People often ask me how I got such a clean cutout of an image in Adobe Captivate 5. The answer is that it’s pretty easy with eLearning Suite 2, because Photoshop CS5 and Adobe Captivate 5 work together to make for a simple solution to complex problems like that one. Sure, it’s easy to get a clean selection when all the background pixels are the same color, but what do you do when you need to clip a foreground object or figure and the subject and the background are far more complex? In the video below I demonstrate how to use the tools in Adobe eLearning Suite to refine a selection in Photoshop, remove the background, save it as a transparent background image, and then import the clean image into Adobe Captivate. Just to tie things up with a ribbon, I then show you how to optimize the alpha layered image to display well in your finished Captivate project and how to adjust the display timing of the slide.
