Adding images and animation
Adding animation slides
If you have a SWF, AVI, FLA, or animated GIF file, you can add the file to your Adobe Captivate project as a new
slide. This is a fast and easy way to make your project more informative using content you have already created.
Note: Adding animation as a slide is most appropriate with larger animation files.
Note: If you want to add a Flash animation file (FLA), you must first converted it to a SWF file. To do this conversion
you must have Flash CS3 or later installed on your computer.
To add an animation slide:
1 Open an Adobe Captivate project.
2
Select Insert > Slide > Animation Slide.
The Open dialog box appears.
3
Navigate to the animation file you want to insert (SWF, AVI, FLA, or animated GIF) and click Open. The
animation slide is generated and added to the project.
Note:
It is important to set the correct frame rate. All imported animation files will play at the rate selected in the
Project preferences dialog box, regardless of the rate prior to when the file is imported. The default setting is 30 flash
frames per second and is appropriate in most cases. You may need to change the rate if you are embedding your Adobe
Captivate SWF in another SWF file that has a frame rate different than 30.
Note:
When you create an animation slide, the amount of time the slide is displayed in the project automatically
defaults to the length of the animation file itself. For example, if the animation file that you use to create a new
animation slide is only 1.2 seconds in length, the animation slide appears for 1.2 seconds. To change the amount of
time the slide is displayed, open the slide in Edit view, select the Slide menu, select Properties, and enter a new number
of seconds in Display Time. Or, use the Timeline to change slide display time.
