Is there an easy way to show final state when moving from HTML5 to Video output?

Captivate 2019.


I have some content that was originally created for interactivity/SCORM use.

 

Unfortunately, no one likes the SCORM experience in the LMS we are using, so I have to convert it to video.  This is fine since most of it is video demo in any case but I had some process slides where the learner would interact, clicking a button to reveal the next step.

 

I used one of the Captivate asset slides as a starter so I will admit my understanding of how states are added is minimal.

What I can't figure out if is there is an easy way to just show the slide in its final state without rebuilding the whole thing?

Correct answer Lilybiri

If you want it in the video it needs to be the normal state. Sorry...

Mutlistate objects are not at all useful when you want passive video output. To change states you need interactivity. Alternative : copy the content of the final state to a one-state object on the stage and hide or delete the multistate object.

Have written a lot about states. I use them all the time but only for interactive courses.

Please insert images, I lose too much time downloading attached images on my system, then opening them.

If you want to see a state, make sure it is the NORMAL state. That is the one appearing by default.

Normal state shows nothing.  The final state is what I want.

I told the easiest way: switch the content of the final state to the Nomral state. Replacing multistate objects by one state objects was just an alternative I proposed.

 


I would if I knew how to do that. I don't.

 

I thought the purpose of the community was to find help for things you cannot figure out on your own.  

That is what I came here hoping to discover how to do, since none of the googling I did, not the Captivate community, not the docs, could tell me how to change something from one state to another.

 

I have solved the problem the only way I could. I'll rebuild all of those components from scratch.
