Randomly I have an issue with the time line where an object I am trying to move get placed on the same line with another object. I did not get a screen shot but I will try next time it happens.

Hello.Could you help me, please.When I add a video to the project and trying to play it to find the point to set bookmarks my sound is correct but video looks like slideshow. The CPU load is about 10-15%.GPU the same. I have a lot of space on HDD. But the freezing is always. And after publishing project all problems gone. But I couldn't find the right point to set bookmarks and overlays. Could you advise to me what to do.

I am currently creating some SCORM packages for a client for use in Cornerstone on demand.I have tested the packages using both Moodle and Scorm cloud and they work as expected. However my client is telling me that in Cornerstone, if a user goes back in to the package after it has been marked as completed the user is taken to the last slide as opposed to starting from the beginning.  I have set 'set exit to normal after completion' in captivate which works perfectly in Moodle and Scorm cloud.  The only thing that seems to work for Cornerstone is setting 'never send resume data' to true in Captivate, however this of course means that the user cannot re-start where they left off if they quit prematurely.  I have also tried multiple combinations of other settings to no avail. The client has also told me that there are no additional settings for SCORM packages in Cornerstone beyond a browser compatibility option. I find this odd as Moodle for example has multiple s

Good morning! I'm using the latest Captivate 9 and came across a problem. When I publish the Captivate file to HTML5, the text to speech feature works great in normal speed but when I fast forward, the text to speech is disabled until I return to normal speed. Do I need to convert the text to speech to another file format for this to work when fast forwarding? I toggled the mute button and that did nothing.  I appreciate any help!

. I need help recording tutorials for work using video demo and uploading to Vimeo or YouTubes. I can’t seem to preset to 1080 or upload at 1080. When recorded they are crisp, after upload they are blurry and not 1080 ever. Can you please help?

With so many educators now forced to try and educate students through various distance learning methods, (many states for the remainder of the school year) this should be made widely available to staff and students in a more cost effective manner.  Alternatives like Camtasia do exist, but we are already loyal paid subscribers to the Adobe suite and shocked to find this still nearly $399 annually for education!

WTF is the ruler for in Captivate. I turned the ruler on, expecting an InDesign experience. How lame could a ruler be. Rocked me back to Photoshop 3.0

HI All,I am not that familiar with variables / advanced actions / conditional actions - I have been trying to get up to speed and have watched many tutorials but i am not sure what I am trying to do is possible -I have a "Next" button I have created using a Smart Shape. I would like the "Next" button to be viewable, however, I would like it to be "Disabled" until the user completes 100% of viewing the slide - then, I would like this button to be enabled to move onto the next slide.I am able to hide the next button, and use the timeline to make it appear at the end of the slide - which I made as a "work around" - but just curious if the above can be done.I am not sure about the process in going about it despite reading the Adobe help, forums, and utube videos.Anyone have an idea? I am looking for a step-by-step given my unfamiliarity. Thanks!

When I finish adding my definitions to the glossary widget, it displays on the slide like this. Even if I make the widget box itself enormous, the glossary stays this size. Is this is a bug or am I doing something wrong? Any help would be appreciated.  

Hello,I am working on an eLearning with audio and no quizzing that will have three branches and wonder what is the most efficient way to get this done. I am using Adobe Captivate 2019 11.5.1.499. All three branches are identical for the first 5 slides. On slide 6, users will be able to choose one of three paths. Slides 7-65 will be different for each path, although some slides will be identical in all three paths (for example, slides 10-14 and 55-62 are identical). I have run into problems when copying slides among the paths because the slide notes copy over and when I edit them, I change the slide notes for the initial created path. When I have tried the approach of creating three separate projects and then bringing them together at the end, I have run into the error that I am trying to add a deleted object objType = 154. Any suggestions?Thanks in advance

I'm becomng very well versed in using shapes for interactivity in Captivate - but I'm wondering if it's possible to replace the default submit button formats (text/transparent/image) on quiz slides with a smart shape?  My client would like to see a submit button with rounded corners and specific styling. I could go build the button as separate images and load them into the gallery, but it would be much simpler if I could create it as a smart shape button.  I did find an older thread on this, but no answer as to whether it's possible with the submit button.  I couldn't find any suggestions on a google search either - so I expect it's not an option.  I thought it might be worth a shot asking in the community though...  Thanks!Brian 

So,  I purchased Adobe Captivate 7 back in 13.  I want to load it up on a new laptop.  However, the links that I have used on several occassions for downloading do not work.  Any suggestions?  

