Captivate

Hi there,I'm seeing in the past there was a "print screen" widget but I'm not seeing that as an option in Captivate 2019.  Are there any solutions for a simple print screen button to add to a slide?   Thanks,Dale

I work with Captivate 2017 and have created a quiz there. Some question slides contain a cloze.The number of attempts per question is 3, the answers are selected via a drop-down menu. The project is output in HTML5. If somebody edits the question and selects a gap incorrectly, he can try again. This also works at first.Now the problem: When selecting an answer option again, the drop-down menu is optically overlaid by the previous one. It also seems to be not due to the used browser.The error does not affect the function but is purely optical.Maybe the attached picture helps to clarify my problem.Does anyone have an idea? 🙂

Does anyone have any issues using Captivate 2019 Assets? Specifically the project templates or slides? They seem to corrupt often, even when I am saving to my C drive. Once I publish it, they seem to corrupt. Are the slides buggy? It drives me absolutely nuts! 

Hi, We are having an issue where imported videos into Captivate that are paused (using the inbuilt video toolbar) then just continue on automatically after a few minutes. There doesn't seem to be any setting that adjust this.  Is this built in behaviour or can it be paused for as long as the user wants it paused, rather than just starting again by itself? Thanks in advance!

We observed an effect that in the generated html5-output the resources are not reset after a 360 ° video, but seem to continue to occupy some of the GPU and CPU resources and, depending on the computer, the second or third video no longer plays properly. If we separate the projects - i.e. only one video at one Captivate project - and call them up one after the other, this effect is gone.Did someone already encountered something similar and found a solution to keep several 360° Videos in ONE Project?Perhaps this is a more general phenomenon that has little or nothing to do with Captivate. So all helpful hints are welcome ...

I'm able to pull a name and student ID from our LMS but can I pull an employee ID?

I am new to Captivate.  I need to develop training using text-to-speech in English and in French (Canadian).  There is only Chloe's voice in French.  I've added the Microsoft Francais (Canada) Language pack in my settings.  But even though I have rebooted the computer and restarted Captivate, I don't have access to Microsoft Claude and Caroline's voices in Captivate.  What else fo I need to do to be able to view them in the droplist of voices available together with the 7 default Captivate voice and microsoft Zira^

Hi There, I have enabled (Replay and Play/Pause) buttons as displayed for rest of project and placed objects on top. When I don't need these buttons from Knowledge Check slides, I have added advanced action to hide both of buttons on entering the slide. But this is not at all hiding these buttons. Can someone help?

In der Antwort von Adobe auf eine Anfrage gemäß Art 15 DSGVO finde ich u.a. Angaben zu einer „Machine ID“.Was ist das?Eine Recherche im Netz hat bisher nichts gebracht. Im Adobe-Support-Chat kann man es angeblich nicht beantworten. Auf eine Anfrage bei Adobe per Formmailer habe ich bisher keine Antwort bekommen.

Hello Everyone! I am Caleb and I am using Captivate to create fun and intense Online Escape Rooms for Teambuilding!  I came across a simple but weird problem as I was making text entry box passcodes for the Escape Room game and I am encountering this problem with some of the Success and Failure Captions. Where they sometimes do not disappear at all, even when I choose to hide them both in output and in the slide itself. These success/failure captions are supposed to only show after the player has tried to enter a password in the text entry box and click enter. However, it consistently shows itself, even if there is no interaction with the entry box nor input of any answers at all. Images are attached to help understand! Please do help me as it is the final thing stopping me from publishing 😞 Thank you so much in advance!   Would you happen to know the fix for this? (Below are attached pictures!)

