Understanding the Table of Contents Feature
November 5, 2016
I’ve been an eLearning designer and developer since 2005, specializing in the creation of interactive and engaging learning experiences. In 2015, I launched my own eLearning design business and began producing Adobe Captivate video tutorials on my YouTube channel, CaptivateTeacher, to support clients and fellow developers. This content not only helped me grow my business globally—it also introduced me to a wider community of aspiring Captivate users who now turn to me for training and mentorship. Today, I provide both online and onsite Adobe Captivate training, empowering others to build effective eLearning with confidence. I’m proud to be part of the Adobe eLearning Community, sharing knowledge, collaborating with other developers, and contributing to the growth of this platform.

In this video I’ll show you how you can use the in-built table of contents feature.

Hi Paul! I loved your video, the speed, the explanations for each feature, etc… If you don’t mind I would like your opinion on an idea. I was using the AGGR file which creates a table of content for swf files but several of my users can’t see the videos in Chrome so my supervisor has asked me to publish them as an mp4 file which also allows users to control making it full screen. The only problem with that is they lose the AGGR. So I was thinking maybe I can use the TOC function that you talked about and make each slide with a link to the mp4 video. It is not real clean but at least they would get a toc rather than me having to list several links down a portal page. What are your thoughts on this solution? Do you have any other suggestions? My email address is michelle.craven@tridenttech.edu. thanks in advance for any help you can provide. -Michelle

Yes, there is. On the slide properties panel, under the actions tab, you have an “On Enter” action where you can select “Hide TOC” from the list of options. Depending on what’s happening on your slide you may wish to uncheck the “Continue Playing the Project” option. You can save time by selecting multiple slides of the same type and applying this change to many slides at once. If you already have advanced actions on the “On Enter” action of your slides, you can simply incorporate this action into your advanced action. Hope that helps.

Very useful video, Paul. Is there a way to make the table of contents disappear once you have clicked on a link within it?

Thanks,

Steve
