Came across some good stuff over the past week. Usually I’m too lazy to blog about this stuff, but I gotta hand it to Microsoft – they suck at a lot of things, but Windows Live Writer kicks ass. Nothing else out there touches it.
So, without further adieu….
Resize the Slide Notes Window
Anyone who has recorded voiceovers in Captivate will appreciate this tip from the official Captivate blog, where they explain how to resize the Slide Notes window (yes, it is possible, in a roundabout way!).

Cool Buttons
The Captivate4.com blog has a post with ‘free resources’ that may be useful in your Captivate projects. Personally I think most of it isn’t all that great but the buttons are very good.

Using Advanced Actions
Thanks goodness we’re finally getting some good examples on how to use those pesky Advanced Actions. Here’s a great post from the aforementioned Captivate4.com blog titled “Using Advanced Actions to Store and Show a User’s Answers in a Quiz”.

Great updated information on Cap. 4. My dept. uses this rapid content tool often for our clients. Student Interactions (SI) are a big part of the over all learning and the addititions that Cap. 4 has over Cap. 3 is helpful in creating templates, and more custom like SIs.
I will share the refrenced websites with the team.
