I am new to Captivate. I have used text-to-speech successfully. I would like to create closed caption using my slide notes. But it's not an option - closed caption is greyed out. Am I missing something? Or can you give me instructions on how to do this?

thank you!

I THINK I have to have the audio created in captivate to add closed caption. Am I correct that you cannot add closed caption to audio created in an imported powerpoint?

thanks

Welcome to our community

Usually in order to add CC, you have to have Audio existing at the slide level. This means you see a speaker icon on slide in the Film Strip. No speaker icon means no audio and no audio means no CC.

Note that audio may be present in three different "layers" in Captivate.

Slide
Object (Buttons, Captions, Images, etc.)

Hi Rick,

We are also new to Captivate 5.0. We have a project with audio (there is a speaker sign next to the slide in the film strip), we also check the "Audio CC" checkbox next to some of our notes. However the caption does not appear when previewing the slide. Any idea what is wrong with this? I uploaded an image for your reference:
