Hello Captivate Community! I need some assistance here. I have the built in TOC controlled by a custom button. When it's clicked on, it will pause the slide and the TOC will open up. The play/pause button will change to a pause state as well. This is perfect. When skipping to another section, the TOC will hide automatically with the Hide_TOC AA that I created, the play/pause button will switch to a play state, and the slide will automatically play. Also Perfect. However, When the TOC is opened and everything, including the play/pause button switches to a pause state, if the current slide is clicked on again in the TOC (let's say by accident), the slide will start over but the play/pause button will remain in the pause state.  Any thoughts on an AA where if the TOC is opened and the current slide is clicked on again in the TOC (let's say by accident), how to get the play/pause button to change state again since the slide will reset and play automatically?  

Looking for help from you wonderful people.  I have a project I am working on where I have a scale effect and a motion path effect on the same object.  This is actually 2 objects grouped together.  Toward the end of the slide I have that grouped object move to the center of the screen and increase in size a little for emphasis.  Even though the scale effect is set to start 21 seconds into the slide and run for 1 second, it is starting to grow at the beginning of the slide.  All other effects are working properly.  Any thoughts?

Okay.  Having a weird issue I'm not sure if it's universal or fixable or what.  Have you guys experienced this?On my quiz slides, there's a little bit of a hitch between selecting the correct answer and progressing to the next slide.  You get the success caption "good job, hit next to continue."  The hitch is that it actually takes two clicks to progress to the next quiz slide.  The first click clears the success caption, the second click actually progresses the slide.  Is there a reason I'm having to click twice?  Is this a universal oddity?  Can I fix it so that the success caption clears and the slide progresses with just one click? Thanks in advance,Eric

Good Morning everyone,I'm trying to create an action based on the status of an object: for example "IF the status of this object is A, then do this action". Do anyone know how (and if) is it possible to do this? I'm trying with conditional actions, but I don't know how to indicate the object status in the IF panel.Thank you for the help

When I create a question slides and the student I have answered them. When he tries to repeat the subject again, he does not let him ask the true false questions again, since they are answered.Even if I restart the page, it still gives the same problem.Is there a workaround from captivate to have the question slides reset every time I enter them?

I am a new Captivate 9 user and just recently created my first project. I'm trying to preview my project with the HTML5 in browser option but all I see is the spinning wheel of death. I'm assuming there is something wrong with my project but am unsure of what to look at to fix the issue. Anyone know why I would not be able to view my project in HTML5 browser and what could be the problem?

In Multiple choice questions, selected options should be displayed in result page. Please let me know the solution. I want to print the all selected option in the last page of result. Thank you,Srini.

I am working on a Captivate 2019 responsive project (created in breakout points) that was created in desktop view. I need to convert it to a multidevice veiw format, is the best way to do this with fluid boxes? Does that require that every item (smartshape/ photos/ text boxes) go into fluid boxes, or just a large box around the whole slide? If it is each item is there an easier way to mass add these on? Or another way to do this with the existing breakpoints rather than the fluid boxes? 

can audio be added to a roll over state in captivate adobe 2019? or is there a way to write some sort or advanced action for audio to be associated with a roll over state? 

Hello everyone, I have been working on a project in Captivate for about a week and have been stumped by a quiz behavior. I have the playbar showing throughout my project. I have set the quiz to allow infinite attempts and the questions themselves to allow 1 attempt. No matter what I try, if a user answers a quiz question and then goes back with the back button on the playbar, it resets the quiz question so that they can submit their answer again - whether right or wrong on the first attempt. What I would like it to do is show their first answer and only reset if they click the "retake" button on the review slide. When I research this it seems like this should be how it behaves. Since it is allowing users to go back and submit new answers, they could for example, go back and answer only the last question and then get a new score based on that one answer, on the results slide. Help!

Hi there,I have created a course with an assessment section with 10questions using the question pool.Max 3 attempts are allowed and after every 3 unsuccessful attempts user will be prompted to retake the entire course again. I would like randomize the questions / answers every time the user retakes the assessment. The issue here is, the questions are getting shuffled only when the entire page / session is refreshed. In other words when the user retakes the entire course from the start. They don't get shuffled during the 3 re-attempts.Can someone suggest / help on this please? Thanks a ton in advance!

