Rollover Slidelets in Captivate 9

I've been reading about rollover slidelets and they sound very interesting, but the it looks like perhaps the instructions on docs site are out of date? They say to create a slidelet you should select Insert > Standard Objects > Rollover Slidelet. However, in Captivate 9 I don't see a "Standard Objects" submenu, nor do I see anything about rollover slidelets elsewhere in the menu system (closest I can find seems to be Edit > Convert to Rollover SmartShape, which doesn't seem to be as flexible as a slidelet would be.


So... where did rollover slidelets go?

    Hi

    Rollover sidelets are on the "Big Button" toolbar.

    Objects > Rollover Sidelets

    Nimmy warned already about rollovers not being supported by Responsive projects. Moreover be careful not to have overlapping regions for the rollover area and the slidelets, because that can cause issues as well.

    I really hope the Help documentation will be updated, instead of still showing work flows that were valid up till Captivate 7,  both CP8 (released in May 2014) and CP9 have a totally changed UI. The Insert menu was stripped down to showing Slide types, forgotten is the Software slide as option.

    Hi there,

    For a normal project, Rollover slidelet option, please click on the 'Objects>Rollover slidelet'  option from the Toolbar. Rollover slidelets are not supported in Responsive projects.

    Thanks,

    Nimmy Sukumaran..
