• Link to the embedded Captivate slide HR topics?

  RH10, WebHelp, Captivate 6

  Hello

  I use HR for years, but I am new to Captivate.

  I want to have a substitution effect in a topic of WebHelp, whereby the user can hover the mouse over a chart and a window will open. Inside the pop - up will be hyperlinks to topics of a WebHelp project.

  My understanding of this day, is that I can insert a Captivate slide in topic WebHelp to achieve this. The slide in Captivate would contain the graphic background and a "slidelet.

  My question is, at what point can I create hyperlinks to WebHelp topics in the slidelet? I have to do to Captivate, and if yes how can I specify the path the link target?

  Or I can make this link after I got the Captivate slide and slidelet in WebHelp project?

  Hmmm, for some reason, I forget that they have added the ability to Captivate 6.

  Good so what you have to do is consider where the Captivate movie will (as in which folder) at the time wherever it is presented in the WebHelp. If you are linking to the XXX.htm section and within RoboHelp, this topic is in a folder called FolderOne, it will depend on the folder that the Captivate movie is. Often, they are inserted in the root of the project. So if this proves to be the case, you should insert the following text in the field:

  FolderOne/XXX.htm

  

  I'll give my theory a try and see if it works for me.

  Remember that the links might fail when you test locally, unless you add the location of the project to the list of sites approved for the Flash Player.

  See you soon... Rick

• Captivate 5: slides will not play automatically

  I am facing a problem with Captivate 5 (just starting to use it, in fact still a trial version but the full purchase in a few weeks) that I hope someone can help me with. I have a presentation of 32 slides with audio (imported by blade) and some animation boxes and setting highlighted on some slides. Animations and highlight boxes are synchronized with the audio. When I saw or publish it in format pdf, I noticed that it does not automatically play the slides. The audio starts automatically, but must press the play button to get the boxes/highlight to start animation timing. So if you press the play button 5 seconds after the start of the audio on a slide, and then the highlight boxes and animations will not match upward (they would be 5 seconds behind). In addition, the slides didn't automatically advances until you press the playback button (and the "timing" on the slide runs until the end).

  I thought it was something in terms of do not have autoplay, but I put it on auto run. I even played with having the preloader up to 0 to 100 just about everywhere in between. I also played with the settings of each slide to see if it was something in terms of the action of dragging out. I fixed to continue, and even updated no action (where I had to click on the next button to move forward), but then again, nothing helps.

  Also, where this is relevant, I have a next and back button each screen. On the first screen, I have a text entry box (I shoot the variable in another form), and the length of the blade is defined by the audio (a few seconds).

  What can I do to fix this? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

  

  Hello and welcome to the forum,

  What is the chronology of the first slide? I see not all objects, because you're talking about a text entry area that is not visible. What I see, is that you have a fade the first slide and the 2 buttons pause the slide to about 1.5 seconds after the start. The slide itself seems to be much longer than the audio, unlike what you said in your question, or you have an object much later? In this case, the problem is with the two buttons that do a break before this object. Could you post a screenshot of the full chronology of the first slide, maybe what you see is only linked to that?

• iDVD 08 - trying to get a slide show to 'looped '.

  Hi Gang

  I created a slide show in iPhoto 08 and exporting it successfully to iDVD.

  I looked everywhere for an Option "Looping".

  
  

  Went to iDVD preferences:

  Advanced settings - film settings - set up show - impossible to find a "loopback Option?
  

  Can someone please lend a hand with this?

  Thank you

  Found the answer:

  After dragging the clip in iDVD

• Start and stop a loop automatically subtracted at each iteration

  Hello

  I know that there are some topics about this, but I couldn't find any solution, especially because I'm using version 7.1 and cannot open files from new version.

  My problem is the following:

  I need to load a tank of 6 to 10 in the morning, every day for 3 days. The process should start and stop automatically, which means, no funds to start or stop. Start and stop conditions come from time.

  I start with a big loop of 72 iterations, which is 72 hours.

  The tank must start at level 6, whenever he starts.

  After the departure, 1 unit must be subtracted to each iteration. That means, that the tank is level 10, at 06:00 07:00 level 9 and so on. At the end of the day, at 10:00 the fill level is equal to 2.

  The next day, the process must start again and the tank must start at level 6.

  Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

  Hi Florian.

  Thank you for your message. That solved this problem, but in fact my VI did not work as I wanted.

  I created a new one, with and an external file from 1 to 24, repeat 3 times. Now I got it. Maybe there is a better way to do it, but it works now. Thanks for all the help. I appreciate a lot.

• Drag-and - drop 'submit' button and hand - 9 Captivate slider

  Unlike normal questionnaires 'submit' buttons, the Captivate 9 Drag & Drop 'submit' button does not appear able to show the hand cursor to the passage of the mouse.

  Importing a project of Captivate 8 to 9, it sometimes works, sometimes doesn't work, so I can't find a way to make it work on naked new projects created with Captivate 9.

  The Drag & Drop option "Use hand cursor" is clearly displayed, although affecting only the sources and targets but not the button 'send '.

  Captivate 9 runs on Windows 7.

  Thanks for the help,

  Matteo

  Moderator: I took your personal address, this is a public forum

  I'm sorry, but the button submit in D & D seems to have the ability to display the hand cursor. It uses the same style buttons embedded on the Quiz slides, but the hand cursor doesn't do not part of the style. I've often done drag the button to send off the stage and just set hotkey (as input).  I also checked in Captivate 8 but he has never had the option to display a hand cursor to the button send D & d, so I'm surprised when you write "when you import a project of Captivate 8 to 9, it works sometimes"

• From captivate slides module 8

  I run a Moodle site with several modules of Captivate 8. However, I have a small problem. Whenever a user enters a module, it goes to the last slide (s), whether or not he saw, regardless if the person clicks Retry. Now, I understand that this is the default for Captivate projects, but not when I click Retry

  Thank you

  In the properties for the project, under SCORM, if you "never send resume data" unchecked, the CP project always will return its current position and the value of 'cmi.exit' to 'suspend'... that CMS should then read as "when the lesson is revived, it should return to its previous state"... and he sends in return than previous lesson_location returned to the CP project and summaries of CPR.

  The easy way to avoid what you see is SO check the option 'never send resume Data', in which case the project would never tell the LMS last location and since she will not set 'cmi.exit' to suspend, it must remain as a 'default' (or similar):

  ( cmi.core.exit & cmi.exit )

  However, when you say "click Retry", it's in your LMS, correct?

  If Yes, then I would * guess * that, when you click on that, the LMS should NOT return data from resumes and change the value of 'cmi.exit' to 'default '. Is that going to happen? If not, how is the LMS button "Retry" supposed to work (a question for your LMS vendor)

• Captivate slides not changing (7)

  I have an advanced level of action that is supposed to hide 4 objects on a slide and then switch to another slide. Captivate leather 4 objects, but will not slide change. I tried using various options to get to the correct slide. The most specific being jump slide x. Captivate refuses to change the blade. Anyone know what could cause this problem and how to fix it?

  On the next page where you show your quiz settings, he fix things if you enable "allow a move backward"?

• Problem adding video to Captivate slide

  Hello

  I'm having a problem adding a video file FLV to Captivate. Basically, after that I have published on a SWF file, the video does not appear on the slide at all. It's just empty.

  After searching for a bit, I found that the file FLV MUST include * metadata *.

  However, I added medatada with VLC Media Player, and it still shows the same behavior. There's a certain * amount * metadata? Is there a * type * of metadata without which the video not displayed?

  Adobe help thread talking about what we call the ' Kit Flash video '-which is a stand-alone product or one extension of another product? Is it free? Are there any other free alternatives?

  I'm just very confused.

  Thank you!

  I ended up answering my own question. But just in case this helps someone else, I'll post my solution.

  Essentially, I just re-created the video in MP4 format. Then I used MetaZ (for Mac) to write metadata in the video. Finally, I imported the video as an object and when I posted the video, Captivate it transmutes to the FLV format needed.

  The video is now displayed correctly.

• 5.5 Captivate slide advance question

  Hello all - I have a project, Adobe Captivate 5.5 with exaclt 36 slides in it. The last 11 slides being a quiz question 10 with a final rating page. The "timing" on the rating page is 19.2 seconds exactly and the project should be completed at this time, and then it should initiate a URL that I added to the preference 'to the end'. The problem I encounter is that sometimes, the URL is launched after the slide of score ends at 19.2 seconds, and sometimes it isn't. Sometimes, there are another 15-20 seconds before the URL is launched trolling. Also, when I click on the 'Continue' button embedded on the page of notation, it never works. I guess he has to finish the project and launch URL. Use the arrow button to the front doesn't work anymore. Thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide this.

  Hmmm, have different questions.

  1. Where is the point to pause on the slide to score? Don't look in the calendar, but the chronology: thin vertical black line right to a double white line, this is the break? Because you have extended the score slide that much (default is 3secs), if you leave the actions for the Pass / Fail Quiz default level "Continue", the playhead will continue for the rest of the slide after the pause point.
  2. 'In the end' preferences? It's in the preferences, project, beginning and end, Action at the end?

  Personal, I recommend you to have a short slide after slide of Score (which were never as last slide) and start the URL with the event on enter the short blade.

  But be sure to change the default setting for pass/fail on Quiz level of 'Continue' to «Go ├a next page»

• I can't cut + paste Captivate Slides.

