Captivate

I've been asked to enlarge the Captivate playbar "a little".  As far as I know, I'm limited to the playbars provided (Captivate 2017 or 2019), but I'm wondering if there are other options I haven't come across.Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,Is it possible to delay the appearance of the hint and incorrect caption boxes on a click box?I would like to include a text caption box on the slide to direct the learner to find the correct tool before the hint appears, but have the click box available.So far I can only see one item in the timeline for the click box which includes the timing for the hint and incorrect captions. I'm using Captivate 8.Thank youKaren

Hello,Our corporate bundle is having some issues with HTML5 loading in Adobe Captivate 2017.  Any known issue with the HTML5 quiz questions partially loading through VPN?Thank you

Hi,Using most up to date Captivate 9.I've been taking advantage of the theme function. Its working nicely. However, I'm noticing when I start a new project and apply the one them I've created, many styles are duplicated and all have version numbers suffixed like _1 or _1_2. The weird thing is - I never named any of these styles with a version number.I am suspicious these are caused by making a slight change to an object, like bolding one word, and that style is prefixed with a +. Then saving the theme and applying the them to the next project. I'm really not sure though, just a suspicion. Using one style or the other seems to not make a difference, but it is a bit frustrating. If this continues I'll have a very large list of styles. Does anyone have an answer to how this happened in my styles/theme and how I can prevent? Good chance I did something wrong, but I want to start preventing it.

Anyone know how to add font awesome icons to captivate 7 presentations?

Release version 10.0.1.285I found a issue with Captivate 2017 (10.0.1.285). After I rescale my project to a larger size while keeping the objects in the project the same size.I select Top Center for Position Project.When publishing to HTML 5 the FullMotion slides when played gets resized. The video gets squeezed to a smaller width, not matching the width of the other slides.It does this only in HTML 5 not in SWF. I believe this is a bug with Captivate 2017 (10.0.1.285). It was not doing this in the prior update. Could you please verify?Thanks,

We are rolling out Closed Captioning using Adobe 2019. However, when apostrophes and ampersands are used, the Closed Captioning converts these characters into an "a" with an accent mark over it. Our possessives and contractions now look like they are misspelled. Does anyone know how to get around this?

Is there a way to insert a table (with the ability to add text) in a Captivate project?  Thank you.

Hey there!I'm quite new to the Captivate Community, and I've been working on a project. After a while Captivate 9 started to do funny things, which I could always solve with clearing Program Preferences, or the Application Cashe, worst case scenario with rebooting my notebook. Now every time I want to add a question slide to any project, it keeps crashing without even an error message. These are the things I already checked and modified: Cleared Prog. Preferences, cleared App Cashe, set to always run as Administrator, checked how much RAM I have (8 GB), and I tried to reboot a couple of times...  Do you have any ideas how to solve this issue?Thank you!!

Hi guys,I am not sure that this has been asked on this forum and it is something that we at my organisation NEED to know!Does anyone out there know if there is some sort of FREE online accessibility checker to ensure that the colours we are using in our Captivate e-learning packages are compliant? This is primarily for people who are Dyslexic. Ideally we would like to produce a web-based version of one of our e-learning packages and test it online.Does anyone know if there is a good online resource for this that is free?ThanksKeithThanks in advance!

Is there a way to prevent the "submit" button on quiz slides from appearing until a learner has selected an answer?

Hey Captivate Community. I am building a drag n drop but run into the same issue.I want to build a drag n drop exercise where:- you drag elements into an area that contains more than one dragged element eventually- your dragged elements snap back when not dropped into correct target- you advance to the next slide once, and only when, you dropped each element correctly.- a feedback text (consisting of grouped objects, one textfield and one button) for each drag-element is shown after you drop that element correctly.- Therefore I assigned an object action that shows that feedback text (group)So far so good. What causes troubles is the last feature:- Once you click the button inside that feedback group, however, instead of hiding the feedback text (what it is supposed to do), it advances to the next slide even though the exercise is not finished yet. I double checked: the button triggers the action "hide" (Feedback group).I'm sure it's just a detail but I can not find it.Thanks in adavanc

