Captivate

I created custom closed captioining with an advanced action and it worked properly.Upon start the CC would not show. If learner wanted to view CC and clicked button it would show. Then I added and removed the Captivate Menu/ Table of Contents.From there the CC starts automatically and I can not get it to hide upon start of course, like above. I tried to copy and paste the entrire cousre into a blank course.Though the course copied over, the problem remained.Maybe someone here can see something I am not doing correctly.Advanced action uploaded (please ignore that the tab is called mute/ unmute).Thanks in advance! 

I'm working with multiple png files to build up a scene; however, try as I might, Captivate isn't giving me the image sharpness required.I'm importing the png files at precisely the correct pixel dimensions, no scaling up or down required once in Captivate. I'm also working with shapes, but the shapes I create using the Captivate tools are not the clean, crisp, super sharp shapes created in Illustrator or PowerPoint. I'm new to Captivate (using trial version), so I think I'm missing something basic here, but what? Set up:Captivate 2019 (trial)iMac Retina 4K running Ventura 13.2.1

Hello! I have a video that has a transparent background that I am trying to get into captivate. but it is telling me that the file isn't supported.  Research says I need to do an FLV file but media encoder doesn't allow that anymore?? Anyone know how I can import a QuickTime video with a transparent background? The transparent background is key here!!

Hello everyone,I know this question has often been asked, but is it possible to matter in a transparent video in Captivate? I found tutorials showing that, but it was on the old version of Captivate and especially with a .flv file, but now it is no longer possible to export this way on After Effect, therefore I am forced to use a "Quicktime" file.There is any alternative ?Thank you

Any help on this is appreciated.I have a Captivate project that needs to have 4 slides with videos separated with a quiz question (that is acting as a 'save point') in case the project is closed and the viewer doesn't have to start from the beginning. When I preview the project, I am able to view each slide with it's following quiz question all the way through without any problem. But when I click the "rewind" button on the toolbar, so the viewer can watch the content again, I can make it to the first video and quiz question, but when I try to advance past that first question, it sends me to the second question, then third, then fourth. I am unable to view the other three videos that are on separate slides. Does anyone know why that 'advance' button during reviewing is skipping the last three slides with videos and how I can get it to just review the entire project again? Thank you!

HiI have added interactive buttons to slides in Captivate but these are not working when publishing to video. Can you please give me a heads up if this is possible and how to do it? Thanks so much

Hello every onei have macOS system montery and when i install Captivate 2019  This problem occurs and that. I can't find a solution for itWhile installing the 2019 release of Captivate, the following error message displays: I found a solution to this problem in this link: (https://helpx.adobe.com/mena_en/captivate/kb/error-183-installing-captivate-2019.html)But for the Windows system and I want to know the correct way for the Mac systemThx 

I am simply trying to copy and paste an object from one slide into a 360 slide. I am fairly tech saavy, yet this simple function is beyond me. I also cannot upload assets (buttons) that I can paste into slides...so how do you insert consistent custom buttons in a project? In canva, I can go to a panel and clieck on what I want to insert, for example. I should be able to upload images (buttons) to use throughout the project, particularly if I can't just copy and paste them into another slide. 

Can anyone describe the difference between these 2 offerings?Many thanks.

Anyone else come across an issue where Captivate crashes when trying to add a bookmark?   I've been able to add the bookmark here but I'm now unable to move in the timeline or to another slide without the software having a meltdown.  If I click the trash icon, my bookmark is removed and I can navigate around the software okay again, as if when I add the bookmark, the software stops responding.  Appreciate any support with this,  Thanks, Paul 🙂    

 I want to develop pods for use in our online classrooms we host through Adobe connect. I know that the pods you can load in can pull information from Adobe connect. The booster game pulls peoples names. The activity tracker pulls people's inactivity. I would like to know what all public variables are there that we can access and have a published course pull so I can brainstorm pod activities that we can use.

I understand in SCORM 2004 that being able to specify completion and success criteria separately means that I can set a course so that it can be marked as completed unsuccessfully if a user has taken it but had 'deferred success' (i.e. failed ) based on slide views and/or the quiz status. It helps the instructor to distinguish completion from comprehension/superficial from deep engagement (assuming the quiz is suitably searching).I assume therefore that if I am creating a course that does not have a quiz but I want to report if it has been completed or not I only need to set the completion criteria in CP9. Is that correct, or should I set the completion and success criteria to be the same (i.e. x% slide views)? It might not make much difference but I would like to know what is best practice.TIA

Hi. Captivate 2019 still has the ability to create Rollover Images, but I can't save the file as an HTML because this is considered swf functionality. What can I use instead? Thanks.

