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 […]
Take a quick look around your office. Peer into the next cubicle, or walk into the cafeteria: You will realise that the demographics of your workplace have changed. Chances are you work with a millennial or are one yourself. Those born between 1980 and 2000 make up the single largest generation group in the world currently and are all set to dominate the workforce. By 2025, millennials will constitute 75% of the entire workforce and number over 50 million […]
Is your online training program cost-effective and efficient? Or does it drain your resources? Learn 7 ways a Learning Management System can help. Resources are at a premium in today’s economy.

Here are 7 notable Learning Management System benefits. […]
In one of our previous posts we spoke about the power wielded by millennials, who will soon become the most dominant demographic at workplaces across the globe. In this article, we look at how eLearning designers, trainers, HR managers and those in charge of talent development can leverage digital teaching aids and technology to cater to the needs of this target audience. Young workers today are committed to lifelong learning because, unlike the generations that came before them, millennials are passionate […]
Hello, everyone! With the holiday’s officially upon us, and the countdown to Christmas underway (at least in my house!), I thought now would be the perfect time to talk about a special little surprise found in Captivate. And quite fittingly enough, it’s called GIFT, or General Import Format Technology to be precise. But me? I’m sticking with GIFT. That said, let’s take a quick look at the words that define the acronym to get a better understanding for what it […]
Captivate is really a terrific product for creating E-Learning but often I like to think “Out of the Box” and I need it to do a little more. And the really great thing about Captivate is Adobe has made ways it can do more with JavaScript. But JavaScript can be bit cumbersome and tricky to learn. Well, the good news is there is a 3rd Party Widget called CpExtra which adds all kinds of extra functionality to Captivate without having […]
In this video tutorial, I show you a method to add from over 800 Google web fonts in your Adobe Captivate project. This concept was worked out by Steven Warwick in a previous blog post. I decided that this needed to be a video for all the visual learners like me, so Steven gave me permission to create a video on the topic. If you’re looking for an advanced eLearning developer who can get right to the core coding with JavaScript, Steven’s […]
eLearning is a technology platform which enables you to unleash creativity and develop impactful learning experiences. One of the best strategies to enhance learning effectiveness is to keep your learner engaged with the course content. And this can be achieved via meaningful eLearning interactions that hook your learners and facilitate an active learning in self-paced eLearning courses. Let’s discuss 5 eLearning interactions and the corresponding engaging utility. 1. Cowboy Shooting – Gamified eLearning Assessment Assessments are generally least appealing slides […]
On a recent project, we needed to develop a customer service eLearning course that could act as a live customer, i.e. accept natural language statements, process them, and respond accordingly. If you’ve ever developed a conversation-based eLearning course in the past, you probably created a limited set of questions and corresponding responses, each one branching out to a different slide based on the selected option. While this approach works in many situations, it significantly limits what the learner can “say” […]

Goal This question recently appeared on the forum (thread): “I’d like to customize the results page at the end of a quiz to display the numbers 1 to 20 (representing the 20 questions in the quiz) and indicate if each question was answered correctly or incorrectly.” Although I posted an answer, the user never returned to check it. Since I have spent some time to work out that solution, I also discovered that it could be very useful in two […]
