Hello,
I am working on a project with captivate 22019 11.0.1.266.
I want my course not to be scalable.
No matter wether I am turning on the export setting “scalable HTML content” or not my export is scalable in MS Edge, Chrome, Firefox etc.
Additionally when I decrease the size of the window via pulling the corner of the window with my cursor also the export becomes smaller. When I click full screen in the top right corner afterwards the browser window becomes larger but the export stays as small as before…
How to fix this?
Thanks for any advice!
Moritz
Yes, that makes sense. You must be referring to widgets like ones that Rod released through Infosemantics. That makes sense to me.
I understand the logic behind it. I just didn’t expect Adobe Captivate to employ that same logic. My bad.
You didn’t expect Captivate to be logical? Now you have me smiling… sometimes it is very logical.
The key-word here is sometimes. To me it would have been logical to include all widgets in the HTML tracker, especially with the death of Flash, but as you pointed out last week, it isn’t. To me, it would have been logical to include Adobe Typekit support in the version after Adobe Typekit was released to Adobe Captivate users, alas, it took several years to accomplish. Logical is subjective, clearly.
Terminology confusion: Learning Interactions are based on SWF widgets but compatible with HTML5 output. The older widgets by Captivate will be mentioned in the HTML tracker, but some external widgets (there were a lot of them in SWF times) not. It looks like Captivate can indicate objects which are included in their application, but not always external ones.
Is it possible your project is set up as a responsive project?
@Michael, the option ‘Scalable HTML’ is not available when publishing a responsive project.
I see, Good to know.
It is logical, since responsive means already rescaling automatically either controlled by the setup of the Fluid Boxes, or by the layout of the different Breakpoints. That allows it also to have different layouts in Portrait and Landscape mode, whereas Scalable HTML5 output always is in landscape mode.
You are not using the most recent supported version which is 11.5.5.553.
What do you really mean by scalable? If you check that option when publishing, the course will take up the available space in the browser window. If not it will have a fixed resolution. You can see the difference in some of my blog posts where I put a link to a scalable version and embed a non-scalable one in an iFrame. Here is an example:
