Create a Table of Contents (TOC) with Adobe Captivate

You can automatically generate a Table of Contents (TOC) for your Adobe Captivate project. You can find the hierarchy of slides in the project in the TOC. 

You can specify the position of the TOC for the main slide during editing. At run time, clicking the various headings in the TOC displays the corresponding slides in the main panel.  

The TOC entry corresponding to the slide displayed is highlighted in the TOC panel as the movie runs through the slides.  

A Status panel checkmark indicates the slides the user has completed viewing. You can configure the project for self-paced learners so they can start viewing slides from where they left off earlier.

Organize a Table of Contents (TOC)

You can change the hierarchy of the slides in the TOC. The reorganization affects only the TOC and not the order of the slides in the project. You can also choose to hide certain slide entries in the TOC.

Depending on your preferences, you can reorganize the TOC using one or more of the following procedures: 

• To move a slide to the next sublevel in the hierarchy, select Move TOC Entry Right. 
• To move a slide to a previous level in the hierarchy, select Move TOC Entry Left. 
• Select Move TOC Entry Up or Move TOC Entry Down to move the slide entries up and down.

Create a group

To create a group within the TOC, select a slide on the TOC, click Create Folder. Rename the topic in the TOC and organize slides under it. You can create up to five sublevels in the TOC menu. 

Remove an item from TOC

Select the slide or group under TOC and select the delete icon to remove an entry.

Customize the playbar

The playback controls, consisting of a playbar and a progress bar, allow users to control the slide when it's played. The playbar displays buttons that control the movement of a slide. 

To customize the playbar in Adobe Captivate, you can follow these steps:
