Is there a way to remove the text at the top of the table of contents that says "Slide Title" with a little flag next to it?

I've searched and can't seem to find how to turn that off.

Thanks

It isn`t about the whole TOC. The Problem is only this "Slide Title" caption. Like @danielb51742821 mentioned. It isn`t a problem for the slides but for the start page before you click the play button. As you can see in the first picture, the "slide Title" is still there. But on the slides (second picture) the suggested JS: $('#tocHeading').hide(); works just fine.

You'll need to add the css to the CPLibraryAll.css after publishing or you can create your own CSS file (toc.css) and include it in the head of the index,html in the source folder

"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 2019 x64\HTML\index.html"

Include statement:

drop the css file in the assets/css folder

"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 2019 x64\HTML\assets\css"

The css would be:

#tocHeading{
display:none
}

If you're feeling ambitious you could build your own table of contents. This way you have full control over what it contains. Check out this tutorial I did a year or so ago.

Thanks Paul. I did watch your video which is very well done. Thanks! I think I'll stick with the existing TOC i've got.

Slide Title is part of the skin - it can not be turned off

David, it can be translated, but it is a very old workflow, not sure it still works in CP2017.

Lieve this is what I have been talking about. If Adobe is serious about keeping Captivate as the premiere eLearning tool for educators, instructional designers and online learning developers - continuous "javascript hacks" like this or things like sliders or whatever, to do things the software should do, will continue to turn off the bulk of Captivate users. They are educators, trainers, instructors - - if you need a rollout of training in a company for a new marketing initiative or have to train staff on a mandated government regulation, you don't have the time and resources to spend your time becoming a software "programmer"- that's Adobe's job - that's why you buy the software
