The responsive eLearning workflow was added to Captivate back in version 8, and the Fluid Boxes workflow was added in version 2017. In Captivate 8 and 9, you could create responsive eLearning courses using the Breakpoint Mode. This approach, based on breakpoints, is still available in the Captivate 2017 and 2019 release:
- Breakpoints are the different layouts that are designed based on the viewport size of the devices your students use.
- Viewport size is the visible area (excluding the area covered by the address bar and other menu options) in the device browser.
You can use the Breakpoints approach if you have an older Responsive Project to maintain, or if you feel more at ease with the Breakpoint approach rather than with the Fluid Boxes approach.
Follow these steps to switch to the Breakpoint Mode in Captivate 2019:
- Create a new Responsive Project in Captivate 2019.
- Click File | Save, navigate to the Chapter 10 folder, and save the file as Breakpoints...
