Captivate Question: Can I Add Closed Captions to Failure Caption Audio
I've just discovered — to my horror — that I can add Closed Captions to Captivate slide audio but not failure caption audio (e.g. the failure caption for a click box). Is this true or have I missed something?
Answer
You haven't missed a thing. You cannot add closed captions to failure captions in Captivate 3. That sure would be a nice addition to Captivate 4!
Captivate Question: Can I Force Closed Captions to Appear Automatically?
Is there a way to have the closed captioned text appear automatically without the user having to click on the CC button on the control panel – maybe a setting that I missed?
Answer:
Captivate does not support this feature. However, as a workaround, you can add a widget to your project that would take care of this for you. Here's a link.
RoboHelp Question: Why Am I Getting a Message to Install a Web Browser?
I'm using Adobe RoboHelp 7 HTML. When I try to compile my project I'm getting a message that says something like Please install a web browser. What can I do? My project will not compile at all. I'm using Internet Explorer as my Web browser.
Answer:
It sounds like Internet Explorer needs to be associated with your HTML files. Here's how you can fix the problem:
- Find any HTML file on your hard drive
- Right-click the file and choose Properties
- On the General tab, click the Change button to display the Open with dialog box
- Select Internet Explorer from the list of programs and click OK twice to close both dialog boxes.
Back in RoboHelp, you will now be able to successfully generate your project.
