Captivate

I've created this doc in illustrator that's supposed to have pop-up boxes when hovering over certain parts of the text.  That part works great once set up in adobe acrobat with the set layer visibility option. I've now been asked to add a link for people to click on in one of the boxes, however once you move the mouse away, the box is no longer visible. Is there any way that I can set it so you click on the field and the layer stays visible until you click out?  Any help and recs will be immensinly appreciated 

Hi I am using new version of captivate now, the new captivate 12. I am wondering is it possible for me  to change the font in the TOC? Because I seem cannot find any settings that allow me to change the font on TOC. I would like to change the TOC font to Sans-serif rather than using the Serif font. Thank you. Any help and replies would greatly appreciated!

I am trying to center my playbar in between the back and forward buttons I've created. I don't see how I can adjust the alignment of the playbar. With it left-justified, it blocks my back button. Any ideas?

I am trying to publish a Captivate unit to a device. There has been a change since I last did this.I now have to link this to my Adobe Fonts account. I have tried every way I know, read various articles, added fonts to my Font account, but I still do not see them in my Captivate program. Here are the screen shots and the places that I have researched. I am at a complete loss as to where to go next. TIA. https://elearning.adobe.com/2019/09/embedding-new-system-fonts-adobe-captivate-2019/https://helpx.adobe.com/fonts/kb/add-fonts-desktop.html    

Hi Everyone, Unfortunately, I'm having trouble with Captivate 12.3 again. I cannot for the life of me get the failure action on the QUiz Review slide to go to another slide. It worked when the quiz is passed. But not when the quiz is failed. I need this action so the user can review the video content on another slide or take the quiz again. While it worked to backward to a slide, it doesn't seem to work in a branched interaction to move forward. Any suggestions? I named my slides Passed and Failed

Hi Everyone, I have been using another e-learning development platform and finding some holes in it from my needs and looking for some feedback from the community to see if Captivate will work better for me... 🤞 Is there an easy way to offer multiple languages for users to select from without having multiple modules in different languages? I.e. Can you set up the modules to allow users to register for a course and, within the one course, select the language they wish (I have four languages the module is offered in) and go from there based on a language selector on the first screen? Maybe this can be best handled through branching?I really like how Adobe has its learning components, where it is a try-the-software with the instructions pane to the left and checks off when something is completed properly before proceeding. Is this type of design available within Captivate? Is this beyond Captivate?  I can see some of my clients who would love this way of learning ov

Hola, habitualmente cuando trabajo con captivate classic para mac, el apartado de propiedades "carácter" aparece vacío después de un tiempo trabajando con el programa.Algunas veces se arregla reiniciando y otras incluso debo instalar el software de nuevo.¿Pueden ayudarme por favor?

Hi Everyone, I am tasked to create either a button or an exit slide feature that saves my position in the timeline so that when i exit the course I can come back and pick up where I started. To be clear, I have already implemented this step so the user can pause/play while they are viewing the material (https://youtu.be/drk8vK5yFKE?si=IRhjasG3wnrcLwyv). My concern now is precisely upon exiting, is there a way to create a save state either through the variables within captivate or using javascript or utilizing both, and how what does this look like?  Thanks so much! I've been at this for a couple weeks and cannot find the answer to my prayers.

Hope all is well. Can I ask if it is possible to add a point on slide enter? I'm planning to add a point at the end of a module and there will be no button at all, so when they enter the last slide, it will score a point and mark as complete. The reason for this is, on some of my training modules, I have a mouse scroll effect (continues to the next slide) and also place a shortcut that jumps to the end of that scroll (incase a learner doesnt have a mouse wheel). If the learner uses the shortcut, I just realized that it misses few slides. Therefore, they cannot achieve 100% slide completion and giving an issue unable to proceed on the next module. If I made it like 90% but a learner didnt use the shortcut,  lets say on slide 90 out of 100, they will already received a notification on the LMS that they completed the training (releases certificate) I bit of confusion for me, So I was thinking instead of counting the slides, I will just put a score point at the end and

Hello dear community,I’m currently a bit puzzled with the new Captivate. I’ve recently changed companies to set up an e-learning environment there - I originally come from iSpring. I intended to switch to Captivate, and my understanding of the "capabilities" was based on Captivate Classic (as it is apparently now called).However, I'm somewhat disappointed with the capabilities of Captivate 12, and I’m not sure if it’s really worth it. Can one simply rely on Captivate Classic to create learning content, or is the service for Classic going to be discontinued at some point? I don’t feel comfortable recommending Captivate to my company right now... and I’m leaning more towards Articulate.Is it just my impression that the capabilities of Captivate 12 are significantly more limited due to its focus on responsiveness

I have been trying to decrease the slide length for two drag and drop slides. Whenever I try to change it on the Timing portion of the Properties tab, it will not do so. Additionally, I have tried to use the timeline to decrease the time, but it is locked and refuses to move. Any assistance would be helpful, as I feel I have tried everything and nothing will work. 

