Change mouse click sounds on an individual slide
You can change the default mouse click sound that plays whenever the mouse reaches the end of its movement path.
For example, you can change from single clicks to double clicks to reflect the correct action in a workflow. You can
also suppress all click sounds.
1 Select the mouse object and then in the Property Inspector (Window > Properties), select Show Mouse Click.
2 Select Show Mouse Click.
3 Do the following:
• If you do not want a mouse click sound to play, deselect Mouse Click Sound.
• For a single-click sound (the sound of a mouse button being pressed once), select Mouse Click Sound and then
select Single Click from the menu.
• For a double-click sound (the sound of a mouse button being pressed twice), select Mouse Click Sound and then
select Double Click.
• To browse to an alternative sound for a mouse click, select Mouse Click Sound and then click browse button.
The Open dialog box appears, letting you browse to an mp3 file.
To preview the selected mouse click sound, click the Play button.
Enable the mouse wheel
When recording, you can choose to enable mouse wheel movement to initiate full motion recording. The project starts
recording in FMR mode when there is mouse wheel movement during recording.
1 In an open project, Select Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Adobe Captivate > Preferences (Mac OS).
2 In the Category panel of Preferences, expand Recording, and select Settings.
3 In the Automatically use Full Motion Recording for section select Mouse Wheel Actions and then click OK.
Rollover slidelets
In Adobe Captivate, a rollover slidelet is a space on a slide that displays an associated slidelet (a slide within a slide)
when the mouse is moved over the space. You can insert and display objects in the slidelet using the same procedure
as that for the slides.
For example, you can create a rollover slidelet for a state on a map so that the demographics of the state are displayed
when the mouse moves over it.
Note: You cannot create rollover slidelets on question slides or quiz review slides.
The following is further information about slidelets:
• A slidelet is always linked to a rollover slidelet and is created along with the rollover slidelet.
• You can insert most of the Adobe Captivate objects into a slidelet.
• You can place more than one type of object into a slidelet. The objects become visible when the mouse is moved
over the rollover slidelet.
• You can drag audio and movie files from the Library into a slidelet.
• If a slidelet times out while an audio or movie file from the slide is running, the file stops running.
