Recording other types of projects
55
Note:
Templates are particularly effective if you have specific project preferences you want to use
repeatedly. Simply create a blank project, set the preferences, save it as a template, and create a new
project with the template by following these steps.
To use a template to create a new project:
1.
Open Adobe Captivate.
2.
On the Start page, under Other project types, select Create project from template.
The Open dialog box appears, showing the contents of the Adobe Captivate Templates folder
(My Documents\My Adobe Captivate Projects\Templates).
3.
Select the template you want to use and click Open. If the template you want to use is not listed,
click Browse to navigate to the template. (Adobe Captivate templates have the file extension
.cptl.)
The Template Options dialog box appears.
4.
Select the option to add new slides to the end of the project or after a selected slide, and click
OK.
The Recording window appears.
5.
(Optional) From the Optionally, select a window you would like to record pop-up menu, select
an open window to record.
6.
(Optional) Select Record narration to record audio as you record the project.
7.
(Optional) Click Options to set a wide variety of recording options, including the capability to
automatically record the project and automatically generate text captions.
8.
(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. If you selected a window in step 5, you can 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.
Note:
You can position the capture area anywhere on your screen. You cannot, however, resize
the capture area because it is set to the same size as the template. If, after recording new slides to
create a project with the template, you need the completed project to be a different size, you can
resize the project.
9.
When you finish setting options, click Record.
10.
Adobe Captivate begins recording the onscreen action.
If you are automatically recording the project (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.
If you are manually recording the project (that is, you did not select the Enable auto recording
option in step 7), press the Print Screen key (or other designated capture key) on the keyboard
to capture screenshots.
