Rollover caption properties dialog box - Rollover Caption tab

Use this dialog box to design how the rollover caption will appear on the slide.

Rollover captions are unique. They consist of a caption and a rectangle (the "hot" area). Rollover captions appear when the user moves the mouse over the "hot" area at runtime. You can customize everything about a rollover caption: the location, outline, and size of the "hot" area, as well as the usual caption options.

Caption type: Click the drop-down arrow to select a background style for the caption (for example, blue pill or xpbubble).

Font: Click the drop-down arrow to select a font for the caption.

Size: Click the drop-down arrow  to select a size for the caption.

Color: Click to open the Color dialog box, from which you can select or create a color for the caption text.

Caption direction: Click one of the five caption directions. (Example)

Shown below are the five caption types for the "blue pill" caption style:

Display options: If you want, set additional options such as bold, italic, underline, and justification.

Caption text: Enter the caption text exactly as you want it to appear.

Apply properties to all rollover captions in the movie: Select this option to apply the changes you made on this tab to all the rollover captions in the movie.

OK: Click to accept changes made in this dialog box.

Cancel: Click to cancel changes made in this dialog box.

Apply: Click to apply all changes made in this dialog box. This option lets you test and view your changes without closing the dialog box.

Note: After you determine the caption content and style, you must set the rollover area.
