The authoring tool has quickly managed to capture the minds of all eLearning professionals, whether their expertise level stands at beginner, intermediate, or advanced. But to truly maximize its functionality, you need an inside scoop on the best ways to create courses with it. Presenting the Creators’ Workshop Series! Prepare to take your knowledge of […]
Let us take a deep breath first! If we have overused our superlatives in describing any previous contests on this forum, we will like to take it back, and place it here, as what we have witness in these last few weeks on elearning.adobe.com/projects page was nothing short of a phenomenon. This has also left our judges in a tizzy in scoring easily, due to the sheer professional quality of projects that all have created through the Adobe Captivate authoring […]
Big Sur (macOS 11) update for Adobe Captivate (2019 release) is here!
Greetings all. I am always looking for resources and things to learn from. I have read some articles recommending books and unfortunately some that seem really interesting I haven’t been able to find, but I will continue to look. Thought I would pose the question here. What are some good resources that you recommend? They don’t have to specifically be direct to eLearning or Instructional Design, but they obviously can. But if there is something that relates and you feel […]
Hi, Can someone recommend JavaScript, HTML and CSS books for beginners that would be a best fit for Adobe Captivate? I keep researching but do not find anything in particular. However, if anyone can recommend any books that were of great help to you and Captivate, let me know! Currently, I have a few in my Amazon cart but just not sure which would be good. Plan on also heading to a Barnes and Nobles this weekend and see what’s […]

Intro This article is written as an answer to a question on the forums: Drag&Drop with Advanced Action For quiz slides it is possible to show different Failure messages based on the attempt number. That functionality is not available for Drag&Drop slides. As you can read in the thread, another user posted a solution using the Object actions which are executed after each drag action. I posted some comments about the limitations of that solution. In this article the described solution is […]
Hi Everyone! I’m new here and this is my first post. We (in Canada) have just been told that we need to add Descriptive Video to our Captivate eLearning Modules. These modules are being used internally and not public facing, so do we really need to add Descriptive Video? And how can you add it to a module that already has narration? Thank you.
I worked with subject matter experts in instructional design and surgical assistance on this project. The first piece is an interactive learning project the first topic in the first lesson of the first chapter of the first course… that’s a lot of firsts. So far, I’m loving Captivate!
Points in a question according to the number of attempts
I am am back to Captivate after over ten years. I want to convert a powerpoint presentation. When if begging to load the the dialog box appears, it is frozen; I cannot click on anything and have to close Captivate. What am I doing wrong? Thanks
Step by step workflow to find, understand and (within limits) edit interactions in those slides.
Is it possible to book a live Captivate demo for my organisation? We are looking to change authoring tool in the very near future and would like to be able to speak live to someone at Adobe. Thank you
When going through the Adobe Certification, I thought I heard that the widgets are flash based. What is Adobe doing to convert these widgets over since flash will be retired by the end of this year? The widgets are great and very useful so I am hoping they have plans for them to work in a post-flash world.
Hi all, I feel like I should know how to do this, but I’m a bit rusty on Captivate right now. I have a Forward button that isn’t showing until the audio finishes (compliance course) and on some slides, I have text animations. I’d like to track the slide visits so when the Back button is clicked, it will automatically show the Forward button on the previous slide, but ALSO jump to the point in the timeline where the animation […]
The installation of the update fails near the end and seems to corrupt the installation. When I start up Captivate 2019 I get a dialogue box that reads Adobe Captivate 7 The localized resources files for this application could not be loaded…… After I click OK the Captivate 2019 splash screens displays but then disappears. There is no option to repair so I have to uninstall/reinstall. I didn’t see any solutions so any suggestions would be appreciated. Dave
Hello I’m Miho. I have little experience with making VR videos into a project, and I would appreciate any tips from anyone who knows. ・ Is it possible to continue displaying the wipe (image)without stopping the playback of the VR video? ・I would like to know if there is an editing method that does not use hotspots for VR videos. ・ Can VR videos be trimmed on Captivate? ・ How much VR video data is optimal for editing? Even one, […]
This is the third time this week that someone has reached out to me with this question. When this happens I usually write a blog post to answer instead of writing the same email to multiple people explaining my thoughts about this controversial question. This way I can now refer people making similar inquiries to this post rather than repeating myself.
