Question:
I created a link in Captivate that takes the user to a Web site. However, when I close the window, the Captivate lesson is gone. Help!!! Is there a way to force the target Web site to appear in a new window?
Answer:
Yes, and it’s very easy to do.
First, show the Properties of the click box or button you are using to link the user to the Web site.
From the list to the right of URL, select New. You will also notice that Continue playing project will be active. You would deselect this option if you wanted the movie to stay where it is when the user clicks the link. When the user closes the new window and returns to the project, they will be on the same slide instead of potentially several slides down the line.