How do i pre-set or ensure that the video demo i record for vimeo or youtube will always be 1080 quality?

On the fifth slide of my project I have seven buttons to press before the 'next button appears. The first timne I hit the next button; the screen flashes white and the slide refreshes. If I try clicking the buttons a second time; I get to the fifth or sixth button and the screen flashes white and the slide resets again. I've tried previewing the project from after this slide, in which case it gets even stranger: It will let me view no more than two slides before the next button simply doesn't do anything. The only clue I have is may variable for number of total slides which should be a static variable (cpInfoSlideCount - 3) set on the first slide. It should equal 17, however when I preview from slide 6 it seems to be reading the current slide number instead (it increases by 1 on the next two slides). Has anyone seen anything like this before? I'm completely lost.

I'm trying to re-install Captivate on a new machine and I'm receiving this message when I enter my 2019 serial number: I tried using the online chat but it is basically useless and the 800 number closed on weekends. 

This was said in the past:Hi,Unfortunately my CP9 crashed after recording and I have only unsaved rdmp4 file.Is there any way to recover/open/edit rdmp4 file?Thank you,Peter How do I fix this because it seems like no one at Adobe want to fix it. Has there been any update on this???? Because I would love to know if there is a way to fix a rdmp4 file? That way I can use a video I made.  Was also suppose to get a call from a supervisor and no one wants to answer or call me. 

Hi all, Long story short.. My employeer used to have Adobe Captivate that I used to build a project for an internal client and it all went well and such.. but since the license was not renewed.. the client came back and wanted the all the files in a zip (Which I provided) but since we don't have Captivate anymore, we are unable to view the .aspx file even with a browser.Are there alternatives to viewing the project/opening it without using captivate?

Hi all,I'm running a simple slide where I have 3 images appear a few seconds apart from each other. Unfortunately, when I run it in the preview it freezes on the first animation. I've checked for pauses and this isn't the issue. Help?   Thank you! 

I am trying to have a button that shows and hides a text entry box displayed for the rest of the project. I have the box checked in the Timings tab, but it does not work when I preview the project. Does anyone know what the issue is or can share a good resource library? 

Hello,So it used to be possible to select a group and in Properties choose Display for "Rest of Project".This is NOT working for me in Cap 2019? What happened? I am trying to create a HELP menu that I can create ONCE on the first slide, have it stay for the rest of project, and SHOW the Menu group on click of a button, and HIDE the menu group with a close button. IF the group is not able to be set for REST OF the Project, how can I do this?We can have the Menu as a slide, but then if a user clicks to go to the MENU slide when they return to the original slide the audio and animation repeat and the slide starts over. Any ideas?THanks,mark

Good morning!I have inherited a very large (3.69 GB) captivate project that includes several embedded videos. The client was running it from a USB flash drive, apparently. We cannot host it on our SharePoint site because it is too large and also because it won't run from Chrome or Edge (a larger problem for another post). Additionally, it is training for external partners who do not have access to our intranet or shared drives.I was able to find a host for it through our Corporate Branding group on their Widen Asset site. So, I converted it to an MP4 and asked them to upload it. My problem is that the embedded video runs for a second, then stops. Any advice? I'm not super techy, so keep it simple, please :). No scary code talk for this girl! Thanks in advance!Mary Saunders

Hello Adobers,I reached out to this community (which I didn't know existed) because I need some help from experienced adobe users as to what application do I need to start my project.I want to create online courses about science. The final product would be a video that would present the lesson, a physics exercise f.e. I want to create moving objects, falling, accelerating, colliding e.t.c. At some parts of the video  I will write down the equation and the problem solution using digitizer, and maybe i will record my self talking in a corner. In my future plans is to create animated characters that will talk or showing stuff. e.t.c. I have experience with Photoshop but no other adobe product. Which one would you recommend to invest my time and resources?
