Question

Apply all won't apply all

I resized my project and rescaled the objects, highlights, and text boxes. Now my font sizes are all over the place. Some fonts in my captions are 10pt, some font sizes are 9pt. I need everything to be 10pt. When i go to apply to all Caption types, only the properties that changed, it only changes the one caption. Any help for Chicago in Va?

I am using Captivate 4

    Hi there

    I'm not sure this function works for Font sizing. For what it's worth, I've always known the Apply to All feature to be a bit on the sketchy "hit and miss" side. Actually, I believe this is largely the reason for what I'm about to suggest.

    If you are trying to influence a change overall, I might suggest investigating using the Design Template feature of Captivate. Basically, you click File > New > Project, click the Create tab and choose Design Template. You then get to configure different objects.

    Save that and re-open your project. Now you apply the template by editing a slide (for some reason Edit view must be present - you can't get there from Storyboard view). Click Window > Design Template to view the panel listing the design templates. Select your template (it should already be in the list) then choose the appropriate action (Apply or Apply or Apply All.

    Cheers... Rick
