Hi everyone..i need help to publish linked projects in captivate 2019. To keep projects smaller i have opted to design separate sessions and then link the projects from the last slide and create a continued flow. Your help would be appreciated as this is a multi- branching project.

TIA , R

I have multiple software simulations and need them either in one project or via a seemless link.  Copy and pasting slides into one project is tedious. I cannot find anyone to explain what is best and how to. Did you sort out your problem?

Why is the copy/paste project a problem? It means:

  • Open both projects.
  • Select the Filmstrip of one of the projects.
  • Use CTRL-A to select all the slides in the filmstrip
  • Use CTRL-C to copy them to the clipboard
  • Switch to the other project
  • Use CTRL-V to paste the slides.

That will be really seamless. If you use a link to the URL of the second project, you have to know that this will not be allowed in a LMS due to the SCORM rules. For a LMS you need to set up the links in the LSM, not in Captivate.

Hello,
I, too, am trying to link one project to another. Specifically, I want to link from the main course to a Glossary interaction and then allow the learner to go back to the main course where they left off. Has anyone done anything like that? Or is there a way to do this within the same project?
Thank you!

Safest way is to upload the projects to a webserver, and use the ‘Open URL’ command to point to the address of the second published project.

that will mean it doesn’t open automatically but needs to be executed manually to open the linked project right ?

When publishing to HTML AutoPlay will be disabled indeed, as for all projects.

A very important detail is missing in your question: are you uploading the courses to a LMS or not?
