Help!!! Can captivate stop between slides??

Hi
I am creating a demo through capitvate. Is there anyway for
capitvate to stop between slides and it be up to the presenter to
continue to the next slide?
Please help! I am desperate!
Simona

Hi Simona and welcome to our community
If you are wanting this behavior to occur by virtue of
recording, click Options > Recording Options... and configure
one of the Assessment modes.
If you are talking about a project you have already recorded,
click Insert > Click Box... or Insert > Button... and insert
a Click Box or Button object on each slide. The default nature of
these objects is to pause the project until your user interacts.
Hopefully this helps... Rick

Can I stop the slide audio (text to speech) when a quiz feedback caption with audio appears?

Hi there, We use text to speech on all our slides, however there is a problem we have been unable to solve. If we have audio on a quiz slide this continues to play when the feedback caption comes up. This means that if a learner clicks the answer quickly they hear the slide text and the caption text on top of each other. How can I stop the slide audio if the feedback caption appears. We have tried advanced actions to "stop triggered audio" and experimented with invisible text captions that have the audio added but have not solved it so far. Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this? Any help gratefully received, Many thanks Janet
PS We are using Captivate 8 with the installed Text to Speech voices

This is currently a common problem with audio in quiz slides of Captivate modules.
The configuration options for interactive objects on quiz slides to not allow the same level of control for audio playback that you have with normal interactive objects on other slides. (e.g. being able to stop other audio when something is clicked).
The Stop Triggered Audio action is often misunderstood. But as its name clearly indicates, it really only applies to stopping an audio clip that was TRIGGERED by another advanced action. That doesn't apply to background audio, slide level audio, or object level audio.
My suggestion is that you go back to your design and work out which of the two audio clips (the slide or the feedback audio) you can do without. Maybe your learners don't need them quite as much as you think.

Multiple picture-buttons - How to stop the slide

Hi,
my problem:
A slide with a world map, some buttons as target-markers. If you click at one of these dots, a button with some information pops up (its all about visibility). A single click within this button close itself. It is possible to click any target so many time the user want to. It is also possible to open all text-buttons by hitting all the orange dots. Slide audio is 22 seconds long, so is the slide duration. How can i stop the slide up to zthe moment, the user hits the bottom-left navigation button (perpetualButton_AS3)?
I fear, the solution is quite simple, i just can't figure it out. Any help is very welcome, time is running out ... delivery of a teaser in less than 4 hours and still some video work to do.
Regards
Marc
btw: eLearning Suite 2.5 is running at this computer

Not sure if this would be what you want but the Event Handler Widget would allow you to either display timed Success captions for a given number of seconds or execute advanced actions to SHOW or HIDE captions when users click the dots. You can set preferences in the widget to Reset Success/Fail Criteria After Action to enable users to click on an object as many times as they want to repeat the action. Set the Pausing preferences to permanently pause the slide until the user clicks another button to proceed to the next slide.

Flickering between slides in Captivate 4

Hi,
I'm having some trouble figuring out why my project flickers in between slides in Captivate 4.
Some info on the project:
Each slide's transition on the properties menu is marked as "No transition". Most of the objects on the slide, especially those that appear at the very beginning, are set at "no transition"; others are set as "fade in only" and have at least .5 seconds to fade in.
At first, I had a floating image on each slide as a background image before I realized that I could set a background image. While I was playing around with this, I changed the background color to green just to test it out. It seems that the flicker between slides is whatever color that background color is set to. Black is the least noticeable, it seems...
Then, I set the background image for each slide, but it didn't seem to make a difference. Then, I merged objects, such as the title (same for each slide) and some other non-changing pieces (logo/branding) into the background, and this didn't make much of a difference either.
When I was playing around with the background images, etc., the flickering seemed to stop for a few slide-to-slide transitions, but these "successful" or seamless transitions don't seem to necessarily occur at the same places each time I pre/view them.
Also, I have Adobe Flash Player 9 software on my computer (probably from the Captivate 4 software or from the Adobe CS3 software). I'm aware that there's a new release (10.1), but I've only been able to download plugins for browsers (chrome and firefox, so far), but not the actual software .exe file. Not sure whether its really a FP issue, though, because I've tried opening the project's .swf file in both browsers and the FP 9 and the flickering still occurs in all.
I've seen some evidence of this flickering in other projects before. It may have been a few individual objects, such as a text box here or an image there, and I was somehow always able to fix it, though I never really knew what I did to fix it! The flicker usually just ended up going away! The previous problems were never as grand as they are now (being whole-slide flickers on EACH transition).
Can anyone help me???
It'd be MUCH APPRECIATED!!
Thanks,
Kate

Macnimation,
Flash video can be a bit glitchy in Captivate--especially if the video includes the audio.
In answer to your autodetect concern, is your FLV set to "Pause slide till end of video"?
Then, just thinking out loud, how about a workaround for the audio overlap? Create blank slide (whatever color you want) before the second video--set for 0.1 second or so and "Go to Next Slide". Then navigate to that slide before going to the second video. That might cut the sound off. This might not be the best solution, but it might be the most expedient one. --Leslie

While trimming a clip in my timeline, the entire timeline moves with my trim. How can I stop that and leave a gap in-between clips?

