Question

New smart shape 508 issue

Running Captivate 9 on Windows 10.This has only begun occurring in past month. We're developing using smart shapes as text elements or design elements. We've customized the accessibility name and descriptions to either appear blank or reflect the text only. However, on publication as a SCORE 2004 v 4 file in Blackboard Learn, testing is identifying any smart shape as a button and installing a default text description of "Button:  Trigger this button to go to the next slide"

This button designation and description is not showing up in the cptx file, nor are there any publishing settings, object style manager, or preference settings that are causing the issue as far as we can tell. Is there something that needs to be reset?

    Interesting, cannot check because I don't have access to Blackboard anymore. I wonder if this is linked with the fact that each shape style has by default 3 InBuilt states because it always can be used as a button. There is still no way to define a style separately for a shape and for a shape button. Even all Smart Shape styles for Quizzing objects (feedback message to give one example) have those InBuilt states. I always found that very weird, was less confusing in CP8.

    Worth a look, not sure if the three states are being deployed even if " use

    as a button" is not selected, but worth investigating as a possible cause.

    Thanks, Lieve!
