By default, Captivate creates curved mouse movements on slides for a more realistic, natural feel. However, there may be times when a straight mouse path is required. For example, if you create a movie in which the mouse must follow a straight line on a toolbar.
You can set the curved or straight mouse movement option for an individual slide, so your movie can have a mixture of straight and curved mouse movements.
Open a Captivate movie.
Open the desired slide in Edit View.
From the Slide menu, select Mouse > Straight Pointer Path.
A check mark appears next to the option.
Note: To change back to curved mouse movement, follow the steps above and select Straight Pointer Path again to clear the check mark next to the option.
