Blank boxes when I insert question slides.

I posted this yesterday and no one replied... Hopefully
someone can give me some advice. Thanks!!
I am trying to create a new project in CP3 and once I publish
the project, there are 2 blank boxes on each slide and the movie
stops on the second slide. These projects consist of 8 PPT slides,
7 image slides, and 5 questions slides... and this project is
narrated. I have tried creating the project again hoping the blank
boxes would go away and that didn't work. So I published this
module one slide at a time to try and determine the root of the
problem. I can publish all 15 slides of images and PPT as a SWF
file with no problem. But once I insert question slides, that's
when the blank boxes appear and the module stops on slide 2. I
think this is odd considering my question slides are the last 5
slides of the module but the blank boxes start on slide one. When
previewing each slide, each 5 slides, or the entire project, there
are no problems. It's just once I publish the project. I've tried
publishing to SWF file and a stand alone disc.. same problem. I
also tried bringing up a module I had done before on CP1 and
converted the files, made no changes to the project and just
published it with CP3 as SWF file. I got the blank boxes and the
project stopped at the second slide. The question slides I have are
simple T/F or multiple choice slides and I don't have them set up
to record results.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I've published about 25 of
these modules in CP1 and never had this problem in the past. I
would be happy to send someone an example of what I'm talking
about.
Thanks!

Thanks for responding. No, I don't have any interaction on
the project. I even tried to create a new project and inserted 2
PPT slides (with text only) and then one question slide... I just
made up a simple T/F question just to have a question slide in that
project and once I published it, it happened again. If I deleted
that question slide and published, the blank boxes were gone and it
didn't freeze up.
I was on the phone all morning with Adobe support and they
suggest I reinstall the software. All software disks for my company
are located at home office so once I receive the software tomorrow,
I'll try it again. If that doesn't work, I'll certainly appreciate
any help.
Thanks!

  • Blank box when opening pdf within a webpage

    Often, but not always, but TOO often, when I try to open a pdf document within a webpage, the pdf is shown as blank white and a single blank box pops up.  The only option is to hit OK, which doesn't do anything.  There's no error code or message.  Just a blank box.  It was happening with google chrome so I went to internet explorer and it was okay, but now it does it there too.  It even happens with my stamps.com account which connects to the internet but I would hardly consider it a browser.  I use Windows 7 and Acrobat 9 Pro.  Somebody PLEASE help me!  I've had this problem for weeks... but it's inconsistent - like one time out of twenty there's not a problem at all.  Maybe it's a compatibility issue?  Is there some kind of upgrade that will solve the problem?  Any input is appreciated!

      What version of Acrobat 9?
    Or, which "dot version"? Adobe's Acrobat support of Windows 7 begins with dot version 9.2.

  • Problem translating click/highlight boxes when copy and pasting slides from another project

    I'm baffled by this problem as it doesn't seem to make sense. I opened up a new project to record a simulation in and when I was done, I copy and pasted all the slides into the appropriate section in my "Master Project" if you will. After the paste, I noticed that all the clickboxes and highlight boxes I had taken the time to carefully resize were all out of wack in terms of position. Here's the kicker, I opened up a blank project and copy/pasted the same slides...this time the click and highlight boxes were in the correct position. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Neel

    Oh, 'in terms of position'... I see...
    Is the one project larger than the other? For example, the original perhaps at 800x600 and the new at 850x650?
    Positioning may then be off relatively....
    Pick a couple sample elements and note their x/y positions from the Properties panel in the first project (under 'Transform' in CP 5.5).
    After pasting into the new, note those same x/y positions.
    Is there a noticable factor?
    If this is the issue, be sure the sizes are the same, do the paste, then expand the project later (and maybe everything will retain its anchors?)
    I've not seen this occur in newer versions of CP.
    You could try checking the 'Constrain Proportions' option in the properties of the original, just in case that helps 'constrain the position' too...total guess...

  • Buttons on Question Slides

    When I use question slides I find that the "Insert >
    Button" feature is greyed out. Is this intended or some kind of
    glitch?

    I scornett
    This is designed behavior. Buttons, Click Boxes and Text
    Entry Boxes are all interactive objects and are not available for
    insertion into question slides. These beasties have buttons of
    their own that are controlled in other ways.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Introduction on Question Slide

    Complete newbie to message boards so please be gentle. I'll
    try not to break to many rules of etiquette. I have dove in with
    both feet having given up the rather limited add on to a popular
    presentation program for the wildly superior Captivate 2.
    ANYWAY, when I add a question slide to a presentation, (I
    downloaded a template to start the project, though I don't know if
    that has any impact at all.) it has the word, "Introduction" right
    in the upper left quadrant. Obviously it is there when I publish. I
    can't send it to the back, I can't send other stuff in front of it,
    I can't highlight and delete it, I can't move it, I can't shrink
    it, I can't do anything with it but glare and curse my ignorance.
    I am going to contract for training for my whole group (5 of
    us.) soon, but like many other projects they needed one person who
    could do this work yesterday and for my meager Producer experience
    they tapped me. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers.

