How to upload a Captivate Project six to Black Board nine

Trying to upload a Captivate six(version .240) Project  to Blackboard 9.  The content modules do not need scoring.
I understand you publish the Captivate project to SWF and tick output to be a zip,then upload the zip package. Blackboard 9 has the import package option. But how do you tell BB to unzip the file to start the HTML?Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I have not worked with BlackBorad LMS , But generally when you upload your zipped content on LMS it generates a LINK which you can share it with your users
Once you open that link in your webbrowser it plays the output for you.
Hope this helps
Thanks and Regards

  • How can I upload a captivate project to YouTube?

    I am using Captivate 3, and created a demo project I publish this to our FTP, and it is working great. Now we want to send it to YouTube, but I don't know how. Can anyone help?

    Hi there
    The first step will be to publish as SWF and convert the SWF to a format YouTube understands.
    You might use Google and search for a free SWF to video converter. Additionally, if you have any interactive elements, those probably won't translate.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How do I upload an idvd project to youtube or facebook?

    I would love to upload an idvd project to youtube to share on facebook. Currently, my imovie does not work (that's another help question for another time). I am not sure if iphoto is an option because my idvd project has many movie clips in the slideshow. Also, I tried the burning option and then ripping the dvd, BUT... for some reason, the music doesn't match the slides when burned on a dvd... but plays fine in the idvd project. In fact, the DVD's burned are not even regonized in the DVD player... but recognized when put into the computer (but audio is off). Anyways... I look forward to your support and help!!

    This tutorial shows you how to upload an iDVD created DVD to youtube.  There are other ways of doing this, but this method is fairly easy and allows you to upload videos longer than 15 minutes.

  • How do I embed fonts into Captivate projects?

    This question came up in May 2006 but was never really
    answered. I'd like to know how to embed fonts into my Captivate
    projects so that the output looks the same on all computers. While
    the text animations are fine, the Text Caption fields are the ones
    that seem to have fonts that go walkies on other computers. I know
    you can embed fonts in PDFs. Why not in Captivate (unless I'm
    missing something in 2.0).

    First, a tip for the forums: If you use the URL tags, your
    post won't require horizontal scrolling - sorry, but I use Firefox
    and entering a long URL totally blows my ability to smoothly read
    the post ... you can manually add a text link by using the "L" tag
    as shown below (I've put spaces in to avoid this being turned into
    another text link)
    [ L = Your Text]
    http://www.yourdomain.com [ /
    L ]
    Back to your issue, Charinos. I'm glad you did find the URL,
    but that thread and your problem are not even in the same world.
    That thread deals with fonts in text-entry boxes (boxes for
    end-user text-entry), and you are talking about text-captions, an
    entirely different object.
    In fact, if you make changes and save those changes to a
    text-caption, then publish the project, the fonts in your text
    captions will remain stable and are not dependent on the fonts
    installed on the end-viewer's machine. The reason is that when the
    SWF is compiled, the text captions are converted to images and so
    long as the file is viewed as intended in the HTML document - at
    the proper size - the stretching you describe cannot take place.
    I'm not saying you are seeing things, but if my understandings of
    the Captivate machine are correct, what you are saying is happening
    cannot
    be happening. Something else is going on, like a failure to
    save changes, use of non-conforming text-caption boxes with a
    resultant loss of margins, or something.
    Sorry I'm not more help. I can't duplicate what you are
    seeing but I hope someone else can help you out - I may still be
    misunderstanding your issue.

  • How to upload and download Long text for WBS, Project, Network

    Hi all,
    I have two isssues.
    1) I am extracting Projects, WBS , Network , Network activity and network activity element from a SAP 4.7 system using bapi's
    BAPI_PROJECTDEF_GETDETAIL
    BAPI_PROJECT_GETINFO
    BAPI_NETWORK_GETINFO
    BAPI_BUS2054_GETDATA
    I am able to get all the details except long text. I want to know how do i extract the long text other than getting it manually by using select_text and Read_text Function module, is there any bapi to achieve this.
    The reason why i am not using Function modules Read_text and Write_text is, object name( TDNAME ) value stored in STXH table for project, wbs and network are the project, wbs and network itself so i dont have any issues with this but the TDname value for activity and activity element are completely different ( Routing number and counter is stored respectively ) which i am not getting as the part of the bapi(BAPI_NETWORK_GETINFO) output.
    2)  I have to upload the extracted Project and it sub object data to ECC 6.0 system , i am able to achieve this by using BAPI's BAPI_PROJECTDET_CREATE, BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN and BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN. I am not able to load the longtext for the same, is there any way to load the long text .
    All help will be greatly appreciated and rewarded.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Rajanidhi Rajasekeran.

