Help editing Master Slide - objects were staying is not put on film

Hello

I'm a little more recent for Captivate in what I have edited and created projects where someone else is developing the model. I am currently developing a model in Captivate 8.01.242 and am really frustrated.

In my model, I use placeholders for items that I have to change for different slides (for example, images or titles) and for forms using smartshapes I always want to appear. I have a lot of layers on some slides, but once I got them in the right order, I save, switch to the view of the film, and things don't overlay properly! For example, I put an image placeholder in the background, but in the film display, that's on top. Or a placeholder text is hidden in a smart form.

I tried selecting 'Master drag objects On Top' and shift things, but aren't always in the correct order. Is interesting, if I select, deselect, and reselect this option, slide rearrange the objects each time.

Any help that can be provided would be great! I searched the forums without success on this issue.

Thank you!

I would recommend THAT DO not use Captivate CPTL file format to create the project "templates".

Out of all the reasons that you mention in your own message, you are not always aware that Captivate currently still has a big bug with models CPTL which means if you set Variables and Actions put forward in your models and use them at all (even in version 9), then when your developers to use your model to spawn the new CPTX project files they will find the variables and advanced actions are duplicated by the exact number of times where they have been used in the model.  In practice, this creates a huge mess that cannot be repaired.

If you want to see the issue in the action or reproduce it for yourself, here is a post I did on this subject some time ago (there are now three versions of Cp since now):

Problems of duplication in Adobe Captivate Cp7 Cp8 Templates | Infosemantics Pty Ltd

My recommendation in the video is that you set up a CPTX you like your 'model' to work and then just set the READ ONLY file properties so that anyone who tries to use this file should save as to save their changes.  This avoids the above bug.

  • Toolbars were staying is not in the taskbar regardless of locking toolbar or any other "bars," used.

    Hi all.

    I have W7 Home Premium edition. I have two toolbars that point to folders on my C:-one is for game shortcuts, others simply utility/program shortcuts. Two toolbars are in my taskbar. I have a chance of 3 to 7 of them whenever I connect and turn it back on in the process of disappearance, or start. Files and links that are always there, because to add toolbars when I connect, I just have to say new-> toolbar-> then select the two that I have created as they always appear in the list of available items to use for a toolbar. Curiously, they are retained at the bottom of the list. Once I have added to them, they stay there for the duration of my login. I have a draw, although whenever I connected to see whether or not they will be there. Someone please see that! It's VERY embarrassing.

    This happens to me ALL THE TIME! However, not ALL the time, but often enough that it annoys the _ living out of me. I can't find a solution to this either. Could someone please provide some guidance?

    Hi TheOctagon,
     
    I suggest you to lock the taskbar after the toolbar to add and check.
     
    You can also try to pin these exe file of programs to the taskbar and check if this help. So that you can open it quickly and conveniently, rather than look for the program in the start menu.
     
    For more information visit http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Pin-a-program-to-the-taskbar
     
    If still you have the same problem then, I suggest you to check that the problem persists in the new user profile. This problem may occur because of the corrupted user profile.
     
    To create a new profile, you must first create a new user account. When the account is created, a profile will also be created.
    1. open user accounts by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety (or by clicking on user accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking user accounts.
    2. click on manage another account.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    3. click on create a new account.
    4. type the name you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click on create an account.

  • Web form fields were staying is not in order

    Does anyone know why my form fields keep rearranging themselves. For example, I propose "Zone 2" below "field 6" and everything looks like it's working, but when I insert the form on a page, the fields are not in the order I put. " Any advice?

  • Quiz Master slide edit

    Is it possible to change the Quiz Master slides?

    Insert quizzes and get ugly white boxes. Go to the slide of the Master window and or import project background AND still looks like ugly white boxes - the history of the project sits behind....

    How to make quiz slides to look like the rest of the slides?

    In my case, the blades are red brand of the company. I can change the fonts, but cannot remove the ugly black band at the top or the white boxes

    is Captivate 8

    Thank you

    You can perfectly edit master slides for schools of quizzes, they are part

    of the theme. Better save the theme as a custom theme, object styles are

    included as well. Best, do it before you insert slides.

  • Image of parameter alpha master slide forwards to objects on slides

    Hello

    Someone knows this strange phenomenon?

    • on a model of slides, I put an image, not as a backdrop
    • changed this image to about 35% alpha
    • I applied this model of slides to slides in the project
    • on the first slide, I have a text caption, and a drawing object (for the screenshots, an oval) in contrasting colors, both put on display for the rest of the project; nor have a transition
    • When previewing or editing, the original colors of the TC and image are more correct on the first slide
    • the second slide, the TC and image seem to have the same Alpha parameter as the image of the master slide

    It seems that the second slide, the slide image is according to the objects on the slide. And the option "Master drag objects on top" is not enabled.

