Custom Recoding Confidence Check

You have been asked to bookmark a website so it can be

accessed quickly in the future. The process of creating a

bookmark (a Favorite) varies depending on the web browser you

are using. For instance, if you are using Internet Explorer, you

could choose the Favorites menu, click the Add to Favorites

button and then click the Add button. If you are using Google

Chrome, you could click the Bookmark button and then click

the Add button. If you are using Firefox, you could choose

Bookmarks > Bookmark This Page. If you are using Safari,

show the Menu bar, choose Bookmarks > Add Bookmark, and

then click the Add button.

1. Using your browser of choice, use the Custom recording mode to create a

video that simulates the process of creating a Bookmark (Favorite) for any

website that you like.

Not sure how to proceed or what exactly to record? Use Captivate to open the

project named Bookmarking.cptx (you can find it within the

Captivate7BeyondData folder). Preview the project, and you’ll see that I’ve

created a video of the bookmarking process in each of the browsers

mentioned above. You need to do the same in any browser you want.

Forgotten how to record screen actions? See page 16.

2. When finished recording, save the new project to the

Captivate7BeyondData folder as CreateFavorite.

3. Preview the project.

Notice that there are text captions and interactivity, which is wonderful.

However, none of the captions contain end-of-sentence punctuation. While I

am not a fan of end-of-sentence punctuation, many corporate style guides

insist on end of sentence punctuation.

Believe it or not, it is possible to “pre-edit” the text captions and change,

among other things, the text that appears in the captions and how Captivate

treats end-of-sentence punctuation. You’ll delve into that next. This little bit of

wizardry just might save additional hours of editing down the road.
