Question

Rollover image (and caption) HTML5 support coming soon?

Hello,

  I use Adobe Captivate to create SCORM packages for import into common Learning Management Systems, such as Canvas, Blackboard, and Moodle. One of my favorite features to use in Captivate is the rollover image (and caption to a lesser extent) interaction. However, this is reliant on a Flash player and users must have Flash enabled on their web browsers for the module to work correctly in an LMS. Will HTML5 support for the rollover interactions be coming in a future Captivate update? I'm currently working with Captivate 2017 version 10.0.0.192 on Windows 10.

Thanks in advance!

Laura

Since the focus is at deployong courses for any device, and rollover has no sense on a tablet or a smartphone, I suspect this is not a priority. Rollover doesn't depend on the Flash player, but it is only 'guaranteed' in Captivate for SWF output. Did you ever try to publish for HTML5 and test on desktop/laptops. Rollover may work.

I've only tried publishing HTML5 once and published it through Canvas. The module would not load in the browser until I changed the output and re-uploaded the new SCORM package.

Not totally sure but I doubt seriously that it was done to the presence of rollover objects. Does the sever support JSON mime type?
