Question

image lags...dirty back ground!!!!

Hi All,

I have been experiencing some odd results when playing some of the simulated slides, there seems to be no pattern to this or perhaps i am missing something. Here is whart happens:

From within captivate I hit F10 to play the next few slides, what I get after a couple f slides is dirty backgrownd (actually image lags from previous slides), I can not get rid of these. The F12 plays in browser are the same so is F4.

This only happens now and then and i am not sure how but it does go away sometimes when I play them on another machine.

I am using Captivate 6.0.1, Flash 11, Explorer 9.

Any help or if you have experienced this I really could do with knowing about it and indeed if you figured out what causes this intermitting annoyance....

Kind regards

    Thank you.... I was told to go JPEG, but I will try High and Optimised and let you know.

    Just for interest sake, try Optimised and then publish completely with Force Republish All Slides on.  Then write down the total filesize of the published SWF.

    Then do the same with all slides set to High 24 bit.  In just about every case where I have tested this, High 24bit comes out to a lower filesize in the published SWF than does Optimised.  But I'm interested to hear what other people find in their circumstance.  If everyone tends to find Optimised ends up slightly higher than High, I'm wondering what the advantage is.

    I have tested the High and Optimised, Optimised comes out a little bigger but not massively. The High seems to have behaved so far and no image lags yet.......

    Hi

    The "image lag" is due to the image quality. Go to slide properties and change the quality to "Optimized" or "High".

    And to add to Sreekanth's advice, you are best to only make judgements on final quality when you publish out completely using the Force Republish All Slides option.
