Questions

I've made a nice menu system in new Captivate, and it works nicely... (Granted I've got 20 conditional Interactions on the entrance to my menu). Except for one of my variables seems to be duplicating itself every time the page is run.I can't find any Interaction causing this (I can't find a way to do this in Interactions!) but I've now got 40 copies of my variable. Has anyone else experienced this? Can anyone tell me what's going on?

Audio with Captivate 12.3 is sometimes audible and sometimes not: Windows:Firefox:   yesChrome:   yesEdge:   yes macOS:Firefox:   yesChrome:   noSafari:   no It does not make a difference in which way I added the audio. Sometimes I added an MP3 to a slide so that it should play automatically when the user navigates to the slide. Other times I added a button with a Play Media interaction and an uploaded MP3 so that the audio should play after the button has been pressed. Does anyone have the same problem?

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong.  I've been trying to create a memory game and I keep running into issues with the code/logic for resetting after an incorrect match.  I read this post https://blog.lilybiri.com/memory-game-setup-version-2021 and followed the directions but the cpCmndGoToFrameAndResume didn't seem to reset anything. The cards turned over and never turned back. I've read so many blog posts and tried many different variations but couldn't figure out a fix.  So I tried another way and this one is also *almost* working.  Everything is fine when you don't get a match - the cards show the back and then turn over.  And the 1st time you get a match, it works as expected - the cards show the back and then disappear.  But after the 1st match it breaks. The cards will still flip to the back but they never turn back over or disappear - whether the match is correct or not.  Here is an example of

Hi, I have recently installed Adobe captivate 12.3 version. I want to know is there way that we can import pdf or directly display PDFs on slides in 12.3 version as Web Object feature is not available in this version. Also I want know what is the slide resolution or slide size of the project created using 12.3 version. How I can find out the size/resolution of the project.

I am creating a final quiz project. A test project has been set up in a blank project format using the default MCA slides. An intro slide  has been added with a button to start the quiz. The student is to use the "Submit All" button on the slide of the last question to submit all their MC answers. The "back" and "next" buttons are available so the student can review and check their answers prior to using the "Submit All" button that is on the last question slide. When published to HTML5, the quiz functions as expected except, when the "back" and "next" buttons are used to cycle through the questions prior using the  "Submit All" button, the selected answer on the last question slide (with the "Submit All" button) is cleared and has to be selected again.  I have used Safari and Firefox to publish the test quiz,  both return the same error Your help and guidance please Bob

I read a discussion post from 2 years ago that you can NOT publish an entire mp4 video project with closed captions unless you add a smart shape to each slide with CC on it. Has anything changed?I tried with Captivate 2019 and didn't have luck but maybe I missed something?Thanks.

I have a slide with tabs, each tab needs to have text to speech audio attached to it that starts when selected and stopped when a different tab is selected, which will in turn start that tabs audio.For example in case it isn't clear: When on Tab 1, I would need audio to start and stop that addresses the content on that tab. When selecting perhaps Tab 3, the audio would from Tab 1 would need to be stopped and it would need to then jump to the audio with Tab 3.  Is it possible to have each of these 5 tabs on a single slide have indiviudal audio sections attached to it? Right now the audio just goes on speaking Tabs 1-5, no matter what slide is selected.  Thanks! 

Hola, buen día!acabo de actualizar mi adobe Captivate a la versión 2024.  Cree un proyecto que está lleno de video y preguntas de examen. Quiero condicionar un boton para que te permita pasar a la siguiente con la condición de que ya hayas reproducido completo el contenido. Alguien sabe ¿cómo puedo hacer esto en la nueva versión de Captivate? Saludos! 

Al momento de crear un proyecto nuevo o al abrir cualquier archivo en captivate la pantalla en la que se visualiza la mesa de trabajo se pasa automaticamente a la esquina, haciendo casi imposible editar y trabajar el documento, parte de la slide queda cubierta por el borde negro de la interfaz, ya instale el programa por segunda ves pero quedo igual nose que pueda ser. estoy en una macOS Sonoma 14.5

I want to add Page peel effect to all the slides. But the peel effect is not available in the Timings panel. Can anyone help to achieve this? Thanks in advance!

I need to import corporate images ans other images to Captivate Version 12.2.0.19. I cannot find any way to do that. 

Speed up your authoring by drastically reducing the number of steps required to use images as buttons in your eLearning course. Captivate allows you to add any image or an SVG to your course and directly use it as a button. Define actions or advanced actions and assign them to the button in a few simple steps.

