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 […]

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 […]
Workflow to check entries to multiple fields with one Submit button. Only when all fields have an entry, a button will appear to allow the learner to proceed.
I’m working on a project and need some guidance. I want to ask a question, have it report to my LMS, and, if the question is answered correctly, skip to the next question, or, if the question is answered incorrectly, go to a video clip slide and then go to the next question. Is it possible to do this with the quiz question templates or is there a more detailed set of steps I need to follow to get it […]
I want to publish my first project to Adobe Connect, but I don’t know what to enter for Name and URL of Adobe Connect Server?
I know I must be doing something wrong on a very simple level. I create a shape, click the box to use it as a button. I use animated text on the button and a gradient background. I enter state view and on rollover I change the gradient and change the text. When I view the project, on rollover the gradient changes but the text vanishes. Help?
I have a button that will show/hide (toggle) a text caption, but I could have up to one on each slide that has different words. On each slide, the text caption has a number after it. I’m not sure how to write the advanced action where it is reusable and knows what text caption it is? I’m using Captivate 2017. If I was using Animate I would have a var textName = textCaption + currentSlide; (using concatenation to create an object […]

First of all, what are naming conventions? Good question! Our definition first, then we’ll share some wider thoughts on the topic. Naming conventions allow us to apply a pattern and standard to the way we name things within our computer environment. This could be from names of actual files, to folders, to how we store contacts in a CRM (“First name, Last name” or “Last Name, First Name” for example). If we have a standard by which we name things, […]
