3D in Adobe Captivate

[BP72]

Has anyone successfully incorporated 3D content into a Adobe Captivate project?

Now that I have a little time on my hands I would like to revisit a idea I had about incorporating simple 3D in Captivate.

The idea was in one slide of a Adobe Captivate project there needs to be a rotating 3D model and I was thinking it could be done in Animate CC and then using Captivates Web Object import (oam) I could insert the 3D object rotating animation and I am done. Unfortunately I was never able to make this happen. Ideally the module with the rotating 3D object would be able to be uploaded to Blackboard Learn.

I asked a while back in the Adobe Animate forums about the ability to bring a 3D object into Adobe Animate similar to a 3D PDF, nothing fancy, just rotation of an object.  3D PDF functionality in Animate CC

I found where someone imbedded a Unity game in Captivate so I know much more complicated 3D animation can be done..

Captivate run an embedded unity game - Discussion | eLearning | Page 2291574 

Any words of wisdom from anyone out there that has done anything similar to this?

Lilybiri​ - any sage advise on this?

Bump - Maybe I should of put this in the Advanced Captivate area.

If you can create 3d and export as an OAM or as a movie,  or an animated GIF, then your answer is yes. Animate does do a bit of 3D, it has a Z-Axis, a camera, 3D rotation tool.... so yes it can do 3D. I don't believe its possible to bring a 3D object and then rotate it around, but you can draw a rectangle in Animate, and then use the 3D rotation tool and rotate it around. Try it with a rainbow gradient so you can actually see it turning from front to back. Its pretty neat. But its a flat 3d rotation.

You can read more about that here:

or you can use a Plug-In to import a 3D object, but then you will need some programming skills to get it all to work

or you can use gradients, instance effects, and motion tweens to fake 3D animation as I have done here:

Hope this helps!
