Changing mouse movements

You can change mouse movements for an individual slide. This is useful if you have taken a screenshot with mouse
action, but want to change the mouse movement so it is clearer for the user.
To change the start or end point of mouse movement:
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
1
2 Open the slide you want in Edit View.
3 Using your mouse, move your pointer over the end of the mouse line on the slide until your pointer turns into
a hand.
4 Click the left mouse button and drag the mouse point to a new location on the slide.
Note: If you change the mouse point on a slide, the starting mouse point location is changed on the next slide. Preview
your project to ensure that mouse movement flows smoothly from slide to slide.
Note: On the first slide of your project containing mouse movements, you must manually change the start point of the
mouse movement because you cannot align the mouse movement to a previous slide.
