Can't access widgets

[HamadaE]

Hi guys

OK - another question: All my widgets are greyed out and I can't use them. Am I missing something here? Is it becaue I'm using a MAC? Or is it a version thing?

If you're creating a responsive project, this would be normal.

Please, which version are you using? When you say 'widgets', are you talking about learning interactions or the 'old' widgets? How did you try to insert them?

[HamadaE]

I've got version 8. I was not going via learning interactions - are the old widgets not available with version 8?

[Lilybiri]

Maybe this blog post will explain more in detail: Tips - Learning Interactions - Captivate blog

Some old widgets have been replaced by learning interactions, others are still available in the Library. I explain the paths and differences between learning interactions (are also widgets) and the old widgets in that article.

Thanks for this - I'll take a look and come back if I have any questions

Thanks for this Lily.

I notice that the widgets are available to me if I use a static project. While in a responsive project none of them actually not even some, are available to me. Is this correct? Is there any way around this to be able to access all the widgets from responsive project?

Thanks

Rod told you already (and I mention it in my blog post as well) that the old widgets are not valid for HTML5 output, and a responsive project is always HTML5.
