Multiple slide viewing

Hello all,
I Was wondering if it's possible to view two slides at a time during a presentation. Any help on that subject would be appreciated.

Do you mean display two slides to the audience, or view two slides on your own machine as a presenter? As a presenter, you can use the Presenter Display setup (in the Preferences) to let you see your current and next slide while the audience just sees the current one.
For that matter, if you want the audience to view two slides at a time, you could just mirror your own display and, in the View menu, use the Rehearse Slideshow item to put the presenter display up. (Note that the layout of the Presenter Display is editable, so if you just want the two slides, without any timing info, you can do that.) Be aware that when slides are presented this way, each "slide" that appears is actually the stage of the slide build, and that the build effects themselves are not visible -- items will appear and disappear, but there will be no effects.

In presentation view, see multiple slides

i want to be able to scroll through slides on my laptop in "presentation view" while presenting on a projector. i think this is still impossible in the latest keynote, although it is functionality that shows up commonly in other presentation software and has been requested for years. does anyone know a work around?
for example, this is for KN3:

thanks

try hitting + and - while the show is running and see if it brings up the slide viewer. It does NOT stay up like the one in PPT, but you should be able to tab through slides. You can also bring it up by typing a number. Before you hit return to cue that slide, you'll see the viewer.

Slide views only to be reported, but grade is reporting to lms as 0 instead of n/a

My client has a number of quiz questions throughout their course. They asked that the quiz be set up to allow infinite attempts until the learner gets the answer right, and that there are no points or grade associated with the quiz. I've set up each question as a quiz question, but set the grade to be 0. I did it as a quiz question as there are matching type questions, multiple choice, etc. and I found it valuable to have the structure in place to add in the content. The reporting preferences are set up as to report back slide views only, but when this file communicates with the LMS, it is reporting back a pass/complete but giving a grade of 0. I'd like it to show up as n/a under the grade rather than 0.
Also, this course isn't booking marking and learners aren't happy because when they go back in their answers aren't saving. As well, the client wanted backward movement to be allowed but when the learner clicks the back button to go back through the slides, it automatically resets the question slides and they have to re-answer them to continue. Is there a way to change a setting so that the answers will stay in place?
And my last question (promise, sorry for so many) under the quiz settings and then required there are 4 options. I'm just wondering if anyone can explain these 4 options and what each do, so that I can make sure I'm selecting the best one. Up until now it's been a trial/error type of thing, but it would be great if anyone can share some additional info.

Thanks so much! I'm the only one working in Captivate, and so I can't even tell you how helpful it is to have replies and people that understand what I'm asking.
I looked into the manifest file, but I couldn't seem to find the masteryscore text. Here's a copy and paste of my manifest file. Am I missing something?

Cannot scan multiple slides from Canoscan 8600F

In the past when I had a PC I was able to scan multiple color slides (using the multiple slide adapter), but on my Mac when I installed the Canoscan driver and software, I used Image Capture to scan. Here's what the right side of Image Capture shows:
Kind: Color
Resolution: 75 dpi (I set this low because it is just for web and computer viewing)
Use Custom Size: Letter size
Scan to: Desktop (I have hundreds of slides so is it better to scan to a specific folder? I do not want to mix these scanned photos with my Pictures)
Name: Scan 1,2 etc.
Format: JPEG
Detect Separate Images selected.
The result of the scan shows one image of the film holder and four blackened slides, with no details. No individual slides shown.
What happened?

It's best to scan to a folder on the Desktop so you can keep them together and organized.
You must set the source as "Color Positive Film".
Image Capture with Mt. Lion (and maybe Lion) does not have that slide or transparency setting option.
Use the CanoScan application for slide scanning because it will automatically select each of the 4 slides on the platten and save them as individual images. The CanoSdan Toolbox will do the same.
You can get the latest scanner drivers and CanoScan software here: Canon U.S.A. : Support & Drivers : CanoScan 8600F for OS systems up to Mt. Lion.
I'd reinstall the drivers and the software and give it a try again both with Image Capture and with CanoScan.
NOTE: I've gotten what looks like some roller smudges on the underside of the glass platten. Looks like some of the smudges that I can wipe off the top side when I get them but they are underneath. I haven't noticed any problem with the scans due to them, however. Have you gotten anything similar?

