Project Charm

Just watched the keynote from Adobe eLearning World 2021. The new version of Captivate, code-name Project Charm was quickly demoed. It looks like the interface has been majorly updated/changed. I'm not sure if I have ever seen an application get such a drastic change in one go. I'm not saying Captivate didn't need it, but we all got used to the way it was.

 

I hope the demo was a very simplified demo - I did not see a lot of the advanced features we use on my team. I hope they are still there.  

 

I'm also curious if there are changes to the Captivate player code. We use the JavaScript API and widgets very heavily. I hope we do not have to re-work all those for this new version.

 

It looks like creating responsive eLearning migh be a little easier in this new version.

 

What did everyone else think?

      The summit this year is going to have a "Project Charm test kitchen." I can't afford to go, but I guess that's going to be the only way one can do a beta test now.

              I'd love to be in on this. I was on the Captivate beta team for the Mac version a million years ago, for version 5. And I used to develop widgets for it. I have heard some good things about Project Charm, and I'd love to get a chance to beta test it.

                Captivate 5 for Mac was released. It was also part of eLearning Suite 2. Here's a news item about it:

                                I am exctited about the new Cpativate!  The old version has needed an updated for far to long.  It's such a heavy program.  Little things like text moving on occasion when you select it drives me crazy.  Also, having live text when published will be a great thing that Storyline has had from the beginning.  I am also hoping for better Accessibility features.
