Question

Captivate 9 - project resolution and multiscreen

I need to create a software simulation based on a software running in multi-screen mode (3 monitors with the resolution 1920px*1080px). The application is a web-based application running in full screen mode on the 3 monitors (one browser window).

The recording on 3 screens is correctly realized but the resolution limit of a project captivate (3200px) prevents me from editing and publishing the recorded project. Is there a means to increase the maximal resolution of a project ?

The result of the publication will be used in full-screen mode on the same environment ( 3 screens).

    Hi MrHugues,

    Interesting question. So are you trying to have it render and display on all three monitors in playback or do you mean that the file is so big it won't let you edit it at all?

    Cheers

    Hi Steve,

    I try to have it render and display on all three monitors. The final screen configuration is  5760*1080 on three monitors. The captivate project file cannot be edited because part of the recording screen is out of the working area.

    Hi Hugues,

    I can't say for sure,  but I suspect that would be Captivates hard limit. No one probably envisioned a three monitor aspect ratio being heavily used so they didn't code for it. Maybe someone else, perhaps from Adobe can confirm?

    Cheers
