Problems of importation of slides / Captivate 3

I have a series of 6 related Captivate projects, as well as one I use as a template. Given that certain content shared, I need to be able to copy slides from one project to the other, but I have serious problems with import. When I try to import slides from one project to another, usually what happens is the process is running (slowly) and then I get an additional blank slide (no matter how I tried to import). Or nothing at all.

I have tried everything I can think of-importation of slides only (no object), import to and to leave only for very small projects, excluding the slides in the issue of import, import of small series of slides - contiguous and do not clear the cache, my disk cleanup, restart...

I'm puzzled. If something is watered? Any ideas I can try? I have in the past had no trouble w/import, even within this set of files...

I am using Captivate 3 & XP.

Thanks in advance.

I tried a suggestion from Rick (Captiv8r) in response to another position, and so far, it seems to have been a miracle cure for this and a few other headaches. The solution is to delete or rename this file: captivate_v30.dat

Here is the link to the other post and the solution:

  • Images - facing a problem with the alignment of captivate

    Hello world

    I am using captivate to create e-learning courses for my client. The course was in PPT and slides have been imported into captivate. The process was smooth until the customer asked me to change the size of the canvas. The course includes images as well as on the slides.

    The problem comes here

    1. I can chamge the size of the canvas of 1024 * 768 and 1280 * 800 in the same file? If so, how?

    2. I tried another way of doing this thing. I created the canvas with 1280 * 800 itself. Then, I went back to the old captivate file and copied all the slides and paste it into the new file. But the blades with images have problem (eg. alignment issues produced.). Is it possible to modify these images here himself in captivate so that I can move with arrow keys and mouse to solve the problems of alignment?

    Thank you and best regards

    Please, this is a forum for users and expect to get an answer right away? Myself and other users to be able to spend more than one hour a day, trying to answer questions, but we do that in addition to our normal work and all this for free.

    You can resize a project with changes, the project of the scale. You have the choice of high end everything, which will always lead to a loss of quality. Best result is given when you can keep the aspect ratio, but this isn't the case for you, since you spend report 4/3 16/10 rather unusual.

    Problem is, imported, Powerpoint slides are converted into film slides. This means that you don't have the items separately in Captivate and will not be able to reallocate the as you request your second question.

    Even resizing in Powerpoint will give you a lot of headaches, because of this change the aspect ratio. And that would be the way to go, if you use Captivate as a converter for PPT, that is not the best use of a creative tool at all. A plug-in for PPT is much better suited for this cause (Adobe Presenter, Adobe articulate, iSpring).

  • I want to change the text in Captivate after import PowerPoint slides

    Hello

    Background: I import slides from a .pptx file. Once the slide is created inside Captivate, I want to change the text in the slide, but I can't. It became part of the background. So, I'm left with two options: 1) open the .pptx file, change the text, and then re-import the slide 2) manually create everything on the slide inside Captivate. This means a lot of work. I was hoping that Captivate 7 would solve this, but what seemed possible could address - high fidelity - is not available for mac. I'm sure that others have this problem too.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    Yes, I also never create presentations in PPT, but when my clients want an e-Learning course developed, they almost always send me a PPT - UGH. I'll just recreate each slide manually, because I have to have Captivate to all its other powerful tools. Thanks for your response!

  • 6 problem in captivity, not in Captivate 5

    I recently bought 6 Captivate.  I was a very active user of 5 in captivity and don't have this problem in Captivate 5.

    When import PowerPoint slides in Captivate 6 to develop a presentation, him flickers of SWF file published between slides.  It's very distracting, and I imagine that would cause headaches students.  I don't have this problem with powerpoint 'native' Captivate 6 called "Themes", but I'm building a large number of presentations in PowerPoint, so I prefer to bring my slide in Captivate, like I did in version 5.

    I had this problem when I converted my CPTX version 5 to 6 Captivate file and also when I started with 6 Captivate and shot directly into the PowerPoint in.

    It doesn't matter if I use Flash 10 or 11 when I publish.  The "High Fidelity" checkbox is not also make a difference.

