In this video which is a follow up to my previous one on “How to make a reflection effect” I respond to a comment by a fellow Instructional designer (thanks Le Dirlo… ) on how to add additional effects to an object in Adobe Captivate 2019



If you use multiple effects on the same objects, and/or have edited an effect a lot it is a good idea to save the combination as one custom effect. This is even compulsory if you want to use the effect in an advanced action. Lot of users also ignore that time-based effects are not the only way to use effects in Captivate, but you can have an effect triggered by an interactive object or in an advanced/shared action.
Effects are sensible to pausing, as well by a Pause command as by a pausing point. That is at the origin of many questions on social medio. Confusion perhaps because animations are not affected by pausing.
