Question

Drop-down lists, scrolling and IE 7 issue?

I was using Captivate 3 prior to my work upgrading to Internet Explorer 7 and had no issues with capturing scrolling within a webpage and chosing an option on a drop-down list. I just recently started working on a new project and using IE 7.

I went through my steps on using a drop-down list and scrolling through it to find an option. However, when I went in to edit the demonstration, the slide that showed the "selection" put the correct selection in the caption - however, the slide background image had somehow reverted the drop-down list to the top of the list rather than in the middle where the selection would have taken place.

Has anyone else seen this?

I went back did the same steps - but this time, I made sure to take an extra shot prior to clicking the option - so I had the correct screen showing for the lesson.

Anyone else have any other issues going on with IE 7 and Captivate 3 that I should be aware of?

Thanks.

    I have only been using Captivate for about a month now, but that is how it has always behaved for me...When you click and drag it starts the "Full Motion Recording". I have had mixed results with full motion so far. Scrolling up and down and zooming in and out of a page have been problematic. You can change these options, or turn off the full motion all together.
    Edit--Preferences--Recording--Full Motion Recording.

    BTW, I am using IE7 on a Vista machine so I cannot speak to the functionality prior to IE7.
