The 12.3 update Adobe made to Adobe Captivate now provides some helpful image editing features. You learn how to add images to a project early on the first day of my two-day Adobe Captivate training class,
Once you have added an image to a slide, you can change the image focus and crop it via a single screen. What I love about the editing enhancements is that you can see how the edit will appear in multiple views without first having to close the editing screen and preview it in the browser.
To change the image focus, select the Visual Properties panel.
To the right of the Image drop-down menu, click the Edit icon to open the Edit Image options.
From the Image Focus area, select an alignment.
The three previews at the right provide a helpful indication of how the edit will appear on multiple displays.
To crop a Captivate image, at the left side of the Edit image screen, drag one of the corner circles a few inches
The preview area will show you how the cropped image will appear in the different screen sizes.
When finished, click the Save button.
Note: Once you have Adobe Captivate 12 installed on your computer, updates are free. To get the 12.3 update, go to the Help menu and click Check for Updates.
