Question

Mouse path very slow

Hi,

I am working on captivate 9. I have not recorded the video but inserted mouse objects later. Although the mouse action is pretty fast in most places, I find it very very slow at some places. I checked all the properties if I was missing something. It seems the same as the rest of the mouse pointers inserted.

I need help in understanding this.

This is definitely a bug (one of many in the product that pop-up occasionally).

Am using Captivate 2019 and in random slides the mouse pointer moves so slowly that it doesn't get to its destination before the slide finishes.

I am talking about the Captivate-generated mouse on a screenshot slide.

If you are talking about a screenshot capture with a mouse object on top showing the mouse movement, then the timing of this object can easily be adjusted on the slide.

Is this a Video Demo recording or a Software Simulation recording?

I have just inserted a screen shot and added a mouse object later. Added

mouse an an object in all the slides. Am not sure why it's functioning with

the right speed in one slide, and very very slow just in the next slide.

PW's question was clearly off topic. There is no way to insert a mouse object on a Video Demo slide, that is only possible on software simulation slides.

Shorten timeline of mouse object.

Tried that too. Looks like some edit/update isn’t happening.
