Captivate

Recently I have begun attempting to convert older projects to captivate 5. However, once I started loading the videos I quickly realized that they are not playing in captivate 5! I know that these videos stream from the server just fine as I have been running them with other products and I know that the paths are correct because I've been using a web player to test the paths of the videos that will not play. How do I get around the bugs in Captivate and get the video working?

I have a knowledge check MC question in Captivate 9.It is set to 2 attempts.I'd like the first incorrect retry message to say You have one more attempt, try again.If the 2nd and last attempt is also incorrect, I'd like the message to be different and give the learner the answer and a way to advance to the next slide.My requirements actually ask for the learner to be notified the correct answer after the second attempt, and then click the correct answer. I think this last requirement to click it can be eliminated, but if there is away to incorporate that too, I'm all ears.Is this possible?

I just bought a new Mac Mini. The only software I physically have anymore is the upgrade for CS5. I had upgraded from CS2(which was purchased back in college) and I have no idea where those disc(s) are since it's been over 10 years and countless moves ago. Is there any way I can install the CS5 upgrade without having a previous version of CS since this is on a new computer?Appreciate any help

I'd love to see a new option under the 'User Access' section of the Preferences.Something along the lines of 'Completed - When user views slide number X (Slide number 100 for example) or the Quiz is passed'.How do I put this forward as a suggestion, I can't seem to find any way of doing this.Thanks,Lee[Here is the list of all Adobe forums... https://forums.adobe.com/welcome][Comments is to ask about the operation of the Forum, not a specific program][Moved from the Comments forum to the specific Program forum...

Does anyone else have an issue with the Assets screen not closing? I have a project open now that I need to save, but the Assets screen will not close.Any suggestions?

Hi all, Quiz Preferences - Completion CriteriaDoes anyone know if the 'Slide Views 100%' option is branch aware? Or does this simply mean that user have to view 100% of ALL slides within the course/module for it to be considered as 'Completed'?Thanks in advance for any advice,Lee

Hello,I published a course using Captivate 8. It runs fine locally, but when I load it onto our customer's site - nothing. Just a white screen and a spinning wheel. Doesn't matter which browser I use. I tried publishing to just Flash, just HTML, and both. Has anyone else had this issue?

Hi all,I’ve created a course based on system compliance.This is the scenario:The course requires bookmarking (remember where the user left off if exiting early for some reason)If they fail the course, they need to re-take the entire course, not just the quiz (we want them to learn the content, not just guess the answers several times)The course has branches (different processes for different groups of salespeople)This is the problem:Users would like the option to resume from where they left off.Enabling ‘Send Resume Data’ provides a way for the user to get back to the point where they last left off, that’s great. However, if they exit the course after viewing at least one question slide, it’s considered that they ‘attempted’ the quiz.  As a result, this marks the course as ‘Completed’.I need a way for them to be able to get to the end of the course, answering the questions within the branch they are on and be able to fail. Only at this point should the course be considered as ‘Com

Attempted to publish an HTML5 only project to Adobe Connect, and received an error message saying to check my internet connection. Same project will publish as SWF only.Spoke with Abobe directly, and after much back and forth was told there's a bug related to the recent Adobe Connect upgrade. Has anyone else encountered this? Any word on a possible fix? This is beginning to impact my ability to get my job done.

Hi,I was wondering whether there was a way of deleting the 'x' on the text box.It's really large and looks quire daft in the text box.Thanks,Izzy

I have run into a strange issue. I have created a software simulation with Captivate 2019. There are a number of places where the user enters information into a number of textboxes. This all works perfectly on a Windows PC with any type of browser... and it works on a MAC with a Firefox browser. However, if I use Safari on the same MAC, I am getting some strange things where the text box is not showing up and the user cannot see the text they are typing. Any thoughts?

Is there something that I am missing?  At work we are using Captivate 7 to create Video Demos of our web software.  While the screen capture is happening drop down menus on our site will not work correctly.  The work fine when I stop the capture.  So it is clear that is something that is happening in the screen capture process.  Any ideas?

What is the best Windows app to use with Captivate 2017 for doing voice over recordings? I want to make sure they are clear and that I don't have any issues with uploading.

I am using Captivate 8. I noticed the larger I make the Text Entry Box the larger the X box becomes. Is there a way to keep it the size it normally shows up in smaller Text Entry boxes?

