Chapter 9: Changing Timing
Changing keystroke speed
You can determine whether keystrokes are played slowly or quickly in a project. If the project has
many keystrokes, increasing the speed will make the pace of the project faster. However, if
keystrokes are critical in the project, you may want them to play slowly so users can view them
clearly. Use the Timeline to change keystroke speed.
To change keystroke speed:
1.
Open an Adobe Captivate project that contains keystrokes.
2.
Double-click a slide that contains keystrokes.
3.
If the Timeline is not already displayed, expand it by clicking the display arrow to the left of the
word
Timeline
.
4.
The keystrokes are contained in a Timeline object named “Typing.” To decrease or increase the
keystroke speed, move the mouse pointer over the right edge of the Typing object until the
resize pointer appears, click and hold down the mouse button, and drag the edge to the left or
right.
Changing mouse pointer speed
You determine the speed at which the mouse moves on any individual slide in a project. A high
mouse speed increases the pace at which the project plays. However, if mouse movements are
complicated, you may want to decrease the mouse speed so users can view all movements.
To change mouse pointer speed:
1.
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
2.
Double-click a slide that contains mouse movement.
3.
If the Timeline is not already displayed, expand it by clicking the display arrow to the left of the
word Timeline.
4.
Mouse movement is contained in a Timeline object named “Mouse.” To shorten or lengthen
the amount of time it takes for the mouse movement to play, move the mouse pointer over the
the left edge of the Mouse object until the resize pointer appears, click and hold down the mouse
button, and drag the edge to the left or right.
Changing object timing
You can change the amount of time an object (such as a caption, text entry box, or image) appears
on a slide. You may find this feature useful in several situations. For example, you may want to set
exact object timing when coordinating a voice-over with a highlight box; you might want the
highlight box to appear only when the voice-over says, “Enter the date here.”
You can change object timing by setting object display time or using the Timeline.
To change object timing by setting object display time:
1.
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
2.
Double-click a slide that contains objects.
