If you've ever used traditional screen recording software to create
product demonstrations or created custom simulations on your own, you
know what an enormous task it can become. Not so with Macromedia's
recently renamed and enhanced software, Macromedia Captivate (formerly
RoboDemo). By capturing your actions as you use a program, Captivate
eliminates the need to create custom graphics for each step--which in
turns means no massive video files at the end of the project.
Macromedia Captivate automatically records all onscreen actions and
instantly creates an interactive Flash simulation. Point and click to
add text captions, narration, and e-learning interactions without any
programming knowledge. Veteran author Tom Green understands that this
is big news for anyone creating online training, product demos, e-
learning applications or user support systems--which is why in these
pages he provides a super-quick start for a super-quick tool! After
introducing you to the Captivate work environment, Tom uses simple
task-based instructions and loads of visual aids to help you progress
through chapters on creating and modifying Captivate simulations;
using frames; adding objects, captions, audio, interactivity, and rich
media; using PowerPoint with Captivate; integrating Captivate with
Macromedia Breeze; Captivate and Flash; and more.
