Captivate v5.5

A work colleague using v5.5 is unable to move the start point of the mouse pointer trail they add to a slide using Insert/Standard Object/Mouse or the insert mouse tool bar.

They can move the pointer end to place they want it to finish but unable to grab and drop the start point and place it where they want the mouse to start from.

I have tried it on my v5.5 and it works OK for me.

Any ideas please as to what she needs to do - or why this might be ?

    In reply to my own post - in case anyone else has the same problem.

    The above was resolved by clearing the cache. Simple as that.

    Hi Noel,

    If you are using mouse pointers in more that one slide, then the end point of the mouse pointer on the first slide, becomes the start point on the second and so on.

    This is done to keep the continuation of the mouse pointer across the slides.

    Hi AdityaKalania,

    Thanks for that bit of information - I did not know that and it is good to know.

    Thanks again.
