Hello community,

I currently upload my Captivate course as na HTML in a moodle platform, as a file resource, so when the user access it, the course uses a pop up scalabe window.

I've put a PDF in my course for download, say in slide 8 of 12. So that my student can keep it for him in his computer for later studies.

The PDF is opening correctly BUT, instead of using a pop up window, it takes the Course window, forcing the student to leave it.

Anyone knows how to fix this? At the moment I've moved it to my final slide, but that's not my desired outcome.

Yes I found it a little later.

Thanks again Lilybiri!

Just sharing a bit about the case:

It worked. but the actual course window is minimized and the PDF opened in a new tab of my Moodle browser window. Not really an issue, I was just worried students that are not familiarized with computers would'nt notice the course being minimized. I've added a narration clarifying it.

Hi Gustavo and Lilybiri,

I would like my course to do something similar. The user clicks on a button and a url opens on a new IE window. Why have you checked Continue Playing the Project? I have not been able to see the opened page when I publish my course. Is that because it needs to be housed on a web server?

Thanks!
