Need help - Continue button to open next content (SCO)

$
0
0

Hi all,

 

We are using SuccessFactors LMS and I have set up a training item with several single SCO (content objects). To make it easier at the end of each chapter I want the user to click on a "Continue" button to open immediately the next chapter instead of closing the player, going back to the content structure and clicking on the next SCO.

 

I am not really firm with javascript or anything like that. Does anybody how to embed this javascript into a proper working continue button?

 

javascript:launchBrowserContent('contentWindow','/learning','3113021','855002',varModuleNa me3113021M855002,varLaunchFile3113021M855002,'null','width=1024,height=800,top=0,left=0,to olbar=0,location=0,directories=0,status=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=1',true,60,80);

 

This is the URL I get from the browser and I guess it can be opened somehow with a javascript (or actionscript).

 

Any hint is appreciated.


Thank you and regards,

 

 

Mike


Finding out if it's Captivate?

Is there a way to find out if an e-Learning presentation was created using Adobe Captivate within the code?

Thanks.

Can you get 'Navigate visited slides only' ToC option to work on mobile devices?

$
0
0

The recent CP9 update fixed some important bugs for mobile devices, but I still find that when I use the 'Navigate visited slides only' option in the Table of Contents to restrict navigation this can still be defeated on mobile devices by swiping left or right.

 

Is there a workaround for this? I know I could disable gesture support but the double-tap to toggle the ToC is handy, especially on small devices. I cannot see an option to specify only certain gestures on publishing. Will this be corrected in the next update?

Right-click issue in simulations (Windows 10)

Hi, I've been using Captivate 9 (version 9.0.0.223) to build a course which features a few simulations.

 

Everything was fine when we had Windows 7, but since we upgraded to Windows 10 an issue has arisen when using Internet Explorer.

 

Whenever the learner has to right-click on the screen, the Flash menu appears (see screenshot below).

 

right-click-issue.jpg

 

Please note that it works fine in Chrome - the issue appears to be specific to Internet Explorer (we've tried ie9 and ie11) in Windows 10.

 

I have the correct settings with Right-Click ticked and Accessibility disabled and, as I said, it was working fine with Windows 7 and works in Chrome.  The course is published for both Flash and HTML and is running on SCORM cloud.

 

Has anyone else experienced this issue and do you have any advice on how to fix it?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I have an scorm of a project which has pretest and a quiz inside, but don’t have the .cptx itself. Do I have a chance to something like importing the contents of a scorm (or a specific file of scorm) into the captivate and get the scoring points and the other quiz settings??

Help is very much appreciated…

Cp9 HTML Published - Zoom Image Shows White Space Around Stage

Hi Cp Community!

 

I'm publishing a project for mobile devices using Cp9.  I've enabled mobile gestures to allow users to swipe, zoom, etc.  In testing the project, once user zooms and swipes around stage, I can see the edge of the stage (image takes up entire stage) and even go far beyond the stage to see white space in all directions.  Assuming this is the padding, margin and border, I'm trying to find the right code in html file or css file to edit so that users cannot go beyond the edge of the stage.  Here's a snap shot from my iPhone (I've zoomed in and swiped the stage all the way to the right, so what you're seeing is the edge of the stage with a ton of white space taking up the nearly the entire viewport).  Any idea how I can correct this so that users cannot go beyond the stage when zoomed in? - Ryan

Captivate 9 Video Embed Frame and Play Bar Problems

$

Hi,

 

We have been working on an online course in Captivate 9 and these funky lines are appearing on our video embeds from Vimeo. It is as if the video frame is extending beyond the bottom of the video. Also, when we play the video, the play bar appears above the bottom black horizontal line and then disappears.

 

Does anyone know the answer to these questions:

1) What are the circled lines below the video and how do I get rid of them?

2) Why does the Vimeo playbar show then disappear when the video starts playing?

 

Any help would be most appreciated.

 

Best,

-Dani

Google plans to start blocking Flash in Chrome this year

Flash's death has been slow and painful, and now Google is planning to deal it another blow. Google has detailed plans to start blocking most Flash content with Chrome, with the change targeted toward the end of this year.

Under its current vision, nearly every website would have Flash content blocked by default. Visitors would still be able to enable Flash content on a site-by-site basis, but they would have to specifically choose to do so. Chrome would display a prompt offering to enable Flash; if chosen, Chrome would remember to run Flash on that site for all future visits.

This is MAJOR... Anyone else worried about this? What does Adobe / Captivate respond back to this? I couldn't find anything online. Even though we have HTML5 courses, a lot of them have required builtin SWF widgets that would definitely need to still work. Thoughts...

