I’ve been using Adobe Captivate for over a decade now, and have always faced one big challenge. If I had to get an answer to a question, find the steps to troubleshoot an issue, learn a new Captivate skill, or learn about some time-saving tips and tricks, I had to literally explore the web to find the resources. Chances were that I would find them at one or more of these places: Adobe Captivate blog, blog pages hosted by the Captivate […]
This might very well be the most important video tutorial you watch on Adobe Captivate this year. In this video, I’ll show you the object styles manager and how I work with object styles in Adobe Captivate. Knowledge of working with object styles is how I can develop eLearning as rapidly as I do.

Probably my favourite feature addition for Adobe Captivate in recent years is multi state objects. When it was first released with the launch of Adobe Captivate 9, I was initially lukewarm to multi-state objects. Prior to version 9, I had three states in my image buttons for up, down, and over; and that was just fine with me. What I didn’t realize was how many different situations I could use multi state objects for. I decided to share some of […]

You may well have heard about Adobe’s new Learning Management System (LMS) – Adobe Captivate Prime. Prime is incredibly simple to use, and it’s fun to sign up for a free trial and easy to add courses, even get started sharing your courses with learners. In a live demo of Captivate Prime this week, I included a number
