Random slides in captivate 7

Is there a way to make the slides random in captivate 7 that is available for use with .exe files not swf or html5. These slides are not for a quiz. I am trying to make a sight word application for younger children so they will not learn the words in order as they appear but rather that they appear at random.
Any assistance would be greatfully appreciated.

Okay, I've done that.  I am not the LMS administrator, but I created a free SCORM cloud account, uploaded the file and tested it.  Now I'm just trying to figure out how to see the results!

  • Keyboard-only navigation drives to random slides - Help!

    Hi all,
    This was an issue I experienced in previous Mac versions that I was able to mitigate by recreating the project in the PC version.  I've since abandoned the Mac version.  However, we recently upgraded to Captivate 8 and it now looks like the issue migrated to the PC version.
    The projects I create must be Section 508 compliant.  The issues I'm experiencing have to do with using the keyboard to navigate through the course.  The course only has 6 slides.  The slides are identical and have 6 buttons used to navigate to a specific slide.  The programming works fine.  I can use the mouse and everything works as intended.  However, when I use tab to select the button and press enter, it drives me to completely random slides.  You don't get consistent results either. 
    Suppose I use tab to navigate to button 3 (which sends you to slide 3) and press enter.  One time it might send me to slide 5 - the next time it might send me to slide 1 - there's no consistency to the error.  Again - I can use the mouse and everything works perfectly as intended, but when I start using tab/enter the whole thing goes haywire. 
    So, has anyone else experienced issues like this?  I created everything from scratch within Captivate 8, so I can eliminate the variable of old templates/projects designed in a previous version. 

    I'll attempt to rephrase:
    I built a project in Captivate 8.  There are multiple buttons on the right which take the user to a new page where they see a video.  When you click each of the buttons with the mouse they work as intended; however, when you use tab/enter to navigate it drives you to completely random pages with no consistency. 
    Please watch the embedded video demonstrating the issue.  Also, the link below will allow you to download my project file.

  • Is there any way to PAUSE/RESUME the actual recording while recording a Video Demo slide in Captivate 8?

    If I have to take an "off-screen" action while recording a video demo slide in Captivate I am forced to END and start a separate video demo to continue.
    This fragments my demo and seems an unnecessary set of steps.
    Is there a way to pause the recording for long enough, say to clear my throat, and then resume?
    Thanks.

  • 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

  • When I copy and paste a powerpoint slide into Captivate the slide is blurry how do I fix that

    When I copy and paste a powerpoint slide into Captivate the slide is blurry how do I fix that

    Have you tried importing it with standard workflow instead of coyping and pasting.
    Is the resolution of your powerpoint presentation and Captivate Project same, make sure it is same, else, it would rescale it to fit on the sldie, rescaling might detoriate the quality.
    Thanks,

  • Can Slides from Captivate 4 be pasted into Captivate 3?

    I had never used Captivate but I downloaded the Captivate 4 demo and was able to create a training (this software is sweet).  Anyhow, my company has Captivate 3 and I do not have this on my machine so instead of re-creating this training in Captivate 3, I was wondering if anyone can tell me if they are able to successfully copy slides from Captivate 4 to Captivate 3.  ( I have already read that Captivate is not backward compatible and noticed there is no option in Captivate 4 to save this as a Captivate 3 file).  Thanks for you help.

    Hi there
    You should be able to have version 4 as well as 3 on the same PC. Then copy slides from 4 and paste into 3.
    Of course, you cannot expect any features specific to 4 to work in 3.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Is there a way to replace a Power Point slide in Captivate and keep the CC notes?

    Hello,
    I have a lot of Power Point slides in my Captivate project. The Power Point presentation is on a Share Point, so it is impractical to "link" the Captivate project with the Power Point presentation.  Now and then we need to make changes to the Power Point slides and then replace the old slide in Captivate with the new slide.  We have a lot of CC notes and TTS attached to each slide, so I lose all of that when I replace the slide.  Is there a way to keep the synchronized CC and TTS notes in place, and just replace the acutal slide?
    Thank you!
    Ryan

    1 - simplest way:
    drag the sound file on to the audio well in the Inspector > document > document tab
    music can only start on the first slide and will play untill the music ends, you can only have one music file in the presentation
    2 - more control
    drag the sound file on to any slide, add the  images on to the same slide and use Builds to reveal each image in turn

  • Disabling plabar on specific slides in captivate 5.5

    I have my quiz slides in adobe capitivate 5.5 been generated randomly from pools I created. How can I disable the playbar on all quiz slides in an elearning course?
    many thanks

