Adding Animation Slide to Software Simulation

Captivate 9

Recording: Software Simulation

Delivery Method: MP4

Hi All,

I wonder if anyone can help/sanity check my plan here.

I'm creating Software Simulations recording a long process using an Analytics S/W Tool.

I need a Software Simulation to add callouts, highlight boxes etc.

The Software has some nice animations on the graph when you drill down on data. Kinda like a progress bar.

You can see a snip of the effect here: Craig Clarke - Analytics Sample

This animation effect is not picked up when recording the 'Software Simulation' in captivate.

So first question. Am I right in thinking you cannot pick this up when recording a Software Simulation, even by changing settings?

And second question, if above is correct, is my best approach to insert CPVC slides in my Software Simulation wherever this animation is displayed?

Many thanks

Craig

You will need to record those animations using the video capture. So in Captivate, click the Slides and choose "Video Demo" to record a full motion video of the animations.

Cheers... Rick

OK thanks for confirmation.

Looks like a mix and match approach will work.

Cheers and thank you for quick response!
