Aggregator Slide numbering (Captivate CPT 5.5)

Aggregator seems to work very well. Two things I noticed, which is:

  1. CPT film fills the screen (Web page) at first but once all the individual SWF download movie CPT group project "retract" the size of development (in this case, 800 x 600). I wonder why it is great on the first (much like "full screen" but rather as Web page complete) and then returned to the development dimension.
  2. The variable slide number on each slide in each module (movie or SWF) counts only slides in the specific module. When the next module starts, the slide number is equal to zero. It makes sense that he would do this, but I wonder if it is possible to do two things instead:
    • Index from one (1) instead of zero (0), and
    • Count all the slides, between modules, successive order so if 10 slides module 1 and module 2 is 5 slides, last played slide would be number 15 of the slide.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Michael,

Can't give you an answer to your first question.

Regarding your second question: you show slide numbers to the user in a text caption? In this case, the fastest way would be to calculate the number by a tip action. It is possible to transfer data from one file to another (such as the total number of slides in the previous file), but then you will need a cpguru widget - Michael Lund:

  • Slide numbering error - question 8 of Captivate

    I've never met before, but the blade on numbering issues says "Question 14 of 15" instead of "Question 1 of 2".

    This is slide #24 so I don't know where she gets 14 of either. When I check the next 5 slides in Captivate, it is OK, but as soon as I publish in HtML format or view HTML of Captivate, the error occurs.

    I don't see where to change this value. It is a question of verification of knowledge and is not marked even if it matters.

    I replaced the value with the text to correct it, but what is the cause?

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

  • Slide numbering - questions about Captivate 3

    I am putting together a new CBT I want to enter my PowerPoint slides.

    However, I plan to do several of the slides is available only when you press a 'button' on a particular slide.

    (for example.  Slide 5 there will be 2 buttons, it will lead to slide 28 then return, it will lead to slide 29 then return)

    I'm looking for is the removal of any slide numbering when I publish this project.

    I don't want the Viewer to see that they went from slide 5 to 28 and then back to 5.

    I understand that most people want their slides were soon, but for this project, I'm heading in the other direction.

    As the title suggests, I am using Captivate 3, which unfortunately that power will not pay for the update to Captivate 4.

    Hello

    If you do not use a playback control, there is never any indication that the user is on different slides. Even if you use a playback control, the only time I am aware that the indication of the number of slide is present is when you place the cursor or drag the progress indicator.

    See slide numbers in another area? If so, can you post a screen shot here? If you do, please insert inline using the camera icon. Do not tie. Attachments must be approved before that everyone can see them.

    See you soon... Rick

  • Audio on multiple slides in Captivate 5

    I'm new on using Captivate 5 and I am trying to record audio in Captivate that will play everything ahead of 3 slides on their own.

    I read something on a thread which spoke by clicking a "slide divider" - I can't find the 'slide' divider and on a 'distribution window' opens once I have record audio - who never appears.

    Can someone help me with this?  It seems it should be easy to find.

    Thank you

    Emily

    Hi Emily,.

    You can record audio to 3 slides in different ways.

    Option 1:

    You can record audio individually on all three slides by invoking the audio for each slide slide dialog box.

    1. on each slide you want to save the audio call audio slide dialog box (Audio > Record to > Slide) and record for the single slide. Record audio recorded will add it to the slide that you have recorded.

    2. you can follow step 1 for all three slides that you want to save.

    Option 2:

    You can record audio for all the slides in three continuous only once. You can do this in the audio SLIDES dialog box

    For ex if you want to record audio for slides 1, 2, and 3, then select slide 1 and call the slides audio audio dialog box > Record to > slides

    You get a "Record of Slide" dialog box. Enter slide numbers for which you want to record audio, and then click ok.

    This will open the audio slides dialog box.

    Dialog box audio slide shows the slide selected in the dialog box "Record of slide. Enable "streaming" and "SWF Preview" and click on the record button. It will record audio on three slides that tell you. Audio will be added to all the slides in three. You can see the preview Movie (SWF) or the slide number, mentioned in the upper right of the preview pane for the number of the slide you are saving to.

    If some parts of the audio is filled with the next slide, then you can organize the markers in the EDIT tab. Here you can play audio and pause at the place where you want your next slide to start and click on the button highlighted by Lilybiri. Its called the 'Start next slide here' button.

    Once the recording is done, click SAVE to add audio to all three slides.

    Try these and let me know if it works.

  • Import of MS Powerpoint slides to Captivate

    Anyone know why I cannot import MS Powerpoint slides in Captivate? The option is out ghost under file > import > PowerPoint presentation. I'm building a sensitive project classroom and tried to import a Content Slide that I formatted with a style of master. As a work around, since there are only two PowerPoint slides, I opened in Adobe Photoshop and turned them into jpg. Then I have those in my slide of content placed side by side. Two bad that I can't manage to put a Powerpoint presentation that would leap upward in a separate window. PS. There are things on Captivate that seem really basic to me, but I want to make a more robust program. Thank you!

    Please use PNG, not with JPEG compression if you want quality. I would NEVER start a PPT for a sensitive project (and rarely for an empty project). A great presentation tool is not a tool of e-Learning good, certainly not if your focus is on mobile devices.

    I wanted to add that if you still want to import PPT-Slides into a normal (empty) project, you can use a custom slide template. Import PPT will always need the blank slide that must be empty (except for background color later). That Blank Master slide is also necessary for any simulation software.

    It is not only for the conversion to the SWF format that you can not import PPT into a sensitive project, but also because every PPT slide has a fixed resolution, projects of nature reactive need to have a dynamic resolution, as well for the slides and objects. It's one of the reasons for the Panel properties of Position is so important for projects of a reactive nature, and the leaders have a default value of % instead of pixels.

