I have images on a slide that appear a specific times along the timeline. They appear in sync with a video that plays at the start of the slide. On the main menu a button is pressed to jump to the slide with the images and video. When I Project>Preview, I press the button to jump to the slide, but the time from the time of clicking on the button to when the slide begins is several seconds. When the slide plays, the video plays, but there is a now a delay for the images to appear, the video and images are not out of sync. I'm concerned due to the lenght of video (6 minutes) and number of images (36), its taking too long to load. It there a fix to this. I use png images, and I try to keep their files size to to a miminum. Thank you.

I trying to accomplish a similar problem. I trying to pause the slide and also the video at specific locations during the slide. I have a variable that displays frame number cpinfocurrentFrame, and I have a button with AA Pause. When the button is pressed, the play stops and I see where the current position along the timeline. Unfortunately, the video continues to play. I'm trying to include in the AA commands that would stop the video as well as pause the slide. This will allow me to display images in sequence with the video. Any suggestions. Thanks.

I have a slide which has a number of images and text that I grouped together. I called this group "grp_01" . I created an advanced action to hide grp_01 when a button is pushed. Now I added more text objects to the slide. I would like to add this new text objects to the "grp_o1", but I'm not sure if there is an easy method to accomplish this. Right now, I ungroup the "grp_01" and select the items to be group, and then Group Cnt+G. But the reference to Grp_01 in the advanced action is gone. Is there method of adding an item to a group without having to perform an ungroup? Thanks.

I created an Advanced Action (AA) to change the stage of an image. The image has six states: Normal, State1, State2 , State3, State4, State5 and state6. I want to have a button that would execute the AA which will change the image state from Normal to State1, and when the learner presses the same button again the state will change from State1 to State2. Can this be done with one button?

Lilybiri, Thank you. I put a blank slide after the one that I need to reset. I put an invisible button over the button that needs to reset the animation. At the end of the animation, the AA shows the button, the user thinks their clicking on the same button, but the reset button jumps to the next page, and on the next page is an AA to go to previous.

HI, I have a slide where the learner will click on a button and the advance action (AA)for the button will show an object (Red Arrow), and after a brief delay the arrow will move from Right to Left. Then, after the arrow has completed the move, the next AA will hide the arrow. I want to program an AA to reset the arrow to its original location so the person can replay the action again. Is this possible? Thanks.

Thank you for the information. I learned that after working with CP support, that because my Next button which is appears at the end of the timeline was grouped with Back button, the "Pause After" did not function. The slide did not advance to the next slide, but the audio for the next slide did played. As suggested by CP support, I ungrouped the buttons and the problem went away. CP support told me that grouping buttons will somehow inactivate the "Pause After" function. I thought this was strange, but after ungrouping the buttons the problem did go away.

I have an audio file on each slide in my project. I have noticed that when the presentation on the slide has finished, and the audio for that slide stops, the audio file which is is assigned to the next slide begins playing. This happens before I press the NEXT button to advance to the next slide. Has anyone else experienced this bug?

When I publish a project: Publish to Computer>Publish, in the directory is a "goodbye.html" file with the text "Thank you for exiting the content. You may now navigate away from this content." When the lesson is done and the student clicks the Exit button, the Goodbye.html is viewed. Where is this html file generated in CP9, and can I edit the text? Thanks. I know I can open a external html editor and modify the file, I would like to know if this can be accomplished in CP9. Thanks.

Have you tried extending the timeline the play length of the video, and then at the end of timeline have the next button appear? For example for a 3 minute video have the timeline extended to 3 minutes 5 seconds. At 3 minutes 2 seconds have the next button appear. Make adjustments to the timeline as necessary.

I want to know if this is possible. The star is a drag object and has 4 different (Fill colors)states: Red (Normal), Blue, Green, Yellow. Then the button is clicked, Advanced action changes the state of the star. I want the drop box to accept the star when the state is Normal (Red), and reject the star when the state is either Blue, Green or Yellow. Change this be accomplished? Thanks.

Thank you for the quick response. I did put a button on the slide, but I rather not have it shown until the student has completed the word search. I wanted to create an conditional AA to listen for the conclusion window and then if conclusion window is shown, then the next button which is invisible would then be visible. But since this is a static widget, I guess this cannot happen.

I have been working with the Word Search Widget, and would like to know the best method of advancing to the next page when the widget is complete. Currently, when the word search is complete, it does not go to the next slide. I see nothing in the widget properties related to advanced to next slide when completed. What is the best method of advancing to the next slide after the word search widget complete? Thanks.

I'm using Cp 9 ver. 9.0.2.241 and I have several drag and drop interactions. My drag objects are a specific size ( 44px X 140px). When I inspect the project in Preview>Project the drap objects change size. They are now (55xp X 140px) The height changes, but not the width. Since this is a responsive project, I can clinic on the screen size formats at the top of the screen that adjust the screen to represent the different devices. When I do this, I click on the tablet size, and the drag objects return to their correct dimensions. I click back to the desktop size, and the drag object stay at the dimensions as in the authoring mode 44px X 140px. What is causing this? Thanks.

Ron, you were correct. After I asked my web IT guy to include json mme types, the files work fine. Thanks. You solved the problem that two calls to Adobe support could not. I not sure if there is a check list that can be accessed by Cp users listing the necessary steps to make sure published projects function correctly when uploaded to servers.

I did receive a error message from FireFox: "Script:Http//www.mywebsite.com/test/cp1/assets/js/CPM.js1" A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding, Is there a change in file: CPM.js?

I have similar issues. Are you using conditional actions in your projects? When saving Captivate 8 projects in Captivate 9, Captivate 9 changes Conditional Actions to Standard Actions. This renders the project useless. This is a major bug in the program, and I have contacted Adobe about this.

I'm coming across another issue with Captivate 9. I import SVG images into the library, and I see a message "1 items successfully imported", but the name of the image does not appear in the Library. I have used the button at the top, Media>SVG and the image appears on the slide, but the name does not appear in the Library. When I use the import icon located in the library, the explorer directory opens, I select the SVG image and click open. Once again, a pop up window appears, "1 item has been successfully imported", but the name of the image does not show up in the library.

This bug has been driving me nuts. I can't use Captivate 9 until the problem is resolved. I have lots of conditional actions in my files, and I can't spend the hours fixing the broken AA. Do I have to open every conditional action, edit and update the conditional action in my project? I have many, or do I have to just perform this change on one conditional action? Thanks,

I have a project with 21 slides. When I "Preview From this Slide", the slide works fine. But, when I "Preview Project" and enter the slide, an image from Slide 16 is shown in Slide 20. This is wrong, why would Captivate move images around arbitrarily?

To the best of my ability, I look for all of these issues. There were no yellow exclamation marks, or missing operators. I quit, and reentered the Advanced Actions, did the same process, but this time no error messages.

I'm adding Advanced Actions to my Captivate project. I create a Action Type, and When I click on the button "Update Action" I get the error message "The script is Incomplete". But it does not identify where the error is, so it is difficult to know where to make the necessary correction. How do I find the error when I get this message. Thanks.
