Questions

Afternoon all,I have imported PowerPoint into Captivate that has a self assessment quiz (in other words there are hyperlinks in the PowerPoint that take you either back to the question if wrong or if correct you can continue). Question is if I export the Captivate to HTML (as flash is going away), the assessment doesn't come out right.  Am I missing something, a step or anything?  If I save it as a pdf everything works.  I need to save it as an HTML for our Learning Management System (LMS).    Thoughts?   Thanks in advance. Respectfully,Bill

I'm looking to add hotspots to a slide. Does anyone have any resources to walk me through how to do that? 

I am a new user of Captivate 2019 on an iMAc using OS 10.15.7One of the reasons for adopting Captivate was to be able easily create video lectures using PowerPoint.  This does indeed works very easily. I use the facility to capture myslef speaking whilst presenting the slides.However, when published to an MP4 file the sound quite quickly moves our of synchronisation with the video.  This happens very quickly, within the fist few minutes of the recording.Is there any simple solution to this problem?

Hi.In my projects I use a variable to work the text contents in vector format, so I can see the output result better.But what can I do to get captivate to install this font on the end-user machine?Thank you

One of our clients recently deployed a large scale, multiple module project. Many of their users are complaining that the course is not marking complete for them on the LMS, though it doesn't seem to be consistent. Many have tested on the same LMS and it marks complete fine.We have tested thoroughly on SCORM Cloud and can't recreate the issue.Currently, each module is published using SCORM 1.2 and success to mark complete is set to 100% of slides being viewed.Is there anything within Captivate that would cause this inconsistency? Any possible solutions?

Hi there - I am new to Captivate so sorry if this is a basic question.   My company has a subscription to an online platform containing video content.  We have permission to embed the videos into our online learning slides, however I can't get the embed link to be accepted at all? Can I only embed if the source is in Vimeo or Youtube?  I can't see how else it will work?  Any other options?In ActivePresenter software, I used to be able to just add the url and it would work.  The video URL is:https://imdex.safetyhub.com/embeddirect/V28F49G7/2246553?videosettings=0-66&hideprogressbar=1And the embed code is : <div style='position: relative;padding-bottom: 56.25%;padding-top: 25px;height: 0;'><iframe frameborder='0' scrolling='no' src='https://imdex.safetyhub.com/embed/V28F49G7/2246553?videosettings=0-66&hideprogressbar=1' allowfullscreen style='max-width: 100%;max-width: 100%;position: absolute;top: 0; left: 0;width: 1

I have a new coputer using updated windows 10, Nvidia Quadro 2000, 64G of RAM and 4 TB of soid state drive capacity. Captivate shuts down every time I try to use screen capture via 'Video Demo'. I have tried everything,,. start up as Admin, dumping Logitech software, Adobe Tech support could not fix it either, opting to tell me to disconnect two of the four monitors I have on my system, and when that did not work she had me call Windows tech support to back out of my latest window updates which as it turns out is a grinding and risky process of resetting my system shutting down and rebooting my computer 3 times and THEN working in safe mode, etc.... My question is, why would anyone spend over $1K for software that requires disassembling my system and erasing Windows updates? The tech says it has something to do with a KERNEL being bad. She would not help me fix it.I really want to use the software, but not at that cost, all that work, not being able to update my Windows

Hi - I am a complete novice when it comes to Captivate as I am awaiting further training but we’re having a problem with one of our products not reporting the pass to our LMS (CrowdWisdom) and I’ve been tasked with trying to do some digging! Having checked through the community forum someone suggested uploading the file to SCORM Cloud to see the completion works on there first and then you can assume that the issue is on the LMS side.Having done that, attached is what I get on SCORM Cloud having tested it myself as a learner. It seems to have been marked as complete - not sure what the “success unknown” means? Is there any reporting that I can look at in SCORM Cloud to see where our LMS may be going wrong? If not, then is there anything obvious I can check in the Captivate File? Thanks in advance Stacey

Hi. I am needing to hide objects in Captivate from screen readers. I had read somewhere that if you unchecked the Auto Label box in the Accessibility panel that the object would not be read. This does not seem to be true. Is there another way?  Thanks for your help!

