Fill and Stroke
Fill Fill color for the rollover slidelet. To decide the degree of transparency for the fill color, select a value for the option
Alpha in the Color menu. The value of 90% is less transparent (more solid) than a value of 10%.
Stroke Fill color for the rollover slidelet.
Show Border Displays the border of the rollover slidelet. The border is not displayed if you disable this option.
Action
Stick Slidelet
The slidelet continues to be displayed even when you move the mouse away from the rollover slidelet area.
On Click Define the action to take when the user clicks the rollover slidelet by selecting one of the options in the menu.
Shortcut You can specify a keyboard shortcut for the mouse-click. Users can use the keyboard shortcut instead of
using the mouse. For example, if you select Control+Shift+Enter as the keyboard shortcut for the mouse-click, the click
is treated as correct (click within the box) when the users press this combination. If they press the wrong combination,
it is treated as a click outside the box.
Note: If your Adobe Captivate project is displayed in a browser, set keyboard shortcuts that do not conflict with common
browser shortcuts. For example, F1 is frequently used as a keyboard shortcut to display Help on Windows. The Control,
Alt, and Shift keys map to the Control, Option, and Shift keys on Macintosh® computers, respectively.
Timing
Display For The duration for which the rollover slidelet is displayed.
Appear After Delay between the first appearance of the slide and the first appearance of the rollover slidelet.
Hover Delay The time delay before the appearance of the slidelet when the mouse moves over the rollover slidelet.
Transition
Effect The transition effect for the slidelet when it appears and exits the slide.
In and Out The time (in seconds) for the fading effects.
Show Runtime Border When the mouse moves over the rollover slidelet, a border is displayed with the specified color.
