.cptl - insert > placeholder Slide - gray

Captivate 8.0.1.242 - Windows 7 64 bit


I'm creating a captivate template (*.cptl) and when I go to Insert menu in film, the "placeholder Slides" mode, it is grayed out. I already read a few posts here who say that it must be enabled to captivate the model files. So no idea where I make a mistake?

Rod,

I found the problem. I created a new empty project as you said (in the floating of captivate when window opens) and the options were not present. When I created this new file, he was named untiled.cptx. Then, I realized that when I started with my current template file, I started from a blank project too from the window floating and registered as a model. That's the problem. As you said that it worked for you, for a new CPTL file, on the file menu, I created a new project of the GET template file go and then those options were available.

So this is a weird problem where Captivate allows you to save your file not saved as a file CPTL CPTX. But in doing so, it does not allow option placeholder to slide the Insert menu! Who would have thought that!

Thanks for the help of stem.

  • The missing feature: not insert > placeholder?

    Greetings. I am running the patched version (4.0.1 to build 1658) and do not have the function Insert > placeholder...

    I mean, it's just not there, objects Standard is here and objects you draw is there, but no option space RESERVED to insert in the Insert menu.

    No idea what might happen?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Normally, the option only appears if you change a project template. (File CPTL) This is because a model is used to prompt the user model or remind them of what is to be inserted.

    You change a project template?

    See you soon... Rick

  • Insert quickly slides of several files

    I have been using PowerPoint for many years, but now I want to change my speech.  On PowerPoint, there is a feature where I can "insert slides from file".  I have often used this function to insert the files (database of song lyrics) quickly to form a unique presentation with special songs, I need on a given day.

    I would like to know if there is a similar feature on Keynote, or if there is another way I can insert quickly from the files of a database to compile a unique presentation.

    It would be much too tedious open individual database files, select all of the slides, drag them into the new format, and then close each file database.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

    If there is another way I can insert quickly from the files of a database to compile a unique presentation.

    Only databases Keynote can access media import files are iTunes and PHOTOS.

    Insert quickly slides of several files

    Keynote can directly move the media to a folder if they are graphic compatible QuickTime video and audio.  Drag and drop pictures on the Panel of the browser, it is located on the left side of the slide canvas.

  • Captivate 7 - Insert white Slide bug?

    Hello

    I created a tutorial in Captivate 7 (Win 8.1) using screenshots (taken from another computer by using Windows Update 8.1). I want the last slide in a white screen I will then model. I use "insert > white Slide" to make. The slide in the Filmstrip, seems to be empty. However, when I click on the slide, it shows a screen shot of a previous slide. I can't get rid of it. The image file does not appear in the timeline, nor, as noted earlier, in the film strip.

    What can I do? I want to add a SmartShape to cover the screen, but I want the watered down to 80% alpha. When I do that, I can see the background image that shouldn't be there in the first place. Help!

    Check if the timing of the image on the previous slide is set for the rest of the project.

  • Insert the slide in question in the middle of the video

    I just bought 6 Captivate.  I have some videos of existing comprehensive training that have been saved in Camtasia.  They have no quiz.  I would like to import video in Captivate and insert slides of quiz overall.  For example, the end user will monitor the first minute of the video.  Then, the video stops and the user is presented with a Question slide.  The user finishes this quiz and start the video.  the video stops at the next slide in the Question.

    I can't understand how to insert the Question slides in the middle of the video.   I tried different search phrases in forum search but can't seem to find this exact topic.  I plead for a feature that does not exist?

    Hello

    I'll be happy to explain the other method as well. You can refer to the below mentioned video that I created for you:

    I hope this helps!

  • Playback control bar disappears after the slide with Captivate SWF inserted on slides

    I inserted a Captivate SWF file on a blade, and after that drag the playback control bar disappers into the module.

    The Captivate SWF inserted is not the playback control bar.

    Captivate 5.5.

    Insertion of products Captivate SWF in another Captivate file could cause a lot of problems, you will find several threads in this forum.

    Is it really not possible to insert slides in the main file, instead of inserting the SWF file? Or by calling the small project of the main file?

  • Video size in the table of contents by using insert video slide

    Hello is it possible to increase the size of the video in the table of contents, it automatically resizes it to 144 of the height and width 196 and I wish it was larger than the original size is greater. Or I can't do and I need to use another method?

    Thank you

    Xav

    Hello and welcome to the forum,

    No, I'm sorry, you won't be able to increase the size of this table of contents video.

    You could insert the video on each slide or, if you do not use Captivate 5, insert it on a master slide that you apply to all slides?

  • DW CC hangs after inserting code slide show DMX

    Hello

    My license of dmx is installed in DW CS6, then I copied the code in my project completed and inserted into my DW CC page. Once the code inserted the program crashes and I can no longer access the page I was working on that.

    This is the DMX code that belongs in the header:

    < link rel = "stylesheet" type = "text/css" href = "Styles/dmxHTML5Slideshow.css" / > "

    "< link rel ="stylesheet"type =" text/css"href="Styles/dmxHTML5Slideshow/minimalistic/minimalistic.css "/ >

    < script type = "text/javascript" src = "ScriptLibrary/dmxHTML5Slideshow.js" > < / script >

    Did anyone see an error that would cause program Crash?

    I can post the code if necessary complete slideshow. I was also to enter this code in the CSS}. dmxSlideshow.dmxSlide img, .dmxSlideshow .dmxSlidecanvas {max-width: none! important ;}}  This can have a few typos I couldn't cut and paste. The slideshow works in CS6

    Thank you

    You should check the DMX Zone to see if they have an update for CC extension.   You cannot use .mxp extensions in CC.