    If the image is merged into the slide background, everything works as expected. But I wasn't expecting something on the master slide to be pushed on top of what anyone on the normal slides. The two screenshots show the origin slide (where the TC and oval are really present) and slide 4 where they appear to cause the setting "Display for rest of slide '. I hope that the JPEG is clear enough

    Slide1.jpgSlide4.jpg

    Hi Lilybiri

    Here you add objects on slide 1 and making it to display for the rest of the project. By default when the objects are made in the rest of the project then they will order further down on the other slides in the project. So according to this logic, the text caption and the drawn object is indicated under the model picture of slides on the other slides.

    To resolve this problem, you can choose to "Activate" the 'Objects of Place on top' option in the text caption timing accordion and the drawing object.

    Please see the figure below.

    Try this and let me know if it works.

    Thank you

  • Delicate design, positioning and Organisation of objects on Master Slides quiz problems

    Hello

    I just upgraded to 9 Captivate and would switch to suitable designs.  Some problems, however.

    First of all, when I try to modify the positions of certain objects on slides in quick mask mode, the Position of the object on the tab Position have right and left gray.  I, for example, like to move and position of in the MCQ response boxes would design ('Type 1 from here' etc) to the left of the slide to make room for images on the right.  For some reason, I'm not allowed to do any settings on the tab position I try (and I think I tried them all).

    Secondly, the menu item "organize" is grayed out and if I put pictures on the slide, they fall behind the objects already here and cannot be ' brought forward "."  I don't know why the new objects (i.e. images) fall behind the other objects permanently.

    This means that I can't move some existing objects as I would like and I can't put pictures above them either.

    Very clearly, I'm doing something wrong, but the research, as I might, I can't find answers, and I'm starting to think better to return to the inadmissible designs.

    Grateful for any help, anyone can give.

    Richard

    Your question is not quite clear to me, but he can offer you already some explanations.

    Questionnaire slides have very strict rules. All objects incorporated, those are the objects without an individual timeline, are always on top of the stack. You can't have custom objects appears above one of the built-in objects. I found a few exceptions as described in this article:

    Buttons on Question/Score of Captivate 6 slides? -Captivate Blog

    What I said now is not specific to a sensitive project, but to all projects.

    With respect to positioning, see what you mean: you cannot resize the boxes of individual response, nor the overall box on the master slide, but you can on the slides of individual questionnaire. Look at this slide:

    I started by looking at the Advanced setting: by default, it is set to align horizontally, be sure to uncheck this option.

    For answers: select the global zone that has all the answers. You can see I've changed its size and position.

    I hope this can help?

  • 'Objects of master slide on top' is a lie with question slides

    I created a widget when you click it, pop a question slide information. But it appears behind the text of the question. I put the widget on a master slide, since you can't add a widget directly to a question slide. Assign the "Master drag objects On Top. Even with this setting, the text of the question always appears on the widget.

    Anyone know how to have a widget on top a question slide?

    Question of more... and then put them in a request for improvement like the rest of us do.

  • Slide stopping using widgets and master slides

    Hello

    Is there a better way than what we do because we dishes lose time and we put this process in rhythm in CP 5.5 and want to know what we can better in CP7.01

    We want to have our slides to pause in the middle of each slide

    Currently

    -Our navigation buttons are on the master slide. These are widgets custom static at front and rear, because interactive objects cannot be set on master slides
    -If you add a set of objects hidden on each slide to pause

    We have complicated branching because

    -We have glossaries and help

    -branched scenarios

    We must therefore really it works releiably

    Problems

    -our widget does not appear on the branched Viewer

    -We make mistakes using the record of the previous displayed slide variable

    We were concerned with a bar of reading because it
    -to exit assessments

    -allows users to ignore our simulations

    who is Paul

    Your statement '... because the interactive objects can be put slide masters are no longer valid since the COP6: there is only one type of interactive objects that can be used on blades of masters (or timed for the rest of the project) which are the form buttons. I talked much about them:

    http://blog.lilybiri.com/why-i-like-shape-buttons-Captivate-6

    http://blog.lilybiri.com/toggle-shape-buttons

    http://blog.lilybiri.com/want-a-button-on-question-slide-in-Captivate

    And I presented a webinar, info and the link can be found here: http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2012/09/training-lilybiris-favourite-shapes-to-trigger-ad vanced - actions.html

    You can easily replace the static widgets by form buttons, they are much easier to 'style' and very flexible.

    An example: If you want to take a break to each slide, add a button of form suspension (fill transparent and no race) to the master slide. Because there is no possible synchronization for objects on a slide, this break will always happen at the end of the slide, regardless of its duration. You can't time the break! If you have a form with pause button timed for the rest of the project, stopping there will be always at the same absolute time (relative is not possible, thought, I've had seen somewhere a question about a break halfway through the duration of the slide, but can't find it in your text).

    I (almost) never use a bar reading myself. It is only useful for simple linear projects.

  • Master slide background of sizing in projects of nature responsive

    Hello

    New to Captivate 9 and despite hours searching I can't resolve these issues with a responsive project:

    -J' inserted a background image (16:9) for the master slide, but it leaves spaces upstairs and downstairs. What size or proportion should be the background image?

    -L' background image includes a logo which is piled up in the mobile portrait and portrait of tablet - y at - it another way to prevent distortion of logo?

