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 […]

I just wrote a script for counting users points in a game and stumbled upon something that seems a very annoying bug to me: When i use the lower sign “<” in my javascript code, Captivate refuses to take over my input. Just tested a simple “alert( 1 < 2 );” I do not get an error when i close the javascript input window, but on reopen the code ist missing if it contains an “<“. B.t.w.: a larger then […]

We’ve all experienced responsive web design, usually in the form of web pages that make use of flexible layouts, images and cascading style sheets (CSS) that detect your mobile phone’s screen size and orientation and change the layout accordingly. As more organisations embrace learning across multiple devices (desktops, laptops, tablets and phones) we now need to develop content that is responsively designed to work across these environments. Where do you start? What are the best practices? Where’s my hoverboard?! In […]

I’m trying to publish an MP4 from Captivate but when I click on Publish to Youtube I get nothing but a blank window and a close button, Is anyone else experiencing this?
I have recently created and published several Captivate 2017 projects as Android apps via PhoneGap. I have updated the phonegapConfig.xml file as recommended and the publish works well, creating the app as requested. However when the app is installed on an Android phone and launched, the app does not run and the spinning wheel of death appears and that’s all I get. Where am I going wrong?

Hi Folks I am looking to create a new course using Fluid Boxes. I’m reviewing the tutorial on how to use them, and it feels pretty straightforward in terms of what you have to do. However, I am noticing a couple of things that are a bit frustrating: 1. Color picker – it is not picking up the color I am selecting – not even close to it. 2.
