A short overview comparing different flow/wrap options in fluid boxes
One of the main challenges I faced when starting out with Cp was adjusting my thinking regarding how elements were placed around the canvas. Cp is different from any application I had used in the past primarily due to the absence of the typical layout controls I was used to. At first Cp felt slightly restrictive but now that I appreciate why the layout limitations are in place (requirements of responsive design), I can see why Adobe have set things up the way they have and it is now far easier for me to get different elements to move around the screen in a (fairly) predictable manner.
Here is a quick video where I go over the main fluid box options you are likely to want to get a grasp of when starting out, specifically how elements move around under different flow/wrap combinations.

Thanks for posting this video, Gareth. All help for the typical workflows of Fluid Boxes is welcome.
Something I miss in the beginning is the specification that what you showed needs to start with a slide that is based on the Blank Master slide. All other content master slides in the Themes packed with Captivate do have fluid boxes set up in the Master slides. Most articles about fluid oxes seem to ignore that. I posted some articles about fluid boxes on master slides, because I always start each project by setting up a theme, which includes setting up Fluid boxes on master slides for a responsive project that will use that work flow.
