Captivate scripting - change x & y position of object

Most of the time if you just use the element name (e.g "Image_1") it won't work the way you want it to, your best option is to check the object name within cp-frameset if you inspect on a browser while previewing it. Basically by adding the prefix "re-" and suffix "c" in your script, it works every time for me.

As an example:

document.getElementById("Image_1")

would become:

document.getElementById("re-Image_1c")

You can trigger any effect, also a motion effect using either directly with that button, or with an advanced action. If you don't need to do anything else with that button, the first approach will do what you want. At least: if you know the exact location where the object has to end. Motion path can be edited on the stage.

This is a script I used to incrementally move an object by 10 pixels right and down. If you change the number (10) it should work for you.

var obj = document.getElementById( 'Image_1c' );

var posX = parseInt( obj.style.left );

var posY = parseInt( obj.style.top );

obj.style.left = ( posX + 10 ) + 'px';

obj.style.top = ( posY + 10 ) + 'px';