I am creating a software simulation and have a few snippets of code that are working differently upon execution. I have tested these with various alerts to see that the code follows the structure and it appears that the cpCmndGotoFrameAndResume is not functioning when I assign a value to it from a TEB.... It does work if I'm using a smart shape however and executing the code from there. This is the code I run in my smartshape:(This code works and resets the focus on the TEB and allows the shortcut key to submit)var frame=window.cpAPIInterface.getVariableValue("cpInfoCurrentFrame");window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue("xcmndHide","Rx_@");window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue("xcmndHide","Order_Info@");window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue("xcmndHide","PRC_@");window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue("xcmndHide","Ins_@");window.document.getElementById('Search_3').focus();window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue("cpCmndGotoFrameAndResume", frame-5);This is the code I run in my TEB:(This c

Recently we have noticed quiz scoring is randomly incorrect. For example, when a quiz max score is 200 points, some users will show out of 1000 instead of 200 causing them to "fail". See my example below. I find no correlation to the number of attempts or versions, etc. Is anyone experiencing this? Is there a known issue?

I am a little perplexed that rollovers which are identified as non-compliant with HTML5 were still operational in my SCORM file as described below.I have uploaded an HTML5 SCORM .zip file to our Saba LMS to test multi-state buttons as well as validate non-compliance of the rollover object. My development tool is Captivate 2017 and I am using IE11 for my validation. Interestingly... The Continue buttons seem to work just fine.The multi-state buttons while a little clunky, were functional.Most interesting was that the rollover areas seem to work…a little puzzling as the built-in Captivate HTML5 tracker (Window ->HTML5 Tracker) called out these slides… FYI, the course bookmarked just fine and once I touched all of the slides, Saba marked me as Successfully completed. Though the rollovers worked, I am a little leery.  We further tested in IE11 by disabling shockwave Flash in the IE11 browser settings.  We also viewed via an Android.  Still, the rollovers worked.

Hi! I have problem with the glossary in Captivate...The glossary won't appear when I preview it...Can somebody can help me ?Thank you so muchMP

Hi! I have a picture of a screen (screen_m) that shows 0 or 10 when I push a button A. The button toggle the screen number by using the Object Stage panel.Then I have a second button B that shows a specific state (mute) of the screen (screen_m). The B button should toggle between (mute) and the last visited state, that could be either 0 or 10. Can't figure out how to do that. There is no "Last visited slide"version for the Object States.Any ideas?

It was my reason to leave "Articulate Storyline" and buy "Adobe Captivate" but Adobe as always disappointed me again ... Because I can't find a way to do this :I have a blank slide in adobe captivate 2019, Just a Blank Slide... Ok ... Now the question is: How can I execute a javascript code at frame "90" for example ... I want to tell to timeline to execute a javascript code at frame 90 ... Any Idea is Extremely appreciated.

Hi,This is a tricky problem but someone has probably seen it before.I have one slide with four buttons and four smart shapes that contains information. The idea is this:When I click a button it should change color to green. (It's working)All the other buttons must be reset to normal state. There can be only one...green. (Does not work)A info box (smart shape) connected to the right button should be visible, and the others should be hidden. (Done not work)This is what I have done:I have a user variable, dm_button that is set to the value 1. (I print out the variable, and it works for)I have one slide with four buttons and four smart shapes. Each buttons change the state when it is clicked.Each button Action runs an Advanced Action that sets a new value for the dm_button variable and justing Jump to slide (the same slide).On Enter (slide) another Advanced Action is supposed to be triggered. But it's not. This Advanced Action should change the states of the buttons and show or hide the in

Hello everybody!Before I write my question, I must say that I am not very familiar with adobe captivate yet. Therefore, my questions may be a bit silly for those who are already familiar with it.I created a file and published as SWF and HTML5. The output is a folder containing several things, including:- multiscreen.html;-project_name.htm;-project_name.swf;-project_name.pdf;-project_name_fs.htm;-index.html;-goodbye.html.When I click on the multiscreen.html, it opens a blank page (in any browser). The files project_name.htm and project_name_fs.htm open a blank page with the option "Click here to open in full screen". When you click on it, a blank page appears and nothing happens (in any browser). The project_name.swf does not open at all on my computer. The project_name.pdf works fine, but it is required the flash player. The index.html opens, but it takes about 30 seconds to open (which I think is quite a lot). My first question is: the index.html is always the file that I need to open

We've recently updated to Captivate 2019 from Captivate 8. I've installed all updates the Captivate updater can find. This happens for both projects converted from Captivate 8 (that used to publish and open with no issues through C8) and ones created new in 2019. I made a test project that's just one slide with Test on it and still get the error. The issue is:Published projects open no problem from my local machine.I copy them to our network share, and they open fine when copied there and opened from the directory.Our company has a url alias to the files on that share so students can access the presentations (e.g., \\Share\TestProject maps to https://ourdomain/training/TestProject). When attempting to load the same presentation that worked in both previous cases, we just get the spinning wheel indefinitely.This is affecting multiple users (everyone that's tested it for me), and I can reproduce it consistently across FireFox, Chrome, and Edge on Windows and Mac.The modules are being aut
