Chapter 3: Creating Projects
Adobe Captivate contains a special recording feature called “full motion recording” that
automatically captures frames at a higher frame rate when you record any drag-and-drop actions.
To record a new custom-sized project:
1.
Open Adobe Captivate.
2.
On the Start page, click Record or create a new project.
The New project options dialog box appears.
3.
In the left pane, click Software Simulation.
The Software Simulation window appears on the right.
4.
In the right pane, select Custom size and click OK.
The Recording window appears.
5.
Adobe Captivate uses a default capture area of 640 x 480 pixels. To change the size, type new
numbers into Width and Height or use the arrows to enter new numbers. You can also click
Preset sizes and select a commonly used size from the pop-up menu.
Note:
In general, projects larger than 800 x 600 pixels might not stream well over dial-up
connections.
6.
(Optional) From the Optionally, select a window you would like to record pop-up menu, select
an open window to record.
7.
(Optional) Select Record narration to record audio as you record the project.
8.
(Optional) Click Options to set a wide variety of recording options, including the capability to
automatically record the project and automatically generate text captions.
9.
(Optional) If necessary, change the position of the window. To do this, move the mouse over
the red frame until a four-point arrow appears, and then drag the entire window to a new
position. You can also click Snap window to fit inside the red recording area to quickly change
the size of the window you are recording to match the size of the red capture area.
10.
When you finish setting options, click Record.
11.
Adobe Captivate begins recording the onscreen action.
■
If you are automatically recording (that is, you selected the Enable auto recording option in
step 7), Adobe Captivate automatically captures a screenshot every time you perform an
action, such as selecting a menu, clicking a button, or typing text.
Note:
When you are auto-recording, you can take a screenshot manually at any time by
pressing the Print Screen key. This is particularly useful if you are capturing a website that
contains many pop-ups, frames, and special effects that are sometimes not auto-recorded. If
you see a special effect or change take place on a web page you are recording, but do not hear
the camera shutter sound, press Print Screen to take a screenshot manually.
■
If you are manually recording (that is, you did not select the Enable auto recording option
in step 7), press the Print Screen button (or other designated capture key) to capture
screenshots.
