144 Chapter 9: Changing Timing
Tip: You can adjust the zoom level of the Timeline easily. Click in the Timeline ruler and spin the
mouse wheel on your mouse to increase or decrease the zoom level. Alternatively, use keystrokes to
change the zoom level. Click on the ruler and then press Ctrl+[ to decrease zoom level, Ctrl+] to
increase zoom level, or Ctrl+W to set the zoom level so all objects will fit within the current Timeline
width.
Hiding and locking object layers
The Timeline lets you lock or hide individual object layers on a slide. When there are several
objects on a slide, you would hide an object layer to ease slide editing.
To hide or show an object layer:
1.
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
2.
Double-click a slide.
3.
If it is not open already, display the Timeline by clicking the splitter bar. To expand the
Timeline, click the display arrow.
4.
To the left of the bar that represents the object layer you would like to hide or show, click the
column underneath the eye symbol.
If the object was showing, the object disappears from the slide and an X appears in the column.
If the object was hidden, the object appears on the slide and the X disappears from the column.
Note: When you hide an object layer, it is hidden only on the stage. You can still view the layer when it
is previewed or published.
To lock or unlock an object layer:
1.
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
2.
Double-click a slide.
3.
If it is not open already, show the Timeline by clicking the splitter bar. To expand the Timeline,
click the display arrow.
4.
To the left of the bar that represents the object layer you would like to lock or unlock, click the
column underneath the lock symbol.
If the object was unlocked, a lock symbol appears in the column and you can no longer select
and edit the object on the slide. If the object was locked, the lock symbol disappears from the
column and you can select and edit the object on the slide.
Previewing a slide using the playhead
The playhead moves through the Timeline to indicate how the currently displayed slide appears
in the project. It is a quick and efficient way to preview a single slide and check object timing.
The Timeline header shows time, in seconds (1s for 1 second, 2s for 2 seconds, and so on), so you
see exactly when objects appear.
To preview a slide using the playhead:
1.
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
2.
Double-click a slide.
