Captivate

Is there still a way to create/use geolocation based variables in the All New Adobe Captivate? To us, this was a real differentiator in the Classic version! 

I am producing 4 lengthy modules that include software simulations (i.e., LOTS of slides in the modules). Next buttons are set to appear when narration for each slide ends. My SME just requested that learners be allowed to navigate freely after completing the course. I figured that would be easy...add a variable to the last slide entry (varModuleComplete), and then show the header with the TOC button if varModuleComplete=true. Unfortunately, Show and Hide doesn't work for the header and footer.It looks like my options are this:Show/hide TOC based on varModuleComplete status (Downside: I don't have TOC button on the playbar, so if learner closes TOC, they can't just open it again.)Have 2 button blocks at the bottom of each slide--one with next buttons showing at the beginning of the slide, and the other with next buttons delayed to the end of the slide, then show/hide both based on varModuleComplete.Is there any way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? Either solution is a lot to add to

Hello everyone, I’m running into a weird issue in Captivate 2019 with Next buttons, TOC lock/unlock, and scrub bar disable when publishing to my LMS (uLearn).On Slide 1, On Enter I:Execute JavaScript to disable the scrub barAssign SlideVisited = 1 and SlideFullyVisited = 0Hide the Next buttonOn Exit, I assign SlideFullyVisited = 1.I also lock the inbuilt TOC at the start and unlock it on the last slide.This works fine the first time. But when I refresh the course or revisit it:The scrub bar and Next buttons look enabled at firstAs soon as I go back to Slide 1, the Next button disables again, and it cascades → all my Next buttons on later slides stop workingIf I avoid going back to Slide 1, everything else works fine.Can anyone help me with it? I have enabled self-paced learning, Unchecked never send resume data, and allow backtracking is enabled.I realized Slide 1 is re-running the On Enter script every time, resetting variabl

Hello, I have an issue with Adobe Captivate 12.5. Whenever I try to import an image from the asset image gallery, nothing happens. I click on replace the image, captivate starts loading, but nothing happens, no errors, nothing - the image is just not uploaded to the project and the default picture remains there. The strange thing is that there are no issues with uploading my own images from my pc.  It’s not just images, but the entire asset panel behaves in the same way, i.e. slide templates, icons etc. don’t respond as well.  I tried traditional methods of troubleshooting - cleared cache and properties, and the problem still persists. I’m currently using the 30-day trial version, but according to Adobe’s website, this shouldn’t be the source of the issue.  Thank you for your help. 

Hi everyone,I’m working in Adobe Captivate and noticed that sometimes my text captions look a bit blurry when previewed, even though they’re sharp in the editor. Is there a simple setting I might be missing to keep them crisp? Thanks!

Hi there,Some questions (and observations) on installing Captivate 2017 on a Mac running 10.13.5 High Sierra if I may?I downloaded and installed Captivate 2017 from the Adobe website this morning and only after talking to Support realised the first thing I had to do was to update it!Surely it should have downloaded and installed the latest/current version in the installation package?Also as is typical of other Adobe programs installing a single application in this instance Captivate 2017 results in scattering multiple folders & files across my Applications folder;Folder: Adobe Application Manager (Other) containing adobe_licensing_helperFolder: Adobe (Other) containing MultiSCOPackagerFolder: Adobe Captivate 2017 (Other) containing CPDeviceCapture, FakeFlash, AdobeCaptivateReviewer 2017Applications: Aggregator, Adobe Captivate QuizResultsAnalyzer9, Adobe Captivate & VideoPublisherIn addition Captivate then wants to install Java if I want to use the "java" command line tool alth

Thank you in advance for your help.  I'm creating a course for my employer, short quiz is at the end of the course. I've noticed the 'review area' that states if they have passed or not, is really plain, boring and can't be overly customised. I was wondering if there was a way I can create two texts boxes and/or buttons that will show on the slide when they have either failed or passed. An advanced action? Java Script? At the moment I have a 'retake quiz' button that takes the user back to the begining of the quiz slides to retry. I tried using a similar advanced action to that but that hasn't worked. I'm not very good with the coding of it all, just want I've found works by researching. Ideally; when the user passes the quiz, the 'congrats you passed, please click continue' will pop up on the quiz results slide...and vise versa for the fail popup. I've attached a couple of photos of what it's running on at the moment, which obviously isn't working be

Hi everyone,I’m a beginner in Adobe Illustrator and I’m trying to create swooping lines or swirls that look like they’re wrapping around a sphere.Is there an easy tool or technique for this, or is it something people usually draw freehand? I’d love to know the most beginner-friendly way to achieve this effect.Thanks in advance! 

