Thanks Lillybiri,
I should have checked first. Would you happen to know if the PPT transitions are supposed to translate over to Cp6 when importing a PPT?
Thanks

  • Adobe Captivate Help | Publish projects as HTML5 files

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/publish-projects-html5-files.html

    I opened a captivate project and published as HTML5. It worked in a browser on the desktop. then I tried it on an iPad. That also worked. Then I tried it on an iPhone. that worked, but the document was far too large for the iphone to display. I was curious as to whether or not the "scale html content" check box would make a difference for iphone, so I tried it. It did fix that problem, but, as expected, it broke the animations. Now when I try to publish to HTML5 it creates a sort-of hybrid, where the document is the correct dimensions in a browser on the desktop, but it is forced into smaller dimensions on the iPad, and no where do the animations work anymore, although the "scale html content" check box is unchecked. I used the Captivate cache clearing button in preferences and cleared my browser cache on the iPad, restarted the computer, etc. To no avail. It seems using the "scale html content" has permanently broken Captivate 7. I am now considering reinstalling it.

  • Publishing project in HTML5 - video's don't work

    Hello,
    In my e-learning project I have implemented several video's as Event Video on a slide.  These video's work perfectly as I preview my project.
    But when I publish my project the video's don't seem to load.  Some video's show nothing (black screen), others show less than 1 second.  The video's were implemented as .MP4-files and the Encoder launched when publishing.
    How can I solve this problem ?
    Plz respond quickly, this problem is urgent !

  • Publish in Responsive HTML5 - files skipped and 3rd level topics not generated

    I'm having trouble getting the new FrameMaker 11 Publish features to work as expected.
    I have a ditamap with three levels of headings. When I use the Publish feature to output in Responsive HTML5, a TOC is produced, in which there are no links below the second level.
    Moreover, even some files at the second level randomly are not accessible from the TOC. A link is present, but when I click, it lands on a page that says "this webpage is not found".
    When I look in the output directory, all the files are present in html form, so they do exist.
    One file, however, although correctly formed in the xml source with a series of unordered lists, comes out looking like this:
    An interactive script called bootstrap_.cmd is provided when you run the installation package for the Control Centre. This script simplifies the configuration of the sample database with a MySQL database engine. It performs a series of setup tasks, including:
    ÃÃÆ⠀™Ãƒâ€ ’ƒâ€šà ƒÆ’ƒÆ’‚¢Ãà †â€™Ãƒâ€ ’ĮբÃà †â€™Ãƒâ€ ’ƒÂ¢Ã¢â€Å ¡Ã‚¬Ã…¡Ãà †â€™Ãƒâ€ ’ƒâ€šà ƒÆ’ƒÆ’‚¬Ãà †â€™Ãƒâ€ ’ƒÆ’ââ‚ ¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šà ƒÆ’ƒÆ’‚¢               Execution of the SQL command that creates the database,
    Needless to say, this is not useable. Is this a bug in Frame, or am I doing something wrong?

    I had some help from Adobe support about the inability of the Publish tool to generate more than two levels of depth in the hierarchy.
    The depth is managed by the 'ParaTags' setting in 'BookWithFM-TOC' section of "ditafm-output.ini". By default, it is set to manage only two levels. To change it to four:
    [BookWithFM-TOC]
    Template=TOCTpl.fm
    ElementTags=
    ParaTags=title.0|title.1|title.2|title.3|title.4|title-index
    Nevertheless, for a long time I could not get this to work for me, because there were in effect TWO ditafm-output.ini files in my standard installation and the one which controlled the output was HIDDEN and did not appear in any searches!
    This file:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\AdobeFrameMaker12\fminit\ditafm\ditafm-output.ini
    is the incorrect one, but it is the only one that actually shows up when I looked for ditafm-output.ini.
    The correct ini file was in a subdirectory of the path
    C:\Users\my_user\AppData\Roaming\Adobe
    The trick is to do a search on AppData. It does not show up in a Windows Explorer, but the search returns a slew of htm files recently generated by the Publish process. These confess the hidden path in their headers, under the OriginalFile tag.
    None of this was at all self-evident! Thanks Adobe Support.

  • Why do my published projects in html5 do not allow me to select the answers?

    This problem has developed recently and not all html5 outputs suffer from this problem.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    Try to disable hardware acceleration.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

  • Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?

    Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?
    A little background info. I use Captivate 7 and currently have over 100 projects that I maintain on a quarterly basis. I publish using the SWF format and upload the swf/htm files to a server where they are then accessed from a few locations (within our online documentation, in our software product, on two different websites). Many of the projects are linked so some will be viewed as a series and others viewed as a standalone video. Each video uses the same template and includes an intro and end slide. Now my organization wants to implement a new intro to all videos (those I publish and those from several groups across the organization). My current intros provide overview material for the specific video so the new intro, which is an animation with audio in mp4 format, would need to be placed at the start of each project. The issue is, the intro adds 9 seconds to every video and in many cases doesn’t add any value (say, if a user accesses the video from within our product or views the videos as a series). I’ve talked it over with my boss and we want to try to add the intro only to videos accessed from site X, not any other location. So now to my question. Is there a way to play an external mp4 file (intro) only when the published project is accessed from a specific site, therefore eliminating the need to update each project? Maybe there's a way to add a parameter or variable to the URL or the html code?
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Please let me know if you need additional information.

    AimeeLove,
    I have a solution for you.  You may have to modify the code a little bit based on how long the timeline animation is for your clock.  I based mine on 3 seconds to complete a minute hand sweep around the clock.
    Milliseconds for each point on the clock:
    12 = 0
    1 = 250
    2 = 500
    3 = 750
    4 = 1000
    5 = 1250
    6 = 1500
    7 = 1750
    8 = 2000
    9 = 2250
    10 = 2500
    11 = 2750
    In the mouseover section for 12 o' clock, put this code...
    myVar = setInterval(function(){
         var pos = sym.getPosition();
         if (pos > 0 && pos < 50){
              sym.stop(0);
              clearInterval(myVar);
    },10);
    When you point to the time, the setInterval method loops every 100th of a second and checks the current position of the timeline.  When the timeline reaches the range between 0 and 50 milliseconds (almost impossible to hit 1 specific point), the timeline will stop at 0.  Also, the clearInterval will be fired to stop the loop.
    In the mouseout section, put this...
    sym.play();
    clearInterval(myVar);
    It start the clock again, and it also clears the loop in case you mouseout before you reach the range.
    Make sure that myVar is a global variable so you can clear it from the mouseout section.
    Repeat this for each point on the clock.  To avoid potential conflicts, you may want to use my12, my1, my2, etc. instead of myVar.  I put the milliseconds at the top that you would use as the beginning of the range.  50 milliseconds should be enough to catch it.  So, for 5 o' clock, you would make your range between 1250 and 1300.
    Let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks!

  • Inserted FLV files not playing in a published project.

    The issue: Inserted FLV files display (play) when previewing a project but not in a published project.
    My setup: Windows XP and Captivate 5
    Questions:
       1) When in Filmstrip view only the movie playback bars show, not an image of the actual movie, is this correct?
       2) When I preview a project for the first time, the FLV files display (play) in Preview mode, HOWEVER, any time I preview the project after that, the movies do not play.
       3) When I publish a project, the inserted FLV files do not display (play), they only show the movie playback bars.
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Oh yeah, all the files are in the same directory.

  • Not able to publish project as a single swf File

    Hello Captivate experts.
    I have a problem publishing only one swf file with Captivate.
    My project consists of three slides. The first one is a introduction Slide, the second and the third one only contain one swf  each (swf that i also created with captivate).
    These files are the files who always get published together with the main .swf. So after publishing I got three swfs instead of only one
    I know that a topic like this has been discussed, especially because of the new feature of Captivate 4 wich allows to export only one file, but so far i haven't read anything about swf files that can not be included. (I only found that flash video can not be inserted into a single swf).
    I realized that this problem only occurs with swf files created with captivate. Swf files created with Flash don't result in a septerated file.
    Did anybody have this problem before? Does anyone know a workaround?
    Thanks in advance

    HI Captiware,
    When you insert a swf, which was created from Captivate, as animation into Captivate and publish => the swfs are kept external. This is by design.

  • Is it possible to edit/change audio files in a published html5 file?

    Is it possible to edit/change audio files in a published html5 file?

    Theoretically, YES, but they would need to be in exactly the same format and have the same filename.  Why would you be wanting to do this?  If the new files are not the same playing length, this could potentially throw out any synchronisation with other elements in the presentation.

  • 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.

  • Linking PDF files to a published project.

    I've scoured over forums for a couple days now looking for an answer to this. I have CS5, and I'm extremely new to this program. Here's what I have going on:
    I'm creating a series of courses. The first intro/welcome course, has a menu. I want each of those menu items to pull up another published project. I publish my courses as PDF. I've read that when you set a button to pull up another file/url, your flash settings my prevent this. I've gone through the steps to fix that, but that doesn't seem to be a problem. I think I'm missing a more simple step. When I publish, I receive a message that lists the files that I have "linked" and states that they may need to be exported and placed into the published folder. Now, I'm not sure how to export them, but I have copied the relevant files into the final project folder to no avail. I've also read that if you are operating on a network, that this may pose problems, but I'm not on a network. Am I missing a really basic step to linking the files before publishing? Thanks so much for any assistance.