I am working with a vendor to upload two Captivate courses. The vendor handles all the uploading and connecting of things - I just hand them a zip file, so I know very little about their process. The two modules are apparently jumping directly to the "thanks for watching" slide at the end. I cannot replicate it on my own system here, so I don't know what's happening. The vendor sent the notice below and I have no idea how to fix it. I don't know how they found the error. My opening slide has no "on enter" actions and only has a button to go to the next slide. From the vendor:After some further investigation, our Technical Team has advised me that the issue with these courses is the following value causing the course to be marked as completed immediately: LMSSetValue cmi.core.lesson_status, ‘completed’. If you could please correct this, and re-upload these courses, we would be glad to update the site. Thank you!  Can someone guide me to where I might address that LMSSetVa

Has there been any update on when we can expect a Big Sur patch? And if we were to roll back to Catalina would the new creative cloud updates be affected/break in Catalina?

Hello,I haven't used Captivate in a while. Are the clickboxes keyboard accessible?  I don't see them in the tab order, but didn't know if some new update/procedure makes them accessible to a screen reader and keyboard.Although in preview, it doesn't seem to be keyboard accessible.    Thanks,Sam

Hi, I'm just here to rant briefly about the object styles: So many! Most are fugly! The use of bitmaps to compose the caption styles is quaint but outdated! Black text on Dark Green? Are you mad? Style names that have the redundant usage of the word "STYLE" in the name? It's the style menu! What do they think they're going to see here, trees? Not to mention the extraneous brackets at the left and right, and the usage of the word "DEFAULT" which, by the way, does not make it a default if the "Set as Default" check box is not marked.  I like to read (for laughs) the latest documentation for Captivate, which was last updated in August of 2018. (What a simple time compared to now.) It's called the "Reference" but it's still just a series of how-to's. Does it, for instance, give a list of the built in styles and show what they look like? (You know, for reference?) NO! Does it provide a rundown of the object styles and how they are related to one another? (For, I don't know, helping out

We are moving our Captivate projeccts to Docebo LMS. All of our Captivate projects include an exit button at the top of each slide and on the last slide.  When users click the exit button when viewing the project in Docebo using Chrome, the user is taken entirely out of Docebo and not returned to the course to complete the remaiming lessons.  This does not happen in Firefox or Edge/IE - users are taken back to the course.Chrome version: Version 87.0.4280.66 (Official Build) (64-bit)Adobe Captivate Version: 2019 11.5.1.499 Has anyone else experienced this issue or is aware of a solution? Thank you.

Hello, I was watching a video on Captivate interactions, and noticed that I am missing the Assets tab on the top right, as well as the option to make an image a button on the properties pane.  I have a cloud subscription to Captivate and presumed that I would automatically receive all updates.  I used the help function in Captivate to find upgrades, and indeed it found one.  The problem is that it is asking me to close Captivate in order to update.  I am not sure if update 5 will fix the problem and how to install the update if I have to close Captivate in order to do so.  TIA

I am trying to work out how to use TTS with captivate.I have a text box that can have a number of different messages in it, only one message at a time. Then on click of a button I require the text message to be read out to the user. As this message is not controlled as to its content, I can not use an audio playback it has to be TTS. Can I do this with Capivate or do I need to use some other application to achieve the desired results?

Just started using Captivate to help my students working digitally. I have the software and created my first project but I have no way to publish it so my students can view. I was told to launch from Google cloud but I only have access to google drive. Are there any free options I can use to publish projects to students? 

Hi, I'm a total captivate newbie. I've seen this question answered for other versions of captivate but those option placements aren't available for captivate 2019 (or I can't find them). How do I stop my project from auto-advancing? Do I need to create an advanced action, or is there a work around?

Hi everyone! I am working on a game in which if I drag the picture to the right place, the picture will disappear. If it's dragged to the wrong place, it will just go back. Does Captivate support this? Thanks in advance! 

I am running Adobe Captivate 11.5.5.676 on a Mac.   I am having issues where the audio cuts out.  I have tried adding 0.5 to 1 second after the audio clip but that hasn't helped.  The Fade in/Fade Out is set to 0.  I tried it on different browsers but same issue with Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari.   The odd thing is the audio only cuts out at the end sometimes but not always.  There is no issue if I view it as a preview.  I even have 1.5 seconds on the slide after the audio ends but same issue. Please help!
