Software simulations aren’t about recording your screen and the steps you’re taking to accomplish a task. They’re great for short task-based skills but not ideal for learning new company software or more complicated processes that might span multiple objectives. You can ask questions such as the following.

Hi there, I’m creating software simulations and I’m completely frustrated at how Captivate simulation is not capturing/recording right click actions and the context menu. I’ve done more than 10 software simulations without having any problem with capturing right click actions and context menus.

I am using adobe captivate to record software simulation training, but the software is not on a computer, it is on an app. Only problem is that there is a lag about 25% of the time and it creates ghosting on the screen transitions. I am using Samsung Team Viewer to control the mobile device via the PC.

Let the learners team up and work on the problem. I call it the Kobayashi Maru of software training. This “impossible” problem helps the learners to work harder and really gets them to think through the software, not just the “how” but the why if you design the impossible problem effectively enough.

Experiencing eLearning

JANUARY 16, 2013

I don’t find developing software simulations to be particularly rewarding, for example, because there often isn’t a ton of creativity. If you start from a business problem, you should be able to show the results of training—increased sales, fewer errors, etc. A: Some jobs certainly offer more creativity than others.

The net result is that you cannot record the screen, either in software simulation or in video demo recording mode.     Restart Captivate and see if you can record a software simulation. You should now be able to record screen actions on your high-density monitor with no problems.   And that’s it.

If your eLearning lesson is interactive (perhaps it's a software simulation with a quiz, or a soft skills lesson with buttons for navigation), the learner who navigates via the playbar instead of the interactive slide objects can derail the lesson. The most common location for the playbar is below the video or simulation.
