Remove or hide built in breakpoints

[Teksoft15]

Hello. For various reasons I need to create a responsive project, but I do not want multiple break points. Is there any way to delete the built in break points? Or can I hide them somehow within the published files so they won't trigger?

If you only want ONE screensize, why do you think you need a Responsive project?  Why not just create a normal HTML5 project at the screensize you need and then set it to be Scalable HTML so that it will adjust to any slight size differences of screens?

It has to do with how Captivate publishes text. In a standard project, text is embedded onto a slide image, so it becomes part of a png (this is with an html publish). With a responsive project, the text is stored in a separate Javscript file so I can go in and edit text for a bubble without having to open Captivate, which is functionality the client wants. I'd rather do it as a standard project, but I can't figure out how to have the text publish into the Javascript file with standard.

Hello,

I have the same question. Out of 3 built-in break points, I would like to remove one of them. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,

Maryam

Not through UI, but perhaps this can be done programmatically, using JavaScript.

Use the two top breakpoints, and just ignore the lowest breakpoint. If you expect that learners never will use a browser resolution that has a width smaller than the second breakpoint, you can just ignore the third, lowest breakpoint. No need to hide or remove it.

Hi Lilybiri,

I want to remove the mobile breakpoint, which I think is a default breakpoint for Captivate 9.  Is there any way to do this? If I just choose to ignore it, won't I still publish the mobile view, which would increase my file size? And do I end up with a wacky look on my mobile phone if I don't design for mobile?

Thanks, as always, for your advice!

If you ignore it, it will be just the same as the tablet view. I cannot answer about the size, never double-checked if adding breakpoint views increased the size. I just wonder if you really need responsive design, why not just use rescalable?

[Zoey2005]

What is the advantage of responsive design over rescalable--so you can better control things like font size and layout when you go to a smaller device?

Maybe this blog post could clarify?

Fluid Boxes Or Breakpoint Views? - Captivate blog

Because in between Rescalable projects (only landscape) and full Responsive with Breakpoint Views, you know have also Fluid Boxes in Captivate 2017.