I've been using Captivate 2018 and 2019 for over a year now. Our company develops software, and we have a critical need to move our old ILT to scalable, self-paced e-learning as fast as possible. I was a software developer before moving into training and instructional design 12 years ago. I work in a distributed team of 7 people spread across North America. And we use Agile development techniques, which means we're not strictly one person working on one Captivate project. Lastly, our company uses Macs, so we us Captivate on macOS.We also use Lucidchart.  A lot.I've ground my teeth at how bad Captivate is on macOS. But, as a software developer from way back, I understand Adobe have codebase that started life 20 years ago when creative users worked alone, on a PC, and shared completed work on a network drive.That world does not exist now.We use Kanban principles where a free ID works on a prioritized list of e-learning projects. We need to collaborate on the same project, at the sam

Hello,Perhaps someone has experienced this weird issue in the Library Panel and can offer advice?  The Library Panel display the Date Modified information in Spanish. The other columns of information (Name, Size, etc.) are in English. Weird, eh?How can I change the Library Panel to display all information in English? Assuming that is not possible, can the Date Modified be displayed as numbers and not words (12/1/2013 for example)?Thanks for your help,See attached pix.Cheers,

Building for a 508 requirement that uses IE and JAWS 14 on a Windows 7 machine using the Captivate 7.01.237 version. I'll state out front that we made 508 accessible pdfs that were given extremely high marks by our mobility and sight impaired user groups, but are not considered other than "ancillary" accessibility by the government tester (not sure why) Currently running into this laundry list when testing to the SCORM Cloud and applying JAWS:JAWS reads the variable script in a text box instead of the output (example reads: "$$cpInfoCurrentSlide$$ of $$rdinfoSlideCount$$" instead of "1 of 2" and reads "$$cpInfoProjectName$$$$cpInfoDescription$$" rather than "Lesson1 - JAWS is Evil")If a button has three states (selected, rollover, and not selected) JAWS reads this as three buttons, and two don't have name, role, and state information.JAWS won't read the feedback boxes on any question slide, period.If you set up an action to reveal information after the user makes a choice by selecting

Hi, I am having problems seeing the origin of this problem. I have x2 smartshapes set to be buttons. On the inbuilt "down" state, the button "presses in" and becomes smaller by a few pixels upon being clicked. I cannot see a way to correct this. I do not want this, I want the down state being the same size as the hover state. Thanks for any suggestions. Please do comment if this is something built in which cannot be remedied.I have looked through the community here for similar threads but cannot see any which address this. Thanks.

When I preview my course in Adobe Captivate all of my navigation tools are all together on the bottom left corner.  When I publish to DigitalChalk LMS, they space across the entire bottom of the slide. See image below. Can you tell me why my navigation buttons distort?  I spoke with my LMS provider and they said it was due to formatting when published in Captivate 2017 and that I should talk to someone at Adobe.

Hi Guys,Just a question if I may...With the latest version of captivate, is it still possible to do a couple of slides each with a multiple choice question that does not go to a final score for SCORM tracking purposes that just show if you are right or wrong as a simple test before the Main Assessment. These 2 slides would not have a "Results" screen.Then I would have the Main Assessment that has questions drawn randomly from a pool of questions. This does have a Results screen and the score is scorm tracked with the results showing in the administration section of any LMSHow would I go about this?Is there any tutorials out there that show how this can be done as I have looked to no avail or a useful example that I can download?Thanks in advance!Cheers!

I can run Captivate 9 as a standard user on Windows 7 with no issues.When I run Captivate 9 as a standard user on Windows 10, MSVCR100.dll faults and closes the program.  I can, however, run as an admin and everything is fine.Has anyone run into this or figured out how to run Captivate 9 as a standard user on Windows 10?Thank you.

Can Captivate 2019 upload directly as a SCORM package into an LMS platform without publishing on my computer first? I thought I saw something about this, but now I cannot find any reference to it. If this is now possible, how does that work?

Can you still purchase Captivate 2017; or is it a subscription like 2019.  I'm not ready for 2019.Thanks!!

When I publish, the video in the TOC is off-center to the left. See image. It's fine when I Preview. This is in HTML5 , which is how the client needs it delivered. I've had it happen before on all other projects in Captivate 9, but clients didn't mind. This client does.