    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    This Patch corrects the problem.  I just checked on the original PowerPoint that I submitted this question.  Thanks for all your help!

  • Problems with boxes and slide do not pause.

    Hello

    I continue to struggle with trying to keep the slides paused while the user interacts with buttons or areas to click on my pages. I tried to use the click box hidden out of the Tower, but it does not work for me.

    I would be eternally grateful if someone could take a look at this slide and let me know that I can get this to work. It's something I will do again and again (in different ways), so I really need to figure this out once and for all.

    Someone is willing to work with me on this? Even if it is offline, I am pleased to publish the results as soon as we have them working.

    Here's the problem:

    In the slide, the user has several options to choose from. They are to click on the options they think are correct. I placed boxes click on each option with attached actions. However, it seems that the March slide happily on his way with every click, so that finally the click boxes are no longer available to click. What can I do to stop this?

    Captivate 4 file attached.

    Hello

    I downloaded the file and it looks into Captivate.

    What seems to be the case, it's that when you click, the break is released. Therefore, a way to "reset" from the reading head.

    Why not try to create a tip Action that performs projection, hiding and resetting the read head?

    It is relatively simple. You use a Standard of the Show Action. Standard action of hide and seek. Then follow in the end with a reset of the read head. Normally, I use a transfer action. I assignrdcmndGotoFrameAndResume the value of rdiinfoCurrentFrame - 5 (to save the 5 frames).

  • Problem with an animation slide / move

    Version: CP 4

    Output: .exe

    ACE: 2

    Hello, dudes. I m with some new issues here and looking for help I m.

    Recently, I find a drag and drop animation that I use in my classes of software. I really Don t remember the source of the file, but I have the .fla and .swf here with me. It was offered for free, before any comment.

    Now, the question: if I normally play the animation, it run smoothly. I can use the mouse to drag the first point, and if I release it on another point, he put it back. Otherwise, the first point stay where I release the mouse button.

    But, when I put it in Captivate, stop the animation to work, I mean, when I take the first point and put directly on the second point, it don´s stay fixed.

    (1) someone understand what I write (I think I maculate the English language in this post)

    (2) if someone understand, I need a little help to put this work.

    Most of the Drag and drops done to _root using Flash make reference to individual instances on the stage. Given that the component needs to do a hit test to see if your slide object strikes the target object it will probably do something like this:

    if(_root.draggedobject.hitTest(_root.target)){
    trace(" Yeah good job");
    }

    When you import this in Captivate then _root is no longer the _root of the Flash file, but rather the _root of the Captivate file, which does not work.

    Try to replace all occurrences of _root with _parent.

  • Impossible to import audio in Captivate 3.0

    We created using Adobe Audition WAV files. When we try to use import > Audio feature, we get the following error:
    Impossible to decode and import the selected WAV/MP3 file.
    I am able to listen to the file through Windows media player and recorder of Windows sounds with no problems, I can not get to import into my Captivate project.

    any ideas on what we can do?

    We tried, but got an error in the tape recorder, saying: he could not convert the file. He would play very well, but for some reason any could not change the format. In any case, we got this problem by exporting out of hearing as MP3 audio files and these files imported into our Captivate project without any problems, so we were able to move. Thanks for responding.

  • Problems to import my Drone Elements first Bebop MP4 files.

    I have problems to import my Drone Elements first Bebop MP4 files. Original file seems crisp and beautiful, but after importation of Premiere Elements, all sorts of 'ghosts', glitter details etc. appears. Using PC and import (self) normally. Please help, because the result is not at all satisfactory. Help, please.

    First 13 elements should give you excellent results with STROKE in 1920 x 1080 video.

    What version of Premiere Elements do you use?

    I see that the Bebop shoots in 1920 x 1080. What is the format of the video?

    In most cases, Premiere Elements will automatically set your project according to the specifications of your video - but sometimes this does not happen with MOV files. Go to the Edit menu and note the settings of the project. The program provides up to 1920 x 1080 at 30 fps?

    Have you ensured that you have the latest version of Quicktime, by the requirements of the program?
