Question

How do you save a custom setting for making demo videos?

Hello,

I've looked everywhere, including the Adobe Captivate manual for v.8 (haven't seen a new one) and though you can find the window where you can select a custom parameter I can't figure out how to save one, as when you select the "Setting" button in the below left corner of the window, it simply takes you to a possible file location (where you want to default save your demo videos to), not how to save the custom setting.  Thanks anyone for help!

I'm in version 2017 of Captivate.

Which settings? Video Demo only has a resolution to set up. In Preferences you can choose to have 32-bit or 16-bit. What do you want more?

Manual is indeed not updated, Video Demo feature has not changed at all since CP8.

Hi Lilybird,

I’m taking about the screen capture size setting at the point of creation of a demo video. We previously had a certain size screen allows open so that when staff capture a video the red capture frame was always a custom size. Someone modified it and even when I changed it back, the customs size doesn’t remain (as if previously did.)

Hmmm, have no answer ready right away. Did you try to save the Preferences? You are recording a standalone video demo, right? Not from within a cptx-file.