  • Opening PPT animation slide in Captivate 6 seems weird

    Hello world

    Thanks for your help.

    Originally, I created a PowerPoint with animations on slides. Then I discovered 6 Captivate. So we bought it and you want to transfer slides to Captivate, which is relatively unproblemtatic, except for animations, which don't translate well at all. The game, but only to see half the image, get stuck, freeze and so on.

    What can I change? Should I redo all the animations? It's so frustrating. Any suggestions?

    Thank you very much!

  • How to restart the current slide in captivate?

    Hi all

    I have a slide in captivate 4 that contains several boxes that appear in the same place as the last when we click on an "ok" button (I use the chronology of fade in and out relevant legends). The customer asked when you get to the final, a watch reset button which will reload the current slide, so you could read it again, if you need (weird!).

    I'm sure the answer is obvious in the face but can't find a relevant action for the button. Could someone help please!

    Thanks in advance

    Chris Maile

    Hi Chris,

    Try to resolve your problem:

    slide1 is the slide where - that you want a button that takes the departure of slide1.

    1 have a fake Blade (say D slide) just before the slide 1.

    2 have a button on slide 1 which would have 'Jum'a drag' action and would take the user to the D slide.

    3. ask to "go to the slide" action on the OnSlideEnter bone slide D and go to slide 1.

    Let me know if this helped you to solve the problem.

  • Transparent background for slide numbering Widget number

    I work at 8, Captivate, and I inserted the widget that puts drag numbers on every page of my module. Unfortunately, each number appears inside a little white square. Can I do the transparent code box so the white square will disappear? I tried this setting in the properties of widget dialog box, but apparently this tool only allows you to format the police number, not the background color. I would appreciate any guidance; Thank you.

    Do not use this widget more, it is not compatible with HTML output.

    Why not just insert a text container (form or legend, make it transparent) on the first slide, post it for the rest of the project and always on top. Insert variables using the X key in the role of composition of the text container properties panel:

    Slide it $$cpInfoCurrentSlide$ $ $ $cpInfoSlideCount$ $

    The advantage compared to having it on the slide, is the text container has an ID that makes controllable: you can hide/show it if necessary on some slides (like the question slides, that have their appropriate progress indicator).

    Be careful though: it is a dynamic, generated text over time. This means that you must use a font for the Web, to have watched as static text. It depends on the output as well, but since you are using a widget, I guess you are using output SWF. In this output, all static text is converted into images, which allows you to use another font even if it is not available on the system by the trainee. This is not the case for dynamic text

  • Question about slide numbers

    Hi guys, new user Adobe Captivate here. I wanted to add page numbers to a project that I am currently but wanted to exclude the first two slides to the County for this 1 page should show slide 3.

    I've seen a tutorial that shows how to use variables (cpinfocurrentslide) system to a model of slides. I did this and created a model of slides and inserted the mentioned variable. But when I saw the project, there is still the first 2 slides even if they use a different master slides.

    What could I have missed?

    Thank you

    Erick

    Hello and welcome,

    Then, you will need to create a custom counter. This can be done with a fast action (or joint action if you're on CP7) triggered on enter for each slide:

    • Create a variable user v_slidenumber (project, Variables)
    • create a tip (project, advanced Actions) action which should look like this:
      V_slidenumber = cpInfoCurrentSlide expression - 2
    • insert this variable user v_slidenumber on the model of the slides (or on the first slide where you want to use and time during the rest of the project)

    ATTENTION: variables are case-sensitive. Always insert them into a container of text (legend or form) using the X key in the Format of the text container accordion.

  • Volume slider to Captivate PlayBar

    Can someone point me in the direction of how to create or add a volume slider to an existing Captivate PlayBar?  I need to start my course flash in mode full-screen that covers the Windows taskbar and prevents users from adjusting their volume from this location.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I use Adobe Captivate 9 and I have access to the suite for the edition of FLA CC

    The VolumeControl widget there, but you can't put it in the play bar. Ditto for any custom shape button, both must be on the slides. You want to output SWF or HTML? For the SWF output, you could edit the widget (those are wdgt files) in CC to animate.  For HTML, I leave you the answer to a JS expert. You can find all the bars reading under en_US (or your specific local folder), in the gallery.

  • How to open a new window when you open a file from a slide on Captivate 9

    I am almost at the end of my first e-learning project on Captivate 9 and I have a small question: when I open a PDF file to a slide via a hyperlink or a button (via an ' action'), it's just switching page in the web browser instead of opening a new window.

    So I need to press return to return to the project, but it is up to the start screen.

    Is it possible to open a second window instead of 'project closing' when opening a file?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    You must select 'new' in the dropdown menu next to the link entry field.

  • How to get the number of the current slide in Captivate 9?

    With the help of Cap 9.

    Is there a system variable containing the number of the current slide?

    I build a quiz with a drag and drop interaction in the pool of questions. Naturally, the built in Question x of y object is not included, so I have to build a replacement of some sort.

  • The transition only slides, 8 Captivate

    I created a video a couple of years in an earlier version of Captivate and had Exchange on the first slide after that we experienced a change of company name. Import the updated PowerPoint presentation slide was successful, and copy the old slide audio to the new also went well. The slide plays very well.

    However, after I published (SWF/HTML5) video, the video will stop after this new slide and will not transition to the next. I do not Captivate enough to know where to go to fix this. Can someone help me please?
    Thank you!

    Have you checked the properties of the slide to the new slide? There should be an action button where you can see what are the functions, when entering the slide (to enter) and when you leave the slide (left). If those who have the value 'No. Actions', could answer you with a screenshot of the calendar of the slide which does not advance? I'm curious to know if there is something out there that has some time put on pause the slide.
