I am using Captivate again after many years, and, of course I'm looking for tips and tricks all the time. This seems a good place to list the useful ones I find. Then I can come back to them and you can take advantage of them too.  (Oh, by the way, I'm using Captivate 5.5, but if you have a choice, go to 6.0. Worth the upgrade in my opinion because of how it works with PowerPoint and grouping. You do need grouping.)

Today, I'm leaning about Advanced Actions

Video. Use advanced actions to play audio on the decision screen only the first time learner visits the screen. I'm coming back to this one when I have time to actually create one too. Today I'm after pretty basic stuff.
