What's new in Macromedia Captivate

Macromedia Captivate provides major new features and enhancements, including the following:

Timeline

Instant preview

Improved capture mechanism

Easy audio editing

Add Captivate interactive simulations to Macromedia Breeze

Edit Captivate movies in Flash

Improved quizzing functionality

Leverage SCORM 2004 packaging and runtime communication.

Output high quality printed documentation and handouts

Usability enhancements (Start page, snap to recording size, simplified recording dialog, recording modes, etc.)

Caution: When opening a Captivate project created with RoboDemo, note the following. Projects created with RoboDemo versions prior to version 4 use a .ncp file extension. RoboDemo 4 and 5 projects use the .rd file extension. Captivate upgrades older projects (those using the .ncp and .rd file extensions) as they are opened in Captivate and gives them the new Captivate file extension of .cp. Captivate also saves backup files of the older projects in the Backups folder. These backup files are saved before the conversion occurs, and you can open the files in RoboDemo.
