ADOBE CAPTIVATE 3 29 User Guide Capturing screenshots in full motion If you are recording a project or additional slides that contain drag-and-drop movement, mouse wheel scrolling or drawing (for example, in a graphics program), Adobe Captivate can record those special actions at a higher frame rate so the actions flow smoothly and look realistic. This is called full motion recording. If you are automatically recording a project or slides, you can have Adobe Captivate automatically capture any mouse wheel action, drag-and-drop motions or drawing in full motion. Adobe Captivate will automatically start to capture frames at a higher rate any time you click on an object and drag the object or start drawing. When you stop dragging or finish drawing, full motion recording ends and regular recording begins again. If you are recording manually, you can control when full motion recording begins and ends. To start recording in full motion at any time, press F9 and to end full motion recording, press F10. Text captions Text captions are text created during recording in the Demonstration and Custom modes. Text captions appear on a slide within a project. Text captions are a way of "talking" to viewers and are frequently used to point out certain areas on a slide, explain concepts, or give viewers more information (e.g., a phone number or website address). As with recording, text captions can be created automatically or manually. If you are auto-recording a project or additional slides, you can have Adobe Captivate automatically create text captions at the same time. Text captions are generated for various actions such as selecting a menu or pressing a button. For example, if you record the action of selecting the File menu, Adobe Captivate automatically adds a text caption that reads "Select File menu" on the same slide. After the text captions are created and placed on slides, you can edit the text or change formatting at any time. If you create a project manually, you can add text captions as necessary. Click boxes Click boxes are interactive boxes created during recording in the Assessment Simulation, Training Simulation, and Custom modes. Click boxes appear on slides and give project viewers a chance to actually "use" an application or website. After viewers click a click box, you can have the project perform different actions such as continue to play, open a new project, or go to a specific website. If you automatically record a project or slides, Adobe Captivate can add click boxes automatically. If you have an existing project, you can add click boxes at any time. Auto text entry boxes Auto text entry boxes are interactive boxes created during recording in the Assessment Simulation, Training mode, and Custom modes. Auto text entry boxes are created when you type text during recording.
