Questions

Dear all, I have made a slide with fluid boxes and have set up on some buttons on it.  I have then made copies of my slides as I want them all to look the same.  Now I am finding that if I put a text box on slide 1 it is copying to every other side and I can get rid of them unless I deleat the box on slide 1. dont know why.  I created several projects now and cant see I have done anything different to what I have done before.

 Is there any way to add 2 drag sources such as  A1 , A2  and 6 Drop Sources sush as B1,B2 and C1,C2 and D1,D2 in single slide which perform 3 drag and drop activities ?

Found directions on how to clear adobe captivate cache from within the application. My question now is: How can I delete (or relocate without risking program behavior or functionality when projects are re-opened) the memory consuming "Adobe Captivate Cached Projects" folder contents from my PC without ruining the impact/look/feel/function of my existing created and in -progress Cp9 projects? Please help!

Hi, I am trying to import PowerPoint slides into Captivate for mac. However, after converting the slides Captivate crashes and stops working. This is the first time I use Captivate. It is a corporate license but I don't have admin rights.

Hello Captivate Community. I have build a elearning presentation by importing a provided PPT by my client. Everything works perfect and its almost ready to ship. The only issue i have is: when the user clicks anywhere on the slide, the slide advances. I want to disable that function. I have built custom navigation for the user, with back and forward arrows. How can i disable the click-to-continue function?

Hello, I have created a SCORM file with these settings:I publisged it as HTML5 (as SWF is not supported due to Flash) and uploaded on our LMS. A user told me that after the "video" was completed he could not proceed to the next page. I uploaded the file to SCORM Cloud and notice that even though I had completed all the questions and watched the whole file, the status was still as "incomplete". I guess this is the reason that the user could not proceed to the next page in the course. How can I correct the SCORM file? I am not sure what to look for? Thank you in advance! PS. I found this similar case but did not help me: https://community.adobe.com/t5/captivate-discussions/marking-incomplete/m-p/1778833#M48167 

Hello, Here is the situation I am in: I have a course in English but would like to translate to 3 more languages and give the user the possibility to select a preferred language. There is a quiz in the end of the course so the scores should be recorded only for the language selected. There are many interactions done with multi-state objects and there are audio files also.What I am thinking to do is taking my English file as a Master file and creating 3 more separate outputs each in a different language just same as the master file but.. how do I relate them into one file to be uploaded in the LMS? I saw some ideas to intervene in the imsmanifest and metadata files but I am not familiar with coding. Is there any other way or this is the only way?  The LMS is not sufficient enough to select a language by itself.

Hello! We had a company translate several of our courses in to eight different lanquages. We are no longer working with the company, so I am unable to ask them.  They added subtitles to several videos in the courses. I need to change the color of the subtitle so it is visible over parts of the video, but I am unable to determine how or where the subtitles were added. Nothing shows up in the timeline. I exported the video to Premier Pro but the subtitles don't seem to be there (I am barely a newby in Premier Pro). Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Thanks -Kris Beisel

Hi, myself and 2 of my colleagues are experiencing the same issues. In the last 2 months, we constantly get the Update Required message. Every time we will update our operating systems, browser, and download the Captivate updates and install these. But then a month later Captivate will stop working again unless we update. One of my colleagues updated everything and Captivate still doesn't want to work. Any ideas why this keeps happening?  

Hi, I lost the original files of a scorm created on Captivate. I exported the zip files from the LMS platform I m using. I d like to convert them into html5 and/or actualize them on Captivate. Does someone know how to do it?

Hi all,I did research the answer to this question but could not find the simple solution I looked for (always a bad sign...).Here goes, I have a drag and drop interaction with learners having to place countries in certain boxes (it is on a scale from high to low showing a certain propensity for something).I want to show a hint after 2 wrong tries.This I would do using states in a text box (normal = invisible, first state = hint)So, in order to switch to the "Hint state" I need to track number of attempts.I thought I could just use an AA to increment a variable by 1 for each attempt. But for that I need that number.All solutions seem to have to do with an AA for each objects being dragged. But I have 5 drag sources and targets.There has to be another way to track attempts, no?Thanks for your help!

