The Timeline enables you to align objects easily. You can align objects to the playhead, the start of a slide, the end of a slide, another object, or a point in time. First, open the Timeline.
Open a Captivate project.
Double-click on a slide containing objects you want to align.
If it is not open already,
show the Timeline by clicking on the splitter bar . To expand
the Timeline, click on the display arrow.
Click on the black arrow.
Right-click an object on the Timeline and select Align to playhead.
Click an object on the Timeline and drag it to the left side of the Timeline.
Click an object on the Timeline and drag it to the left or right so that the left edge of the object bar aligns with the correct time in the header.
For example, if you have a caption that currently displays at the same time the slide displays, but you want a slight delay, click the caption, and drag it so the left edge aligns with 2s (a two-second delay) or 4s (a four-second delay) in the header. (Example)
The red arrow points to the left edge of the caption object bar aligned with the two-second mark on the Timeline.
