Hi, 

I have create 5 new images to use as a caption background for my question. I also have an FCM document with my 5 images. 

But each time I upload tehm in  my captivate, I alwasys have a transparent padding around my images.

How can I remove this padding to have my background covering all the caption?

 

Thanks

Catherine

    Are these shapes with the fill as your image? If so you might want to select Stretch so your image fills the shape. Alternatively, you may need to make your captions smaller to only take up the area that the image uses.

    Hi, it's a bmp made in photoshop. Only a square fill with a color. In captivate, even I get my caption smaller, the padding sitll here and it finish that I don't see my color background. I only see the padding.

    Where do I select stretch?

    I see. I think what's happening is that you are using the old style captions. I would switch those to Smart Shape Captions instead. Are these for regular questions slides? What project theme are you using and what version of Adobe Captivate are you running?