    One thread in the correct forum is good enough, no need to double post across ABAP forums.  Thanks.

  • Uploading a PDF "within" my Captivate project

    Hi, I would like for learners to have the option of clicking an attachments link within my Captivate project so that they can download a file that is relevant to my course WHILE they are watching the video.  Can Captivate do this?  I've used a similar feature on Articulate Presenter.
    Thanks,
    Robyn

    Hi Robyn,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    In order to download a file from the Captivate output, you need to attach a file in a Captivate project on any button or click box.
    Add a button or a click box then go to Properties > (define the) Action > On Success > (Select) Open URL or File > (Type the name of the file in) URL:  and then publish the project.
    After publishing the project send the File along with the output or paste the file in the output folder, so that the object (button or click box) would be able to find the file which has been attached to it.
    I hope this will help you.
    Please let me know the status along with some more information:
    1) Version of Captivate?
    2) What kind of an output are you taking from Captivate?
    3) Are you using any LMS to upload the output?
    Thanks

  • Uploading Linked Captivate 2 Projects into Sum Total LMS

    I've been trying to upload a series of media-rich linked
    projects to our Sum Total LMS. Although there are several projects,
    they are linked to play seamlessly to the end user. The problem is
    when each project is published, it creates its own zip file. In
    order to upload the files to the LMS they must be in one zip file
    or they will upload as separate, independent learning modules. I've
    encountered numerous challenges in attempting the upload.
    Does anyone have any experience/suggestions about:
    - Publishing each project into the same zip file
    - Uploading linked Captivate 2 projects to an LMS, especially
    the Sum Total LMS
    - Uploading a project with flash videos to an LMS
    I greatly appreciate any feedback you can provide.
    Thanks!

    I always link between Captivate files to ensure that my files
    are not too big. I have done this many times; however, I have not
    tried it when there is a quiz involved. What I do is link them
    inside Captivate, publish the files (non-zipped, which you can do
    if there isn't a quiz involved) and then zip them up together with
    Winzip. When you load it into the LMS, you need to choose either
    "Knowledge Document" or "General Document" and there, you can
    choose the launch file (whatever file you want to load
    first.)

  • How to playback an embedded swf in a Captivate project

    Hello,
    I generated a swf file from one captivate project and am embedding it into another.  When I play back the slide that has the imported animation the playback from the slide and the imported swf are different.  If I pause the main slide playback the swf continues and vice versa.  How do I get the playback of the imported swf file to be controlled by the main playback controls?  I am using Cpativate 4.
    Thank you in advance

    Hi there
    I'm hoping one of the Captivate team members picks up on this one and either confirms or denys my findings.
    It is my understanding that one cannot control the other. Likely you may want to simply insert a Click Box or Button on the slide with the SWF and allow the user to move on when they are ready after having interacted with the SWF.
    You may wish to experiment with the properties of the embedded SWF. There is an option called "Synchronize with project". But I'm doubtful it will work to accomplish what you want. I think what this option does is to ensure that if the timing of the slide is different than the SWF inside, it will play the SWF in its entirety.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Captivate 8 - How to change to producing "project.json" file instead of a "project.txt" file?  Having issues with viewing published projects due to this.

    Captivate 8 - How to change to producing "project.json" file instead of a "project.txt" file?  Having issues with viewing published projects due to this.   Would be thankful fo rany/all advice.

    I'm having the same issue. I've been able to work around it by opening the txt file and copying the contents. Then I open a new file in Sublime Text 2, paste the contents and save the new file as "project.json". It seems to work, but it'd been nice if I didn't have to do this everytime I publish a new project.

  • How can I convert .cp projects from Captivate 2 to .cptx projects for Captivate 7?

    How can I convert .cp projects from Captivate 2 to .cptx projects for Captivate 7? Do I have to use some other version between 2 and 7 to do this?

    I doubt you are going to be able to find all those previous versions and the time it would take to install, open the project, verify it, and everything in between (and without license keys, they would only be saved from trial versions which would be an issue), it seems it would be better just to start with Cp7 and put the effort into that.
    Completely off topic, one of the things I like about Authorware is that Macromedia provided previous versions that would allow you to open up and save the projects to get to version 7. It was a nice little touch they provided for developers. I don't believe that Adobe does this for Captivate though.

