Slides
Changing slide color
Slides can be any color you select. Slide color can depend, however, on the slide type and how the slide was
captured. For example, if you set the background color of a project, all new blank slides you add are assigned the
background color. You can change the color of a slide using slide properties.
To change slide color:
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
1
Double-click the slide whose background color you want to change.
2
Select Slide > Properties.
3
The Slide Properties dialog box appears.
In the Slide settings area next to Color, select Custom and click the color box.

•
Click the eyedropper icon to select and copy any color on your screen.
•
In the text field, enter the value for the color you want and press Enter.
If you want to apply the color to all slides, select Apply to all and then click Settings to choose how to apply the

change.
Click OK.

Note: To use the project color on a slide, open the Slide properties dialog box (on the Slide menu, click Properties). In
the Color area, click Project. To change the background color for a project, select Edit > Preferences, and click Settings
in the Project menu. In the Project panel on the right, select a background color for the project in Project background
color.
Creating slide labels
Slide labels are short titles that you assign to each slide. It can be easier to move slides and keep track of them if
you have assigned slide labels instead of just using the slide number.
When you add a label to a slide, the label appears under the slide when you view slides in Storyboard view or in
the Filmstrip. (If you have mouse movement or audio associated with the slide, a mouse icon or audio icon appears
just after the slide label.)
