Anyone here use Captivate?

[Potdar, Deepali]

Thanks, Rick. That is a bummer. So I think you're suggesting that I
create a "stockpile" of customized captions with arrows in a few
different places, so I have more to choose from and at least they're
somewhat customized?

Thanks for the link and the advice.

Hi again Deepali

This isn't possible in Captivate. Captivate doesn't provide any drawing 
tools to use. However, with a bit of creativity, you could certainly
create 
a few different arrow images that could be strategically placed and
combined 
with other caption styles and whatnot.

For creating your own customized caption styles, try the following link.

Ok- I realized I should just send one of my questions here- the most
important one-- does anyone know how to "draw" in Captivate? I do not
want to use the pre-set captions that have a little pointy arrow-like
tip. I actually want a caption with an arrow that I draw, going from the
text box to the place the user needs to click...

Thank you for any help!
