Text animation not working

Question

Hello,

I'm creating a Captivate movie with 12 movie slides, each
slide consists of a Text animation header, SWF animation movie that
was a screen recording made in Camtasia before we switched to
Captivate. I have the text animation header setting to "end of
slide" and the SWF movie "to end of slide", The problem I'm having
is that the text animation is not letting all the letters in the
text headers appear or finish, for example "Data Prod" is only
shown when is should say "Data Production". Also my SWF movies do
not show a playback skin, so there is no controllers. I found that
I can only attach it to the FLV movies import but not the SWF movie
import. So how do I add this? If you need to see the sample what
I'm talking about go to this link.

Hi JenOkay, I downloaded and took a look at your project. Whew.Slow load time! What appears to be happening is that you have a couple ofbuttons on the page. One labeled "Back" and another labeled "Next".I'll be willing to bet $1 against a doughnut that yourbuttons are pausing the slide before the animation has had a chanceto fully complete.Take a close look at your Timeline for these slides. Youshould see layers where you have inserted either Click Boxes orButtons. Note where the pause points are. For a Button, the pauseis normally in the middle. For example, if the button is timed for3 seconds, the pause normally occurs at 1.5 seconds. For ClickBoxes, the pause doesn't occur until the end of the time it is onthe screen.The bottom line is that you probalby just need to configurethese objects to wait longer before pausing. This will then allowenough time for your animations to complete.Hopefully this helps... Rick
