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 […]

Is a PowerPoint to Presenter workflow just too limited for you? Most eLearning professionals, trainers and instructional designers quickly realize that a workflow based entirely on PowerPoint is just too narrow in scope to meet the broad needs and interests of authoring online educational content. So how difficult is
Over the past year we’ve been thrilled to present more than 50 eSeminars for thousands of AdobeCaptivate and Adobe eLearning Suite users and now we’re stepping it up another notch. What started as weekly eSeminars every Wednesday has now grown to as many as three sessions a week. Yesterday RJ announced that we’ll be starting weekly open sessions called “Ask the Adobe eLearning Team.” These open format sessions are
One of the very important way to create engaging content in Adobe Captivate 5 is to enhance it by adding audio. To introduce these workflows, we had a two-part series training session discussing different options available to add, record and edit audio, add Text-to-Speech, etc. The recordings of these sessions is available at Adobe OnDemand Seminars page, you can also click the links below to view the recorded sessions: Enhancing Adobe Captivate Content with Audio – Part 1 Enhancing Adobe […]
Problem: Videos do not get streamed in Adobe Captivate projects. Reason: The URIs of the videos are specified incorrectly. Solution:
Issue: AICC enabled LMS allows SCO’s to reside on different server i.e. CMS, File server etc. When the Captivate course and LMS are in different domains and when user tries to access the course from LMS it hangs at the loading screen Reason: Adobe Captivate does not construct the required URLs correctly when the course and LMS are in different domains. Same domain no issues have been reported, course which resides in LMS also has no issues. The fix is […]
Many of us have need to develop traditional knowledge based training. One great way to increase user satisfaction with these modules is to make them self-guided.

I’m back with the next type of screen. We learned how to create a Tabbed Screen couple of weeks back. Now let’s see how we can create a Click-Reveal Text screen in Adobe Captivate 5. Before we get into the steps, let me show you how the screen would look like: Looks good?
Last week we conducted the fourth session in the Adobe Captivate Training series. The session was about Adding Interactivity to eLearning Courses with Adobe Captivate 5. In this training session, we demonstrated how to add various interactive and noninteractive objects to eLearning course and the best practices of using these objects in Adobe Captivate projects. We did so by displaying a completed course to the attendees, where we had used most of the Adobe Captivate objects and then went on […]
When I try to take Captivate SCORM course on some Learning Management Systems (LMS) which support both SCORM and AICC, Captivate SCORM course freezes on load with “Loading…” screen and does not move forward. This is usually seen with only few LMSs which support both SCORM and AICC. When I look at the SCORM API calls to LMS, I don’t see Initialize API being called at all. When dug deeper, I found that Captivate course was loaded as SCORM course […]
Vish and I conducted a training session yesterday on Adding Interactivity to eLearning Courses with Adobe Captivate 5, where we demonstrated how to add interactive and noninteractive objects to eLearning courses. We displayed a completed course to the attendees and then went on to create it from scratch, where we were picking content from the storyboard to create the course. Looks like the participants liked the storyboard template
