Output graphics as a sequence of images

If you're licensed for a version of Captivate, you can output graphics as a sequence of PNG files to a folder which can be played by streaming solutions as an animated graphic. Captivate outputs each frame of a graphic as a separate image.  For example, if a graphic includes 50 frames, Captivate will create 50 images.

Notes

  • PNG files are static images and won't include animations that may be present in your graphics.
  1. Create a folder on your computer where you want Captivate to output a sequence of images.
  2. In Captivate's playout interface, click the Video Out menu and choose PNG Sequence setup.
  3. In the setup dialog, select the folder you previously created, enter a name for the project (the name won't appear in the output), and click Save.
  4. Click the Video Out menu and select PNG Sequence.
  5. In Captivate's Layers workspace, click a graphic's Play actions-btn-live.png button to play the graphic for its full duration and write the graphic as a sequence of PNG files. All PNG files are saved to the folder you previously selected.
