I have used many different versions of Captivate in the past and have now just started using Captivate 6. I am trying to find all the different types of bullet points and highlight boxes that I used to use and I can locate them in Captivate 6. What am I missing? Can someone tell me where to locate these? I just see the standard highlight box now.

Thanks for your help.

    Hello,

    I'm a bit puzzled, having used Captivate since version 1 but always had only one type of highlight box. Or are you referring to different stroke, fill for the Highlight box? You can create as many highlight box styles as you wish in the Object Style Manager and apply such a style, or else change them individually using the Properties panel. And you have a lot more now, I show in the screenshot also the Shadow and Reflection accordion. This highlight box has a style that I created with the OSM

    As for the bullets, I suppose you refer to text formatting in Text Captions or in Smart Shapes? Again, you need the Properties panel, accordion Format and you'll find a lot more there than just bullets: margins, aligning...

    Thanks for the quick reply. The bullet points and highlights I'm referring to are the animated bullet points (ex: the orange glass bullet point), animated directional arrows (the green flashing arrow), and animated highlights (ex: red line, orange circle, red oval, etc). Where are these?

    They are still in the same location: Gallery\SWF Animation

    And you insert them the same way as well: Insert, Animation.
