Captivate

Hello  I am using Captivate Version 2020 (Classic) I have created a software SIM which requires users to type into textboxes which is set up to auto submit when they type what has been set as validated text.  All works fine but..... If they are called away or busy and come back to fill it in, or take too long to fill it in, then when they get back, they can't type i any more... and cant move on. How do I avoid a time restriction for them typing in? Slide duration is 8 seconds and I have dragged the inactive bar to the end of the slide. Thank you

I am using Captivate 2019 version 11.8.3. I was very involved in creating content in Captivate back in version 8 and now I remember why I abandoned using captivate question templates altogether and used ispring for my quizzes and custom targets for course practice questions.  I tried using them again this time and again, bugs galore.  Some of the bugs: when you click on a question slide all text buttons become left justified instead of centered.  I tried to customize buttons to get a nicer look than the grey default buttons, failed, changed them back to text buttons, and now the rollover or down states can be a multitude of colors and types of buttons except what I selected - the grey buttons (all buttons I tried before and reset to default supposedly).  I tried to add image buttons thinking this would be a workaround - nope - more problems - the rollover states images and down images were displayed smaller than the normal state image even though they were the exact

Hello!I am trying to export a file to video, but I can't. It only allows me to publish to HTML5. Does anybody what is going on and how to fix this?I am using Captivate 2019.  Thank you for your help! 

Hola, estoy utilizando Captivate 12.3.0.12 2024. Me gustaría poner texto en tablas para crear algo parecido a lo de la imagen. ¿Es posible? Gracias de antemano.

Hello,  I created a short quiz and have set the ability to retake the quiz on fail. However, I've learned that the submit button will be grayed out if the quiz window is closed and reopened "resumed". This isn't an issue on the first try of the quiz and only when in the retake.  I am able to move to the next question using the slide navigation, upon review the grayed out submit question shows as no answer chosen in the end.  Using the newest captivate. 

I am not able to use any assets in captivate and its not getting imported to project. Audio / video assets are showing error if i click on them.Its very urgent that I need to get this solved, please help.

I have number of mp4 one after another in adobe captivate course but on the first attempt 11th or 12th mp4 palys without audio but when I come back to it. It plays fine. Please note the audio is within the MP4s.

I have a 40+ slide project - my first since captivate 8 years ago.  I go to preview it and the narration starts about 20 seconds too late, cuts out etc.  I can't tell if this is just a preview issue because when I publish I can only publish to device and there is no longer an executable file to run the project in the zip file.  Please help.

Is it possible to draw a curved line in Captivate 6?

I've had an ongoing issue that I'm wondering if anyone knows how to solve permanently.  I'm using Captivate 2019 for software simulations. These projects average 3-5 minutes, 40-60 slides. All the audio is mp3 format, sometimes wav. When I publish the project to video I usually have to do it several times for Captivate to actually include everything in the slide deck.  By that I mean, audio for some slides just does not show up. I can hear the audio in the editor, in the preview, in the SWF output format, but when I'm publishing to video specifically, the same few slides just keep encountering the same issue: they're completely silent despite there being an audio file imported to the slide.   Sometimes duplicating the slide and deleting the original works, sometimes reimporting the audio works, sometimes a machine restart, application restart, or just republishing altogether works, but none of these solutions work consistently, reliably, or predictabl

Hi all! This is my first post here 🙂  I'm in the Trial period for Captivate and seem to run into an issue. When I try to change the Playbar controls, the preview screen is blocking the controls sliders. Because of this, I cannot choose to turn certain buttons in the Playbar on or off. The same happens on the TOC tab. I cannot zoom in or out on this page, and changing the window size does not work either. Has anyone run into this before and know how to fix this?  

I am using Captivate classic and I have published a project and uploaded to the web. When I run the project I get incesent error messages in console - Uncaught SyntaxError: "[object Object]" is not valid JSON. This seems to be pointing to the CPM.js and CPXHRLoader.js files.  The main problem is that if i have any custom JS in the project, it will not run any of the functions and the project grinds to a halt. Any suggestions on how to fix this? I have also tried taking out all custom JS and I still get the errors in console, but the project plays normally then. 

I just installed Captivate 12.3.0.12 - I am using simulation demo to record a software program on Chrome browser. When I preview the simulation, the video zooms in, instead of showing the entire screen.  

