Adobe Captivate Help | Text captions

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/text-captions.html

Hi there
If you are trying to adjust margins or images of captions you have already used, the process is futile because once used, these are now cached inside the project file and subsequent changes have no effect.
What you can do to overcome it is to create a totally new caption set using the images and margin settings you want. Then when you use that set it will be copied into the project and become available.
If you aren't totally sure yet about margins or images, create a blank project. Tweak and use. Look ok? great! Look bad? Scrap the project, tweak the images or settings, then create another new blank project and test.
Cheers... Rick

    Is the Scrolling List interaction just a fancy way of displaying content versus a traditional text caption? Thank you.

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/microsoft-powerpoint.html

    Hi there,
    Captivatge 7 will not recognize the objects of imported Power point Slide to be used in Drag and Drop wizard.
    If you want to insert drag and drop interaction as a part of quiz, then you will have to insert Captivate objects on that slide, like : Text Captions, Smart Shapes (not used as button), or images etc., then launch Drag and Drop interaction wizard, and also minimum two objects should be there on that slide, one as source and other as destination.
    It does not matter if the Power Point presentation is linked or not, (if linked option would be checked then the later changes made in the presentation in MS Power Point can be updated in Captivate), so linked has no relation with it.
    Thanks.

  • Is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate help?

    Hi guys,
    is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate specific help? I've posted a question twice with no help, it's very specific, so no one here might actually know the solution. I'm wondering though, since the chat is obviously not for Captivate users with product or service questions.
    Is there a tech team I can somehow contact? We really need an answer to the problem.
    Thanks,
    Nat
    P.S. I'll post the problem again here:
    We publish mp4 training videos as HTML5 content and have the problem that we need to restrict the player to only play/pause.
    Adobe Captivate 7 works fantastic for us on almost all devices, many Androids, many browsers, and even on iPad. Captivate, after adding the video as a multi-slide video to one slide and publishing it as HTML5 content, only lets the student play and pause the video - just what we need.
    But then we test it on iPhone and the iPhone's internal quicktime player recognizes the mp4 video and kicks in, gives the student all the functions they want, totally overrides the HTML5 published Captivate restricted playback options.
    Is there ANY way we can get around that? Any function or box we haven't checked before publishing the HTML5 content?
    We would even be happy, if the video wouldn't play on iPhone - just as long as they can't use it to fast forward to the end of the video.
    Does anyone here know how to bypass the internal iPhone 5 player?
    Thanks,
    Nat

    By the way, I have updated to the newest Captivate 7 version and am using iOS version 7.0.4.
    Again, it's fine on iPad, but not on iPhone 5.

  • Adobe Captivate Help | Insert audio

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/insert-audio.html

    From the manual:
    "You can attach an audio file to a button or click box and have the audio play when the user clicks the button or click box instead of when the button or click box is displayed. To do this, create the button or click box and select the Success Caption option. Make the Success Caption transparent and do not add any text. Add an audio file to the Success Caption."
    Is this the method for adding audio to a smart shape, click box, or any other element? If so, I got as far as the last sentence: "Add an audio file to the Success Caption." That's what I want to know how to do -- add audio so that when a little smart shape is clicked, it plays a sound. I don't know why I'm having such a hard time finding the instructions for something so basic.
    Any help appreciated!!

    Hi there,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums!
    1.You can download Neo Speech voices from here:

    Windows 64-bit: http://www.adobe.com/go/captivate_voices_installer_win64
    2. After the Downloading is completed, you have to extract that .zip file to the same location. That will have one payloads folder and AdobePatchinstaller.exe, Double click on AdobePatchinstaller.exe to start the installation.
    3. While installing it will start the Adobe Application Manager to Update Captivate.
    Please reply if that helps.
    Thanks.

  • Adobe Captivate Help | Shared actions (Cp 7)

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/shared-actions.html

    In the Help-document about Shared Actions this described work flow 'To apply the same shared action to multiple objects, group them and then apply the action." seems not to be functional. For a group or for a selection of objects (of the same type) the option 'Execute Shared Action' is grayed out, only a normal action seems to be possible. Is this a bug in the documentation?

  • Adobe Captivate 6: Text Entry Box

    When a student add text into a Text Entry Box on slide one, how can his/her text be shown in following slides (slide2).
    Example: each user will have the ability to put his/her own text in the Text Entry Box on slide one.
    Can the text be temperaly stored and shown again?
    Thanks to help me out on this :-)

    Hi Neil, I hope you don't mind me adding some tips? Do not type in the variable, but insert it in the text container (can be a shape as well, not only a caption) using the X button in the Format accordion of that text container. Variables are case sensitive, and that will avoid possible typos. Really I discourage always typing in the variable name between $$
    Another tip: TEB's have an automatically generated associated variable, that has the same name as the TEB (I dislike that a lot, because mostly you cannot use the same name for two different objects). You could also use your custom name, there is another X button in the TEB properties, next to that generic name.

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/drag-and-drop-interaction.html

    Yep.  But it will only likely get to you in the next version released for NON subscription or ASA customers.  With 6.1 Adobe was giving a preview of the functionality they would be including in your next release.  Either way, whether you upgraded to the subscription edition or waited for the next paid upgrade, you were always going to be paying something to get this new functionality.  6.1 users just got it earlier than everyone else.  That was Adobe's decision.  It certainly hasn't been a popular one.
