Capturing screenshots
When you are recording a project, you can set Adobe Captivate to automatically capture
screenshots or you can capture them manually. If you decide to record automatically, Adobe
Captivate snaps a screenshot every time you take an action such as clicking a button or menu.
(Adobe Captivate contains a feature that plays a camera shutter sound each time a screenshot is
taken to help you determine exactly when shots are captured.) If you choose to record manually,
press the designated capture key (the default key is the Print Screen button on the keyboard) each
time you want to take a screenshot.

You can also use both techniques together; simply select the auto-record option and let Adobe
Captivate take screenshots, but if you need a screenshot during the process, press Print Screen as
necessary.

Additional slides
If you are capturing additional slides to add in or at the end of a project, the same options are
available as the ones you use for recording a project. You can have Adobe Captivate capture the
slides automatically, you can capture manually, or you can use a combination of both.

Capturing screenshots in full motion
If you are recording a project or additional slides that contain drag-and-drop movement, mouse
wheel scrolling or drawing (for example, in a graphics program), Adobe Captivate can record
those special actions at a higher frame rate so the actions flow smoothly and look realistic. This is
called full motion recording.

If you are automatically recording a project or slides, you can have Adobe Captivate automatically
capture any mouse wheel action, drag-and-drop motions or drawing in full motion. Adobe
Captivate will automatically start to capture frames at a higher rate any time you click on an
object and drag the object or start drawing. When you stop dragging or finish drawing, full
motion recording ends and regular recording begins again.

If you are recording manually, you can control when full motion recording begins and ends. To
start recording in full motion at any time, press F9 and to end full motion recording, press F10.

Text captions
Text captions are text created during recording in the Demonstration and Custom modes. Text
captions appear on a slide within a project. Text captions are a way of “talking” to viewers and are
frequently used to point out certain areas on a slide, explain concepts, or give viewers more
information (e.g., a phone number or website address). As with recording, text captions can be
created automatically or manually.

If you are auto-recording a project or additional slides, you can have Adobe Captivate
automatically create text captions at the same time. Text captions are generated for various actions
such as selecting a menu or pressing a button. For example, if you record the action of selecting
the File menu, Adobe Captivate automatically adds a text caption that reads “Select File menu” on
the same slide. After the text captions are created and placed on slides, you can edit the text or
change formatting at any time.
