Question

start and end of a project

I use Captivate 9. I had a project, made for teachers, and I wanted to end the project at a certain date.  In 'Project info' I put the date to end the project, after which should appear: "the project has expired'. But after that date I did not get a response from the teachers to tell me the project had expired. They just continued with the project without problems!

Is it possible that in some forms of publishing a Captivate project this marking of an end date does not work, possibly, has disappeared totally? If so, which method of publishing has the best results?

Are you talking about the Project: Start and End > Project Expiry Date field?

Yes, indeed!

I used the Calendar control to set the expiration time.

I will test, as you suggested, to verify the expiry date functionality.

Thanks


As you suggested, I have tested the possible options:

• Exporting as a movie - the expiry date function did not work.

• Exporting as html5 - the expiry date function did its job.

• Exporting as executable - the expiry date function also did its job.
