Can I nsert text in "build" slides

Some of the slides I use in my presentation "builds" require explanatory text. I find nothing to help me in the Help section or tutorial. Anyone have any idea how to do this?

I have frequently inserted text on the builds. Type your text on a shape than copy and paste it where you would place the photo in the build. Works great every time and with any action.

How can I make text slide in from the right?

I'm really enjoying learning more with Captivate 6 and the community has been very helpful so far. I can't figure out how to get very simple text effects/transitions such as bringing text from the side of the frame to "slide" into place. This has been a text effect of every program for a decade, is this basic transition available in 6? I'm making a list on a few screens and would very much like the text to simply slide in from the right.
I'm about to just make a transparent png with the text to accomplish this for now considering it's my best bet. Any information would be handy. Thanks!

Apparently if your resolution is too low or the workspace isn't allowing "space" for a full effects window to show up, the whole thing shows up blank and grey. How obnoxious! By closing my properties tab on the right (after many other fixes including making those pngs) it showed up.

How can I adjust text size in ibooks dictionary?

How can I adjust text size in ibooks dictionary?

Hello Eoradec2012,
It sounds like you are using the Define function in iBooks and you are wanting to increase the size of the font on the page showing the definition. The size of that text can be controlled in the Text Size section:
To adjust the font size, follow these steps:
Go to Settings > General > Text Size.
Drag the slider to the preferred size. The text on the screen will adjust as you move the slider.

Also, when posting your code, please use code tags so that your code will retain its formatting and be readable. To do this, either use the "code" button at the top of the forum Message editor or place the tag [code] at the top of your block of code and the tag [/code] at the bottom, like so:
[code]
// your code block goes here.
// note the differences between the tag at the top vs the bottom.
[/code]or
{code}
// your code block goes here.
// note here that the tags are the same.
{code}Good luck.

Design View - Can't Select Text, Only Divs

This is a page I did not build, and I hope I can describe this properly. Here's the published page -
www.wheeltime.com
I'm in CS4 and there are two things going on when trying to edit in design view. The first is I can't select text of content. Clicking to select said content, say a line of text or a word, selects and highlights the entire div container and all the content within in one big chunk. Why is DW not letting me select the actual content? This is the first time I've enver encountered this issue.
This is the same for all the div ontainers on the page. But another, perhaps related problem, has to do with this content area. In design view, there's a fixed height, so not only can I not select the content, but I can't see it all. It's OK in the browser, expands as it should. I've looked at all the properties anywhere and don't see any height attribute anywhere, especially those that enclose this area of content.
One this that has be wondering - this content area is warpped in a "main-content" div, with a class applied. But this div has no corresponding entry or properties in the style sheet. I can see where a div can be used that has no specific properies of it's own, but is it OK to not be mentioned at all in the style sheet? And can this affect what's going on in design view editing?
So, I guess the question is - what is governing this inability to edit in Design view? Thank you in advance!!

Have you tried double clicking the content?
I'm not sure what causes this exactly, but I downloaded your page and ran it in my DWCS4. It did the same thing until I double clicked the content of the divs. That allowed me to select it without issue from that point on.
It may have something to do with the content being wrapped in <span> tags within each <div>.
Onto your other question, your <div id="main-container"class="container"> is being affected by the .container class in your style.css file rather than a #main-container id.
EDIT: HTML id's like <div id="main-content"> serve to identify elements for many purposes, not just css. There is no problem with giving an element an id simply for organizational purposes, though usually they are used as targets for javascripts, css or php scripting purposes.

Multiple text boxes on slide not advancing properly

First let me say that this is my very first post - ever - anywhere. I don't even know if I'm 'posting' correctly, so please forgive me if I'm doing this wrong. I am brand new to Captivate (1 week), but am already under a work deadline to produce a CBL. I have built a very simple CBL and it works fine except for 1 problem. My CBL moves forward on its own, but if the user decides to click the 'forward' button on the navigation bar, it advances to the next slide instead of displaying the next text box within the current slide. I want to keep the navigation bar for those who read more quickly than others, this way they can advance the CBL at their own pace. For example, I have a slide with 3 text boxes. Each text box needs to be read in order. The first box appears and after so many seconds the first box disappears and the second box appears. Then the second box stays for so many seconds and disappears and the third box appears for so many seconds and then it advances to the next slide. However, after it's published, the first box appears and if you click the 'forward' button then it goes to the next slide (not the second text box on the current slide). I know there must be an easy solution to this and if I had the time to read more tutorials before my deadline, I'm sure it's listed in one of them. I would appreciate any help you can give me and again, I apologize if I've posted this in the wrong section or did not post this correctly. Thanks so much!

