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 […]

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 […]
When I first started using adobe captivate it was purchased for me. I worked as an eLearning designer, developer and of course we used whatever software the company provided. Of course, then the decision isn’t yours to make and you have to use whatever software they give you. But I’ve found myself in different circumstances over the years and perhaps my experience can help you when it comes to making the decision for yourself. Student Teacher Pricing In between jobs, […]

A common e-learning interaction is a set of buttons that activate the display of a particular set of images and text. Often, the items are displayed as an overlay on top of the button set, and a semitransparent grey background is added to de-emphasize the selection buttons. When the learner is done with the displayed information, they click on either the background or a specific “close” button. This is commonly referred to as a “Lightbox.” Captivate has all of the […]

Today my YouTube channel, which is dedicated to Adobe eLearning products and services, surpassed 5,000 subscribers. I’d like to take the time to thank not only the Adobe eLearning team members but to all my subscribers. I know full well that most of them have probably come from the eLearning Community at one point or another. Thank you all. I’d like to make […]
This video shows how to make animated image captions to display hidden objectives or additional contents to introduce e-learning modules. It shows a way to make rollover and rollout animations to show/hide captions. It is html5 compatible and for desktop projects. The objective from a basic illustration is to apply one or several animations to a Rollover state which will reveal a caption with its content then to apply a reversed animation to a Visited state (used as rollout) to hide […]
Asking for a colleague . . . Is there a max size and number of Cp slides limit? I have a 430 slide project which publishes to a 391MB unzipped Windows Executable .exe and either loads with a grey circle icon with exclamation mark in it or just a black screen. If I remove a few slides (from anywhere in the project) it loads fine. Seems like I’ve hit a ceiling. That should do for now
