Captivate 8 - button and click box actions won't work?

Sure. In a responsive project, I have two slides. The first slide includes a click box, assigned the Go to Next Slide action, and a button, assigned the Show action to display a circle shape, which is hidden by default. When I preview the project using F10, or using F11, neither the click box, nor the button are responsive at all, and there is no other feedback.

When I create a NON-responsive project, all interaction objects, including buttons and click boxes, work fine.

Is there something I need to know that's extra special about responsive projects that affect interaction objects?

I hope I'm just doing something silly without realizing it.

BUT, when I publish the project, the interactions work fine. So, the problem is that they don't work when previewing.

Now I'm sure there is something I need to better understand about previewing responsive projects.

I'll keep experimenting and in the meantime, any guidance would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

Well, that seems awkward to me. In my test responsive project, with one button and one click box, both interaction objects work properly when I publish the project to a webserver. They do not work at all when I select one of the preview options. Are you saying that's because the preview for responsive projects does not actually generate html5 content? When I view the source, it's clearly not like the source that's created when published out to a webserver.

The preview options are different between responsive and non-responsive projects:

Non-Responsive                                          Responsive

This supports what you stated, but I just want to be clear:

Does this mean that the only way to test the functionality of every button and click box I add is to produce the whole project out to a webserver?

If so, that seems like a lot of extra work -- but maybe not.

I just thought it was peculiar.

No, that didn't work either. However, the page source looks a lot like the page source generated on the webserver.. It does make sense to me that Edge Inspect would be a sensible way to preview. I'll do some more testing around that.

Thanks!

Actually, I've been displaying previews in Chrome, where I was unable to get the buttons and click boxes to work. But that got me thinking. When I copy the URL of the preview location (localhost....) to my IE9 browser, the buttons and click boxes work as intended!

So, I'm persuaded now that this is really a browser issue.

Other thoughts?

Ah! That patch worked and I can now preview in Chrome with no problem.

Thanks!