While trimming a clip in my timeline, the entire timeline moves with my trim. How can I stop that and leave a gap in-between clips? Also when I use my blade it only leaves a dotted line in the clip. How can I make that a solid line? I do a lot of flickering in my videos and don't need that some what of a snapping effect while I edit. Please help me someone. I believe i upgraded from FCP 10.0.1 to 10.0.3 and before it never did this.

Mark an In point and an Out point (which creates a Range) and hit the forward delete key (Replace with Gap.) On a MacBook, you'll probably need to hold down the Fn key and type the Delete key (or, I think you might be able to use Shift-Delete as the same command). On an iMac/Mac Pro keyboard, it's the key just to the left of 'end' or the next key above the left arrow key.
You can use the Range tool (hold down the R key and click drag over your clip) or the Blade tool to cut at the in and out (then select the cut and replace with gap).
You can also go into Commands > Customize (command-option-K) and assign a different key to Replace with Gap.
If you need to ripple edit the ends (cut), create a small section that is Gap, and hold down the T key while you use the mouse to click drag both ends (double sided trim cursor) of the cut.
Don't worry about the dotted line blade... That just lets you know that the frames on either side of the cut are continuous, or sequential — nothing has been moved yet. Once frames from either side of the mark have been cut, it becomes a full fledged cut resembling a separate clip.

settings - general - usuage - music - delete. Then do a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
Then sync the music back via iTunes.

Yes, under the Settings for the store, you can turn off the auto download for purchases, that way if you purchase an app on another device it will not automatically download on that device. You would need to do this on both your iPad and iPhone.

Everything that you have checked in your icloud settings will be shared between devices using the same Apple ID. If you don't want icloud to share that information, then simply turn off that process under settings > icloud

Is the iPod still singed into the account isn Settings>iTunes and App Stores and SettingsZ>iCloudl? If it is then I would not be concerned.

since you may have started the 90 day window.
For the other "problem", go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says Prevent iPod....automatically syncing.

There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not apply in your case.
1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
2. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and in that case the unit must be serviced or replaced.
3. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
4. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
5. Reset the System Management Controller.
6. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
7. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

Mike,
Thank you for taking the time to look at my app. This is my last major stumbling block that I have to resolve for this and other forms in the app.
Actually, I did use the Form Wizard for Auto DML to originally create the form. It was great. It created most of the Buttons, Items and Validations automatically (basically most of the page). I just needed to create some Processes and Computations. Two of which were the Processes to update the 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields and 'update_dt' and 'updated_by' fields. The Create process updates the fields just fine.
However, my problem seems to be that the Hidden 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields aren't picking up the values from a record that is being editted. Then when I attempt to save the record those fields are NULL, causing the DB NOT NULL constraint to throw an exception for those fields. In the back of my mind I seem to remember seeing some post stating something to the effect that the information in fields with a Source Type of Database Column is just displayed and does not affect Session State items.
Even with that, I am still wondering just why the 'created_by' Page Item shows the value that is in the DB record being updated, but the 'create_dt" does not (as can be seen in my first posting). It is the 'create_dt' Page Item (:P205_CREATE_DT) not having the DB records 'create_dt' info in it that appears to be the problem.
Thanks,
Tom

everything should be on your computer.
If you do as you should and make sure that everything is on your computer, then you should lose nothing.

Time Between Slides In A Program - Captivate 7

I need to know where to look to lessen the time between slides in the program I am developing.

Hi there
Slide duration is configured in the properties panel.
Can you be more specific about what you are trying to do?
Cheers... Rick

Adobe CEF Helper is sending data. How can I stop this?

After starting my mac Adobe CC starts sending data. It is a lot of data (7 GB a day) and makes working very slow. How can I stop this. I closed Adobe CEF Helper, but it starts again after some moments. Only closing CC ends the process. Why wants Adobe my datas? It s a terrible process for working and makes using internet very slooooooow.

There are two different Flash Player Plugins for Windows (3 if you count Google Chrome, but it's built in and functions independently of the other two).
The one for Firefox won't affect IE.
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Download and run both of those. That should have you up to date.
