Best Resolution for an iPad using Captivate 7

I'm using Captivate 7 and choose the preset iPad landscape resolution for the project.  The Captivate manual states to use the preset iPad sizes to yield the best results.  However, the module is too big for the iPad screen.  I found an older posting that recommended using 980 X 660 for an iPad and provided this link as a general resolution resource.  Before I continue to build more modules, can anyone share some advice?  Are there different size iPad screens that are causing this issue?  I'm I missing something obvious?
Thanks.

Hi Dee Gee,
    The best ipad lanscape project size : 1024 X 627  (with CpPlaybarMobile)
    The best ipad Potrait project size : 768 X 883  (with CpPlaybarMobile)
For example
Captivate Project dimensions in  landscape mode width = 1024
Captivate Project dimensions in  landscape mode height = View Port size of the ipad in landscape mode - Playbar size (we suggest to use CpPlaybarMobile, whose height is 45 pixels) - space occupied by navigation bar+ browser bar(96)
Captivate project dimension height = 768 - 45 -96 = 627
To find out viewport size of a device, check it out on viewportsizes.com
Thanks,
Sankaram.

    Hi !
    Someone can tell me what is the best resolution for E540 windows 7? (The recomended is 1920x1080, But I don't like it...).

    If the iPad is unopened, and in the original box, then it comes with the full warranty. However, if it is used, and comes with an original box, it may or may not have the original warranty; if there's still some warranty left, the original seller should have transferred the warranty to you.

    The only way you can add to your warranty is by extending an Applecare contract.

  • How do you create a save as default folder for MP3 files used Captivate text to audio voices files?

    How do you create a save as default folder for MP3 files used Captivate text to audio voices files?

    Hi Ed
    Thank you for contacting me, however I already know how to save text to
    audio files via timeline using the Export feature.
    So my question was not entirely clear and I apologize for that.  To explain
    further, whenever I save a text to audio file, captivate takes me to a
    default save as folder where I then have browse back to my production
    folder where I am keeping all my Txt to Aud files.  This is very tedious
    process when you have alot of files to save.  So my question was is there a
    way to configure captivate so I can make my production folder the default
    file for whenever I save a Txt to Audio file through Export feature that
    the system automatically takes me to that production folder, and I am
    spared the long tedious process of saving the file manually to the
    prodcution folder I want.
    I have copy the pathway to the production folder in the URL filed in the
    Save As dialoge box and that workaround as cut the work down but I still
    have to paste that URL field to point the file to the right folder. So it
    would be nice if I could do everything automatically.  Microsoft makes this
    capability in their MS Office applications, so I was thinking Adobe might
    do the same thing.  Your help with this would be appreicated,
    Thanks

    There is a manual for iOS 6 for the iPhone which might be better than nothing : http://support.apple.com/manuals/ipad/#iphone

  • What is the best resolution for pics in the drop zones of idvd?

    What is the best resolution for pics in the drop zones of iDVD?
    Also: iDVD always seems to align a pic to the left, can I change this anywhere?
    thanks

    Hello, Hans.
    Re: drop zone pic resolution - I generally don't go below 1000 pixels wide (iDVD will resize these images to a slightly smaller format, but I've controlled the largest part of the downsizing in Photoshop Elements).
    The alignment in iDVD is goofy.  The best I've achieved is trial and error -- adding blank background or cropping my image in the downsizing process (see above) to position my image.

  • Best Practices for Team Collaboration using Adobe Captivate

    With a team of 6 Instructional Designers, how can Adobe Captivate be approached where we can collaborate while producing e-learning material while maintaining a consistent look and feel of the e-learning we produce?
    What are the best practices for a team of 6 IDs working and creating e-learning material in Captivate?  Is there anything build-in that allows us to connect to the same libraries, templates, etc to share?  
    Please advise.
    Thank you!
    Susanne

    Only some tips, never collaborated with someone else, being the solo teacher. You didn't mention which version you are using, what I write here is meant for CP7.
    Be sure to prepare a theme and/or a template that will be used by everyone. A theme consists of master slides, object styles, skin editor. Master slides can have custom navigation shape buttons.  In a template you can eventually also prepare different slides with placeholders, and eventually advanced actions etc. For CP6 and earlier that is the only way to reuse advanced actions, in Captivate 7 you can export shared actions that can be imported in any project for reuse.
    A feature that few users know about are the external libraries. You can open the library of any project as an external library in another project. That is a good idea to store assets that you want to use in different projects: images, audio clips, video clips, eventually equations. The shared actions in a library can not (yet?) be used in another project however.
    If you are on CP7 you have automatically the roundtripping with source Adobe Photoshop files and source Audition files, both from CC. That can also make collaboration lot easier if those assets are prepared in those applications. Will not expand on that, because I'm not sure you have the Creative Cloud applications.
    Those are my two cents.

