NotificationI’m a relative new user of Captivate and trying to understand how to do the following: I’ve created a software simulation and to add it to my company’s LMS I need to have an Exit button to allow users to leave the simulation before they’ve completed and when they hit the Exit button I need to have a text box appear asking them if they’re sure they want to leave the course. And within that text box, there would need […]
In this video tutorial, I show you how you can replace the standard Retake Quiz button with a custom solution that allows you to retake the course. This solution will reset your quiz but also jump to any slide in your course, and not just the first slide of your quiz. This is great if you prefer to have learners retake the entire course instead of just the quiz.
I wrote this tutorial a while back and posted it to LinkedIn. I figure I should probably post this here so others in the Captivate community are aware of the possibilities. While there are fantastic tutorials on how to create 360 paintings and some great tutorials on how to create spherical images and video from 360 cameras, they still don’t address Captivate nor do they approach things from the perspective of instructional design/eLearning development (or whatever you or your org […]
This tutorial details the steps to use multistate objects wherein the content changes in a single object using buttons, and keeping the next button hidden until all the buttons are clicked, without the use of advanced actions. This is achieved by the following 4 steps:
1. Name the slide ‘multistate’.
2. Name the multistate object ‘ms_[interaction name].
3. Name the buttons ‘[interaction name]’_user defined button name’.
4. Name the next button to be hidden ‘[interaction name]_completed’.
This method saves a lot of time compared to forced navigation using advanced actions that involve variable creation and action assignment.

How long does it take for content, such as blogs and video tutorials, to be reviewed before it can be published to the Community?
In this video tutorial, I review a similar question I saw twice on the same day – how to get a responsive design course to fill the screen on desktop as well as on tablets and mobile devices.
The tutorial takes you through steps to convert an image or a shape into a button in adobe captivate.
The tutorial walks through the process of enabling scalability feature in captivate to ensure the published HTML5 or SWF video plays with respect to the size of the screen irrespective of the project size.
How do I link user interactions in a custom Adobe Animate interactive to report metrics such as time spent on a screen and which assets and buttons students are interacting with to Captivate’s analytics reporting system?