  Hi there guys

  I use 6 Captivate and I did a project quite important (28 slides). I would now like it split into 2 small projects so I can publish separately, however, I don't know how to do this without reinventing the wheel? I would like to export to SCORM-ready files.

  Thanks for any help you may be able to offer!

  Hello

  You can simply select the slides in the film and then copy and paste again project.

  If you are also a result of the quiz slide in your project, you should uncheck during the copy of the slides, like you can not move slide result quiz from one project to the other.

  Once you copy the slides with quiz inside, slide result quiz will also be created in the new project.

  Thanks and greetings

• integrating the video with regular Captivate Slides

  Is it possible to add a demo video of the project in the middle of another Captivate project which consists of slides from Captivate ordinary? If so, how would I go all this?

  Hi Jay,.

  Yes, did a lot of times (there was one of my first questions during the previews as well). There are different possibilities:

  1. Create the project of cpvc (video), publish it on MP4 and insert it into the MP4. This isn't my choice if I plan well before, because you must pass to the cpvc, if you want to change something in the video.
  2. Start with a cptx project and instead create a separate video, use the option insert record Slide, demo. The slide after registration will resemble a FMR slide, but you can change it of in the cptx file, the video editor you know since the cpvc files opens when you choose to edit the slide video. I mainly use this approach, but I have a lot of RAM on my desktop PC. Maybe not the best choice if the system is more limited.
  3. If the number of regular slides, project is especially video, you can add more static objects in the cpvc file directly. She will end up like a long video. My YouTube videos have been created this way.

  BTW: insertion of a project of crude in a cptx file is not possible (yet). I've been begging but no way...

• Adding a widget to a questionnaire captivate slide timer

  I'm trying to let users know how many time they slide.

  I found this blog, http://lilybiri.posterous.com/timer-widget-to-stress-your-learners and exactly what I need, the left display of the time, but I am very new to Captivate... only on my 3rd on my trial and do not know how to go on creating variables and the widget. Is there a video of training anywhere, or can someone take me through step by step to create a left view please?

  Did you hear sigh me? I'm still amazed why beginners want to dive immediately in the case of using complicated?

  OK, here's a few blog posts with links to basic articles on the variables, no video tutorial here:

  You don't have to create the widget of the timer, it is available with Captivate.

• Help with Captivate Slide Focus - Double click

  First of all, I would like to say this being my first experience of Captivate - fix a bug.
  
  I have a slide (in fact, all of the slides in the CBT) with highlight 3 boxes (superior, middle section, the bottom section) in which the legends and the buttons are placed on top. All HBs are at the bottom of the timeline above the slide. When spotted in Captivate or publication into an LMS, it takes several mouse clicks to highlight and the buttons run. I tried to move deadlines autour, but nothing doesn't seem to eliminate the need to click somewhere on the slide to give focus first and then clicking on the second time on a button to activate it. Help, please! Thank you very much. Donna

  Sorry, I forgot to mention add this line in thetag of the html file

• How to stop the slide show to start automatically on the desktop

  On my Windows 7, my graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce 310. Within the last week, with the inactive computer on the desktop, all of a sudden a slideshow will begin watch the images located in the directory "my images". I've never set up something like this. Desktop/Customize, I have a slide show of some of the landscapes on the Aero themes. I have only 5 of these verified and they continue to change the blades at 5 minute intervals. However, this unwanted 'My images' slideshow takes over and begins to play. How can I prevent that from happening. Thank you

  I forgot to mention that when I open the NVIDIA card (that I'm here and I never went forward), everything is not checked.

  I think I can find the answer, but I don't know to see you for a few days if the problem still exists. When I went to customize, I found that there are 2 themes, one save and the other unregistered. By clicking on one of them, the drop-down arrow showed a directory called "Image library" which, once opened was the "My pictures" directory that had the same pictures that have been popping up. In addition, everyone had a check mark on it. I clicked on 'Clear all' / register and liquidated. Then I went to the theme and deleted. At least for a day, I have no pop ups that occur.

  There is always a strange thing is happening. When I deleted the theme which was the directory of the images as a choice library, the only theme on the left on the screen was a "unsaved theme".  I couldn't delete it. It seems to be OK since the only slide show which continues to work is that I chose the default categories with 6 audited slides. However, if I click on the 'wallpaper' in the lower left corner of the screen, the screen opens showing all categories with my slides selected audited. At the top of the page, there is a drop-down list "image location". These are several places, including "photo library". When I clicked on it, once again, 'My pictures' folder open and all images have a checkmark on them again. I do not understand why they have been checked since I did a 'clear all' earlier and saved. I don't think that having checked them are bad something, but I don't understand why they are checked when I've previously saved in a State as non-verified. This is another example of why Windows 7 is so bad. All should be disabled until the user decides what he or she wants.
