All answers below are for Captivate 2.0

The trick is to tell the global project to close at the end.
Select Project -- Preferences
Notice that there is a drop-down for Project End Options
Select -- Close project

Note that the Quiz summary MUST come immediately after the final quiz. If you were to add another slide after the Quiz, but before the summary, it can lead to errors in the quiz or navigation.

Also look at Project -- Quiz Manager and take a look at the option on the Quiz Settings and Pass or Fail tabs

PERFORMANCE ISSUES: This should have been another thread. But to try to answer that question. I have posted and rposted some tips about file size. Pleae do a search on file size.

Look at the following:
Set the default for each slide to be Standard quality unless you have photographs or some other image that needs more quality.

For audio, the MP3 settings are interesting to play with. MP3 takes advantage of what the ear can't hear in transitions of sound. But spoken narration is not too demanding and you can easily turn-down the settings. Try thr Audio Option and set it for FM Radio Quality at 11 or 22 Hz.. Play around a bit and you will see that there is a point where it doesn't matter for voice. MP3 can capture from almost 0 HZ to about 20,000HZ and the range of voice is not anywhere near those outer limits. Experiment and you'll see that you can tweak it down with good results.

Are you recording the mouse as a movie? There is an option to capture the screen motion (and mouse motion) or not. Look at Options -- Recording Options and note that there are quality options for Full Motion Recording. the only one that I check is Disable hardware acceleration. The others are off. Be sure that you are at 16K colors and NOT 32 K colors on that screen.

Full motion is fine for video capture, but do you really need that on screen snaps? The moue movement is smoothe enough in Captivate.

Finally - Do you need 30 frames per second? This can be turned down to 20 - 22 frames per second in many cases and still give great results. Project -- Preferences -- Preferences Tab.

Do an experiment - record your way. Read one minute of a newspaper article and capture 10 screens while you do that. Look at the size. then make the changes above and look at the size (and quality) again. Should be a big difference.

Sorry, I have no idea about the file size. I have a ridiculously huge hard drive so I just don't worry about it much. Glad to hear you've got a work-around!

flying_scott,

I usually just go into edit mode and delete it. You're right about there not being an option to remove it in the manager, though. Let me know how it goes!