Best way to control audio over multiple slides-iMovie or QT Pro?

I have a 30-slide presentation, and due to the horrendous handling of audio files by Keynote I need figure out the least painful way of controlling audio spanning multiple slides.
My end goal is to have a Quicktime file to put on the web, and to burn to a CD or DVD for viewing on individual computers. There is audio spanning 3 slides (a Garageband mix with voiceover narration built in,)and different audio for background for different groups of slides.
Least painful method to attempt this and get ACCURATE TIMING for the end product?

Make a series of Keynote presentations, one for each complete audio track. Export each as a QuickTime DV (digital video) clip. Launch iMovie and import the clips into a single iMovie project; tweak each clip's audio, as necessary. Finally, export the assembled iMovie to your intended QuickTime format.

Is there a way to create or use a "slide viewed" variable?

Hi, I would like to write a conditional action based on whether or not a learner has visited slide. I realize I could write an individual variable for every single slide, but that would be a very slow and manual way to set this up. From a logic perspective, I wanted to set up a single project action that would look something like this.
If "slide viewed" = no, then do this...
If "slide viewed" = yes, then don't do anything.
Theoretically, it would seem possible since you can show a checkmark in the TOC next to a visited slide, but I can't quite figure out how to apply this to my project actions.
Is something like this possible in Captivate 6 or 7?

Disclaimer: I've only tried this with a couple slides, with very little error checking, but here's a single action approach I came up with.
First I created a tracker variable. Then I labelled each slide with a single, distinct letter/number/character. (Not sure if there are any characters you should stay away from; maybe someone else can tell you which ones might cause problems as a slide name/label). So you might run out of letters/numbers/characters if you have a ton of slides. If you have enough unique, one-letter names, however, this is the logic behind the advanced action:
If slide_tracker contains cpInfoCurrentSlideLabel
Then: continue
Else: do whatever you want it to do
slide_tracker = slide_tracker + cpInfoCurrentSlideLabel
So basically, if we've already been to this slide, the slide label will already been appended to our tracker variable. Thus it will contain the unique letter/symbol/number, and will do nothing (continue). If we haven't been to this slide, then we can do whatever we want to do and update the tracker to reflect that we've now been to this slide.
Again, a disclaimer: I spent only five minutes trying this out, so there may be unforseen issues with it.

How to track the number slides view on LMS

Hi,
I would like to know how to get a percentage of slides view on a LMS platform.
For example, I don't know how to get a percentage of 5 if I see 5 slides of 100 slides.
I don't know if it's possible with Captivate and if there is an option for that.
On our LMS, we get 0, 50 or 100% but we would like to get a more precise result.
I tried on SCORM CLOUD too and only get 0,00%.
Do you guys have the solution?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Vanessa
PS: I'm not native english so sorry if I made some spelling mistakes (I'm French). I wanted to post here because you find more answers on english forums than french forums.

There is not a SCORM value for slides viewed. What SCORM field/value are you seeing this percentage in?
Also, what version of SCORM are you publishing?
You would need to alter the scormdriver.js file in order to post the results that you want. I am in the process of writing a blog to change CP's bookmarking behavior. With this code it would be fairly simple to add some code to display the info in the comments (SCORM 1.2).

Problems copying and pasting multiple slides from one captivate to another.

I have been able to copy and paste several slides into
another captivate and suddenly this has stopped working. I am using
the ctrl key to select multiple slides (a set of 3) and the using
the Edit drop-down to select copy slide. Then, I click on the other
captivate and click paste slides. It is only bringing 1 slide, the
first one, and not the 2nd and 3rd... any ideas. I've had another
set of eyes look over my shoulder... and we're both scratching our
heads.
Also, for some reason the text entry boxes are being copied,
but the failure caption associated with it does not come along. It
also copied the button but lost the association with the text entry
box. WTH?

This might work, this might not. I have copy paste problems
on a regular basis and all that works for me is closing Captivate
down and then re open and continue. At worst, a reboot tends to
solve this glitch in my experience.
Good Luck

Is there a way to print presenter notes with multiple slides per page?

