Changing text caption order
Adobe Captivate lets you add multiple captions to each slide. You specify the order in which these captions appear
using the Timeline. The Timeline enables you to precisely adjust the timing of all objects, including captions, on
a slide.
To change caption order using the Timeline:
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
1
2
Navigate to the slide containing the captions whose order you want to change.
3
If it is not open already, show the Timeline by clicking on the splitter bar. To expand the Timeline, click the
display arrow.
4
Change the order and timing of captions as required.
•
For example, move the mouse over the left or right edge of a caption on the Timeline until the resize cursor
appears, and then drag the edge left or right. This changes the time at which the caption appears or ends and
the length of time the caption appears.
•
Alternatively, if you have a caption that is currently displayed at the same time the slide is displayed, but you
want a slight delay, move the mouse over the center of the caption on the Timeline until the hand cursor
appears, and then drag the entire caption so the left edge aligns with 2s (a 2-second delay) or 4s (a 4-second
delay) in the header.