I went into "Edit Theme" > "UI Components" > "Dropdown" and updated the font for all the states of the dropdown menu to the font that I want to use for it. It shows up in the theme the way I want it.    After I clicked Apply, I went to the slide where I had updated it, and in "Normal", "Hover" and "Disabled" it shows up correctly.   However, when I click on the dropdown menu and it switches to "Selected" state, the font reverts to what had been the default previously (Times New Roman).   When I tried changing the font of the other states that I have control over (Normal and Hover), and then went and re-applied the Theme, they didn't update.  Only the "Disabled" state seems to be controlled by the Theme. Neither "Selected" nor "Disabled" allow you to change the font. In Appearance, where the Normal and Hover states can change font types, the Appearance for the other two states only allows this:   I am using Capt

Hello!!! I am putting in a couple youtube videos in a project. The videos seem to be hit and miss as far as closed captions come.

Simplesmente, acentuações e caracteres especiais que não funcionam no Adobe New Captivate 2023. Testei diversas confirgurações de teclado, mas não reconhece a entrada pelo teclado (nem o virtual), apenas copiando e colando de outra ferramenta para o captivate, o que é inviável para quem produz e precisa de agilidade na criação.  Alguém sabe como solucionar?

So when I opena. project using the standard 'Light' template in the new Captivate, I get a little blue warning in the bottom right of the main window saying a font is missing (see screenshot) "Roboto" - to my knowledge I have not used any fonts outside of the included theme ones. Would there be a way to identify what element is looking for this? is it a UI element? is the only answer to manually click on each element in my project and see if any are randomly set to that font? 

White borders appear around the program window when I open pdf files with Adobe Acrobat. This happens both in dark and light modes of the display theme. Problem appears both in fullscreen and normal window modes. In the corner of this "white border" i can press the phantom exit button and it closes the app just like the native exit button would do normally. This glitch/bug annoys and is actually hard to work because sometimes the normal window exit button stops working and only this "phantom red button" would be pressable. Tried turning off the security mode(all buttons there are turned off) and tried various compatibility options. Nothing seemed to help.

I have a few quizzes in Captivate 2019 and I utilize the question pool to create random quizzes.  Is this possible in the new Captivate 12?

Hi!Could you please help me find my Adobe Captivate Specialist Certified badge or certificate?

I'm working with Adobe Captivate 12 and have a specific requirement for a Multiple Choice question. The question has 5 possible answers, 3 of which are correct and should each give 1 point when selected. Additionally, I want to award 1 point each for not selecting the 2 incorrect answers.In other words, I want to give points not only for choosing the correct answers but also for avoiding the incorrect ones. Is there a way to set this up in Captivate 12? Any guidance or steps on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated. 

I am using Captivate 11.8.0.710 and have published the course to an LMS. I have set the Quiz attempts in the Quiz -> Pass/Fail settings to infinite attempts. The Retake button is turned on. Do users have to retake the quiz in the same session using the retake button?  Currently, when a user fails the quiz and doesn’t choose Retake at that time, and ends the session of that module, when they come back to the quiz, they can no longer retake it. Instead, all they see is first question of the quiz in review mode with no navigation. Every time they return to the module, they are set to the next question in the quiz, but always still in  review mode with no nav. For example, if there are 10 questions in the quiz, they could leave and return to the quiz 10 times to see each question in review mode but they would never be able to retake it. Is this the designed behavior?

I am trying to publish a Captivate Project for a device. This will be put into Moodle. When I clicked on "Publish to Device" the first screen came up. There is a place to put in the Fonts Domains. When I click on the link to the Creative Cloud, I get a screen that wants me to purchase Creative Cloud, which our company already owns. When I chose my fonts, I used Web Safe Font, which is what was suggested to use. I did not click on the Cloud icon to choose. Is this something that I should have done? I am ready to publish this, but am at a loss as to how I can get the fonts domains. Thank you in advance for any assistance.Diane Guiett   

I am working on Captivate after 2019 and I am totally lost! The entire toolbar is different. I can't resize images the way I did, cannot edit the color and placement of the TOC(what happened to the skin editor?).  I can't drop an image without a media block, cannot import slides from a PPT and so much more. I feel like I don't know this tool at all. Is it possible to switch to the classic version from here?

I am having an issue with Captivate Classic.I have a slide with many text call outs on a video.  The Video position is set asTop 0%, Left 0%, width 100% and Height Auto.  When testing the video resises properly for the various devices (Specifically Desk Top and iPad (horizontal).  There are perhaps 12 or so callouts.  All have positions set at:Top x% Relative, Left y% Relative, width z% and Height Auto.  When testing against the various devices all callouts behave as expected (they remain locations wise as they should) except for one?  I have specifically checked the one not properly positioning and verified the Position is set like all the rest.   In the CpC Layout review I can see all the callouts positioning as expected except this one. I get the same sysmtomif I preview the project.Anyone know what I might be missing?

I am receiving the above error when trying to insert image blocks.  I have tried the instructions provided by Saurav_Ghosh in this thread https://community.adobe.com/t5/captivate-discussions/error-message-something-went-wrong-while-content-block-insertion/m-p/13951680  These instructions have not worked and i have also tried reinstalling the app,. Does Adobe have a solution for this issue?