    I would insert a very short slide, just before the first random slide and create this advanced action, to be triggered on entering that slide:
    Assign cpCmndShowPlaybar with 0
    Go to Next slide

  • How to add an audio click box on a quiz slide - adobe captivate 6?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to add an audio click box on a question slide. It works brilliantly on normal slides but theres no option to add a click box on quiz slides.
    I'm trying to add audio on click. So, when somebody clicks that area they will hear a sound. Is there a way to do this on a question slide?
    Thanks

    Replace those old click boxes by shapes configured as buttons. Have a look at this post:

  • Partial Scoring on Matching Quiz Slide in Captivate 8

    Hi,
    I tried searching for the answer to this question before posting but I only located an answer for Captivate 5.5.  Is it possible to do partial scoring for a matching quiz slide in Captivate 8.  If not, does someone know a workaround?  It would also be helpful to me to know which questions slides allow partial scoring.  I am posting my trainings on an intranet site and not an LMS so I don't have the capability to do partial scoring from the LMS.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Only one type of question allows partial scoring: MCQ with multiple correct answers.
    Workaround is to create a custom question slide. The score can be stored in a variable, you'll have to collect the variable. Have some blog posts about partial scoring in custom question slides, before it appeared for MCQ in Cp. Here is an example:
    Widgets and Custom Questions - part 2 - Captivate blog
    I once created a custom matching question slide for a client (who never paid), using the D&D interactive widget from InfoSemantics, but that is only for SWF output.  And it had partial scoring.

  • Presenter starting random slides on re-launch from LMS

    After publishing and uploading to our LMS, I'm able to view the entire presentation, but upon completion and relaunch, the lesson begins at random slides - sometime slide 4, sometimes 25, sometimes 11, etc...
    I need the presentation to start at the beginning for viewers to watch again from the beginning.

    Just spent some time chatting with tech support.  For some reason they have never heard of this problem but it seems to be all over the internet.  Anyway their solution was to right click on the Power Point icon and set properties to run as the administrator.  Then put all the source files on the same drive (now on the "C" drive).   OK, I did all that and got the same results.  Next idea was to create a short test presentation so I created a 5 slide test and Presenter skipped slide 3.  On the suggestion from another user I looked at the recorded video (not the edited video) and you can see the missing slide flash by.  It is on screen less than a second.  So it has something to do with the recording.

  • When recording a Video demo slide in Captivate 8, pressing the [END] key takes more than a minute to stop the recording. Why is there such a lag?

    When recording a Video demo slide in Captivate 8, pressing the [END] key takes more than a minute to stop the recording. Why is there such a lag? Additionally, the software I record experiences terrible lag times. For instance, It may take 15 seconds to display a 2-digit number I typed into a blank field. the same software has no lag issues when I'm not recording it.

    Yes and no. The CPTX file is on my PC. Our software that I'm making the demo of is on the network. but I'm not the "IT Guy" so I can't provide specifics; however, I work at a computer software company and we probably have more servers than employees. The network hardware is kept current. I've been making similar tutorials for 10 years and haven't run into this issue until switching to the subscription Captivate.

  • Audio Recording to Slide Freezes Captivate

    I am hoping somebody can help me with this.  I am a relatively new user to Captivate so I sure that I am missing something obvious.

    I have imported both Background and Slide audio and been able to edit it but I would like to record directly into my project.
    Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

  • Add buttons to quiz-slide? Captivate 7

    Hi there,
    I am really having a hard time trying to add buttons to a quiz-slide (fill in the blank).
    Is it really true, that there is no work-around? All I need to do, is to use the smart shapes/ image buttons, to link to other slides in the project.
    Anyone??
    Thanks, in advance
    //Niklas

    Maybe this blog post could help, because it is not always that easy to have
    shape buttons on question/score slides. I encountered several small issues
    and tried to figure out workarounds:

  • Converting Captivate 3 slides to Captivate 2

    Hi,
    I created a module on Captivate 3, however my office colleagues have captivate 2. They are unable to open the slides in Captivate 2 to record voice. Is there a way to convert slides from captivate 3 to captivate 2. Please advice.
    Thanks

    Hi there
    If you have a PC with both version 2 and 3 installed where you can run them side by side, you can copy slides from 3 and paste into 2.
    Other than that, just have them create blank projects in 2 with slides timed identically to 3 and have them record the narration. Then you could export the Narrated clips and import them into the 3 project.
    Cheers... Rick
