Lectora and Captivate
November 6, 2013 12:00 AM
Hi, I have a Captivate simulation that I need to launch in my Lectora course (V11) using a button that the end user will click on to launch the Captivate simulation in a separate browser window. Help! How do I do this in Lectora? What is the Action I need to create? Again Help! Thank you I tried looking in the Recorded Webinars and the FAQ, but didn't see anything.

If you're publishing swf out of captivate, you can drop the swf/html files both in the same web server directory (folder) as your published lectora files. In lectora you'd set the button action to "go to web address", enter the file name of the html file, and 'open in new window.'
i'm sure there are other ways, but that's how I'd do it.
You could also put the swf/video on it's own page, and when you click the button, you could choose the action of "Display in Pop Up Page" or "Go To" .....and in the "Open In" section, choose New Window (I like this one better, because I can use the little icon next to this feature to edit the window anyway I like).
Hope this helps!
