Possible to turn off capture of "Click the …" captions and highlight boxes?

Using Captivate 7 for Mac's Software Simulation mode, with the particular web application I'm using, the "Click the …" captions are rarely useful and the highlight boxes are confusing clutter.

Is it possible to disable those from capture? I can't find such options in the UI or online help.

Alteratively, is there a way to delete them all globally after capture?

    I am using Windows 7. But I guess you can find an equivalent location in Mac.

    Go to Edit > Preferences > Recording > Modes. Make sure that the Demonstration mode is selected in the Mode drop down list. Clear the Add Text Captions and Add Highlight Boxes on Click check boxes.

    Thanks, I was sure I remembered options like that from previous experience with Captivate. I probably missed it because it says Demonstration and I was looking for Software Simulation.