So last issue here on my ELearning Curriculum. I watched Paul Wilson's video on showing next button on quiz revist and here's the AA with the user variable I created.  Under the First AA Tab labelled EnterActionsIncrement _question04 by 1 On the second AA Tab labelled check If-question04 is greater than 1 Then Show next_btn 10 Now I have this AA with user variables for the first three questions and this AA works just fine but it's not working for the last quz question and I have no idea why. Any Thoughts?

I don't know if I inadvertently changed something I shouldn't have, but whenever I try to record a software simulation demo (for an app that runs in a browser window), I only get a 3 second slide with the end result. It doesn't matter where I click/type or how long I actually record.Any ideas? I'm using Captivate 2017

Hi,I have a slaid where i want user to write a password (text entry box) and if the user clicks in different part of slide (just not in the entry box) the message will be shown "You have to enter the password before continuing ect." with the button "Try again". I made a click box on whole slaid (its at the back of everything).Click box conditional action:1. Hide - Password Entry box (i had to do it because it was visible through information box)2. Show - Box with informations and the "Try again button"Then I made conditional action for the button "Try again":1. Show - Password Entry box2. Hide - Box with informations and the "Try again button". And there's the problem, after clicking "Try again button" I can't enter the password because the Box with info and Try again button is showing first. The password entry box is at fornt of everything. I tried to disable the click box and then enable it but still it is at the front. I humbly ask for help 😞  If nothing

I'm trying to create a button that when clicked will perform multiple actions: play a short audio and jump to a slide. Is it possible to do this by assigning an action to the button Down State?

Hello fellow Captivate Developers! When I publish my course, the play page appears blank.  Is there a way to add a thumbnail so that the page they see is not empty.  I added an image to show.

If I wanted to create a multiple choice slide with 4 possible answers of which different ones could be true, how would I do that?Simple example with 1 wrong answer"If you could go wherever you want where would you go?"- To the moon- To New York- To North Korea- To (standin for wrong answer)Some people would choose all, some only choose 1. But choosing the last one would always be wrong.I think it can only be done with AA.What is a simplest way to do that?Put each answer as a variable and then tell CP what to look for?Wouldn´t even only the wrong one need to be defined as all the others would lead to "next slide" or a "You are correct" text box. So, CP only needs to check against that, right?This is all over the place, I am sorry.But I don´t want to start on it to find out there is a official function to do that...Thank you!

So I'm stuck on a button fuction. I've made a custom button that opens the built in TOC. I'm cool with this. But I'm trying to make it so whatever slide is playing, if there's a video or what not, pauses when the TOC is open then plays again the minute you close the TOC. Right now, I have an AA attached to my custom TOC button and it reads like this: PauseShow TOC(not much to show here.) This pauses the video when the TOC opens but I can't, for the life of me and I've been trying for a while here, figure out how to make the slides play again when the TOC closes. I know I'm missing something simple guys, LOL. Like it must be dumb simple, LOL. But so out of all the AA's I've made, this part was all that worked. Thoughts, comments? 

Hello, i would like to save the current slide the user is at in a variable. It looks like that:Assign: *UserVariable* with cpInfoCurrentSlide Then i want to write an advance action to jump back to this current slide. How can i do that? Thank you so much for ur help!

Hi,I am working on captivate 9. I have not recorded the video but inserted mouse objects later. Although the mouse action is pretty fast in most places, I find it very very slow at some places. I checked all the properties if I was missing something. It seems the same as the rest of the mouse pointers inserted. I need help in understanding this.

Hi guys, today I experienced a strange bug: when I apply a 'RotateTo' effect on an object, in the editor Captivate rotates it around it's center point. When I generate a HTML Preview, in the browser (Chrome) the object rotates around top left corner. (I don't know what happens after publishing, didn't try yet. 🙂 )Anybody with same experience? 🙂 Any advice how to fix it? Thanks, Nora

Please let me know if anyone knows the publish settings for uploading a project from Adobe Captivate to SumTotal's LXP? I appreciate any help you can provide.

I created a video project with 6 knowledge check overlay slides.  I have tried every preview and publish button. I am not able to view my project, all I get is a blank white screen. I do not have this issue with other projects that don't include video/ overlay. 

I have wasted 1 week. tried whatever Gaurav Sharma and Siddharth Gulati, both of them said that everything is okay after that and ALL OF IT WAS JUST A WASTE. Priya seems like she does not know anything . This organization must look in to this. I have wasted so much time trying to fix the glossary issue. NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE. and this is reallt annoying. IT HAS BEEN A WEEK and NO AVAILABLE FIX YET.
