I'm using the infinite scroll feaure for my trainings and when transitioning from one scene to the next the "next" scene doesn't start at the top. At times it is just below the top or sometimes it is in middle of the next scene. Is there way to prevent this from happening? Why does it happen so I can fix it in the future?
Hi there, First time posting on these forums having been a long time lurker to a many unanswered question. I'm in the process of transitioning from Adobe Captivate Classic to Adobe Captivate 2019 and was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to have a video (.mp4 specifically) as a background that could loop? This was possible in Adobe Captivate Classic; however, I do not see the file type as an option with Adobe Captivate 2019 (only .jpg, .png, .bmp, .iso, and .svg).Even a .gif could be a workable solution if it's at all feasible. If not, does anyone know where/how we can request features?Thanks!
I'm using the infinite scroll and in one of my scense I have choosen to use the overlay to have "pop ups" to give more details of the topic. However once the overlay is exited the scene goes back to the top rather than staying where the material is, for example in the middle of the scene or even towards the end. How can I prevent that, so the learner doens't have to scroll back down to the list of topics that they need to click? If overlay isn't a good option then what can be used instead to ensure once they close the "pop out" it stays on the list.
When preparing a multiple choice quiz, we can justify the text to the right or left in the heading section. But this is not possible in the options section. I'm working with a language written from right to left, but I didn't see an option to start the text from the right. Is this possible for the question options?
The Chrome browser (Chromium) is deprecating the onUnLoad function and Captivate classic still inserting the onUnLoad function into the exported SCORM 1.2 file (scripts). What options do I have to replace the onUnLoad function from Captivate with something else to continue operations? How have you navigated around this upcoming issue. Thank you.
Hi there!I'm fairly new to Adobe Captivate, and am finding my way around.I do however have a question about the radio group component which I have added to a form. I can understand that one would want to "Include in Quiz" and "Report to LMS." BUT, why is there a "points" option, and "Add to total"? Nowhere do I see how to set the correct answer for this item. Infact, having a number of radio group components all on one slide makes sense. It would be really handy. Students would be able to read questions prior to listening. Having multiple choice questions spread over a number of slides is not ideal.
Can you add a custon play, paues button to a slide vidoe widget? The problem is as soon as the video appears it starts playing, it owuld be nice to have a least a 1 second delay before it appears?
Hi all, we are creating e-learning content with Adobe Captivate 2023, and we see that the index comes out with a black background and a default font, is it possible to change this?
My question is more about what LMC can do. I have never used one before, but I'm very familiar with Captivate 5. Question 1. Can a LMC pass data to and from Captivate? For example, if I had a test, could the user submit incomplete answers, close the project and come back to it later and have the LMC populate the project with their previous answer? Question 2. A quick search suggests that there are a lot of LMC's out there, including Adobe Connect. Are these all going to be expensive options? I'm not a big player or university, I provide some training to schools, and am really just looking to use a LMC to help me solve a problem where I need to allow users to enter "answers" and then change those answers on different slides, and also be able to span more than one session of the project. Am I barking up the wrong tree??Thanks for helping out a newbie to LMC!James

I have several Captivate Simulations and we have turned on captions for success/try again messaging for the Click Box. Some slides only flash the correct message then it moves to the next slide. Others will display correct message for a few seconds then proceed. What is controlling the timing of the messaging for the captions. I have looked and I am not seeing anything that is clear to me. Thanks for the help. Version: 12.4 Screenshot of timeline for normal activity Screenshot of timeline where the message only flashes quickly
I have just downloaded the latest version of Captivate for Mac (running on apple silicone) and when I try to open Question Pool it crashes. I am not sure what to do. If I can't get this to work I may have to cancel my subscription and look at a different piece of saoftware.
