Export images from library

Since upgrading to the new release when I batch export my images from captivate to a folder, the file extension is missing so I can not run a batch conversion in PhotoShop. Any idea of how to get the file extensions back?

Hello! What was the resolution to this question? I have the same question but didn’t see the final answer.

Do you mean ‘solution’?  Or are you indeed talking about the resolution of the images?

Personally I never lose the extension of the images when exporting from a Captivate library. As you can see in the thread, the original person asking this question never answered my questions.

There was no final answer or resolution. It appears that you can not export the images that Captivate takes as screenshots. It used to save them as bitmaps and you could export them from the library in Captivate.

Why ‘resolution’? I am not a native English speaker but resolution to me is linked to ppi and size in pixels.

I just double-checked in version 11.5.1.499 and was able to export a Backgroundx.bmp image without any issues. I prefer to export them as PNG files, but if you prefer bmp, not problem. Whty do you  say that it is not possible?

Solution and resolution to a problem are the same thing in English. Our words can be so confusing! When I saw which version you are  using I updated mine. It turns out it was a bug in version 11.5.043. Once I updated it works again. I am curious though how you export them directly to a .png file.

Did look up resolution in the Oxford dictionary and it is not mentioned as a synonym to solution.

Just change the file type when you export, you can do that with any item exported from the Library.

Screenshots on a PC. Captivate normally takes them as bitmaps and then I export and convert to png. Ever since I upgraded I can not export screenshots.

You mean backgrounds from a software simulation?
