Let us take a deep breath first!

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.

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 […]

© Ugur Akinci “Design for How People Learn” by Julie Dirksen is a heavy book, both literally (top-quality glossy paper) and figuratively. It’s an important reference work that I think all trainers, instructors, and e-learning designers should read. We are lucky to have today e-learning tools like Adobe Captivate and others. Setting up slides, quizzes, links, buttons, voiceovers, inserting images, videos etc. is a breeze. However, when it comes to designing a learning experience that would actually help the students […]
In this video, I demonstrate how you can use a text entry box to capture a bunch of text from your users and then display it back to them on a later slide without any display difficulties.
Things I like about Adobe Captivate #1 – my end users never have to see this: Okay now it’s your turn. Come up with a reason you like Captivate and enter it here.
Title is not an nostalgic reference to the best spreadsheet application ever (Lotus 1-2-3) but is related to… Captivate. The THREE ‘eye buttons’ in Captivate are a source of confusion because they have exactly the same look (contrary to my image above) but show very different functionality. Questions due to that confusion appear not as frequently as the timeline misunderstanding questions, but nevertheless think that a clear explanation could help to dissipate confusion: 1. Eye button on the Timeline This […]
In this week’s eLearning LIVE STREAM, I will share with you Adobe Presenter Video Express or PVX for short. I will discuss why I feel this might be a great alternative for some over Adobe Captivate.

Hi all, I’m in need of a new laptop as mine is dying. Even crashed whilst on a skype call with a client recently. Great first impression. I was wondering what makes Captivate happy for performance, and if any of you have recommendations on any models. Budget is up to £1,000, which is around $1,262.90, according to Google, as of today. I would prefer a laptop over a desktop for portability and for taking it to meetings etc. Thanks […]
I’ve been wondering whether it’s best to use your own name for your company when freelancing, or use a “branded” approach instead. I know some of you use your own name for your business and would like to hear your experience with it when promoting yourself. Would really appreciate your insights.
Adobe Captivate 2017 comes with an exciting new workflow to aid in the creation of responsive eLearning courses: Fluid Boxes. Instead of designing multiple slides for different screen sizes (known as breakpoints), you work on a single slide. Fluid Boxes, containers that you insert on the stage and then populate with content, improve the responsive development time significantly. Let’s take a look at the steps to record a responsive simulation with Captivate 2017: To begin, start Captivate 2017 and double-click […]
