I use web content a fair bit in my projects. It’s either a HTML5 file or an Adobe Animate interaction saved as an OAM file. Sometimes though I have an issue in the fact that the web object ignores the layering within the timeline. It seems to be playing “Direct to Screen”.

The reason for this is because it seems the default is that the web object is placed inside an iFrame. It’s possible to edit the rendered HTML file and fix that but that’s not practical. You’d have to reedit the HTML 5 every time you published.

This video will show you a neat hidden feature on how you can edit the Adobe Captivate configuration file that will allow you to layer web objects.
