Opening PPT animation slide in Captivate 6 seems weird

• 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.

• 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

  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.

• Missing animation on 8 Captivate files

  When you try to insert a slide of Animation on Captivate 8, I can see the SWF Animation files (arrows, etc.), but they do not contain any GIFs (see screenshot below). Could be an installation problem? If so, should which file I try to reinstall? I managed to install Active files of e-Learning include the characters and widgets.

  The thoughts and suggestions are welcome; Thanks in advance.

  

  I don't know why the Animation slides are always there, never used even in previous versions. You can insert an Animation (under the big button media) or a HTML5 Animation. Animations included in the gallery are sovereign funds, which means that they will be functional for SWF-output. There have never been animated GIF included, but they can be inserted. If you create them in Photoshop (like me) or similar, be careful not to use images with a duration of 0 seconds. The alternative are animations of HTML5, which can be created in edge animate or other applications.

• The animation slides ignore content in flash published

  Dear assistants and experts,
  
  I may be new to Captivate, but have worked with all his predecessors...
  My simple demonstration consists of 6 slides:
  a text slide;
  a slide of animation built from an AVI (123 sec);
  a text slide;
  a slide of animation built from an AVI (23 sec).
  a text slide;
  a slide of animation built from an AVI (165 s)
  
  When the preview of all content is indicated. Then I publish (HTML export). The flash seen ignores the end of all the slides in the animation: from the beginning that 107 seconds are displayed, from the second 10 seconds, are displayed in the third only 110 seconds.
  
  To be more precise on the previw: this is the reading on the timeline where everything is played - not 'play this Slide' button in the Preview button - that creates a temporary file to flash.
  
  With uncompressed Flash, it's the same problem.
  
  It was not here?

  I have now found the source of my problem:

  There is a difference if I insert via
  (1) insert > slide > animation Slide - or
  (2) insert > Slide white; and then in the blank slide: Insert > Animation

  Case 2, I get the "New Animation" dialog box where I can configure options. In case 1, that this dialog box does not display upward and with properties to slide the desired option not adjustable.

  The option to cure the problem is "synchronize with the project.
  The help text for this option "select this option to synchronize the speed at which the animation file plays with the speed of timeline. (If you find that the animation file is not playing smoothly, test with this option selected and cleared to see which setting gives you better results) ». has not triggered my brain first, because during playback (any avi) animation in the timeline, it is displayed properly with or without this option.

  So: If the final flash file ignores the end of imported animations (e.g. avi) and early moves to the next slide:

  -Import the animation in a blank slide (do not import via Insert > Slide > animated slides)
  -Set the option "Synchronize with the project" in the dialog box "new Animation.

• Unable to open ppt files

  I have trouble to open .ppt files.

  When I try to open the file, a pop-up window. The header of the window is: "smart Oracle hyperion for office, edition of fusion". In the window reads: "Presentation.SlideShowWindow: invalid query." Automation rights are not granted. ». The result is that I am not able to open these files in windows Explorer. There is no problem to open from inside MS office powerpoint files (with file/open, ect).

  The strange thing is that these files are not seeking use of smartview feature.

  
  MS office is MS office professional plus 2010 version 14.0.6029.1000, the OS is Windows 7, smartview version is 11.1.2.2.301.

  Can you help me solve the problem? Thank you

• 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.

• Gif animated in the Captivate movie?

  I'm trying to insert a gif animated in a Captivate movie, but when I do, the gif anime not - it shows just the first image. Y at - there a trick to getting these animated gifs to actually play in the Captivate movie, without having to do a "recreate gross" the GIF in Flash? I have looked around a framework within the app to this address, but could not find, and according to my research of archives, no one else has asked this question.
  
  Thanks in advance!
  Maureen

  Maureen,

  Do not forget that you insert the gif as an Animation and not as an image file.

  On the Insert menu, select the Animation.
  Navigate to your desired animated gif
  Press OK

  Captivate will convert the animated gif in a SWF for you so that it will play.

  Hope that helps.

• Captivate 9 timeline weird behavior - multiple items on the same line

  I'm a 7 Captivate program migrate 9 Captivate.

  I opened 9 Captivate

  I opened the version 7 of Captivate

  Everything worked perfectly.

  All of a sudden the timeline behaves badly.

  Now when I try to change the stacking order, several objects are appearing on the same line. Some lines are empty.

  Has anyone seen this? I've included a screenshot.

  Articles 1, 2, 3 multiple items on the same line

  Point 4, lines are empty.

  Can someone provide advice?

  

  Thanks Lieve. I tried everything, except the reset of the workspace (don't think this!). The project was corrupt finally decided (he was not past in other projects).

  I ended up creating a new project and copied into the new project slides. It worked fine after that.

• 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.

• Adding Animation Slide to the Simulation software

  Captivate 9

  Check-in: Simulation software

  Mode of delivery: MP4

  Hi all

  I wonder if anyone can help/test of validation of my plan here.

  I created software Simulations, saving a long process of analytic S/W tool.

  I need a simulation of software to add captions, highlight boxes etc.

  The software has some nice on the graphic animations when you drill down on the data. A bit like a progress bar.

  You can see a screenshot of the effect here: Craig Clarke - sample Analytics

  This animation effect is not picked up when the 'software Simulation' recording in captivate.

  So the first question. Do I have reason to think that you can't pick this up when recording a Simulation software, even changing the settings?

  And second question, if the above is correct, is my best method to insert slides CPVC in my Simulation software, wherever this animation is displayed?

  Thank you very much

  Craig

  You must save these animations using the video capture. So in Captivate, slide and choose "vidéo Demo" to record a video of full-motion animations.

  See you soon... Rick

• 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. Found some old posts on this topic, but the proposed solutions do not seem to work with the current version of Captivate.

  Yes, cpInfoCurrentSlide.
