Starting at existing Captivate project from an existing PowerPoint presentation is a great way to get
a head start.
And ideally, if you simply want to mimic your PowerPoint presentation here in captivity, odds are
you'll want to include interactivity for your learners, allow them to branch off to various sessions,
and you'll also want to make it so your complete project is viewable on multiple devices so that if
your learners are watching your finished project on a computer screen, they will also be able to do
it on their tablets and smartphones.
It's called Responsive Project.
In that case, a better option is to start a new project, a black one that is responsive and then pick
and choose what you want to bring in from your PowerPoint.
You'll see the up here responsive projects.
This is same as choosing blank project, but responsive functionality will be enabled.
In other words, we will be able to add things like fruit boxes.
That means content that we add to our slides can be viewed on a computer screen, tablets and smartphones.
Things will adjust, will be fluid and automatically be optimized for the devices that it's being viewed
on.
So starting here with this selected and clicking creator will start a new blank project that is sponsored.
So first of all, just click on this responsive project and click on CREATE.
And you'll be taken to your first blank slide, not if this is your very first time creating a responsive
project here in captivity, you will actually see something different.
It will be a little tutorial that will pop up with a simple slide.
So just tell you a little bit about responsive project and the things you can do with different boxes.
For example, you can close that up the next time you go to the create a new responsive project like
I just did, you will get this one blank slide this durbar across the top now that allow us to preview
our project for various devices like the dropdown.
If I just click on it, I can change it to iPhone six, seven, eight.
I can change this to iPhone six, seven, eight, plus iPhone X.
We have different expectations here as we click on the background and we will leave text selected.
So we have start a brand new blank project I it will show up here as untitled.
There's the extension dot Cypriote X.
We are ready now to start adding content that can be interactive and fluid.
In other words, we are starting a brand new responsive project and ready to get going on the content.