    Thanks, I had read the "relative link" response in other forums but just couldn't get it to work. After playing with it for a while, I just got a little bit closer to the desired result. On the drop down menu next where you enter the file name, I chose "new" instead of "current" and checked "continue playing project". When I preview the project, it works great. But, when I publish, the link does not work anymore. Could anyone provide some detail to what each of those selections do in the drop down menu? They might be the key.

  • Publish html5 file from Flash Pro CC

    I subscribed Flash Pro CC and open a fla file produced by using Flash Pro CS5, It works to be tested with Control > Test Movie > Flash Professional and also successfully published to a swf and a html files. But it didn’t work to publish with CreateJS  toolkit to be html5 file. A warning says
    “Frame numbers in EaselJS start at 0 instead of 1. For example, this affects gotoAndStop and gotoAndPlay calls. (10)
    Content with both Bitmaps and Buttons may generate local security errors in some browsers if run from the local file system”.
    What should I do to solve this problem?

    Thank you very much, Kglad. It seems to me that I should insert JS statemnts in the actionScript to complete the job. I don't have any experience in JS. My Fla has only "Click to certain frame of theTmeline" with the Actionscript such as
    OBJ_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickto1);
      function clickto1(event:MouseEvent):void
              gotoAndStop("OBJ");
    Should I insert a JS in addition to this script? The JS should be inside of  " /* JS..........*/" ? Do I have to learn the whole JS before I can know how to publish HTML5 from Flash Pro CC? Please help me.

  • Cp8.0 html5 file plays fine in chrome, but moving the timeline button causes audio to vanish. what to do?

    I have created a session with a combination of ppt slides with audio, and also a screen capture with audio and put it all together and published in html5. seems to work fine, i can open it on my computer by clicking on the html5 file (chrome and IE.) Moving the continuous scroll pointer often causes the audio to not be played. I know I can advance with forward and reverse buttons, that works ok. (Refreshing the html5 file in the browser fixes things and goes back to start)  This opens up many questions for a novice like myself:
    1. Am I posting this in the right place?
    2. Is the timeline button shown only to be admired from afar, and not touched ?
    3. Has this been fixed in 8.1 ?
    4. I don't want or need scalable window sizes ( 1300 by 720 is fine,) so should i not use html5 at all ? I want it to work on IE, Chrome, and Firefox.

    thanks. i see i need to explain better:
    I am describing the browser window as it appears if you simple display the html5 file that is created by publishing. I have not added a single button or feature to control movement. my project consists of slides with audio that advance after so many seconds, a captured screen sesssion, more slides, and a quiz. The buttons for play, forward, backward, and the horizontal progress bar with the 'button' (upward pointing triangle) are all native to the html that is being displayed and 'played.'
    Now, seeing that displayed, a user would be tempted to hit these buttons and to move the linear time by grabbing and moving the triangle pointer. sometimes this works perfectly, but sometimes moving the pointer causes audio to disappear and it will not play again on any slide. is this a clear description of the problem ? I do not understand some of your comments, but it seems that we were not on the same page, so it seems ok not to understand. FYI, my published  ~10 minute sessions are about ~20 MB for all files and folders.
    8.1 doesn't exist. i see, my mistake. i meant 8.0.1
    I do not need anything but a screen with 1300x720 resolution, so i will try going to SWF. I am recording a session to teach a software tool that is based on the eclipse environment, and the screen capture includes many graphics and much text, so any scaling whatsoever makes it ugly and hard to read. At one point i may have been thinking of scalable windows, but i realize now it is the last thing i need. The quality of the capture is excellent with 1300x720 ( and since 720 is native for powerpoint, i have no scaling in either ppoint or the captured screen sessions.

  • Is there a way to create a site map of all RoboHelp topics in a published project?

    My company uses an external search of our published RoboHelp options (as well as the internal; the external search covers all projects instead of a single one). We're looking to change search programs, but according to our web developer a lot of searches have issues finding the topics inside the published projects because of the way it links to topics using Javascript.
    I think I know the answer to this question, considering it hasn't come up in any of my searches, but in case I need a second cup of coffee -- is there a site map or listing of links within a RoboHelp project that includes all the topics? Alternately, does anyone know of a service or program that can easily create a site map from a RH project? For reference, we're using RoboHelp 9.
    Thanks!

    Look in Tools > Reports.
    Some can be saved as files. Others you can copy and paste into a text file.