  • How to pass arguments into a Captivate project

    Hello,
       We use dotNetNuke (DNN) as our Content Management System. We are using tokens in DNN to personalize the screens. We have access to the uses first name and email. I would like to pass this information into a Captivate project. I have seen references in my research to using Javascript to invoke the Captivate project, but I have not found any samples of the source code, nor examples of how to use the passed values in the Captivate presentation.  Can someone validate that this functionality exists for Captivate 8 and perhaps point me to a few examples?
    Thanks,
    Peter

    Sorry. I think I was a bit too vague in my answer.
    And I don't know about how you are getting your token value, but that part is up to you.
    Just make sure to put it in place of where I wrote "whateveryourtokenvalueiscalled".
    1.
    create a variable in cp to hold your value. (e.g. holdName)
    2.
    Add this inside the <head></head> tags of your page (after you export it):
    <script>
         function = getMyValues () {
              if(window.cpAPIInterface)
                   //assign your token value to the cp variable you created in the project
                   window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue("holdName",whateveryourtokenvalueiscalled);
    </script>
    3.
    Back in your cp project, call to the function at some point.
    For example, on page 2, add to the page's action
    On Enter:
         Execute Javascript
    Then in the script window, type this to start up the function:
    getMyValues();
    I hope that makes sense.  I'm not really great at explaining scripting unfortunately.

  • My Captivate project wont play. How can I fix this?

    When I choose to preview my project (and even after Publish) I am only able to view an enlarged screenshot (a still shot) of my first slide. The project shows the pause symbol indicating that its playing, but the cursor never moves, no audio or visual appear.
    How can I fix this? I've produced dozens of Captivate projects before and don't believe I've done anything different this go around. Anyone out there that may have some advice?
    Sabrina

    Hate to be a nag, but you are absotively certain that if you simply play the PPT, it sails right along with no pause?
    Another thing to note is that when Captivate imports PPT it creates a Flash SWF for the background of each PPT slide. Perhaps it's hanging up on loading one of the SWFs?
    You might also try enabling the ever mysterious "Force re-publish all the slides" option in Captivate and see if that makes any difference.

  • How can I create a new skin (other than the default skins) for my Captivate Project?

    Hi everyone,
    I am working on a project where my client wants me to create a player skin which is completely different from the default themes that captivate has already. The design which client has shared with me contains in this way:
    1. TOC - should be truncated and can be expanded by pressing "+" button against the Navigation Text. Its like opening and closing the menu bar using + and - buttons
    2. Playback controls required by him are also not in the default skins.
    I dont know, if there is any way to customize the skins to this level inside captivate.
    Please help me out.
    Thanks & Regards
    Vikas Sharma

    Unlikely, I'm afraid.
    The LMS has no control over the playbar that pauses or plays the Captivate content.
    In a Multi SCORM package, the LMS also may be showing a TOC in the SCORM player with links to launch the lesson modules.  This TOC is in addition to the TOC inside the Captivate project file which gives access to sections of the module by jumping to slides that begin those sections.  But the LMS doesn't usually give you any control over the look and feel or functionality of that TOC either. 
    If your client is adamant that they want complete control over these areas, then your best option may be NOT to build this course with Captivate but build it from the ground up with another tool.  E.g. Flash, or Dreamweaver.  Either way, that will add a lot more time and expense to the project.  But if the client has the budget and is unwilling to budge on their requirement, then that's what I would be telling them to do.

  • Embedding connect asset (captivate project) in web page

    How do I reference a Connect address (asset) such as from the Connect server that don't end in an html file using the embed command in html so that the content shows on my web page?
    a.    I tried the flash object and movie in dreamweaver CS3 but I couldn’t get it to work.
    b.    If I upload the swf files to the same server as the web page I can use the embed command to push the swf files on a web page. I bypass the html page that makes the plugin announce a security warning.
    c.    If I do that the FLVs don’t play using Captivate 3 on an http server.
    d.    My Captivate projects works when I play the URL from the Connect Server and the FLVs play but I can’t embed them in a web page. Can I see some sample code.

    Hi Shekhar,
    Thank you for your response, this was helpful, however the problem remains as to how the video is seen in the frame. Unless I specify a height for the iframe, (which I don't want to do as it need to be responsive) the height of the captivate project has huge borders, margins which I can't seem to get rid of when it is part of an iframe?
    Please find screen capture of what is happening
    Kind Regards

  • Can I upload a Captivate course to Connect AFTER embedding Edge animations through App Packager?

    I would like to include animations I've created in Edge Animate and the App Packager makes this pretty easy. However, afterward I have an HTML course that I can't seem to upload to Connect. When I ZIP it up I'm told by Connect that it's an invalid format. Also, when I export a Captivate course as a zipped HTML course, uploading it to Connect works, but the spinning loader shows indefinitely.

    So in case anyone comes across this post with the same question, I found out a way to sort of do this. I still couldn't figure out how to upload the ZIP to Connect properly, but I was able to use the Web Object Interaction and load up the HTML output of Edge Animate. It's just a folder with a bunch of files and an index file. All you do is choose the top-level folder, resize your interaction to fit, and everything works out well! No need to use the App Pakcager, and animations can be inserted any time while you're creating your project.
