Hi,

I know this has been covered and I searched the posts. Maybe I am not understanding the variables correctly. What I need to do is control the numbering of slides. Let's say I have 100 slides, but I don't want to number them 1-100. I want to number them 301-400 etc. Is there a way to create an expression that will do this in captivate? I am using 6 by the way.

    You'll need a user variable, v_slide, that will get its value using an

    advanced action On Enter for each slide:

    Expression v_slide = cpInfoCurrentSlide + 300

    Continue

    This script will add 300 to the original slide number, you can change it to

    any number. Continue is necessary to release play head.

    Then you will have to insert this user variable in a text caption or a

    shape, which you display for the rest of the project, always on top.
