Captivate 7: Can we force closed captions to be on?

Hi,

I need to have the closed captions turn on automatically throughout the lesson.

Is there a way to do this?

I found posts and a widget for Cap 5.5, but I need the feature for Cap 7.

thanks a bunch!

You must be a noob at Google too.  I just typed in cpcmndcc and found this link in a couple of seconds:

You can use an On Slide Enter event at any point in the lesson to assign the value of the System Variable cpCmndCC to 1.  This will SHOW the CC text.  Set it to 0 to hide CC text again.

If you want 300 more troubleshooting tips for Cp, you'll need to read the book:

Hi RodWard,

thanks for your reply.

As I am a noob, I don't know how to do what you wrote. I tried for a while, Googled and used Youtube, but couldn't figure it out.

Would you be so kind as to provide a step-by-step procedure?

Karma beers in it for you

cheers!
