Adobe Captivate 2019: beyond the essentials, 3rd ed.

Abstract

Adobe Captivate is awesome. But like most computer applications, it can misbehave. I've found that when Captivate gets sluggish on my computer or crashes it's frequently because I've got too many applications running and/or not enough system resources (limited hard disk space and/or memory are the primary culprits). In those instances, closing all nonessential applications solves the problem. However, there are times when nothing I do seems to help improve Captivate's performance (not even a system reboot). In those rare instances, I've found that resetting all of Captivate's Preferences cures what ails the program. If you need to reset Captivate's Preferences, you'll appreciate an obscure utility that ships with Captivate that will reset all of the Preferences for you. Prior to beginning the first module in this book, I encourage you to reset your Captivate Preferences so that your Captivate settings match those shown in the book.
