Captivate 6 now available Captivate 6 has arrived!!!!! I am so excited to now share with you captivate 6 with all its new really cool features. The best way for you to get to know this wonderful tool is to visit the captivate blog http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/adobe-captivate-tutorials and see the really cool tutorials on the new features. Having played with 6 I can tell you I will be pushing all my clients to upgrade as soon as possible as I personally do not want to be creating in older versions of csaptivate as this new version will not only save me so much time using the themes, but as I have said before many times, if you have to create compliance courses this version now allows for pretesting, making our life so much easier to teach people what they don't know, instead of boring them with what they do. Although I do not think anything we create in 6 could be boring with all the new actors and interactions now available. Also you must check out the new HD video recording now available with the ability to edit with transitions right in captivate. I am so excited and I could keep going on and on, but I ask that you at least download the trial version and have a play because as soon as you did, you will like me not want to use any other tool. Let me know your thoughts of this version and let me know what you do or even don't like of the new version. I am thinking of putting together a launch presentation in Sydney and will keep you posted on this. Cheers Jo

Tips and Tricks Don't be afraid to make a typing mistake whilst recording a software simulation. How often have been recording a software simulation and whilst recording you make a typing error and then stop the recording to start again to ensure the mistake isn't recorded? Well you need not have worried, as captivate gives you the ability to edit your typing text and replace it with a text animation where you can fix any spelling mistakes or change the text completely. Especially a great feature when you have to login to an application using your log in, you can come back and change it so your audience does not see your login details. All you need to do is go to the timeline and find your typing text. Right click your mouse and select Replace with Text Animation, and just like that you can now edit your text.

Adobe Weekly Seminars in an Aussie Friendly Time (almost) Well after some discussions with Vish and Pooja from the Adobe learning team I proposed that i host a series at an Australian Friendly time, this was going to be 2PM AEDT, but numbers were low so this was moved to 9PM AEDT. BUT, this is still better than 2AM in the morning! This new time means it also suits the EU market place as well... So, what is coming up - the first two have already been announced:
The third will be announced later, this one will be in April... The sessions are aimed at those coming into Captivate, or who want to learn some best practices when getting started on a project... Hopefully all goes well and i will see some members of the group there!

Article of interest
In October I was lucky enough to attend a seminar held at LearnX hosted by Bruce Hilliard, it was a very interesting topic on the human brain and how we perceive information through presentation. I was very impressed with his findings and subsequently purchased his book ‘Persuasion and Influence – The Science and Art of effective Presentation' and would recommend this book to anybody creating any eLearning as it has some great points and tips on creating effective presentations. Bruce is now sharing his knowledge in a newsletter and today launched his first edition and I thought I would share it with you and if you would like to continue receiving his findings then please sign up to receive the next edition as I am sure you will find all the information will be very helpful for your course creations. Click here to access the newsletter: Presentation Aids Pt1 Please remember I would love to hear how you are all going in your creations as well as any topics or suggestions you have for this user group. Let me know your thoughts. Cheers Jo