I know you used to be able to do this with earlier versions by selecting options in the print dialog box, but I'm now using Keynote 6.1 on Mavericks, and I can only figure out how to do one or the other, not both. There will probably be over 100 students printing these out, so I'd really, really like to save paper by putting multiple slides on a page, but I want them to have both the slide and the notes.
Thanks in advance!

How to save a pdf with multiple slides per page

I have multiple pdf files that I would like to combine but for some of those files, there were originally from powerpoint. For those files, I would like to change the pdf so that there are multiple slides per page. I don't have a copy of the original powerpoints. I am trying to find an easy way to do this because I have at least a hundred pdfs to do. Thank you!

You could print a PDF to the Adobe PDF printer, and select multiple Pages per Sheet on the Layout tab of the printer Properties dialog. Printing a PDF to PDF is generally frowned upon, but once it a while it comes in handy. It could have some unwelcome side effects though like wiping out your carefully crafted accessibility tags, bookmarks, and some document properties.

Multiple component view in integration scenario

Hi
I have <b>multiple component views</b> defined in my integration scenario.
When i try to configure these component view in Integration directory in integration scenarion configurator, if I select the component view i want to apply then the systems give a message " All configuration settings made in the current component view will be lost".
This means that if i have configured the first component view and then try to configure the second component view then setting of first view get lost.
i want to have all the configure all the component views in the integration scenario.
Please provide some pointers for the issue.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Amit Deshpande

Amit,
When you have multiple component views in the Integration scenario, you would ideally want to create separate configuration scenarios for each component view.
So for eg. if you have four component views, 4 different configuration scenarios can be created using the integration scenario configurator. The only thing is that you would have to repeat the integration scenario configurator steps[Tools->Transfer Integration Scenario from Integration Repository] 4 times, once for each component view. If you notice, you can change the name of the configuration scenario each time you start afresh.
The message is a warning that if you go back during the integration scenario configuration process[the first step is the selection of the component view for which you want the configuration scenario] and change the component view then all the changes made thus far would be lost.
For e.g if you are in step 3[Assign Services, I think] and then go back and change the component view, all the changes made for the original component view selected would be lost.
Hope this helps.

Multiple f:view on a single page?

Is it possible to have multiple f:view s on a single page? I want to have some parts of the page be displayed always in a specific language: f:view locale="de". Some other parts should just change the locale normally?
i tried it, but then the page was pretty corrupted... although I did not get an error message.
thanx!

No, you can only have one <f:view> per JSP page (including any pages that page includes), and the locale must be the same for the complete response (because it's also used when the post-back request is parsed).
It's hard to say from your description if this makes sense or not, but why don't you use static text for the part that is always in German, and only localize the parts of the page that needs it?

CP5 Freezing when editing video over multiple slides

Captivate continuously freezes when I'm working with a video that I've spread over multiple slides.
This is a Windows 7 computer. I've cleared my cache incase that had something to do with that.
Any help would be apreciated.
Susan

Which version?
Some ideas: background music for the file, to stop on slides 1-2 and 21-23.
VO as slide auido on slides where wanted.
For slide 2: object audio which can play parallel with the VO (see http://blog.lilybiri.com/audio-objects-control-them)
For slide 21-23: object audio with object displayed for the rest of the project, and hidden on entering slide 24

Captivate 5.5 is setting a Mastery Score in the Manifest when using Slide Views

We have encountered a problem with Captivate 5.5 where it is setting the Mastery Score in the manifest to match the Quiz score setting even though we are only using slide views to track completion. This is a problem because if we set the score to zero, our Saba LMS will immediately grant the user credit for the course on the first slide. If we set the score higher than zero, the user will never get credit for the course as Captivate doesn't send a score to the LMS when using slide views to track completion. Our LMS seems to ignore the status passed by the course once the Mastery Score is set. We have compared the manifest behavior in 5.0 and it does NOT set the Mastery Score. We can edit the manifest prior to loading in the LMS but this is a hassle and we'd like to figure out a way to permanently change the behavior to no longer set Mastery Score when using Slide Views to track completion.

Hi,
I believe the easiest way to do this is to edit the manifest.xml file in the Captivate Templates folder. I posted instructions on doing that here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/956390?tstart=0
Hope this solves your issue. V