Build: 11.5.5.5553 Gentlefolk,Rob Ward answered this question about a year ago, and offered up a third-party solution, which my organization won't pay for. So I think I know the answer but a year is a long time in the tech world and maybe something new has come along. [Rod's response here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/captivate-discussions/certificate-printout-right-justified-cannot-center-image/m-p/13902656#M302897] I have a PNG completion certificate background onto which I have placed variables to display the user name and completion date of the training. That part works fine. But the printouts are all heavily right-justified, with the printouts being handled by the window.print(); command. Aside from Rod's suggestions, has anything new come along to make this type of printout more presentable?  The audience is physicians, which as a class know an awful lot about the human body but knowledge of the innards of PDF printout adjustments is

It's a simple question requiring a simple answer, Adobe.If you've given the answer somewhere else, I apologise, but I haven't been able to find a date anywhere.Answers like "it's on the roadmap" just won't cut it.  I have clients that ask me about the prebuilt quickstart projects : "So you can open a quickstart project, switch the default images on Master Slides, tweak and create Object styles, and bring in your customised actions?".I reply "Umm, not exactly". And the next sentence from the client usually includes something like "we'd better find an application that can. Will Storyline, or Hype, or any of the other tools do that"?Help me out here. Anyone?

How do I advance to nect slide based on a choice made when using a pull down menu selection? Thanks

I opened an mp4 in Captivate to edit it.  This file was converted from a DVD to mp4 using another software.  At home, the mp4 plays with audio, but when I open it in Captivate, there is no audio.  Can someone explain?   Thanks.

I'm using video blocks/grids for a slide and I want to add a button to trigger to advance to the next slide after the user views all the videos. For some reason, once you watch any of the videos and click the button, it does nothing. It won't advance to the next slide. The button only works if you don't click any of the videos first. I can't seem to figure out why. I thought it was something I did wrong so I double checked to see if it works in one of the pre-built templates that's provided in Captivate. It doesn't even work on their own templates! Has anyone had any success with this? It works fine if I add a button to a slide video but I need it for a video block/grid. 

Bonjour à toutes et à tous, Je me permets de vous joindre car j'ai un problème majeur sur l'utilisation d'Adobe Captivate(version d'essai 2024)Contexte:Je dois publier sur une plateforme LMS des vidéos interactives, mais à chaque intégration sur la plateforme de codage (Visual Studio Code) , je me retrouve avec une fenêtre blanche concernant le projet. Tentatives:Dans l'idée d'une erreur de route, j'ai essayé de voir si ça fonctionnait en faisant un bouton pour ouvrir dans une nouvelle fenêtre, et là, ça fonctionne. Le code utilisé pour la fenêtre contextuel est le suivant: <a href="adresseduprojet/index.html" target="_blank" style="color: black; opacity: 0.35">Afficher en plein écran</a>L'adresse utilisée pour la miniature sur la page principale elle, est la suivante:   <iframe src="adresseduprojet/index.html" style="box-shadow: 2px 2px 5px rgba(0,0,0,.4);"></iframe>Vous êtes vous déjà retrouvé dans cette situation, et si oui, comm

Hello. Hoping for some assistance... I published a course to try it and it came out fine. Then I made a few edits- just changing some video slides, nothing crazy. Then I republished it. Now the Table of Contents is not publishing correctly. In Captivate, I have it organized so images are on the left, text is on the right, and clicking on the image takes you to the corresponding module.  But now, when it is published, the images are above the text, and they are stretched out. This is *not* what it shows in Captivate and we made no changes to the TOC page at all so I don't even understand why this is happening.  Please help me fix this. I cannot use this file with the TOC the way it is, it looks bad. But I can't fix it cuz what I see in Captivate is not what is being published. Thank you!

Hello, How can I enable the correct answer to be shown if the learner answers the question wrong?

Hello there fellow Captivate users. I am running into an issue with my advanced action breaking, and thus my slide is not working, so hoping someone can help me! I am running Captivate 11.8.3.8 on Windows 10.I have a slide with 8 click objects, 8 indicator arrows working with those objects, and one text multistate object which interact with an advanced action:I renamed all of them so that I can find the objects and build the advanced action, which does the following:- Change the state of the text object to one of its 8 states- Change the state of the current click object to selected- Reset the state of the other 7 click objects to normal- Show the indicator arrow of the current click object- Hide the other 7 indicators BUT when I save the advanced action, the names of Indicators 6, 7 and 8 change to 2, 3 and 4!(I was even sometimes struggling to find number 8 from the list available, and had to type out the name in order to get to it, not sure if this is a bug or just th

Hope all is keeping well! I'm new in captivate and worked on few projects for a software simulation and its working well but got a feedback regarding the screen resolution if its possible to have a bigger one. I'm publishing projects at 900x675, no TOC and no playbars and I believe its working well with different students but I know it will really depends on their laptops display settings and the browser they are using if its on 100% zoom. My current display is 1920x1080 and I'm happy with my view on the LMS Site But having thought of it, if I would like to publish upcoming projects on higher resolution. What would be the best resolution to use? Im currently looking for - 1280x720 (16:9) a wider one or - 1280x960 (4:3) which I believe has similar ratio with my current project. How do you think this will affect the look on the LMS Site as well as every student? Will it still be flexible resolution for every individual? I'm just avoiding the scrollbars to appear on the browsers but