Hi We are captivated subscribers but I just heard on a webinar that there is an opportunity to get early access to project charm.  Can someone send me a link to hoe? Cheers Ken

Hello, I am using a dummy course in Captivate and posting to an LMS. I am using Scorm 2004 2nd ed. If the user clicks the LMSs Next Lesson button before the current sco is complete, they get a LMS communication error. In the Browsers Developer tools all I get after is cannot communicate with the LMS. Does anyone know of a workaround or solution?* I don't think it's a Captivate issue, because I've seen it happen with other courses.

I am using Adobe Captivate 2019 and have insertted YouTube videos into my presentation. When exported as a SCORM files, these videos will not play in Google Chrome. However, I tested them in FireFox and they play just fine. Any possible remedies to this?

I'm trying to use the "Send for Shared Review" option under "File" to share files using my internal server. When I click the check box to send an email and proceed using the "email" button it *looks* like it works, but I don't receive the email (I used a couple of my own addresses to test it out). I have my email address in the General Settings under Project Info, so it shouldn't be because of that. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

I have a bulleted list where one of the lines of text is a different color than the rest. This changes the bullet color to match the text. How do I make it so the bullet is black like the rest, but the text is green?

I have Captivate 11.5 and just started using the Creative Cloud to work with the videos. I just got my PC upgraded to Windows 11.I added closed captions to a video in Premiere. The video is over 2 hours long.I need to create a SCORM with that video.  I went to Captivate and created a 5 slide course.  The last slide is the video.Problem: I tried adding the video using the Event Video and the Slide Video.  Either way, when I preview the slide it does not show up.I made sure the last slide was the length of the video. The video is set to Autoplay. With the Pause Slide until the end of the video, I've tried it both ways (checked and unchecked).I've read some hints that said to publish it but i get an error saying the file is not found. The link shown adds extra stuff to the path ((path to video)\vr\Vi1.mp4)When I added the Creative Cloud, the Media Encoder upgraded to the latest version. Could that be causing the problem? Can I have more than 1 Media Encoder?Any help will be

I'm new to Captivate and am at a new job. My supervisor has asked me to use Reviewer to share my Captivate files so she can see what they look like when the learner takes a course. Looks like Adobe Reviewer (Adobe Air?) was transitioned over from Adobe to another company (see here: https://blog.adobe.com/en/publish/2019/05/30/the-future-of-adobe-air). Before I spend any more time than I already have trying to install it, can people even still use Reviewer/Adobe Air to review Captivate files, or is it now outdated? I believe it has been a while since my team used it. Thanks in advance!

Hi All,I have a button on a slide with an advanced action attached. I would like to trigger this button when entering the slide i.e. the button automatically gets clicked on slide entry if conditions are met (As advanced actions attached to "On Enter"). I have used cpExtra xcmndCallActionOn but it is not working as attached.

Hi, My global organisation is creating web based trainings which I'm not sure I like the format of from a pedagogic point of view. (see screenshot)I need some arguments not only from what I think but from what fellow learning professionals think. Is there a forum or group of people where I can discuss this?Or maybe I can get your input in this thread? Basically, what is the best way to learn: from this kind of vertical format with all the information in one "page" or with a traditional format, page by page?   

Hi, I am about to loosing it.I can't drag the handle on the text caption box in a fluid box. I just mark the fluid box. I can't get hold of the handle to resize the text box.How hard can it be??? 

Hi, the answer in my previous Discussion worked fine with a simple calculation (3 buttons), so I tried the same with 4 buttons. However, I failed... The variables for the 4 buttons have the value "1".Each button has an advanced action to change state and variable, I have added the screenshot of the advanced action für button "Druck_TF". There are many right answers:A x B = C x DorB x A = D x CorC x D = A x B... If the 4 states of the 4 buttons would set the variables correctly, and the "Senden"-Button would calculate properly, both sides of the "=" should be equal to "5" (1+4 or 2+3). Any idea what I got wrong? Thanks a lot for your help! PS: Maybe I should not have asked this within the old discussion, as it is already marked "solved".
