Captivate 8: Text Caption Boxes: Automatic Placement is centered and beneath everything - impossible to grab and replace
Today's frustration brought to me via Captivate: I need to place a text caption box on my slide - but every time I try to place one, it automatically goes in the center of the slide, beneath every single thing I've already placed on the slide, and the only way to grab the text box is to move every single thing that's on top of it out of the way. This is the most frustratingly stupid thing! I know I'm venting, excuse me, I'm THAT frustrated. I don't want to move everything - this text caption thing was a last-minute, "can you please place text here" request, and even though I lock everything down, I STILL cannot grab that text box and move it unless I remove everything on top of it. If I could come face to face with Adobe's programmers, I'd ask them why they see fit to make something so easy, so darn complicated?! The text box should not default to the center of the slide, beneath every single thing that is on that slide - it should default to a top position so you can move it without problems. Is there any way to command Captivate to not put the text box in the center, back of the slide? Or a way to place a text box ANYWHERE but in the center of the slide beneath everything?
