Captivate 7 - Multiple Click Boxes not working

I would really appreciate some help on this. I've been reading the forums and it looks like this pops up again and again. I've tried some of the solutions, but I can't seem to make it work.
I have a slide with 8 click boxes on it. I would like for the user to click on box and then get a definition in the form of a text box. I'd like for them to be able to click on 1 box or all the boxes before they move on. I'd like for them to choose to move on with a "Continue" button that goes to the next slide.
On the preview playback, only 3 or 4 of the click boxes will work. Then, the click boxes stop working. It's not the same 3 or 4 boxes, but just the first ones that work. If I remove a pause on the continue button, it will work. Otherwise, it stops as well.
Initially, I tried to do this as a simple action. Then, I read that Advanced Actions will allow the playback to continue. The Advanced Action is 1 line that is Show and then the Text Box.
Below is my timeline. I'd appreciate help with this!

Did you see this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5826235#5826235 ?
What is the function of the Buttons on that slide (they have no pausing, are active all the time): especially the Last Attempt action?
What is the Last Attempt action for the click boxes?
Important: how did you preview?

Captivate 3 - click boxes not working when published

I have a fairly large Captivate 3 file (131 MB .cp, 77 slides, most w/ audio) that I received from a vendor and am making some final edits. When I preview "next 5 slides" everything works great. When I publish though, the click boxes aren't working. I hear the click sound, but the action (continue, jump to slide, etc) does not occur. My gut feeling is that the file is fairly large and certain functions aren't being properly published. I have done all I know to reduce the size of both the .cp and published files (image quality, audio quality, deleting unused items, remove Adobe Connect features, resave w/ new name, etc).
Anyone know a potential cause and solution?

Hi there,
I have seen many instances when click boxes won't work. In this first instance I would suggest thatyou try removing the click box on one of the slides, insert a new one, publish and see if this makes any difference.
If, not then try copying all of your slides from the existing project to a new file. If one of the slides does not copy across it might be that some part of the original project has become corrupted.
In most cases I have found that removing the original interactive object: Click box, Text Entry Box etc and manually replacing this with a new one tends to address this issue.
Let us know how you get on.

Click Box not working in Captivate 5

Why do simple things sometimes seem hard?? I have a click box created and set to "jump to slide x" when clicked. This is on a presentation imported from PP 2010 and using Captivate 5. When clicked in preview mode, the slide simply goes to the next screen rather than jumping to the one I want. I notice there is already a click box created automatically on every screen of the imported presentation. When I remove it, the presentation automatically goes to the next screen rather than waiting for the user to click to advance. I want it to advance by the user clicking the forward arrow in the player controls. If I leave it on screen, it seems to override my added click box. Here is what my click box settings are:
Here is what the click box looks like on the screen. You can see that I resized (moved out of the way) the large click box automatically created by Captivate:
This is using XP for a course that will be published in SCORM. As always, many thanks for helping!

Ah ha! Yes, I do have a quiz. 17 scored questions scattered throughout the course. Do I need to move the "jump to" slide before the last question then (or somewhere else as long as it's before the last question)?
Thanks!

Text Click box not working when using back button on playbar

I have an interstesting situation.
I have a slide that has 2 text clickboxes (Slide B)
Each text click box has an advanced action associated that controls what is displayed on the next slide (Slide C) . The click boxes and the advanced actions work just fine except for the following situation:
The learner is on Slide C and uses the 'back button' on the playbar to return to the slide where the two text click boxes are (Slide B), then the click boxes don't seem to work.
However if the learner goes back one additional slide, the slide before slide B (let's call that one slide A) and the continues from Slide A to Slide B, then the click boxes on Slide B work again.
Can't figure out why that is?
has anyone come across this issue before?

Not for native Captivate interactive objects that suffer with this limitation. There are interactive widgets such as the Infosemantics Event Handler that have preference options to Reset Success/Fail Criteria After Action.
You could download a trial version and give that a go:

You can attach this widget to any kind of screen object to make that object interactive.

Captivate 4 AS2 Text Entry Box not working with Flash Player 11

I am having issues with text entry boxes not working at all in flash 11. I am using Captivate 4 and exporting an AS2 swf. When you get to the slide you can type but you cannot see anything nor does the button or keystroke to move on. Also there is no cursor. Any ideas?

You said it is not working with Flash 11, so does that mean you tested with previous version and that worked?
While publishing choose Flash player as 9 and publish that, verify if that plays in a compatible web browser.
AS 2 is a legacy scripting, it has been said not too be supported with even Flash Player 10 --
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/help.html?content=Part2_AS2_LangRef_1.html
I believe if you switch back to version 9 while publish your project, it should work.
Thanks,

Captivate 6 - Trying to make all click boxes not visible in output

Adobe Captivate 6 - how do you make all the click boxes not visible in output. Help says to uncheck the Visible in Output box, easy enough, then it say to click the Apply to all icon and there is no such icon. Do I have to go through every single slide and manually do each one?