    WOW, yes, apparently somewhere around slide 3, (Way back in a
    75 slide project.) there was a text box I placed there and somehow
    clicked to dsiplay for "Rest of project", rather than "Rest of
    Slide" when I inserted a new question slide it just plopped that
    text box in there.
    I am a bit fuzzy on whether the text box defaults on a
    question slide, or whether ANY new slide would have that.
    Experimenting on that question will be for another day. Thanks
    Captiv8r, awesome pickup!

  • Navigation issues with question slides in Captivate 6

    In earlier versions of Captivate (5.5) we have always been able to insert question slides into our projects as checkpoints and allow the user to freely navigate through the project and answer the checkpoint questions as often as they like. We have also been able to provide success and failure feedback popups for those question.
    In Captivate 6 we are seeing that question slides can apparently only be answered once and do not reset to be answered again the next time the user navigations to those slides. We want to allow the user to answer checkpoint questions as often as they like and we need to be able to provide success and failure feedback popups. We have tried every imaginable combination of setting with no success. Has anyone else been experiencing this or have a solution to this problem?
    Thanks,
    Vernon . . .

    When I run the same projects with the exact same settings side by side in Captivate 5 and Captivate 6, in the Cap 5 project I can navigate the project freely and answer the checkpoint questions repeatedly as often as I like. As I navigate the questions are reset and can be answered again every time I enter the question slides.
    In Cap 6 the questions are locked after the first answer and cannot be answered a second time. Even stranger is the fact that when tested using only a subset of the slides adjacent to the question slide (next 3) it works and does appear to reset the question allowing repeated answers, but it fails when the entire project is run.
    I have asked our other developers to test this and they are experiencing the same problem with their projects.
    The only difference I can see between the two projects is that the Quiz results slide in Cap 6 cannot be deleted whereas it does not exist in the Cap 5 project ???

  • Itunes help opens blank box

    When I click on itunes help I get a blank box, also a blank box when I click on keyboard shortcuts in help menu. Help Window opens and I when I click itunes and ipod help the box opens but nothing responds except web related options.This started after I installed IView Media Pro. I tried Permissions Repair in Utilities and also tried to reinstall itunes 7.
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  

    jdspdx,
    Welcome to Discussions.
    Probably one of the preferences files of the Help Viewer is corrupted.
    Go to /Users/YourUsername/Library/Preferences and remove these files:
    com.apple.help.plist
    com.apple.helpui.plist
    com.apple.helpviewer.plist
    Then choose the Help function of iTunes again.
    Hope this helps.

    TV video typically is copyrighted content.  We'd be breaking several rules trying to help you.  Good luck!

  • This Question is at least 2.5 years old.  But still an issue.  I have an early 2008 and mid 2010 13 inch macbook pro running iTunes 10.7.  Itunes on both machines doesn't recognize blank cds or allow me to import from a music cd when I insert it.

    iTunes does not use the .xml it uses the .itl
    If you are sure your old library file migrated across (does the file size and modification dates suggest it has?) start iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and guide it to the .itl file to get it to use that one.

  • Background colours disappear when question slide added in C4

    I recently updgraded to Captivate 4. Since the upgrade I have encountered this problem. I am importing slides from power point. Some of the slides have a blue background. When I add a question slide in C4, the blue background does not show up when I Preview in web browser or Publish the file. The blue background is still there if I don't add any question slides. Any ideas on what is going on and how to prevent my blue backgrounds from disappearing?

    Sorry... I was in the process of doing it yesterday, but here's what I did.
    I have two versions of Captivate in my laptop, Captivate 3 & 5.
    1. I opened Captivate 3 and started a project
    2. Create a question pool in Captivate 3
    3. I inserted a powerpoint slide with my gif animation in the slide
    NOTE: If you want your gif to loop continuously, you must make sure you pause the project in Captivate before the end of the slide.  It will not work if you extend the slide duration.
    4. After importing the ppt slide with looping gif animation in captivate 3, I copied the slide (make sure you're not copying the invisible click box) and pasted it on top of each question in the pool.
    5. Go to your timeline and send the slide to the background if necessary.
    6. Line up/design your question slides.
    7. Save and close the project.
    8. Find the project and open with > Captivate 5
    Your question pool should retain the animation.
    I am working on creating a "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" game.  I've seen it done before, but it always looks amateur.  I wanted to do something more polished, with nicer graphics, appropriate sound effects and good transition slides.  The gif animation is of two moving spotlights on the background of every question screen.  I'd be happy to share a sample if I knew where to upload it to.