Hi all,I am new to using Captivate and trying to learn it by myself. So, still in the infant stage. I have attached a screenshot where I am stuck.So, the Gray Shape is not being visible when am clicking the Red buttons although I have provided the following action - Here, highlight_1 is the button name. When am using the Preview, the screen is coming without the Gray Shape. When am clicking the Red buttons, still nothing. I have tried placing the Gray Shape in the timeline above or below the red buttons but still not showing. Please help.  

Hi I'm deeply concerned that a Captivate breakpoint project setup will not be able to conform to the reflow requirement in WCAG 2.1 as the breakpoints are not triggered on zoom. As far as I understand there is also no way to reliably detect zoom with Javascript. This would be a major spanner in the works for our workflow. Can anyone confirm that this is a roadblocker for breakpoint setups? I don't know the fluid box setup well enough to say if it's the same problem there, but any input on that would be good as well. Thanks Jorgen

I am trying to use my work computer to work with Adobe Captivate 2019. It is an i3 and has 8G of RAM. however, I constantly get a fatal error message. Could this be due to the specs on the computer or is it more likely some filter my workplace has on their image? Thank you for any assistance. 

Hi everyone. I've always used Storyline and I'm solidly comfortable with it. New company only uses Mac and I'm considering making the switch to Captivate (would love to learn a new tool). How hard is it to move from Storyline to Captivate? Will I be totally lost or will having the Storyline background help to some degree? I have used PhotoShop and Premier in the past, but it's been a long time. Would love to hear any thoughts.

Hi, I signed up to take a certification exam and was redirected to Adobe Credential Management https://www.certmetrics.com/adobe/default.aspxI signed up through PSI Exams using that link and was registered under the wrong name. As a result, I wasn't able to take my exam. I can't edit the name on Adobe Credential Management or PSI Exams and was told to post here in order to contact the Certification Support Team. I need my name to be corrected on Adobe Credential Management and PSI Exams and a refund for the exam that I was unable to take.

I want my users to be able to resume where they left off because the course is long, however by doing this when they fail the quiz they can't restart the course.  I'm new to Captivate, as I'm a Storyline user.  Can someone please help me with this.I looked around the forum, but didn't find exactly what I was looking for.  Please redirect me if I missed this on the forumThank you

Hello, I created an interation in the past using Javascript to caluclate the sum of variables, now I am trying to calculate the average of variables, does anyone know if that is actually possible?

The latest projects which are created in Captivate 9 show some severe audio problems. The  audio files are shorter than the original files, e.g. 1:24 min instead of 1:26 min. Strangely enough this happens right when importing the mp3 in the library. After publish you can hear interfering noises, scratches, sound peaks and "plopps". Sometimes it sounds like fast forward, syllables and single characters are cut off. I´ve tried several sound settings, even maximum bitrate and highest quality, but that only enlarges the file size with the cut offs still happening.Is there a way to keep the original file in size and quality? Some technical notes:Captivate 9.0.2.437Responsive Project, publishing in HTML5Slide audioAudiosetting: constant bitrate 128 or 320, variable bitrate highest quality

This is very disappointing.Have read all the correspondence on this issue and it's clearly a bug for which there is no fix.How can I get a refund so I can switch to Articulate Storyline (which consistently gets better reviews than Captivate)?Cheers,Tom

I have created a six button click and reveal. It is a progressive project and I am not using fluid boxes. I created the first button and then copied it six times. I have an image that I want to reveal and audio that I want to have played. The first two buttons work. But when I click on the third one, the image comes up, the audio plays, and then the image disappears, with the audio continuing. When the audio is finished the slide is a blank video screen with only the title showing. There are no additional variables that I am using. There is an audio file that plays upon entering the slide. I am at a total loss as to what I am doing wrong with this. I am attaching some screen shots to show. Program Screen Advanced ActionsButton that works Third Button Blank Screen Is it possible when I create the preview that this will cause an issue with this? I did not think it would, but wanted to ask.Diane