  • What is the best resolution for adding and viewing pictures/images in ibooks?

    I'm trying to add pictures/images and I was wondering what the best resolution is for viewing?  Any help would be great.

    iBook Author seems to scale the images automagically during the book generation, so targeting iPad's native resolution should be fine.
    Havign said that, I'm currently creating art based on the assumption the next generation of the device will have double resolution screen, so a photograph should be scaled to 2048x1536 pixels if you want it to be full screen at 1:1 pixel mapping.
    If you're creating widgets, the art (probably) won't be scaled, and you'll need to use the pixel dimensions you want the art to appear on screen.

  • Best resolution for different screen sizes?

    Hi,
    I just created a project and several of the viewers complained that they had to scroll horizontally in order to view the movie.
    What is the best resolution to record my next project in so as to ensure that no user will have to scroll (neither vertically or horizontally) to see the contents?
    Alternatively, is there some type of feature that automatically adjusts the contents to the viewer's screen?
    Thanks very much in advance.

    Hi there
    I think many folks use 800x600 as a common size.
    Choosing the "Best" resolution is nearly always a bit of an art form. You need to consider the lowest common denominator. For example, are your tutorials intended for senior citizens? If so, then you need to consider that they may be running an older computer configured for a smaller resolution.
    There are ways to coax the video to play back at whatever resolution is available, but they all will involve a sacrifice in quality. This is because any time you play back your project at a different size than it was recorded, the quality will suffer. The degree to which it suffers depends entirely on how much scaling is happening. Scale just a little and it's not too bad. Scale a lot and things go downhill.
    One way to allow scaling is to link to the .SWF instead of the .HTM that is produced. Another way is to edit the HTML page Captivate creates. Remove the pixel values and insert percentages.
    Cheers... Rick

  • What are the proper settings to encode for the iPad using compressor?

    I'd like to use 1080p the specs say it is capable of.
    I can get it working using hand brake but I don't see why I can't do it with compressor.

    The official specs for the iPad 2 do not include the 1080p video format so your not going to find a 1080p preset in Apple's Compressor that is marked for use with any iOS device. Apple states the following in the iPad 2 specs:
    "Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format"
    However, the iPad 2 CAN mirror or scale up to a 1080p TV output and that's all they mean when they say:
    "Video mirroring and video out support: Up to 1080p with Apple Digital AV Adapter or Apple VGA Adapter (cables sold separately)"
    In any case, all of the A4/A5-based iOS devices can (unofficially) decode 1080p video but for quality results you do need the iPad 2 (the iPhone 4, 4th generation iPod touch, and the original iPad can decode some 1080p sources but you may see dropped frames or stuttering on those "lesser" devices).
    As for creating 1080p content you can use whatever tools you want (just select 1920x1080 as the dimensions, use an H.264 codec, and restrict the bitrate to something between 4 to 10Mbps -- you may need to experiment with the latter to find the best results). However, you MIGHT need a third-party app to actually transfer and play that content on your iPad since iTunes MAY not allow you to directly sync that file to your iPad (because it exceeds the "official" spec).

  • Best Resolution for 8" Digital Photo Frame

    What is best resolution to scan 2-1/4" medium format B&W negative film for display on an 8" DPF with a resolution of 800x600 pixels?

    Thank you for your post and welcome to the forum.
    120 film inherently will have a lot of detail on it (after all it's still used by professionals) so you don't want to miss anything - 3200 dpi is probably a good setting for a scanner. It's always best to have a high resolution master which you can make smaller sized copies of afterward.

  • Any best practices for the iPad mini????

    I am in the beginning stages of designing my mag for the iPad.... now the iPad mini seems to be all the hype and the latest news states that the mini may out sell the larger one.
    So... I know that the dimensions are 1x1 on bumping down to the smaller screen... but what about font sizes? what about the experience? Anyone already ahead of the game?
    I have my own answers to these questions, but any one out there have some best practice advice or links to some articles they find informative...

    I think 18-pt body text is fine for the iPad 2 but too small for the iPad mini. Obviously, it depends on your design and which font you're using, but it seems like a good idea to bump up the font size a couple points to account for the smaller screen.
    For the same reason, be careful with small buttons and small tap areas.
    I've also noticed that for whatever reason, MSOs and scrollable frames in PNG/JPG articles look great on the iPad 2 but look slightly more pixelated on the iPad Mini. It might just be my imagination.
    Make sure that you test your design on the Mini.
