Adding plain text to a slide 73
Adding plain text to a slide
As you edit a project, you may want to add some text to the slide, but not have the text appear as
a text caption over the slide. There is an easy trick you can use to add plain text to a slide: simply
add the text as a transparent text caption.
To create a transparent text caption:
1.
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
2.
Select the slide to which you want to add a transparent text caption.
3.
From the Insert menu, select Text Caption.
The Caption Properties dialog box appears.
4.
In Caption type, select [transparent].
5.
Change other text caption options as necessary.
Font Click the pop-up menu to select a font for the text caption.
Size Type a number or click the pop-up menu to select a font size for the caption text.
Color
Click the color box to select a font color for the caption text.
Caption style
Click one of the five text caption types. Many of the text caption styles
contain text captions with directional callouts so you can select a text caption that points in the
most appropriate direction.
Display options
If you want, set additional display options such as bold, italic, or underlined
text, and text justification.
Type caption text here
Enter the caption text exactly as you want it to appear.
6.
To specify the exact size and position of the caption, click the Size and Position tab. Using these
options instead of dragging the text box help you create consistent text boxes throughout your
project.
7.
Use the Settings menu to select how to apply property changes in the project. To apply all your
changes, select Apply only changed properties. To apply all the text caption settings, select
Apply all properties. You can apply the text caption settings to the current slide only or to all
slides. And you can choose to apply the text caption settings to all captions or only the text
captions of the same type as the current one.
Note: If you change the settings in this dialog box, they become the default settings and any new
text captions you create use the new settings.
8.
Click the Apply to all button to apply the settings specified from the Settings menu.
9.
Click OK.
Note: If you create a transparent caption, avoid underlining text because doing so might decrease
text quality when the project is viewed.
Tip: After adding the transparent text caption, you may want to merge the caption with the slide
background.
