Localizing Captivate project into Japanese

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 19 Sep 2012 21:33:21 GMT

My company is looking to localize our English Captivate training modules into Japanese. I understand how the Export/Import Captions feature works for translating the text, and I understand the options for audio narration (text to speech or live person narration).

My company is very keen to include interactivity in these Japanese modules - click boxes, TEBs. The click boxes aren't a problem but how do the TEBs work? Is it possible? How can I set up the module without being able to type in Japanese characters from my keyboard?

Also, if anyone is using Text to Speech software other than Neospeech for foreign language, I would love some suggestions. Neospeech is great for now, but we may localize in languages not offered by Neospeech in the future.

Thanks!

ETA: I'm using Captivate 6.

Certain action shortcut keys not working

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 26 Jul 2012 17:10:49 GMT

In my Captivate 5.5 training simulation, I want users to click Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. I've tried inserting a transparent click box and setting the shortcut to Ctrl+C. On success is set to go to the next slide.

When I preview the training and I press Ctrl+C on my keyboard, nothing happens. I don't get the fail message and the slide doesn't advance.

If I set the shortcut to something else, like Ctrl+L, it works fine. I'm guessing that certain Windows keyboard combinations are not allowed as shortcuts? Is there a way around this?

Thanks!

Modules staying In Progress after completion

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 03 May 2011 16:17:37 GMT

Captivate 5

Adobe Connect

Most of my modules have quizzes so after the user passes the quizzes, the modules change to Passed on Adobe Connect. However, a few do not have quizzes. I've turned off Reporting for those projects. When the user completes those modules, their status remains In Progress. How can I set those projects up so that completing the module = Passed?

Thanks!

Jump to slide not working

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 15:53:06 GMT

Hi. I'm using Captivate 3. My module is set up like this:

Slide 1: Title

Slide 2: Task Selection with buttons where users can choose which section to complete (Demo, Interactive Activity #1, 2, 3, 4, Quiz).

Slides 3-10: Demonstration

Slides 11-20: Interactive Activity #1

Slides 21-30: Interactive Activity #2

Slides 21-40: Interactive Activity #3

Slides 41-50: Interactive Activity #4

Slides 51-55: Quiz

These buttons on Slide 2 work fine:

Demo

Interactive Activity #1

These buttons on Slide 2 do not work - nothing happens when I click:

Interactive Activity #2

Interactive Activity #3

Interactive Activity #4

Quiz

I have another module set up similarly but without any user interactivity. So I think the problem is with the interactivity, but I can't figure it out.

Help please!

Show progress through eLearning project

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 20:36:10 GMT

I have about 50 eLearning modules and I want to be able to show a user's progress through the entire training. Like if the user has completed 25 out of 50 modules it would say 50% complete.

Any ideas on how I can make this happen?

Thanks!!

Deploying Air Help via the web

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 17:12:22 GMT

We have created Air Help and want to make it available for our customers to download it from our website. Is this possible? Our web person put the .air file up but it downloaded as a zip file.

Thanks!

Problem with install - serial number

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 12:54:33 GMT

I recently installed RH8 as an upgrade to X5. There is no serial number anywhere on the DVD case so I was only able to install it in trial mode. I spent an hour on the phone being transferred back and forth between customer service and tech support, each insisting it was the other department that should help me. No luck. Does anyone know a quick way to get this issue resolved?

Thanks!

RH 8, WinHelp, Japanese

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 21:41:04 GMT

Hi. My company recently decided to localize in French and Japanese. Currently we generate WinHelp 2000 using x5. Their plan was to send the raw Word documents to a language translation company and then we would create the WinHelp 2000 project to generate .hlp/.cnt files.

I see that Japanese is not supported in x5, so I'm looking into version 8. But...is WinHelp 2000 a valid output in v8?

(I know we should update our help system to something a little more modern, but that is what the powers that be want for now.)

Thanks!

Lost disc - will this work?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 08 May 2007 20:29:40 GMT

We have two RHx5 licenses/discs and two users. I lost my disc, but still have it installed on my PC and I have the license number. If for some reason I need to reinstall RH, could I use my colleague's disc and just enter my license number? Would that work and would it violate the license agreement in any way?

Thanks!
