Preparing your work
Before getting started, you will make Captivate ready by opening the required files using the following steps:
- Open or restart Captivate.
- Use the File | Open menu item to open the
Chapter03/encoderDemo_800.cptxfile situated in your exercises folder. - Open the
Chapter03/drivingInBe.cptxproject in your exercises folder.
If you are using the default interface mode (as described in Chapter 1, Getting Started with Adobe Captivate 8), restarting Captivate should reset your workspace to the default interface. If you are using the advanced interface mode, be aware that the screenshots of this book as well as the step-by-step instructions have been made using the default interface. The procedure to switch back to the default interface mode is described in Chapter 1, Getting Started with Adobe Captivate 8.
Tip
To ensure maximum accuracy between the files you work with and the exercises described in this book, make sure you use the files from the Chapter03 folder and not the ones you created in the previous chapter. During the exercises, feel free to experiment with the files. You'll have a fresh set of files to work with at the beginning of each chapter.
