Slides
Adobe Captivate projects are composed of slides. An individual slide represents one “shot” in a
project. As each slide is displayed, the project plays smoothly and any action (such as mouse
movement) flows seamlessly between slides. You can combine any number of slides to create a
project.

Much of the work you do in Adobe Captivate is done at the slide level. In fact, after you establish
certain project preferences and options and record the onscreen action, you will probably work
nearly exclusively at the slide level until you are ready to preview and publish your project.

Recording additional slides for a project
There may be cases in which you record an Adobe Captivate project and begin working at the
slide level, only to realize that you need to record a few more slides. In this case, you probably
don't want to re-record the entire project just a few actions. Adobe Captivate allows you to do this
by recording new slides and inserting the slides in an existing project.