  • Inserting a Question Slide

    I am trying to insert a question slide, but it keeps defaulting to insertion as slide 9 when I need it to be later in the slide deck.  I cannot seem to move the slide to where I need it either.  Can someone help me fix this, please?

    Hi There,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    Can you tell me the version of Captivate You are using (Go to Help > About Adobe Captivate) ?
    Have you tried the same with a new Blank Project ?
    Try to Copy and Paste all the slides in a new Blank project of same resolution and then check .
    Thanks and Regards

  • Multiple fill blank objects on one question slide?

    Hellou CP users, is it possible to put multiple fill blank objects on one question slide? And if, how can I manage them for quiz reporting and correct results?
    Yarik

    I think indeed that you want a score for each fill-in-the-blank object, and that is not possible with the default FIB question slides. Only MCQ has partial scoring.
    With TEB's and advanced actions that is possible. Also with the TextArea widget, as I explained in this blog post:
    http://blog.lilybiri.com/widgets-and-custom-questions-part-2
    http://blog.lilybiri.com/extended-textarea-widget-more-functionality
    TEB's have the advantage that as interactive objects, you can attach a score to them which is not the case for the TextArea widgets. But I would recommend getting Jim Leichliter's enhanced version of the TEB's as well, so that you can control what is shown in the TEB if you want to create a question with multiple attempts. I have described a use case recently in these forums but cannot remember exactly which thread. Jim's widget is free:

  • Hello guys I have a question,or rather a problem. how can I detach yourself iPhone operator Verizon USA? I mean as to call and what to say? I live in Ukraine, and the opportunity came up for to buy cheap 4S 16GB. but on Verizon. when I insert the original

    Hello guys I have a question,or rather a problem. how can I detach yourself iPhone operator Verizon USA? I mean as to call and what to say? I live in Ukraine, and the opportunity came up for to buy cheap 4S 16GB. but on Verizon. when I insert the original SIM card Verizon and I try to activate, says: (error occurred activation, if this problem happen again please call at +1................). this is the hour to use it through the R-SIM 9 pro. everything works нормальнои calls and Internet and SMS, but I want to officially unlock. beforehand thank you

    Well, you managed to find this support forum didn't you and you have an internet connection don't you?  Then if you have all these things, go and find the number by going to the Verizon website and it should not be hard to find the number.
    As for speaking English, this is not really our problem and it is surely something that you should have thought about before buying the phone in the first place.
    You also need to know that Verizon in the US is a cdma operator and if you purchased an iPhone 4s, then it should not be locked.  The Verizon 4s comes with a sim card tray that should be unlocked out of the box for use internatinoally on gsm networks, so all you should need to do is open the sim card tray and insert a sim card and you should pick up the local gsm network.
    A cdma phone does not actually use a sim card, so there would be no original sim card with the phone because when it is used in the US it will pick up the Verizon cdma network without a sim card.  The sim card is only for use on a gsm network which will not work in the US, but is designed to work outside the US.  Open the sim card tray and insert your own local sim card and the phone should work and should not be locked.
    Other than this, if you purchased the phone in the first place, it is the responsibility of the previous owner to cancel the Verizon contract.  This is nothing to do with you, so contact the seller and ask them.
    Other wise, go to the Verizon website and look up the number and call them.  As they are the phone company, ultimately, they are the only ones who can help you.

  • In Question slide, When I enable the next button, the button look faded off in HTML 5 output.

    Hi,
    I am enabling the next button in Captivate 7 quiz slide. I am using these slides as CYUs. When I publish the slides, the web version looks fine, but the HTML 5 output shows the next button with faded look. I tried creating a new quiz slide from a separate file and inserting here. still the same issue is cropping. Please help in resolving this issue.
    Given the image for reference.

    Thank you Rod.... I changed the option to "Required - User must take the quiz to continue." Now the next is working .
    Thank you for pointing the right direction. But one quick question.. will the above setting affect my assessment? I have set the pass percentage to 100%...
    My next question - I have a open course menu (TOC). If the learner clicks the Knowledge check page, the knowledge check page is visible, but if you click any other page from knowledge check, it is not going...... by default, it takes to the next page. From that page, you can click any other page... IS this also related to the above option .. pls let me know..
