Question: Can You Resize Captivate Captions Even Smaller?
Do you know if it is possible in Adobe Captivate 2.0 to resize captions to a size smaller than their default size?
For example, when I add a halogreen Caption 4 to the slide, I am unable to resize it to smaller than 156 x 81 pixels, even with "Constrain proportions" unchecked.
Somewhere in the Captivate documentation, there’s mention that "you cannot make the caption smaller than the bitmap used to create the caption", but I was wondering if you know of any workarounds, other than creating my own custom captions?
Answer:
Great question, but sorry, you cannot do it. Your only alternative is to create custom captions.
Here are some links that should help you learn to create your own custom captions:
Paul has a great Web site offering tons of Captivate information and goodies. There is also a page dedicated to custom captions.
Dave Mozelealous’ BLOG where he created a cartoon caption.
