Captivate

I'm totally lost on getting rid of the background of my pyramid widget, or even setting it to transparent.  I'd like to remove the white background area as well as the drop shadow of this object.There's an option to change that color, but nothing relating to removing it, making it transparent, or getting rid of the drop shadow.I'd also like to have the first element (#1 in the pyramid) to be open by default, but that's not as important for now. I'm using Captivate 6. Any ideas?

I'm in an academic environment and need to add a focus indicator to interactive elements for accessibility.  We're using Captivate 12.4.  Any suggestions appreciated.

I may be asking too much from the new Adobe Captivate (once again).  I am building an interactive eLearning module for English Language Learners.  It involves text that they read, a few knowledge checks, a final assessment, and there is a video that they need to watch (a full episode - 24 minutes in length).  I desire both the playskin to be accessible (the embedded play/pause, mute, window expand, and playbar for fast forward and rewind) and for closed captioning to be an option.  According to everyone, including Adobe Technical Support, event videos do not support closed captioning.  I need it to be an event video for the playback controls to be in the skin.  Has anyone figured out a work-around for this?  I tried to embed closed captioning within the MP4 file through Camtasia, to no avail.  I have also noticed that you can 'import' closed captions from the File menu.  Thought maybe I could do something with the original srt file, and

I have submitted a bug through the Submit bugs/Feature request link.    There was no messaging saying that they received it and no email confirming they got it.  It just simply redirected me back to the Forums home page.   Has anyone had a response or email from Adobe when submitting a bug??

In Adobe Captivate, how can we set the focus on a specific input field when there are multiple input fields on the same slide, and do so as soon as the project opens ? Thank you !

Hi,Is it possible to include an iframe with external content in the "all-new Captivate"? It seems that it's only allowing to embed YouTube and Vimeo videos but I need to embed other external content.Thanks!

Hello, I'm currently developing an e-learning course using Adobe Captivate 2019. As a beginner, I want to implement a feature where the "Next" button only appears when users revisit the slides. Additionally, I've used JavaScript to prevent users from dragging the slider on the progress bar. My module contains over 100 slides, and I am unsure how to add the "Next" button functionality specifically for revisiting slides, while also integrating it with the slider functionality. Should I use JavaScript, advanced actions, or shared actions for this? Can anyone help me with this?

Does anyone have an idea on how to work with Indian languages (Hindi, Marathi, etc.) in Adobe Captivate?

To work efficiently, I'm copying and pasting the blocks within a slide as well as between multiple slides. This saves me time from having to change the template/design and helps maintain a more streamlined look throughout the presentation. However, I keep encountering an error message and I'm not sure how to remedy it. I've already restarted Captivate twice, but the issue persists. Do you have any advice on how to resolve this?

Hi, I'm trying to create a video on Adobe Captivate. When I click publish I only have the option to publish as HTML5, I can't see the option to post as a video. I want to have an MP4. I can see the slides on the left hand side of the screen. Do you know why this might be? Thanks, Rich

I am using Adobe Captivate to create a course with output in SCORM format for an LMS. We’re encountering an issue where the option to make the screen fullscreen seems missing. We couldn't find such a feature while attempting to add a fullscreen button via the Skin Editor. Is there any way to include a fullscreen button?

I have recently downloaded Captivate on an M1 Mac and every time I try and open the Question Pool it crashes I have tried Adobe support but the AI bot is useless so I put my crash report into Co-Pilot and it gave me this. Everything is up to date, I feel that this is a useless piece of software and that I have been ripped of as it wil cost me the rest of the year's subscription to cancel it!!! The crash report for Adobe Captivate indicates that the application crashed due to an uncaught exception. Here are the key details:Exception Type: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP)Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000001, 0x0000000191c6c228Termination Reason: Namespace SIGNAL, Code 5 Trace/BPT trap: 5Crashed Thread: CrBrowserMain (Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread)Detailed Analysis:The crash occurred in the main thread, specifically in the CrBrowserMain thread, which is part of the Chromium Embedded Framework used by Adobe Captivate.The backtrace shows that the crash happened when the application was

Hello, I'm using adobe captivate version 12.4.0.20. I have slide videos on a total of about 10 slides. I don't want to use the playbar, visually, it doesn't fit with my design, and I just don't really like it. My videos are all setup the same way. I added 4 buttons, a next button, a pause button, a play button and a back button. For that one, I just added a bookmark at the start of the slide, and I ask the button to jump to the bookmark. My problem is that on some of the slides, when I hit preview and test it, the button doesn't jump to where my bookmark is, but at some other point on the video (around 10 seconds in)... Is there a problem with bookmarks? or is it a preview issue?

