Simulate a keyboard in Captivate 5

I am eager to find a way to simulate a keyboard alarm in Captivate 5.  I have the image there, but what I want is for the user using the keys on the keyboard to enter a PIN and have Captivate branch depending on whether or not they are entered into the right AXIS.

So it would be necessary to register (variables?) somehow pressed buttons and branch then after you press the Enter key on the keyboard.

I glanced quickly at a few options but do not seem to be getting anywhere - I had thought that something to do with clickboxes and advanced actions?

Thanks in advance for any help (even if it's just to tell me that it cannot make Captivate).

Hello

Has published an example with explanations in an article. You can find the link in this blog post:

    I have also disabled all the audio options (typing sounds and camera) but get the same result every time.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    As suspects, there is a conflict in the Adobe 64-bit dll.  Not all the components on a system Win 64 64-bit native, so it seems that something in my system does not cooperate with the 64-bit version.  It's the support, since the freshly installed (first time) 32-bit version works like a charm.

    I'd be curious to know how many people out there running 64-bit without these issues and if so, what material they are on.  But at least I'm functional - for now.

    Thanks to everyone who gave suggestions.

  • Optimizing Labview VI

    Hello

    I want to optimize this code (HMI Pop Up Alpha KB).

    This is a sample VI, but it is not very optimized.

    This VI simulates a keyboard, alphanumeric, intended to be used on a touchscreen PC. The input control can be set to standard or display password.

    PS: I do not think I do more to optimize it.

    Thank you

    Remove the timeout.  Place the code that must run before the loop of data entry (ready for this?...) front (i.e. outside and to the left of) the data entry loop.  Error line allows to connect them in series and bring the error line in the data entry loop.

    Error line is your friend: use it!  Each Subvi should have error in and error on wired devices to the connectors at the bottom right and bottom left.  Error lines should run through your code, and it should be used.

    HMI Pop Up Alpha Ko, you have the way PDF current open cable VI VI reference.  The server VI 'This VI' reference made, in my view, the same thing.

    Don't use no local Variables.  In Pop Up Alpha HMI, replace the Tunnel carrying the text in the While loop with a shift register and have the indicator text attached to it.  It will then auto-update, eliminating the need for local Variables (bad).  Note that you need to wire up the thread of the text through the structure of the event, as well, so you can update from the KB Driver when necessary.

  • The 8 Captivate PlayBar controls can cause keyboard shortcuts?

    I have a swf file created in Captivate 8. Bar reading a back and forward buttons, the progress bar and the table of contents. There is no interactivity in the slides with the exception of a few places with animated buttons. My client want users to be able to scroll the slides using the keyboard - space or entry or right/left arrow keys or page up/page down. I know I can get there using using the buttons with the keyboard shortcuts on each slide, but I can affect playback rear and front buttons bar keyboard shortcuts?

    -Stuart

    If you use the custom navigation buttons, you can add shortcut keys, right and left the work arrow keys very well.

    I prefer using the form (you can do as invisible as the click boxes) because you can put them on the first slide and the time for the rest of the project, or put them on master slides. That will save time, do not have to copy and paste another interactive object for each slide.

  • Captivate 5-accessibility-how can I do questions Quiz accessible via the keyboard instead of the mouse

    Hello.

    I am trying to build an Accessible e-Learning module using Captivate 5.

    Can I use < Tab > and < enter > to navigate through the slides view and Table of contents.  However, I can't so far using just the keyboard to access and respond to questions of Quiz, which is true/false, Multiple choice questions.

    The user must be able to select the answer and click on send, using only the keyboard.

    How can I do in Captivate 5?

    CB.

    I tested it on a slide in question choice multiple in Cp5 and 5.5.  I tried only preview/5 slides so it's maybe different after being published and displayed in the browser.

    The first was a multiple-choice questionnaire.  When I tab it goes in the title of the question down through each of the responses, then moves to the Clear/send button I on the slide.  Using the SPACEBAR to substitute for a click seemed to work.

  • Captivate 4 - use the mouse and the keyboard at the same time.

    Hello, good people.

    There is a way, in the C4, to use the mouse and the keyboard at the same time?

    An example, in the simulation software:

    "Hold down the SHIFT key and click with the mouse in the other object to select too..." »

    Your question is very clear to me, because I've been struggling with these problems not long there. You want to be the simulation as real as possible. But try to imagine how the user will see this simulation. You can ask him to hold the SHIFT key and select the last item in the range to select, but what makes Captivate advance to the next slide (where all the items are selected), it's really the 'click' himself. So in this case I should not worry the SHIFT but just create a click on this last point. And then you hope it will be in fact the SHIFT key, which will be the case for most users, and perhaps a few exceptions don't will be not pressed the SHIFT key and continue anyway. I hope you understand a bit what I just tried to explain. Is it really important for learning effect that you check the CHANGE itself?

  • The video player integrated into Captivate 8 is not accessible to keyboard.

    The Play, Pause, buttons etc. don't seem to be able to be accessed from the keyboard.  Is there a work around?

    If you use multiple video synchronized slides regular play, pause, fast forward and so forth will control the video. If you create your own buttons to control these options you can also assign keyboard shortcuts for these buttons.

  • Keyboard shortcuts work in preview, but not in. SWF (Captivate 5)

    I'm working on a project where the keyboard shortcuts are the * main * how users will move on to the screen.  This is because keyboard shortcuts are the main means of

    tasks in the software, I am a teacher.

    Most of my keyboard shortcuts use a clickbox invisble on the screen.  It worked fine when I preview slides.  Great!  I create about 5,000 of them (OK, I've created about 30).  I've published the project. SWF.  Uh-oh.  The hotkeys DON'T WORK, you hear a beep of Windows instead.  Lesson stuck with no way to move forward.

    Here is some info that might help based on what I could find in the previous questions on the shortcuts:

    -Happens in IE and Firefox

    -No, there are not many clickboxes using the same hotkey on the same blade

    Thanks for any help - I am facing a deadline and shortcuts correct keyboard for various actions of teaching is absolutely fundamental for my lesson!

    Your problem is most likely related to the specific shortcuts that you try to use.   Some shortcuts are reserved by the web browser for its own use, and there is very little you can do close to these shortcuts away from him.  The browser always sees before strikes anything running in the browser.  So if he already has an action reserved for this combination, it will use whatever it is you wanted to do.

    This question has been a rude awakening for a lot of people trying to create software simulations for browser-based delivery.

    So what keys you are trying to use?

  • How to record the keyboard shortcuts in Windows

    I'm capturing function for a computer course keys by creating a simulation and assessment. I can't simulate arrow keys and the keys like F5. It does not work when I try using IE but seems to work in Firefox. Haven't tried Chrome.

    Advice please? Thanks in advance!

    Trying to simulate the use of keyboard shortcuts, including function keys, is almost always an exercise in futility.  Your end user's web browser gets dibs on the F keys as well as any other key combination that sometimes you want to reserve for its own use.  No matter what you do, you cannot override it with what you do in the Captivate content.

  • How save/simulate an arrow key?

    Hello

    I need to register the software simulation using:

    -arrow keys (for the input field/menu selection).

    -Return the key (for the validation of choice).

    Capture screen is, of course, is not a problem, as I do it manually.

    What I did find is: how to simulate a button arrow.

    IE: tell the user of the lesson to "press the arrow key to enter the menu of xxxxx." and do it...

    I tried to use the field text, with empty response and with arrow key down as validation key, but it does not work...

    Thank you.

    Hello

    It helps please, if you tell us what version of Captivate you use.

    For more interactive objects (click boxes, buttons, text input boxes), the user can get a "successful action" by clicking (for Click box, touch or the Send button to a text entry area) OR by using a keyboard shortcut. By assigning this shortcut key (e.g. Enter), you allow the user to use this key. CP5, you'll find it in the property Panel, area Action. For CP4 find you this shortcut key in the p.e. Button, first tab properties dialog box.

  • keyboard events in the training record

    Hi all

    How is it possible to record the events of keyboard such as Ctrl + Z for undo and Shift + click to select multiple items in the training mode.

    Users must do this action countinue slides.

    that you enjoy.

    Hello

    If you save in training mode, then by default that Captivate should include on boxes in your slides. You can assign keyboard shortcuts to those click boxes by performing the following steps:

    1 double-click on one of your click boxes.

    2. in the section click on area of the dialog box click on the Select keys... button.

    3. Select join a shortcut

    4. to make a cancellation select Ctrl and then in the menu of the letter

    Note: To get to the learner to shift + click, select the UPDATE option

    5. click OK to close the shortcut dialog box.

    To simulate a cancellation, you must then create a branch to a slide where the initial action was performed. Here, you can use options of success we go to the previous slide or move to the slide and then specify the number of the slide.

    In regard to simulating it to select multiple items, yet once would perform you similar steps. Depends on how your project has been set up you must either define the action of success we continue or go to the next slide.

    The way I tend to work, I got each element I want to select on separate slides and add a click with the attached UPDATE keyboard shortcut box. When the learner clicks on the first click box I then move to the next slide and so on. Of course, this does not account for to the learner to choose items randomly. To accomplish this, you will need to set up a fairly complex branching.

  • Is it possible to get the keyboard overlay alphanumeric numlock in W530?

    Hi all

    Last week, I got my new ThinkPad W530 as a replacement for my W500 which has replaced my R60 which replaced my R51. One of the first things I noticed was the changes to the keyboard. I like the feel of the keys, but I don't like the layout, I think that the previous one has been perfect :/

    Anyway, I'm not here to bash. I give you the new layout a chance, and maybe I'll get used to and do not want to come back in a few months, we'll see. But before I can do, it is something that I absolutely need. I use software that needs a numeric keypad and the new keyboard W530 doesn't seem to have the overlay of the keypad that older models had.

    Is there anyway to get this or simulating his behavior? No matter what, I don't care if it's a combination of hidden Fn who will activate him, a third to simulate software, a fan-made keyboard driver or some fiddling with options of Windows. But of course there MUST be a way, easy or difficult, be they the keyboard works as if she had the number lock and a keypad digital, right? I don't think I'm the only one who need this feature...

    I have the strange feeling that you can write your own Autohotkey script that toggles an overlay simulated with a double click of the right Ctrl key.

    EDIT: And here is:

    ~ RControl:
    <>"" ~ RControl "or A_TimeSincePriorHotkey > 200)"
    {
    KeyWait, RControl
    return
    }
    t : = ! t

    #If t
    {
    u::4
    i::5
    o::6
    j::1
    k::2
    l::3
    m::0
    /::+
    ;::-
    p: : *
    0 :: /
