Captivate 8, HTML5: Unable to drag objects using the index.html

kberryman_mlink Nov 10, 2014 2:04 PM

Using Captivate 8 and publishing to SWF and HTML5. In the published index.html file, I'm unable to drag anything in my drag and drop interaction.

Disabled Master Slide Objects on Top
Accept All disabled in Accepted Drag Sources
Set opacity of drop targets to 0%

The interaction works in the swf version of the course and the [project_name].htm file, just not in the index.html. When previewing in the browser from CP8, the interaction works, but not when previewing HTML5 in the browser.

Is there something I need to do to make the drag and drop interaction work in HTML5? Something I need to activate? Edit in the code?

Thanks,

Kelly

Are you talking about a normal or a responsive project? Did you install the
update to 8.0.1.242?

UUpload to a web server and test from there.

I have not upgraded at this time, but I can if that will fix the issues I'm having with the published files.

To clarify, my project is NOT a responsive project. I'm just selecting HTML5 on the publish. And I am testing it locally, on our company server, and online. The drag and drop does not work in any instance of the index.html any of these locations.

When you say you are testing it 'online' do you mean from a web server? Testing from a LAN server is not going to work.

Try upgrading, one of the improvements was to drag and drop. It should work locally in your browser. Are your drag objects text or graphics, i've found the latter work better.

I am testing on a web server...it's unix if that matters. My drag objects are graphics and my targets are smart shapes.

Maybe your current project has become corrupted in some way. Start a new blank project with just one or two slides and add a very simple drag and drop interaction to that. See if that works. If it does, then your issue is located in your current project somewhere.