Well - new software - new challenges.That includes a newly redesigned play button screen.Those of you who are eager to jump on board with the newly redesigned version of Captivate but failed to appreciate the forced play button screen in Captivate Classic - will find it has resurfaced and here is one way to get past it in the new 2023 version.I am guessing there may be a much more elegant way to accomplish this - and if I discover it - I will certainly share. Until then, this is what I have.  As far as I know at this stage of the game - we will need to do this twice. Once for previewing and once for publishing projects. You will need admin rights to save the changes. **Please be careful making these types of modifications - you could break your install. Having a backup of the original HTML files just in case is not a bad idea. For Previewing Projects:Navigate to the following location...C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate\CPRuntime\Open the index.html file found

Does anyone know how to paste text and have it match the current formatting? I have been doing it fine until today.Normally, I would copy text from a Word document and when I pasted the text onto a slide in Captivate, the text would match the formatting on the slide.  Now, when I paste, the text keeps the formatting from the Word document.I don't know why that setting changed but it would be REALLY helpful to get it back.Any ideas?

I created a E-Learning with questions on CPT and posted in on my LMS (Talentsoft).The E-Learning is working and i have set the Exit Button via Java Script with the code SCORM_CallLMSFinish(); When i click on the button the e-learning is closing but it stills appears as ongoing and not as finished on the LMS, even if all questions have been answerd correctly. And when I try to redo it, when I am on the last slide, the e-learning shuts down automatically without any clicking.Can you please tell me what I have done wrong?KRYves

Hi all! I am looking for instructions on how to make text to speech a selection when I am selecting the audio functionality as part of a project. I have downloaded the text to speech packageI am selecting the text in my project and do not have the option for text to speech What am I missing any troubleshooting steps? I am using the most recent version of Captivate. 

Hello, I am using Captivate 2019. I have a problem. When importing quiz questions in CSV format in languages other than English, such as Russian or Korean, the font appears corrupted and the quiz questions are not displayed correctly. I believe this is a font issue, but no matter how much I search, I cannot find a way to change the font after importing the CSV file. In this situation, changing the font does not correct the text. Is there a way to change the default font to another font entirely?

Trying to publish a Captivate Classic project in mp4 format. From the Publish dropdown, select Publish to Computer. From the Publish as dropdown, select Video. Click Publish, get the following error: "Swf compilation failed. Note: Please verify if any of the actionscript is used as user variable name."

I'm encountering an issue with my slide in the review link. While it functions perfectly in preview mode, the elements don't appear according to the intended timeline during the review. This inconsistency seems to occur sporadically, working smoothly on the first attempt but not on subsequent ones. This might be a bug. Would you be able to assist me in understanding why this is happening and how to ensure consistent presentation in the review link?

HiI am having an issue with the new Adobe Captivate as I can't resize the project slides. It seems like such an easy feature to resize them but I'm going round in circles. I started with the default size of 1366x768 pixels, however, when I opened it again today, the size has changed to 1920x1080. I can only assume this was after attempting to record a software simulation on a Full HD window.  When I preview my project, the default size is back in play with the responsive design, but the problem is, my working window is still displaying 1920x1080 and nothing aligns properly, so I can't line up the components correctly. Does anyone have an idea for fixing this? It seems such an obvious thing but I'd really appreaciate any advice. TIA

Hola! He creado un contenido en captivate 2023 y lo he publicado en una plataforma moodle, el caso es que todo va bien en la primera visualización que los alumnos hacen, pero a partir de ahí si vuelven a entrar al tema, el contenido desborda la pantalla por debajo y no se ve completo.Voy a intentar adjuntar un vídeo.Gracias. 

After updating to Captivate 12.3 I started a new project a few slides.  Something seems to be different in 12.3.  All slides pause on exit with or without and interaction in place to do so.  If there IS an on exit interaction in place to advance to the  next slide or even to a specified slide - the slide still pauses. I have to manually click "NEXT" in the playbar to advance to the next slide. Is anyone else having a similar issue? I came across this post on Captivate 12.1.0.16 from August 2023 that is the same issue  I'm describing. https://community.adobe.com/t5/captivate-discussions/captivate-12-project-won-t-auto-advance-to-next-slide/m-p/14396617#M305700

So I created several training modules. (Using Captivate 2023) All of them work well, except one. For some odd reason when I test it in the Adobe Learning Manager, the slides will move to the next slide, but then a second later move to the one after that. So the reader is seeing a second or two of the next slide in sequence and then it move to the next one. This happens periodically throughout the module, so I am not sure what is wrong or what setting I might have off. I tried putting in a bookmark to stop play, but that didn't solve the problem.

On five random slides in my training, the closed caption is changing to "Enter slide note" only when I publish or preview HTML5. I have tried adjusting the timing, deleting and recreating the caption, but nothing seems to work. The only similarity between the the five slides is that only the last caption on the slide is disappearing. Has anyone else run into this issue? I'm on Captivate 11.8.2.