What is everyone using to manage all their Captivate 12 Files and associated files (audio, video, graphics, etc)?   We have had issues with Cloud Drives corrupting files, but we definitely need a way to collaborate on content creation.  We have had problems with OneDrive and GDrive.  I was thinking about using GitHub...  but I was curious what other folks might be doing to keep files properly organized and have some sensible version control.

Good day, all;  I am having an issue with HTML content from Captivate and I'm not sure there's anything I can do about it or, if there is, what that might be.  I created a Captivate lesson for my institution last year that was fairly straightforward. It had graphics, audio and a few questions which I built (rather than use the question feature). The lesson was exported as a SCORM package and no issues were encountered by any of the nearly 100 people who completed it.  For this year, however, the institution requested me to publish it as an HTML package as they wanted to offer it on the website (rather than within the LMS). I packaged it and sent it off as requested and while it functionally works, it got rejected by IT due to some issues as quoted below (from two separate emails to me)(red text added by me): The first, when I said there was nothing in the file (meaning I had added no links to external widgets, etc.): "However, the files you provided..

So I'm developing this course in Captivate, and for a section of the course, I need to create an accordion menu catalog of three subsections with four items each that corresponds to 12 different slides the user can navigate to. (Example below) I tried using the pre-made learning interaction, but as far as I can tell, you cannot set any actions within the text allowed in the contact area, and I need my text to link out to other slides. I looked into incorporating a Javascript interaction, but I don't know how to interact with the elements on my slide already or if its even worth it to set that up. Does anyone have a solution or a fix for this?Slide 22: Voice ServicesMenu Section 1: Standard Voice Services          Item 1: POTS          Item 2: Private Lines          Item 3: Calling Features          Item 4: Op

Here's a more polished version of your query:Hi,I’m facing some issues with my eLearning module and need assistance resolving them:Quiz Refresh Issue:The module has multiple quizzes appearing after every 5 slides. If a user navigates back using the back button, the quiz does not refresh. However, the quiz refreshes if the user clicks the "Retake Quiz" option on the results page. How can I ensure the quiz refreshes correctly when using the back button?Quiz Attempts Issue:Each question allows 2 attempts, but after failing on the first attempt, the quiz answers are not refreshing for the second attempt. How can I ensure answers refresh properly after each attempt?Progress Bar Issue:I’ve disabled the draggable progress bar using Paul Wilson’s JavaScript tutorial. While the drag functionality is disabled, clicking on the progress bar pauses the module. How can I prevent this behavior?I’d appreciate your guidance on these issues.Thank you!

When uploading to our organizations LMS, the title of the training is not showing.  I displays as "Index_SCO_Title".   Where do I change this in Captivate so that it displays correctly when uploaded to LMS? We are running ver. 12.2.0.19Project info is filled out,  Reporting is enabled, SCORM 2004, Course ID, Course Title, and SCO Title are all filled with the course title.  What am I am missing or not checking?Thanks! 

Which template allows for no scrolling to view the next button? I must scroll down to view the button when using specific image templates. However, some templates allow for a full-screen view without any scrolling. I've noticed that the button is visible without any scrolling. In the certified learning path videos, the instructors scroll down to view the unseen button at the bottom of the slide. Is this common?  My client wants to display it so the learner will not have to do additional actions.  Any suggestions? Thank you 

Hola ¿Cómo puedo hacer para cambiar el texto "Index_SCO_Title" que aparece debajo del título del proyecto cuando genero un archivo scorm realizado con captivate 12.4 por favor?
