Captivate

I’m working on a responsive project in Captivate and noticing that some text and images overlap on smaller screens.I’ve tried adjusting fluid boxes, but it still doesn’t scale smoothly.It works fine on desktop preview, but mobile gets messy.What’s the best way to keep layouts consistent across devices?

Does anyone know how we can use the new 'Julie' voice that has just been released by Neospeech?  Is there a way to add Julie to the text to speech drop down?  Right now I have Paul and Kate.Thanks in advance,WB

Hi, I’m piloting Adobe Captivate (version 12.6.0.63) on my Mac Pro M1 running macOS Sequoia 15.5 and running into issues saving projects. Every time I try to save, I get the spinning wheel and lose hours of work. Are there any troubleshooting tips or known fixes for this? Thanks in advance.

I am using the new Adobe Captivate 12.6.0.63 on my Mac with Sonoma 14.4.1On some slides I have added image status changes which are triggred by timeline bookmarks.On one slide e.g. each status change reveals more of the image (which is a process chart with 4 steps) while the narratior voice explains the process steps. In total there a 4 status changes for the image.However when I publish the course to SCORM and play it in a LMS or Scorm Cloud then you can seea short flash/flickering with each image status change. I am using pretty small png images, so the size can't be the reason. When I delete most of the slides and publish the course to SCORM with just 3-4 slides, then the image status changes do not cause a flash/flickering. I had also contacted the Captivate support, but they could not help me. The gave me the advice to rebuild the slides in a new course, which I did. However the flashes were the same.Anyone might have an idea what I can do?Best wishes and thank you Marc

I'm new to Captivate in general. I want to add a video progress bar/timeline so viewers know how long the video is and how far through the video they are. Think YouTube or any other video player. I don't necessarily want them to be able to skip ahead, but I want them to see their progress. For the life of me I can't figure out how to add this fuction, though I'm sure it's there.  All I see is basic play/pause and volume controls. 

I'm attempting to create a template in Captivate 12.6 that mimics one our team used in Captivate Classic. Previously, we made sure our monitors were scaled to 1920x1080 and the screen capture/project in Captivate was set to the same. Doing this allowed our users to interact with the Captivate without scrolling vertically or horizontally. We did notice "Create Scalable HTML" was a helpful tool with that.Now, with the new Captivate, I've played around with Using the Fullscreen, Application Window, and creating a Custom size, and in every scenario, when I preview it I have to scroll a little. When I upload it to our LMS I have to scroll a lot. I can use CTRL + and - to zoom in and out, but I can't ask that of every user completing training. Do I need to adjust my project size? Or change the display from fixed to proportional? This is also impacting whether or not the closed captions appear on the slide or off of it. 

On my slides, the text captions look perfectly aligned in edit mode, but once I preview or publish, some of them shift slightly up or down. Has anyone else noticed this? Wondering if it’s a font/rendering issue or something I can fix in settings.

I have a slide that uses the "introduction slide single option 1" format, with text and an image side by side. I've set the image display to fit and the image focus to center. The image displays fine in ScormCloud in Chrome but is moved to the right in Safari.Chrome Safari Any ideas on how to fix this?

I am using Captivate 7.  In 2006 I created many files using an earlier version Captivate that saved the project with .cp extension name.  I need to fix several .cp  projects.  Any I ideas?Anne

I'm a creative cloud user and just downloaded the captivate free trial. It keeps freezing and crashing and is unusable. I have a brand new Mac that is updated and says it's compatible.  i tried every suggestion I could find on these message boards and online. NOTHING is working. Even if I get it to open and begin working I can add one word to a slide and when I go to save it freezes my entire computer and I have to manually restart.  i also found adobe support is practically non existent and their AI chat bot is worse than useless. does anyone have a magic secret for getting captivate to function?  Please oh please I have spent my entire evening just trying to get this to work. 

Hi, I’m new to Captivate. I lead an eLearning team for a software company and I am looking to switch my team over to this authoring tool. I am attending the Adobe conference in Las Vegas next week. I’ve been trying to complete my pre-certification course, but I am unable to save any progress. I have the latest version of Captivate: 12.4.0.20I am on a MacBook Pro, M3 Pro Chip, Sonoma 14.7 OS If I open any Captivate file, I can edit it, build slides, do whatever I want within the application. But when I go to save the file, I just get a blue spinning wheel forever. If I “right-click -> quit”, the application does not quit. It’s just frozen. I have to go to my Mac force quit operator and force quit the app.I jumped on with an Adobe support agent who even did a remote screen share. He poked around, deleted and reinstalled Captivate, even attempted to change some root permissions which I think he was prohibited from because this laptop is a company laptop. He thought it may hav

