Slides
Grouping slides
When the number of slides becomes unmanageable, you can group slides. By expanding and collapsing groups,
you can view subsets of the slides instead of all slides at once. Groups also provide a useful overview for the project,
and they provide a convenient way of deleting or hiding multiple slides at once (for example, slides that you don’t
want to publish).
To help associate slides with their group, you can give grouped slides the same border color. The color is visible
from any of the three views (Storyboard, Edit, and Branching), but it doesn’t show when the project is run.
To create a slide group:
1 Open an Adobe Captivate project.
2 Click a slide that you want to group, and use Ctrl-click or Shift-click to select the other slides for the group.
3
Select Slide > Group > Create.
The selected slides are grouped into a single group slide with their numbers and descriptions displayed on it.
To edit a slide group for name and border color:
1
Click a slide group.
2
Select Slide > Group > Edit.
The Slide Group Properties dialog box appears.
3
From the Color pop-up menu, select a color for all of the slides in the group. This color is not displayed when
the project is run.
4
In the Title box, type a name for the group. This title appears at the bottom of the grouped slide.
5
Click OK
To expand or collapse a slide group:
1
Click a slide group.
2 Select Slide > Group > Expand or Slide > Group > Collapse.
Tip:A faster way is to click the arrow icon on top of the group slide.