  • Question slide insert problem in Captivate 9 Responsive Design project

    I'm trying to insert a question after a slide in the project but Captivate keeps placing below the new issue with a pile of other issues in the project. When she did this, I can't move the slide to the post I want to in class stream nor can I move any other current slide. What should I try?

    That's what I did: I deleted the cache. I tried the previous iterations of the project without result. A conditional question: I am not connected to the internet on this computer. which would affect the behavior of classes?

    I don't know if there is any problem with how to set quiz preferences but I don't know that I have not had any problems with the insertion of slides where I wanted them earlier in the development of the project.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Chris

    The usual reason for this behavior is that you try to insert a quiz with Questions before the test.  Questions before the test can be placed at the beginning of a lesson BEFORE all other issues for the main quiz quiz.

    You may have several types of quiz in this module?

  • Re-insert the 8 Captivate quiz results slide

    I created a course of six modules, which all have a short quiz at the end. During the preview of the project with the project manager, quiz slides do not move forward in the preview of the course (and no more than the bar room). I had to go and remove the quiz slides and slides of results in order to highlight the entire course of my manager.

    Now that I'm trying to work on game shows, I am able to insert question slides but not the results slides that I would appear at the end of each short quiz.  This could be a framework global quiz I should change? Is there a way I can reset the quiz in the course and start from the beginning (with slides of results displayed)?

    I realize it's probably 101 stuff for everything that you users of Captivate veterans, but please bear with me... I am a newbie to Captivate.

    Thanks in advance for your ideas!

    I am little confused: you can have only a single slide quiz and 01:20 in a CP-file (requirement of SCORM) and you seem to talk about several slides of results?  That should mean that you have created custom intermediate score slides as I explained here: Intermediate Score slides - Captivate blog

    Or each module in a separate cptx file? The slide of score will not be deleted at all, it's just hidden. You can make it visible again using preferences, settings, "Score at the end of the Quiz Show" Quiz

    Regarding the reset of the questions that is possible using the recovery button. Return to the user will be sent to the first slide question or being marked. This means that you will have to provide more than 1 attempt on Quiz level. More information about the slide in question/score:

  • Insertion of video file in question slide

    Hello

    I inserted a video (after conversion to FLV etc.) file in a slide that is triggered by clicking on a button on another slide.

    My problem is that when I play the slide with the video, the video starts, but when she finished the user for this project will have no way to return to the previous slide, where they came. I tried adding buttons allowing them to 'End video and go back to the previous slide', but when the video it is melted in the background, thus hiding the buttons. Can someone tell me how to set options on the video to return to the previous slide automatically after the end of the video, or stop the video fading to the background of the slide?

    Thank you.

    Hi again.  You are right.  Version 5.5 doesn't have this option to Pause slide.  But in 5.5, the Insert > option FLV or F4V does include the slide to break until the end of the video option in the properties.  Insert > video Slide allows .3gp, .mp4, .mov and .avi also files, but they will launch Adobe Media Encoder to convert the FLV or F4V file.  So I suggest that you use this option instead of insert > video Slide.  But the two insert options should work OK.  With Insert > video Slide, you just do the chronology of the slide with the video as long as the video is.  But you always define the properties of the slide on the output to go to the slide last visit.

  • Cannot add slides (by copy, import, insert)

    Hi guys,.

    My problem is that I can't add a new slide to my project. Import from other projects, inserting a slide blank, copy doesn't work and causes the crash of the application. CP farm by some, try to run one of these actions.

    Can I make changes to othe project: new audio recording, editing of slides and remove them, but even after the removal of half of the project does not allow to add slides.

    I use Windows XP, Flash edition 4.0.0 CP.

    Any ideas?

    I tried to use some slides from this project and copy or to import them to the new, but even small blades numbers the application crashes and closes.

    Would appreciate your help.

    Hello

    First, you might want to isolate the problem is bound to Captivate or just a single project. You do this by creating a totally new and fresh, space project. Then try to copy/paste or import a few slides.

    If it works, it means that Captivate is fine and the problem in this particular project.

    If it fails, perhaps a reinstall is needed, but you can try to reset the DAT file before you reinstall.

    To reset the DAT file, close Captivate and open Windows Explorer.

    Navigate to where resides the DAT file. On my PC under Windows XP Pro, it is located here:

    D:\Documents and Rick Data\Adobe\Adobe Captivate

    Your location will likely vary. For example, your drive letter is probably C. Your connected name will be different. And if you use Vista or Windows 7, the location is probably quite different. The location can be hidden on your part in Windows, then you need to adjust the display options for Windows Explorer to show you these files. (Tools > Folder Options > view > show hidden files and clear the skin protected operating system files.)

    Just rename or delete the dat file, you will find. Then restart Captivate.

    If the problem seems to be that with a single project, you must create a new empty project in the same dimensions. Then copy the slides in the broken project and paste it in the new.

    See you soon... Rick

  • How to adjust an image in a slide show

    I have an image that is in a slide show, but the image is cut off at the top and bottom. I tried to resize the image to the PS on the size of a picture that looks great, but it does not work. The top and the bottom are always cut off. Does anyone know how I fix this?

    Hi Philippe,.

    When you insert a slide show, click to select the image of heroes.

    Once you're on hero image, please change dimensions in the Panel to the dimensions of the image transformation.

    When the box of the image of heroes and the image have the same dimensions, you won't have any problems.