    Appreciate help or the pearls of wisdom.

    Graeme

    For your first question: it depends on the resolution, you chose for the project in primary mode: If this is a ratio of 4:3, make sure you change the image to this ratio. Best practice is to give exactly the size (width and height in pixels) which is necessary for the primary display. You can edit images in Captivate (also cropping).

    Regarding the logo: it would be better to insert separately as an image. Don't forget to set the width to a % and the height to Auto (Position properties), which will keep the fixed width/height ratio. For logos, you could also choose for a fixed size in the views of breakpoint, or give a minimum size to keep visible even in very low browser resolutions.

  • Master Slide templates are not displayed correctly when out of sight of the film

    I have problems with the edit mode mask in captivate. I adjusted correctly the blades to fit the design I want, however when I add a new slide with this layout, buttons and boxes are cast in all directions. Thus, many of the items I'd remove the quiz pages cannot be deleted and when you try to change the text for the default value is correct, must respond to questions box... etc I'm not able to change this text.

    Master quiz slides are very special, do not try to remove all the objects because they have all of the features. You can edit, move things and creating these masters slides question slides you will be able to hide some as rear buttons (see Preferences Quiz), claire.

    The legends of feedback (or forms, if you choose for them to CP8.0.1): change the text in Quiz preferences, default labels, not in the slides of masters.

    As for your other problem, I never had this problem at all. My workflow is first edit the object Styles in the Style of the object manager, and then edit the master slides, starting by the slide master main where appropriate. Do NOT change the blank slide (you can create a duplicate / change this one) If you ever want to insert slides of simulation software. Maybe your idea of slide masters is not exactly what it is in Captivate? Themes are objects, master slides and skin styles and you have version 8 also has the theme color palette that can be modified or customized.

    Tell what version you use is essential for a correct answer. And if you're on CP8, please also indicate if you are talking about a normal or sensitive project.

  • Registration of hidden by Master Slide image slide

    Hello

    I use 7 Captivate.

    I put a template of slides at the beginning of my project. I wanted to add a simulation and did by inserting a blade of the record. Once completed, however, recording is hidden by the image of the slide. I can't find a way to move the image of the slide to the rear or bring the record forward.

    I can't remove the image of the master slide now as it would have an impact on the rest of the project.

    I tried a new recording software simulation project and copy the slides in the original, but the same thing happened.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Sue

    Why not to duplicate the Virgin child master page, you can give it another name and have the image on this page. Then apply it to all the slides except the simulation slides that use the original empty slide where hide you objects in the master slide. Since it is a common property, you can select all the slides and apply child slides model duplicate. I hope this makes sense?

  • Hide the smart shape on master slide button

    Hi all

    Looks like I have another issue of nag... I have a project (Captivate 6) that contains the FOOTER navigation that I used smart shape buttons... the problem is, I have a few slides with popups... and buttons are still ALIVE in the pop-up window. And because I can't quote a button on smart shape on a master slide, I don't know how to identify it with a tip Action...

    I know that I can go the L-O-O-O-O-O-N-G way, using a different Master and duplicate the navigation on the slide that will give me the ability to appoint the Smart form buttons... I can't HIDE/SHOW them... but the project has 4-8 pop-up windows that would be a large number of buttons...

    So, is there a way to hide/show buttons created on a model of slides?

    Thank you!

    Not possible: objects on master slides do not receive an identification, which means they cannot be used in a fast action (one of my many requests of feature for quite some versions).

    In such a case of use I would not place the buttons on form on the model of slides, but on the first slide and their time for the rest of the project, always on top (if it can be done here?). In this case, they will have a unique ID for the whole project. However, there are a few possible problems for buttons in form with a suspension point. When you use a suspension point for a button shape on the master slide, the break will always happen at the end of each slide, regardless of its duration. This is not the case for form buttons timed for the rest of the project.

  • Exit button doesn't work is not on the Master Slide

    I have an exit with the attached exit action button on my e-learning project in model of slides, poster so all on all other content model of slides. This, in turn, displays the button exit on any slide I want to add to my project. Is there any reason the exit action attached to this button may not work? Whenever I am in my project to examine, the button never closes the project. It is just click, but does nothing. Do I need to have the action of the button available on the slides to master CONTENT rather than the main model of slides?

    ExitButton.png

    @wc @ fmiosa as moderator, I have to ask you to NOT post answers that are wrong or mislead other users of Captivate. I considered that the deletion of your response, but you are going to insult me (new) if I do. When you say "Buttons do not work when, on the model of slides", your response seems to say that you can insert buttons on a master slide, but they never work? This is not good at all: If you can insert a button on a master slide must be a button of form because the other buttons cannot be inserted on a master slide at all. Apparently you missed the appearance of form buttons, almost 4 years ago. They are interactive objects only you can use on slides of masters, you can insert on the first slide and the time for the rest of the project, you can use them on the question slides and slides of score. If you always use the Captivate 5.5 or before, which mentions at least in your response, adding that this could change in future versions
