Simple Video Tutorial created in Captivate using Software Simulation.
Here is a simple Video tutorial created using Software Simulation in Captivate.
Topic: ‘IF’ feature in Excel.

Thanks for the great example
Chandresh I did see that you were retyping the formula, not dragging nor copying. Maybe I didn’t explain well enough.
Sure, I know very well that managing slides is a lot easier than managing a video demo. Maybe I have to write out some practical tips. I never will record a video demo in one session, but always capture a sequence of short video clips in the same video. I edit each video clip before adding the next one. That makes the process a lot easier to manage, and the final result is of much better quality than a mp4 created from a software simulation in demo mode. Since CP2019 I always convert to an interactive video to offer not only better control to the learner, but to add overlay content and KC slides as well. Sort of alternative for software sims in Training or Assessment mode.
No Captivate comment, but some questions. You have to know that I have been teaching spreadsheets (Lotus 1-2-3 and Excel) for a couple of decades in the past, collaborated on the development of a cost price calculation application based on them (for building industry).
As a learner I would like to know why you don’t use the copy formula? Moreover the apearing green small triangle in the top corner of the cell is intriguing (know what it means) and should be explained from pedagogical point of view.
For a pure demo I never use software simulation anymore, because FMR slides can become quirky if the conversion from SWF to MP4 is not working well. That is one of the reasons I replace it by a Video Demo, at least the FMR slides if I don’t have time for the full video. Did you do that as well?
