Drawing the lines for a box motion path

When creating a responsive project, I would like to know if there is a motion path to draw the lines around the box, instead of circling text.

Basically when guiding a user to click on a box during a demonstration, I would like the usual static highlight box, to have a motion path drawing around the highlight box to emphasise that is the option to select. There doesn't appear to be that option. At the moment our company is exporting the produced videos out of Captivate and into another application and editing the video to get that effect.

Does anyone know how?

Thanks 🙂

Thanks everyone for your feedback. I have tried the Camtasia option before. Hopefully there will be an enhancement in the next version.

That's not likely to happen unless MANY Captivate users requested such an enhancement. So mentioning it here on the user forum won't help. You (and anyone else you can drag in) need to log an enhancement request.

You want probably the effect that Video Express and Camtasia have? You could use the circular motion path (or a custom curved motion path) but need an object to apply that effect. It will not look like a circle to be drawn, what did you want exactly? Has it really to be a drawn circle? Maybe flickering?