Hello!I'm attempting to create a quiz question with custom feedback based on this video from Paul Wilson: Adobe Captivate Custom Question Slides with Personalized Feedback for Each AnswerEverything works the first time through and I set it up so at the end there is a screen that says they got X/4 correct or incorrect.The issue I'm running into is if they got below the passing score and need to repeat it seems like the variables won't reset? If the learner doesn't pass and then need to retake the quiz I have a 'exit slide' variable to reset the score variable to zero. It's set up for each correct answer is 1 point and an incorrect answer is 0 points. But when I test this in preview the variable never resets to zero when I try to go back and take the quiz.My best guess for why this is occuring is that the variables are linked to the radio buttons and there isn't a way to reset the radio button. This is the only explanation I can come up with. Can anyone think of another way to

Hi there, I'm encountering a pretty significant bug in Captivate 12 that could cause major issues in one of my projects. And yes I am using the most recent version of Captivate 12, and working from a local drive.My course uses the header for displaying the course title, as well as having a hamburger icon in the top right representing the TOC that the user can toggle on and off with instead of using the playbar.However, my course has become quite large (127 slides long, 493 Mb) and I noticed that for some reason the icon in the header is no longer visible... it is there, but it is acting like the color has changed on the icon. When I go to select icon to change the color, the program crashes and says "An unexpected error has occured, which may cause Captivate to behave unexpectedly. You can restart Caaptivate with Backed-up project." However, even starting it up with a backed up project, this error still occurs. It lets me change the text and solid fill, but any time I touched 'icon' it

Hello Again Captivate Community,I am back here again pleading for a Hail Mary with my project.  Hopefully I can explain it clearly.  This is regarding the 'new' (no longer new really ;)) Adobe Captivate.  I am using Version 12.2 because at the time of the 12.3 release, my project files became buggy and non-functional.  As a result of this experience, I am insanely hesistant about upgrading to version 12.3 until I finish this massive project (34 'e-Learning modules or 'episodes' in total) and release it.  Perhaps 12.3 has this solution to my problem.  My project has both pre-built question slides (programmed as graded quizzes) and custom slides that I created.  These pre-builts are not all located within one section in this e-Learning course.  They are broken up and interspersed with some custom slides I created.  This feature (this design) of the project is greatly desired; I am trying my best to work within those parameters.  This

I have an Adobe Captivate 12.6 - Matching slide with 4 options and 4 answers.When the learner first arrives at this slide, if they click submit, the ( Incomplete Flag triggers ) and they see the Incomplete Message  which indicates they need to answer the question before continuing. The problem is if the learner fills out one of the four options, and clicks submit without filling out the remaining options, they will get the incorrect Flag since the answer is wrong. Is there a way to keep showing the Incomplete message until all options have been filled out?Basically, forcing the learner to fill out the question requirements entirely before submitting.

Bonjour,Je suis sur la création d'une simulation logicielle avec Captivate 12.6 sur Mac, j'ai créé des zones de flou sur les diapositives pour masquer des données sensibles. Lorsque je lance l'apercu pour tester, les zones de flous ne sont pas visibles, et je recherche désepérement comment les activer ! Estce que quelqu'un aurait une solution ? Par avance merci pour vos retours

Quick question — when I publish a Captivate project as HTML5, the audio sync seems slightly off compared to what I see in preview. Has anyone run into this and found an easy fix?

I'd like to have a quiz at the beginning of my course which, if passed, will just send the learner to the completion page and let them skip the course content. If failed, they would need to view the course content.Is this possible in Captivate 12.6?Thanks!

When I insert an MP4 video into Captivate, the playback looks noticeably lower quality than the original file. I’ve checked the size and format, but it still seems compressed after publishing. Is there a way to keep the video quality closer to the source?

We want to change the question feedback based on the answer the learner provides. If the question is: what is one of the forbidden spells in Harry Potter?PatronusLeviosaLeviosahAvada Kedavra We would want the feedback to say: "This spell summons a magical guardian" when they answer "Patronus," but "This spell levitates objects" when they answer "Leviosah" and "This spell doesn't do much of anything" when they answer "Leviosa." How would we do this?

Hi,While using AI voices in Adobe All-New Captivate v 12.6.0.63, certain terms are not pronounced correctly.How to correct the pronounciation? Please advise.

Hi,I am using AI voices in Adobe All-New Captivate v 12.6.0.63 for training purposes.To sync audio with the animation, how do I add pause and break in the AI voices generated audio?Please help! The VTML tags were helpful in Adobe Classic; I am not finding the option to use the same in All-New Captivate. Your guidance would be greatly appreciated. 

I have created a 42-slide training module with 15 question slides on a Windows 11 machine and updated Captivate to 12.3.0.12. When I preview the training and publish it, I get a blank white screen on load. The first slide contains an opening video. During the creation, the preview worked fine. I see responses to similar issues, but the results are not relevant, given the age of the issue.   When I attempted to update Captivate, it failed at 96%, so I backed-up my files and uninstalled the platform, then installed the latest version.  The results are the same, with the latest update installed.

Has anyone developed SCORM courses for Dayforce? We are having issues with our SCORM packages that worked fine in Workday. There is no option for opening in a new window, so we're playing with the best size to develop. We're also having issues with completions and launching a second lesson. Just curious if anyone has worked with Dayforce as an LMS and has some best practices. Thanks.

Has this bug been resolved:  Bug No: CAP-4206343
