Adding animated cartoon characters in Captivate 5

Does anyone know if it is possible add animated cartoon characters into Captivate 5.0? I've done some investigation and believe this can be done using a character builder (detailed on www.mediasemantics.com). I'm fairly new to Captivate so would appreciate any advice on how to add this type of animation and any problems anyone has encountered do this.

Thanks

Hi there

Unless things have changed, I believe CharacterBuilder creates the Flash Characters using ActionScript 2. Captivate 5 uses ActionScript 3 exclusively so that's an issue. Whatever cartoon character creation app you find, ensure it creates ActionScript 3 output.

That's really helpful Rick, thanks. If you have any other advice or tips on adding characters it would welcomed, as i'm working on my first Captivate project and it's a lot to take in. I'm sure i'll come across some other hurdles before i get it published!
