Questions

Hello, I've created a Word Search in Captivate with 7 questions. No matter what I do, the answer clues are cut off, and the user is unable to see the full list of questions when scrolling. I've tried shorter questions, removing questions, changing the text size, changing the puzzle size, different templates, checking and unchecking the "scale text for responsive projects" option.Thanks for your help!

Hello, HELP! We have been using captivate to simulate medical software workflows for 2 years successfully. We have recently ventured into the idea of using projects to test end users workflows (performance based exams). We are using different variables to count correct and incorrect clicks. Each time we run through the simulation we are getting different results (counts). 50% of the time we reach the expected outcome, the other 50% it is incorrect, and out of those wrong outcomes , the same scenario being tested is producing different results. We have checked the advanced actions and variables multiple times for accuracy. we are at a wits end! We are assuming that there is something broken with captivate itself because our logic seems to be flawless. Does anyone have any experience with this type of logic? Thank you. 

I am testing Captivate to see if it meets my needs. The goal is simple:10 minute video mp4 I need to pause the video, show some text and two buttons which will skip some sections, go to another project, assign variables etc. The second part is simple. Trying the best way to accomplish the first one: pause the video when I show an object. I tried with a button and say 'pause untill a user clicks' but that allows a user to click somewhere else and 'skip'. I would prefer no overlay slides as they blurr the background. What is the easiest way guys? I used to use Opus Creator which is way more sophisticated and allowed me to assign actions to all objects when they SHOW. Is it possible here please?

I am trying to create quiz questions with custom feedback and three attempts.  I set the attempts to three and added customized feedback using the Advanced Answer Options.  The problem is that after the first attempt the slide continues to the next one.  If I change the Action to No Action or Pause, the slide will never advance if the user gets it wrong after three attempts.  What are the correct action settings to make this work?  I can supply a test file if necessary.Thanks,Andrew

What is the easiest way to create a TOC with a video presentation that was imported in? Thanks, Nick

Hi there,We currently have Captivate 8 and would like to install it on a new laptop. I am curious to know, is administrator rights required for Captivate 8 to work properly? From previous posts, it appears administrator rights is required for Captivate 8 not to crash.Thank you for your time!

Hello Everyone !  I guess I have a bug with a drag and drop exercice in my captivate file. When I give the good answer and click on the "validate" button all the proposals come back to their initial place and I'm not able to go to the "Good Answer" slide.  Anyone has an idea ?  Thanks in advace for your help !

Hi there, Whenever I preview the exact slide a puzzle interaction is on the timer and image are displayed on the page. If I preview my entire project the puzzle interaction is zoomed which obscures the timer. Is there any reason behind this that anyone can think of? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your help, I correct the images Because none of the 2 images becomes a button, check and nothing.I need the brain to jump to slide 2 and the heart to 3.the brain is png image and the heart jpg 

So in an example, the # of correct items (via COUNT # <- Accepted Drag Sources <- [Object Actions] is limited to 4, and "on accept" is REPLACE)... So that, when you add correct draggable #5,..(1) the 5th item it put next to the 4th, and(2) the 1st is moved -back- to its starting position- so you can only have 4 correct items in the drop target at the time..  My Question: Is there a USE CASE for this? Thanks!

I have Captivate 8.0 32 bit. I need 64 bit. Updated computer. Is there somewhere I can download it please?

I have recorded a video demonstration. Down the bottom I have helpful text appear in a smartshape and i'm hoping the shape can fly in from the left (or fade if only option) so that the users attention is better drawn to it (and just to make it look more schmick).

Hi guys, hope you can help me. I have a captivate source file with a kind of bug I'm not able to solve. I can see the player perfectly in preview mode but as soon as I publish my project, the player button dissapears and I just can see the bar moving! Any ideas? Thanks in advance. 🙂

Hello, I am new to using Adobe Captivate and am working on a project. I have set my knowledge check question to hae a success message appear. The user then has to click 'y' to continue.  This works fine. However, when I try to apply the same logic to my drag and drop question it does not work. It jumps straight to the page. Upon success of the drag and drop I would like a success message to come up and would like my user to have to press 'y' to jump the page I want it to go to.  I have used a tutorial to try and fix it but it is still not working. Any one out on the community there to help me?  Thanks!  

Hello! -Is there a way, to prevent the score from being send to the LMS at all, but to still be able to create a results page?  I am running into some issues, for which an expert might have the answer for grasps... So far I haven't found it on the forums though and I hope someone knows the answer.  For a certain project, the final score can only be 0, untill the learner passes the quiz for which he will be granted 100 points. The issue however, is that the quiz consists of 4 modules with randomized questions and after each question, a sub-score is send to the LMS (which is not allowed). To make things slightly more complicated, the user needs to answer 7 out of 8 questions correctly to pass and should then also be rewarded with a 100% score. Is there a way, to prevent the score from being send to the LMS at all? I have found a script that functions to set the score to 100 and the setting 'passed', at the time when I want it (see below). I thought abou

I have edited my english RDL file to set the following: <Object Name="DefaultCaptions" DefaultTemplate="">      <Event Name="ClickBoxSuccess" Template="Correct!"/>      <Event Name="ClickBoxFailure" Template="Try again."/>      <Event Name="ClickBoxHint" Template="Try again."/>      <Event Name="TextEntryBoxSuccess" Template="Correct!"/>      <Event Name="TextEntryBoxFailure" Template="Try again."/>      <Event Name="TextEntryBoxHint" Template="Try again."/>    </Object>However, when I record a software simulation, the failure text for clickboxes and text entry boxes, gives me the equivalent of the caption prompts. e.g. Click the OK button. or Type 13 in the text box.I'm not sure if there's a setting I'm missing that would make a difference. I just want every failure caption f

Hi, I had a problem with an mp4 event video playing on desktop but not on mobile. It took me several hours of testing to isolate the problem, so I wanted to share what I found here in case other people run into the same issue. Here's where the problem occurred: My application has multiple event video screens. The first video played properly on both desktop and mobile. However, the second video only played on desktop, but on mobile, tapping the play button would just select the entire screen and not play the video. Screen details:First video screen (3 objects): event video, button (back), button (next); On Enter: PauseSecond video screen (2 objects): event video, button (done); On Enter: Pause Solution: The only way I could get the second video to play on mobile was to rearrange the order of the buttons and video objects on each screen. On the first video screen, I moved the video object in between the two buttons. On the second video screen, I moved the video object abov

Friends, good morningWhat is the difference between .scorm and .SCORM?  

Hello, I’m trying to make an online course using Adobe Captivate. As part of the course, I would like learners to input their reflections into a text entry box and be able to download their response as a pdf. Eventually, the idea is that they will be able to keep this for themselves, and then send it to me for assessment. So, in short, is it possible to create a button that exports the slide or just their answers as a pdf, word document or in some other appropriate format? It would be even better if they could do this at the end of the project, and export all of their responses at once. Any help with this will be hugely appreciated and thank you in advance,Ben
