In demo mode with add text captions selected, text captions are not automatically adding on mouse clicks.  Why is this happening?

Can you show Preferences, Modes, Demonstration? Are you sure you captured the software simulation in Demonstration mode?

Thank you for your reply.

Additional info:  As I click on different items during recording I do not hear the camera snapshot sound, and Mouse trails are not showing in the editing window.  Also if a dialog box takes a while to open normally Captivate will compress that time so that a 30 wait will only last 3 seconds to open.

And the whole recording session instead of creating multiple slides it create one whole slide for the entire recording of the steps.  The version of Captivate 7 is 7.0.1.237 on Windows 7 64 bit.

Here are the settings.

Please, start a new softwre simulation. Now you show an Assessment, which has even less text captions, only Failure captions. You are always inserting more software sim slides in an existing project. Start a totally new project, only Demonstration mode to check. I'm still not sure you did capture in that mode.


Thanks for replying so quickly, the screen shot I sent you says the mode is in demonstration.

Here is the process I follow when recording.

I click on the record button, choose after what slide to start the recording.

Then I select Manual- 1st screen shot

I click on settings

Then settings again - see 2nd screen shot

Then choose the options on the 3rd screen shot which shows "Demonstration"