Hey! I'm running into an issue with drag-and-drop interactions created in Captivate Classic (latest version). The interactions work perfectly on desktop with a mouse, and on iPad/iPhone, etc., but they fail on touch devices such as Surface Pro laptops and large touchscreen tables (Windows-based).  Here's what I've looked at so far: Published as HTML5-only (no SWF fallback)SCORM 1.2 and 2004, tested bothEnabled Scalable HTML ContentEnabled Gesture SupportUsed both text captions and smart shapes as drag sourcesSet SCORM to open in a new window on Moodle LMS (not in iframe)Tested in Moodle and SCORM Cloud (Failed in both locations).Tried long-press, stylus, tap-drag, and finger drag — no input is registered I found that:   The DND fails across all browsers (Edge, Chrome) on touchDND works perfectly on desktop using a mouseH5P DND interactions do work on these same devicesSome forum posts suggest that touch support only works on mobile browsers, not

I am having issues with the new Adobe Captivate CP. It will not launch.  I have tried to run in admin mode and also tried to uninstall all of my Creative Cloud apps so I could use CCleaner to clean up old files and the applications.  I was able to get it to work for a few days, and now the error message has returned.  Any suggestions would be welcome.  Thanks  

Hi, I'm using Captivate Classic (CpC) 2019.  I'm struggling with the radio button widget. I've inserted a widget through Interactions > Learning Interactions. I am able to add my text and adjust font by double-clicking into the widget. I'm also able to delete a radio button from there (I only want one radio button). But I'm having two issues.   No matter what I do to resize the widget box (whether I use the handles or adjust in the properties menu), the content gets cut off. The radio button only has one sentence, and I cannot get that to display properly both in CpC and in preview. Also, as I'm adjusting the widget size, it just becomes bigger and blurrier - but no matter how big I make it, it still cuts the sentence off from displaying. According to this post, I should have action and reporting options for the widget, but I don't. All I can adjust in the properties panel are Style, Options., and Timing.  If I cut my sentence down to the bare mini

I am using the latest Adobe Captivate 12.6 Is it possible to get an event listener for when triggered audio completes and adjust a variable accordingly.I am trying to setup a toggle button for triggered audio.I have a slide, an audio variable (true, false) and a button to play audio.When the learner clicks on the audio button, if sets the audio variable to true and plays an audio clip.If the audio variable is already true, then it sets it to false and stops the audio.This works fine but....My issue is when leaner clicks on the audio button, it sets the audio variable to true and plays the audio but when the audio ends on its own, there is no way to set the audio variable back to false so when the learner clicks on the audio button again, the variable is still set to true so it sets it to false and stops the audio (which was already stopped on it's own).I tried setting the setting a delayed action which would adjust the audio variable back to false after the delayed time that would

Hi,I have a Captivate 2019 serial number since that year I bought it.Now I just installed it on my Mac, run it, then a pop-up appears telling me I am under a 30-day trial period, or buy a license. But I have one. There's no place where I can introduce my serial once installed. Anyone knows how to attach this serial to my Captivate so I can run it in an unrestricted way? Thanks!! Ignacio 

Wow.  When I select "Image" from ther Add Media Blocks options I get TWO images.  Why?  Why?  If I try and hide one of the images off it hides both. Why?  I understand that for responsive design we have to template/widget everything ( are the days of truly custom designed training gone? ) but why can't I add one image on it's own?  Why?  

Hi All,I am running Captivate 12.6 and receive an error message "Something Went Wrong" every time I try to preview a project in Google Chrome. Initially, I was able to preview without difficulty and then this started happening. I have cleared the cache in my browser and Captivate, and still cannot preview. I would appreciate any ideas or solutions anyone may be able to provide. Thank you. *Screen Shot Below.  

