How to bold individual word in a text caption??

Hi,

I'm pretty familiar with Captivate 5, though there doesn't seem to be a way to bold or underline an individual word in a text caption. This is a basic feature in most programs.

I did search help and the forums for this. It sounds like you can either bold the text of the entire caption, though not a single word.

Help please...

If this functionality doesn't exist, Adobe needs to add it in the next release.

Thanks,

Dan

    Rick is correct, bit puzzled why this wouldn't work for you? Although I'm always using the same shortcuts if you are not a shortcut-lover you can of course use the Character accordion as well.

    Thanks for the replies. Not sure how I missed this...

    I guess I'm so used to working in Flash.

    Hi Dan

    Works for me. And it works like I would expect it to in Word or any other application.

    Select the text and press Ctrl+B to make it bold. Ctrl+U to make it underlined.

    Cheers... Rick
