About slides

Captivate movies are composed of slides. An individual slide represents one "shot" in a movie. As each slide is displayed, the movie plays smoothly and any action (such as mouse movement) flows seamlessly between slides. Put countless slides together and you have a full-fledged movie.

Much of the work you do in Captivate is done at the slide level. In fact, once you establish certain movie preferences and options and record the onscreen action, you will probably work nearly exclusively at the slide level until you are ready to preview and publish your movie.

Captivate has several different types of slides. You can include some or all of these slide types in a single movie:
