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.

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 […]
Has anyone been able to get Adobe Captivate Assets to work in a corporate network work environment or while using a VPN? Other than using a public internet connection, has anyone found a work around to get Captivate Assets to work?
I’m using Captivate 2019. Help I use some similar Slides in my project and it doenst work. I have 2 Objects (Shapes1 and Shape 2) on one Slide. Shape 1 has a State, the State has a stroke. Shape 2 is hidden. Shape 1 has “On Success, show Shape 2” So far so good. I added on the Slide itself an “On Enter” advanced action. With a simple command. “Change State of Shape 1 to New State” If i try […]
I just completed my specialist certificate last week and while there I realized that my latest version is missing all the great features that are promoted about it, like the quick start projects, cut out characters buttons and so fourth. The trainer said that I need to download them and gave me a site address. I went to the site and it has the quick start projects but none of the built in assets. I believe this is controlled by […]
Introduction In this blog, I will discuss the merits of the technique of using rhetorical questions under the purview of the Q&A model in combination with scenarios for an effective and engaging Custom eLearning experience. Overview Consider these questions: Don’t you think David could have reached his sales target easily if he had handled the objections of customers efficiently? Do you think Sonia did the right thing by not following the rule? Isn’t it high time that we take initiatives […]
Fonts help set the tone for an e-learning project, but they are rarely a choice made by the e-learning developer or instructional designer. In my experience, most organizations have fonts stipulated within their branding requirements and compliance with the brand is mandatory. Marketing or Communications departments will often supply the font files to support and encourage continued brand compliance. That is how I typically acquire new system fonts. I then have to embed these fonts within an Adobe Captivate Project. This is the process I describe in this article.
Good news. I’ve successfully completed my Certified Online Training Professional Certificate. I want to share my experience with all of you if you are considering getting this valuable certification.
I’m using Captivate 2019, and am getting the “already open” file corruption error when moving my cptx files from one computer to another. I’m closing them properly on the master machine, but it still creates the temporary lock files and does not remove them, and as a result won’t open the cptx from a second machine, even if I delete the temp files or rename and move a duplicated cptx. I know Dcache was sometimes solving this problem last year, […]
I’m new to Captivate 2019, last version I used was 4 and I purchased it specifically for the VR capabilities. Installation went fine, but I’m running into an issue that when trying to view the included VR demos or even try to create a new one, the screen display is blank but the filmstrip shows the image. When I preview the demo locally it runs fine in Google Chrome, but not in IE11. Any guidance/advice would be appreciated.
Hi, I am trying to publish a course using SWF format. The conditions that the client wants to use are SWF format and she wants to disable the elearning output options. When this is published, there is no swf file for her to upload to the LMS. The last time I did this which was in June, there was a swf file. Also, why can’t I publish to both swf and html at the same time anymore? Thanks for any […]
