Question

Highlight, Fill Outer Area and Text Caption

I have a demonstration movie in Captivate 2. In one of my slides, I want to highlight a particular area while graying out the rest of the slide. Easy enough to do. But, while the rest of the area is grayed out (and one area is highlighted), I want a text caption to play the same amount of time as the highlight area. As soon as I gray out the rest of the slide, the text caption is, of course, grayed out, too. Is there a way to keep the text caption NOT grayed out? Thanks.

Perfect, Rick - I suspected there was an easy way to do - just wasn't seeing it. Thanks so much.

Hi JBelcher

This one is simple. Look at your Timeline. The Highlight Box is above the Caption. Click and drag it down until it is below the Caption on the Timeline. In other words, the Highlight Box is in front of the Caption. Another way would be to right-click the Caption and bring it to the front or bring it forward until it is in front of the Highlight box.

Cheers... Rick
