Question

Adobe Captivate - Object Actions, Apply Effect is not working in HTML?

Hi

I am working on a project where I have a drag and drop interaction using basket balls. You have to drag the correct balls to the correct baskets. I am having a problem while creating an advanced action on the drop target to make the balls drop through the basket. I have applied my own custom XML effect of the balls bouncing and they play perfectly well in Captivate's preview, however when I view this in HTML or Publish it out as HTML the effects stop working and do not play. Is there any way around this? Or is there another way I can create the balls to go through the basket?

I would also like to mention that I took off my custom effect and tried a normal animation of captivates and this also did not work in advanced actions.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

Did you create the XML definition from After Effects?

Hi, thanks for replying so fast!

I made the motion in Captivate and saved it out, and exported it back in as a custom effect. This effect works perfectly fine on my other slides as well in html with no problems.

Not sure why its not working...We have never used the apply effect option before in advanced actions so I am also at a loss to why that is not working.

 

If it helps this is where Apply Effect is having an issue: 


What was the work flow to have the custom effect available in the Advanced Actions dialog box?