Hello,
Welcome on the forum.
The Next button on the playbar will always go to the next slide (or the previous slide for the Previous button).
If you really want a simple solution: put only one Text Caption per slide, time the slide for the duration of reading that Text Caption. To simulate your present situation, if you have 3 Text captions, put the first one on slide 1, copy it to slide 2 and add the second Text caption, etc. The 'quick' readers can use the button on the playbar to advance but they will be able to see all the Text Captions. Do hope this explanation makes sense: you are really splitting up your unique slide with 3 Text Captions in 3 slides.

How do I add text to individual slides in slideshow to make a caption?

How do I add text to individual slides in a slideshow in order to make a caption on each slide?

It will depend on the theme you are using for the slide show.
For some themes you can add custom text or metadata to the slide as captions, for example the "Classic" theme. Use the "Selected Slides" tab and enable "Text".

Is it possible to make a text box cycle/rotate through text, like a slide show does?

Is it possible to make a text box cycle through 3 or 4 separate pieces/groups of text, like a slide show does with photos? So that when I open my site a text area says "Statement 1", then 10 seconds later it changes to "Statement 2", then 10 seconds later it chagnes to "Statement 3", etc.
Its that possible with a text box? My desire is to have 3 or 4 testimonials that change every 10 seconds.
You can see that right now it's a single testimonial:

All help is appreciated
Thanks!

Right. Some plugins have zip file downloads while others are just copy & paste.
In DW, go to File > New > Blank page > JavaScript.
Copy & paste the Cycle plugin code into your new JS page.
SaveAs cycle.2.9.81.js in whichever site folder you normally keep scripts.
Link your HTML page to your new cycle script:
Insert > Script > Script (browse to folder containing your cycle script). Hit OK.
Don't forget to add a link to the jQuery core library, too. Plugins don't work without it.

Slideshow text for individual slides in LR 4.4

Is it possible to place text in individual slides in LR 4.4? If so, how? Currently have only been able to have text apply to all slides.

In slideshows you can display metadata fields as text - for instance <Title> or <Caption>.
Give each photo a different caption (do this in Libarary) then <Caption> in the slide show will display individual text for each photo.
Same goes for <Title>.

TS2755 I have a new iPhone 5 from T-Mobile. I can send simple texts just fine. However, I have to turn off wi-if and enabler cellular to send texts to more than one person or to attach a picture. Is there a way around this?

I have a new iPhone 5 from T-Mobile. I can send simple texts just fine. However, I have to turn off wi-if and enabler cellular to send texts to more than one person or to attach a picture. Is there a way around this?

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Exporting presentation to movie file: build/slide duration

I have been unable to find this in Keynote's help file.
When exporting a Keynote presentation to a self-playing movie file, you are asked to specify:
[1] Build duration
[2] Slide duration
I suppose this should be obvious, but I can't quite figure out what they mean with respect to a .mov file.

In case Brian's answer wasn't what you were looking for, in the self-playing mode, build duration refers to how long each animation build/slide transition should take, and slide duration determines how long a slide should stay on-screen once all transitions are completed on it.

I switched from an iPhone to a Droid and can't receive texts from iPhones now, help?

I switched from my iPhone 4s to a Droid and I do not have that phone anymore. I can not recieve texts from anyone with an iPhone and can not get in contact with my girlfriend or siblings now. I think their phones are trying to send their texts as iMessages to my phone that does not recieve iMessages. How can I just delete my Apple account and recieve texts again?

Sounds like you didn't turn of iMessage on your iPhone before making the switch. If you registered your iPhone with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it. Also, try changing the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage.

I have deleted everything off of my apple id account and i still can't get text on my droid device.

I got rid of my Iphone and got a new s4. Now that ios7 came out I can not get any texts from someone with ios7. I have deleted the phone from the apple id and changed my email. Still no texts. I had my friends delete my info, but still nothing. Their phones always try to send as imessage. The only time I can get a text from them is if they decide to turn off imessage. It is not possible to tell everyone to turn off imessage, so how do I fix my account to ios7 phones don't think i still have an iphone.
I know this has been a big problem and apple has been not fixed this known issue on a large scale, but i need to fix it for me and people i know.

Once you update your device to iOS7 it will not work with the older version of iTunes so it will not connect.
Is your contacts backed up to icloud? If so you can reset the phone and erase all content and restore information from icloud..