One Drive keeps offering to rename my Captivate files because they have 'invalid names'.  This *appears* to be because they have a space in front of them. Trouble is of course that once they're renamed Captivate doesn't recognise them any more. (I'm new to Captivate, I have a stand alone copy on my Wondows 10 PC and that backs up automatically to OneDrive)

I am using Adobe Captivate 11.5.4.613 on Mac OS 10.5.1 and it was working OK but suddently after making minor changes to the publishing settings, I am unable to a) preview in the browser and b) publish anything that works. I either get a spinning ball in the browser window or I get the -50 error 'The application can't be opened.' I am trying to preview/publish in HTML5.  I have tried:resetting the default publish settings but it doesn't change anything.restarting the software.restarting the computer.Chrome, Safari, and Brave browsers.  I have no idea what to do next. I've spent many hours and days on this project (30 pages worth) and I'm so frustrated! Help?

This is working well.Now I want to create a variable inside my subject heading like mail@address.com?Feedback + variableI think I need to develop a JavaScript to do this. Can anybody help me. I have no idea from JavaScript.Thank You!

I develop web-based training.  I use Captivate to produce question slides within a succession of .htm pages created in Dreamweaver.  Long story short, I inhereted old .cp files and had to upgrade to .cptx.  When reviewing the course it goes through one of the quizzes and stops.  How do I make sure the next .htm page in succession is accessed after each quiz?

Is there any way using Captivate 7 to tell a SCORM 1.2  or SCORM 20004 course to send the bookmark data to the LMS on every slide in the course until you get to the quiz, and then only send the resume information at the end of the quiz, so that the quiz does not get bogged down with network traffice?The problem that I am running into is that I have a course where the first 15 slides are informational and are not part of the quiz.  This is then followed by 25 Random quiz slides which they must get at least 70% correct to pass.  Slides 1 and 2 are text and images only.  Slides 3 through 12 use the Web Object Interface (the one that comes standard with Adobe Captivate 7).  These web object interfaces each are used to display videos.  Each video is between 3 and 10 minuts long.  All together it takes the students almost an hour to get past the video to slide 13.  Slide 13 does an AJAX call (using Javascript) back to our company servers so that we kno

I have some long Interactive videos and I would like my audience to be able to skip through them if they want but there are no playback controls like the Event videos. I know there are playback controls for the whole project but these aren't really usable for skipping through an Interactive vdieos (and it's confusing for users who aren't used to Captivate). I also know that I could add bookmarks to jump to certain points in the video but that doesn't quite work for what I want. 

Hi!There is an error in Adobe Captivate 6 regarding the backup.Help please  

The check boxes in my Captivate quiz only show partially in Adobe Prime. I stretched the outer box of containing all of the fields, as well as adjusting the align and increase/decrease indent settings. I'm not seeing where to add space after the check boxes. The aspect ratio was modifed so content could fit properly in Prime (836W x 627H).  I've included screenshots from both Captivate and Prime

Hello I am trying to make a drag and drop interaction so when the user places the correct drag source over the correct drag target it triggers an effect. I have created a correct state for the drag target with an effect but when I drop the correct drag source over the drag target it is not triggering the effect that I have applied to the correct state. I have three drag sources and targets on the slide and I would like the  effect to take effect as soon as the correct drop source is placed on the correct drop target.  Thank you

I logged into Captivate this morning and found it looking like this:  Nothing is docked where it is supposed to be and the row of icons across the top is missing.  When I drag the filmstrip window to the left, I do not get a shaded area for me to drop it to dock.  I can open the timeline and properties, but they appear in tiny boxes that also do not let me dock them.  I have custom workspaces checked in preferences (and have rebooted) and resetting to my saved workspace that should have everything nicely docked for me does nothing. How do I fix this? Thank you.

Our organization is wrapping up conversion of assets to HTML5 and have a handful using the .cp file extension from some years ago. We use Captivate 2019 now. From what I understand, we should be able to re-save those in Captivate 6 as .cptx. I should have a product key for Captivate 6 but don't see a download link anywhere. Any way to get this? Thanks!

Hello. I am trying to publish a video demo, but I am getting this:  I am running Captivate 2019 on a MacBookPro Retina - Catalina 10.15.6 Is there a way to fix this? Thanks in advance.