Hello and welcome to the forum,
I think you want to 'hide' the click box, so that it is not active, in the Properties panel? A click box itself is never visible to the user on the stage, but can be active or not.
I always copy/paste an invisible object, it will keep its properties. Since a click box has no style, you cannot apply a style to all click boxes.

My right click is not working. the context menu does not come up and i can no longer drag files/folders. I have checked the mouse and track pad in system preferences and the correct boxes are all checked (with a support member). Please can you help

My right click is not working and producing the context menu or ability to drag files and folders. I just spoke with a phone support person and we checked that all the mouse/trackpad options for right click were correct and checked.
Please can you help with this.
It has only just happened in the last few days.
Many thanks

You might want to update your profile so that we can see what model iMac you have and what version of OSX you're running.
For this question, it might help to know if you're dealing with a trackpad, Magic Mouse, or something else?
(Until your issue's resolved, you can Control-Left Click to get the right click functionality).

On right click nothing happens at all. I have reinstall the ODI multiple times with right installer. issue persist.
Please help.

Hi,
Did you use the generic installer or the win32 one ? You should use the former with Win64.
You can also check that your version of Java is supported in the certification matrix.

Right-click funcionality not working in assessment mode. I NEED HELP!

Hi - I've recently created a number of assessment recordings. The right-click function works as I'm recording as well as when preview the project and then after I publish it. However, when I give it to a colleague(s) to demo it, for some reason the assessment isn't recognizing her right-click and she gets stuck. We're both running the same IE, flash and windows versions so I am really a at a loss on this one. Has anyone ever encountered the same problem and if so what did you do to fix it?! Thanks a million!

Now when you run the movie in your browser, Right-Click is not working...
off course it will not work, as Right-Click uses Flash External Interface, and this new path
is not a trusted path by your flash player
Solution : You need to add this new path to your Flash Player security
Scenario 2: You just shared your right-click movie folder over the network ,
say the new path for other users is   "\\your-machine-name\My-Right-Click-Movie"
( or "\\nework-machine-02\work\captivate-movies\My-Rihgt-Click" )
and other users are complaining that , Right-Click is not working...
Yes once again the reason is same and new path   "\\your-machine-name\My-Right-Click-Movie"
( or "\\nework-machine-02\work\captivate-movies\My-Rihgt-Click" )   in not a trusted path by
other user's flash player
Solution : other user need to add this path "\\your-machine-name\My-Right-Click-Movie"
into his Flash player security setting.
How to add a path to flash player security setting?

Right-Clicks are not working when burned to disc.

Hi,
I need to use some right clicks in my course.
They work when I publish the file to my desktop or Server (unchecking 'Enable Accessiblity' and using 'Flash Global Settings'), however when I then burn the files to disc to give to a client, the right clicks do not work.
The course is made in Captivate 5.5 and is published to Flash 9.
Any ideas??
Thanks

Hi Hattie
One way past this would be to install a light web server on the disc that would fool the Flash Player into believing it is being served. Check the thread linked below for more.

I recommend you to run Apple Hardware Test > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509 It's possible that something is damaged, and Apple Hardware Test will help you finding it. Make sure you tick the option to run an extended test, and connect your Mac to the charger.
If your Mac came with DVDs, you have to insert the Mac OS X DVD to run Apple Hardware Test. As you haven't got the SuperDrive, you will have to buy an external optical drive

Hello Srinivas,
Try closing and opening NWDS. If you still see the same problem, simple solution for this is, Just Change Workspace to new folder.
Changing workspace - Window -> Workbench -> workspace -> give new path.
Close nwds and open it again. It should solve the problem.
Thanks,

Right click problem: I did not know about the Yahoo sidebar issue, I have removed all toolbars from my browser from 'view' menu. There is nothing in my 'extensions' to disable. Right click is not working. What to do?

Right clicking is not working on any of the websites. I read up that it's a Yahoo sidebar issue. But, in my extentions, Yahoo sidebar is not there. I had removed all toolbars, but from 'view' menu. Now how do I get my right click to work?

In "Show more Bookmarks" if I right click does not work (I want to open in a new tab)

This is using Mac Firefox current version. I use lots of tabs and don't have space for all of them so there is a >> at the right end for clicking and displaying the rest of them. If I click and display list and highlight one of them, the right click does not work - I want to open in a new tab not use the existing - there are no menu options displayed on these tabs. The tabs across the top work fine for this

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