I have a 4-module course that includes software simulations. I have to blur out personal information on the screens. On some modules, the blur area function works fine, but on other modules, it's hit or miss. I'm working my way through the SCORM output on my LMS on the 3rd module, and none of the blur areas are showing. I can't expose the personal information, and I've only been able to correct this on previous modules by downloading the background, blurring the info in Photoshop, and replacing the background with my correctly redacted version. I don't have time for this. Has anyone else come across this, and is there a solution?

I just downloaded Captivate, so I am on the 12.6 version. When it first opens, the Start Screen seems to be messing up. The menu bar (minimize and close button) is missing from the top screen and I can't drag and move the window around. My co-worker has the 12.4 version and she has the buttons and can move her screen. The attached image is from her computer and I have arrows pointing the area that is missing from mine.

Hello,In Adobe Captivate Version 12.6, I need to hide a few slides to see if I require them in the presentation.  In the past I was able to right-click and choose Hide Slide.  Now that option is no longer there.  Where can I find this?

Hi everyone,I’m facing a serious issue with Adobe Captivate Classic and I can’t seem to fix it.What happened:I made some changes in the Text Caption visual settings under the project’s publishing preferences. After that, Captivate stopped working properly.Here’s what’s going wrong:When I try to create a new blank project, nothing happens — the screen stays the same as if the button is not working.If I try to record a software simulation, it records fine, but when I try to publish or even preview it in HTML5, I get a publishing error.When I attempt to reset publishing preferences to default, Captivate crashes and closes by itself.What I’ve tried so far:Uninstalled and reinstalled Captivate.Used Revo Uninstaller to completely remove all files and registry entries before reinstalling.Unfortunately, after reinstalling, the exact same problem persists.Has anyone experienced something similar or knows how to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,I'm working with an e-learning module exported from Adobe Captivate (HTML5, fixed size 1920×1080). On desktop browsers, everything displays perfectly: the content fills the slide and all elements (including those near the right edge, like the “START” button or text) are visible.However, on mobile devices (Chrome and Edge, it's fine on Mozilla Firefox), the slide's right edge gets cut off — some content (e.g., the end of a long title or a button placed near the right side) is missing or hidden. This happens even if I try to patch all parent containers, canvases, and internal wrappers to 1926px width, and ensure overflow: visible everywhere. Still, only the first 1920px of the slide's content is rendered; the rest is not shown or is completely white.Details:The Captivate project was exported at 1920×1080.The problematic content is positioned close to the right edge of the slide.All attempts to force the container, canvas, and wrappers wider via JavaScript or CSS did

I purchased Captivate this evening. I received 2 emails; one with my receipt and one confirming my subscription. I received no Serial Number and no link for installation. When landing on the Captivate page, I'm asked to download a 30-day free trial. Please provide solution on how to download the most recent version for Mac.

Hi everyone,I’m trying to install and purchase Adobe Captivate, but I keep running into the same problem on both Mac and PC.I downloaded the available versions from Adobe’s official website (the new version and Captivate Classic), but when I try to activate or purchase the software, I’m redirected to:– Either a broken page,– Or the purchase page for Photoshop (which is unrelated).I’ve repeated the process on multiple machines and browsers — same issue every time.I’m wondering:- Has anyone else experienced this problem recently?- Is this a known issue at Adobe?- Is there any working version I can download (Captivate 2019, 11.5.5, etc.) while this is being fixed?- Is there a reliable way to purchase and activate the software?I would prefer to use Captivate on **Mac**, but I’ve tested on Windows too — same result.Thanks in advance for any guidance or workaround. Marc 

Hi Adobe Community,I’m using Adobe Captivate (latest version) to create a video-based SCORM 1.2 course that will be uploaded to SAP SuccessFactors. The course only contains a video — no quiz or interaction — and I need to ensure that learners must watch the entire video before the course is marked as complete.I’m a bit unsure about the correct tracking and reporting settings for this kind of project. Could anyone please share general guidance or best practices to ensure video completion is accurately tracked in this setup?Any tips from those who’ve done this before would be really appreciated.Thanks in advance,Kumaren Ramsamy
