S2C, var_M2R) set to 0. On my RollOver Slidelet Properties Panel for the first slidelet I have: On Click = No Action Shortcut = (none) On Rollover = Execute Advanced Action called "A2H" Within the Advanced Action there are two "tabs" at the top. One labeled Always and it says: If 1 is equal to 1 Action Assign var_A2H with 1 The second "tab" labeled "Checkit" in the same advanced actions states: If var_A2H is equal to 1 If var_T2U is equal to 1 If var_S2C is equal to 1 If Var_M2R is equal to 1 Action Show (and lists my image, clickbox, rollover and text caption) I repeat this for each variable except the first one changes to assign the next variable with a 1 etc.... My gut is telling me that I am applying this conditional action on the wrong item. Or I am wondering when the user rolls off the first RO Slidelet, how is that triggered variable retained for the next one they rollover?  I'm sure its something simple I am missing, but my eyes are crossing.  Thanks for the direction. ...

Hi NickGG, Curious what kind of LMS you have? We have Scorm 1.2 (Meridian). I have created CBT much like yours with hidden images that when the user completes they "show" through Advanced Actions etc... My client has requested that the user should be able to log in from ANY computer so the widget would not help me as it stores it as a cookie on the user computer.  But it seems your LMS allows it to store on the LMS so that no matter where the user logs in from, the items they have completed or triggered are stored.  Am I correct in understanding that is what your LMS is doing? If so, I'm so excited I can't stand it! Thank you! ... View more