Hey there, I'm using Captivate 12.4. The blur feature is really greate. I had to use highlight boxes for bluring someting.Here is the problem, I can create a custom theme for myself. Each font, color other settings is working great but I can not customize Simulation Slide features, like I can not choose the font or default color of Insctructions box. And in which universe blur comes with a border in default setting?? Which I can't edit the blur default settings. In each slide I use blur two times, I change the Blur settings %40 to 20% and remove the border for each item.It is really imposibble to customize these settings? I also find customizable settings in under the ProgramFiles folder in captivate with all the themes, buttons and other items. What a surprise I can't find any item related to the software simulation slide items.What can I do for these?
I'm using the All New Adobe Captivate. My hotspots are gold in the project and in the preview, but when I publish the project, the hotspots are black. How do I fix this?
Good evening, When I publish a SCORM 2004 4th edition course in Captivate 2019, a bar displays at the top of the playscreen in our LMS that I do not like. I contacted our LMS vendor and they have informed me that it is a default Captivate Rustici bar, not our LMS's native bar. Does anyone know if there is a way to disable it? See attached screenshot. Regards,Catherine H.
Our company has "old" 2019 Captivate for use with a third-party vendor's files that we need to edit (most of them are done in that version of Captivate).Occasionally, I'll get the, "Adobe Captivate could no open . . ." prompt for projects. Does anyone know if Captivate Classic does a better job at opening these problematic files?
How can I change the default text-to-speech voice from Adam to one I want to use on every slide? Right now it seems I must change the voice selection manually on each slide. It seems to me there must be a better way. Thanks! Bill
I need a pdf/word document with all the content as a handout. Is that possible?
Can multi-scorm packager be added to the new captivate?
The files InternalServerReporting.php and internalserverread.php contain lines that are no longer functional in the current version of php.I read somewhere here that it is necessary to find someone who can write php to modify them. Aren't these files part of the functionality of Captivate and they should be kept up to date by Adobe? Anyway, if anyone here has already updated such files and cares to share, I appreciate the help. Or, if I had misunderstood the problem and need other information, I am grateful for any light you care to throw my way.
Hello,I am currently using Captivate 12.3 to create a "template" for a quiz. This quiz is limited to 1 attempt with a passing score of 80%. I have the Quiz Result slide (slide 7) configured to go to the next slide (slide 😎 On Pass and jump to the Quiz Failed slide (slide 9) On Fail. When I click Continue after passing it goes to the next slide as intended. However, when I click Continue after failing nothing happens and I remain stuck on the Quiz Results slide. Any ideas how to fix this? Screenshots attached of the properties.
Hallo,ich habe gehört, dass Adobe Captivate nicht mehr weiterentwickelt wird. Ist da etwas dran?
We have developed a course using Adobe Captivate 12.4 and are testing its accessibility on iPad and iPhone with VoiceOver enabled. We are encountering the following issues:We have added multiple-choice questions using Adobe Captivate’s default Multiple Choice Question slide template. When selecting an option, the focus unexpectedly moves to the sidebar instead of staying on the selected option. This issue only occurs on iPad and iPhone; on Mac and Windows, the focus remains on the chosen option.When selecting any interactive button—such as the "Next" button on the playbar or the "Table of Contents" button—the focus shifts to an unrelated area. For example, selecting the "Next" button redirects the focus to the sidebar instead of moving forward as expected.We have observed this issue exclusively on iPad and iPhone; everything works as expected on Mac and Windows.
Trying to install Adobe Captivate Voices and ELearning Assets. Receive Error code 41: Unable to access a critical file/directory.I have retried to install several times on my Mac. Please help. Thank you!
Having an issue with the 12.4 update concerning scrolling slides. After you reach the end of a scrolling slide and go to the next slide, the next slide will display at the bottom which requires users to scroll up to see the missed content. This was also mentioned by another person in the comments of last month's video with Paul Wilson. "Not sure if this is a 12.4 update issue, but my slides that have scrolling content in them linked to another slide with scrolling content are not loading at the top of the page. In other words, when you reach the end of the scrolling content on the 1st slide > click continue to the next slide with scrolling content, it loads at the bottom of the page, not the top!"
