Is there any way to manipulate default settings in Captivate from the back-end?

Hello all.  I'm looking to configure certain default properties (beyond what is offered in the Defaults section of Edit > Preferences).

Any chance there is a way to access the back-end code, and incorporate my own JavaScript to do so (Or implement JS upon stage entry to adjust these back-end system properties that are not configurable in Edit > Preferences without having to 'jail-break' the program? 

Any direction would be great.

Thank you!

Adam

Not that I'm aware of, but it may help if you can give examples of the types of things you'd like to alter.

For example, the SCORM code is all based on externalized templates, so you could change those if you had a standard modification you'd like to apply to all SCORM output.

Thanks, Erik!  What I'm trying to do, is alter the .js file embedded within the SCORM output package.  Might be about half-way there!  Thanks!

Hello, Erik!  When you say Externalized Templates, to what (or whom) does that refer?

Erik refers to the SCORM templates created by Rustici, which are used when publishing to a SCO. Either with reporting after each slide, or reporting at the end.
