Question

Copy and paste text from text entry box or other ideas?

Hi, I'm trying to figure out how I can have a user copy text from within Captivate. I know I can launch a document with the text in it, but does anyone know of a way to do this by not launching a separate document?

I've tried using a text entry box and I can get it to work but it doesn't allow formatting in the Default Text field (using returns, etc.) so it appears on one line on the slide. This is an SQL script I want them to copy so I'd like to have it formatted the way they need to use it. I'm in Captivate 8 and will publish to HTML5 as my final product.

Thanks!

    Can't you create the script as a HTML or text file and open it in a popup window?

    Copy the following script:
    

    SELECT * From...

    Hi and thank you for your reply!

    I can, but I was trying to avoid opening up an additional popup window.
