Question

How do I get a PPT slide to build at precise times with out using the mouse?

Here is what I am attempting to do. I have imported a PPT presentation into Captivate v4. I have already recorded the audio that I need for each slide. A couple of the slides need to build during the narration at specific points to coincide with the audio. I want to be able to do this without the end user having to click in order to advance as eventually I will publish this as avi file.

Does any one know how to do this?

Thnaks in advance.

You can do all the work for your presentation in ppt including the audio. Sync it with your animations and import into CP4.

p.s: There are better alternatives if your published format is .avi or any other video type.

Thanks. But I am having issues in the PPT slide build which is not syncing with the audio. It has 4 items in the slide that need to build, how can I have those 4 items build so that they sync with the audio. I need to do all of this before I export to an avi file.

Then it is not a CP4 question. However, if ppt doesn't do what you need done and assuming you have separate audio files for your animations, import your ppt into CP4 and sync the audio files on the timeline.
