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.

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 […]

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 […]
A training request has come in, and it’s time for you, the new Instructional Designer, to design and develop the training. So now what? What are you going to do? What approach are you going to take? It’s so easy for you to get caught up in educational theories and industry trends, that you may just sit and stare at the screen – unsure what to do next. So, I ask again – now what?

I was trying to download some free characters from ELB and when I download them they are not being added to “My Assets” library. Do I need to do anything after I download the asset? Thank you in advance for your help!
Hello. I am working on a tutorial in Captivate 2017 with audio narration. All displays fine in Chrome, Edge and Internet Explorer except for the following problem: when you try to use the rewind or fast forward buttons, the audio is disabled and there is no way to re-enable it unless you reload the presentation. Is there a fix for this? In lieu of that, is there some way to simply remove the fast forward and rewind buttons from the […]

OK…I’m on a roll this week with JavaScript questions. I’m attempting to use JavaScript to move an object off the side of the page and then back on when you select a button. Here’s the code I used: var obj = document.getElementById( ‘re-txtField_2c’ ); var posX = parseInt( obj.style.left ); obj.style.transition = “.4s”; obj.style.left = (posX + 910) + ‘px’; I had code to bring the button back as well, but it doesn’t seem like I need it. Through troubleshooting […]
When you publish an Animate CC file, you’re creating a HTML5/JavaScript file. Captivate when published to a web format uses HTML5/JavaScript. So it makes sense that you can not only combine these projects, but you can also get the two projects to talk to each other using JavaScript. This blog shows you a few steps on how you can combine these two platforms.
Here’s another question related to a project I previously asked a question about. I’m trying to make an object slide off the page to the right, change it’s state, and then slide back on to the page from the right. The problem is that one effect seems to be cancelling out the other. Here is the preview of the action: Note that LefttoRight and RighttoLeft are both “custom” actions because I needed them to move specific distances. I loaded the […]
