Animations can elevate your eLearning content—like easing- and make the difference between smooth storytelling and distracting motion.

🎥 Ease In: Think of a car starting to move—it accelerates gradually. This creates a smooth entry for objects in your Captivate project, grabbing attention gently.

🎞️ Ease Out: Now imagine the same car slowing to a stop. This deceleration ensures that elements leave the screen without jarring the learner.

Adobe Captivate makes it simple to apply these effects, giving you control over the pacing of your object animations. Whether you’re animating text, images, or interactive elements, understanding when to apply Ease In (to introduce) and Ease Out (to conclude) ensures a professional finish.

📈 Why does it matter?

Learner Focus: Subtle motion keeps attention without overwhelming.

Professional Polish: Good pacing adds a cinematic feel to eLearning.

Flow Control: Direct your learner’s eyes intentionally across the screen.

🚀 Pro Tip: Combine Ease In/Out with the Smart Positioning feature for seamless animations that adjust based on your responsive design!