HTML5 Captivate Project works in Internet explorer but NOT Chrome

$

I published the captivate project as an HTML 5 and uploaded it to Blackboard as a SCORM. 

When I run it in Google Chrome I have two problems:

  1. The project does not automatically load; There is just a blank screen  (that I did not create) AND then I have to press play to get the project started (so I can see the screen)
  2. The click boxes don't work at all.

 

In Internet Explorer it works perfectly.  Has anyone else ever experienced this when using an LMS??  I am trying to figure out if there is anything I can do in Captivate to avoid it (or whether I need to try and solve the problem from the Blackboard side)

 

Thanks for your help!

Please help me!

 

I have re-opened my Captivate project after saving it yesterday and shutting down. This morning all of the text has disappeared.

 

I can see the text in the filmstrip, but it does not appear on the main screen. When I click on the area that would hold the text, the text re-appears, however it does not show when previewing or publishing out.

 

Has anyone had this issue before?

How to create my own responsive template

$

Good morning,

 

I need to create my own responsive template so we can accelerate the development of our eLearning modules.  I know how to create a template.  But it only gives me the option to make a static one.  I thought I could open the default responsive template file, modify it and then save it under a new name. But it is nowhere to be found or I just can't find it! .

 

Every asset web sites I found like the eLearning Brothers allows you to download what they call a template, but it is a loaded project, not a true template (CPTL) file.

 

Can anyone help me please?

 

Thank you!  Rik

Audio stop randomly, when conten play cp 9

Hi, I have HTML5 output from Captivate 9.0.1. Some smart shapes are used as buttons and they plays audio via advanced actions. The problem is, when I preview the exported HTML5 content (not responsive project) in actual version of Chrome and click to each button, audio randomly stop, every time at another place of audio. Some times it works normally. What you think about it?

 

Thanks for any response.

Hi,

 

Trying to play and view SCORM compatible files exported from Adobe Captivate 8 and 9 in Success Factors LMS.

 

I get the message - 'ERROR – unable to acquire LMS API, content may not play properly and results may not be recorded. Please contact technical support’

 

I have tried SCORM versions 1.2 v3 and 2004 V2 and V4.  We can view the content, however it does not track, show as complete etc.

 

We are just in the process of implementing Success Factors and are a bit stumped....

 

Anyone experienced this problem before? Or know of a fix?

 

Many thanks

 

 

 

 

Captivate Prime Issues

$

I created a curriculum and writing program for children who need to improve their writing skills.There are  9 lessons I created using captivate 9.  My intention was to load my lessons on Captivate prime and have my students access them.  Captivate Prime is overkill for me and way to complicated. It has some quirks that are annoying and support is almost non-existent. I would love your expertise with the following questions:

 

  1. How can I add modules to a previously published course?
  2. How can I update previously loaded modules (Sometimes it updates, while other times it prompts me to create a whole new module.)
  3. I have several modules that I will use as templates to create new ones.   However, Captivate reads these as the same file and although I've changed the file name, it tries to update the previously uploaded file. ( This is the time I don't want it to update ugh!)
  4. I do not wish for my user to have to create and adobe id to use the lessons. Is this required? (I'd rather create several guest passwords but it seems each has to be attached to a unique email)
  5. Is there a simpler option other than Prime?

I desperately need help. Here is what I need to get my kid's writing program off the ground:

  1. A place to host my captivate 9 lessons,
    (with no download required by students)
  2. Username/ password protection for learners ( Assigned by me or easily created by each student)
  3. Next module becomes available after completing the first or based on date.
  4. Upload handouts and additional teaching material (i.e. "library" or attached file)

Captivate 9 Can't print to Microsoft Word

Suddenly I can't print to Microsoft Word (version 15.22.1). Office updated a few days ago (MS Office 365) on my Mac running El Capitan version 10.11.5

 

I get the message that either the document is already open or to check that I have MS Word installed. Of course, neither of those issues are the case. I see that there are others that had this same problem with Captivate 8 and the question/issue was never resolved.

 

My boss relies on these to review my work. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

TOC title for random question slides

I wish to create a quiz that draws randomly from a pool of questions.  I think I know how to do this (correctly), but when I do, the table of contents is only showing (under "Slide Title") the the name/title of the random question slide itself, which doesn't really give any useful information.  I am wondering if there is any way to instead show the title of the actual question that is selected (and presented) by the random question slide.  This, in my opinion, would be much more useful to users taking the quiz.  Is there any known way of doing this?  Thanks!

Execute Advanced Action starting time based?

Actually, this question should have been asked before. I want to run an Advanced Action after a certain time. In Adobe Flash is this pretty easy -  buit in Captivate also? Since I have no "OnEnterFrame" function, there may be a workaround? Are there solutions?
