![]() I thought that with Fluid Boxes, a user was able to view and modify the layout of the content in selected screen resolutions, based on the positioning and configuration Fluid Boxes (size, orientation, how the content wraps, and padding). " You give control to Captivate over the layout in all screens." So far, I am not impressed with the Captivate functionality when compared with that of FrameMaker or Illustrator (it doesn't seem like the same company created Captivate). To me, that's "messed up" (lazy programming that is not user-friendly). In my opinion, users should be able to set the size of an fb using the properties for that fb, or have a guide for each fb where the size of that fb is displayed as the guide is moved (the adjoining fb would resize appropriately, but would not be displayed).Īs designed, the guides make a user guess the size of the fb until she gets it right. I haven't tried zooming in to make it easier. This is not a good design for adjusting the size of an fb imo. I understand this because a guide actually adjusts two fbs (the one above and below the guide). The guides do not tell the user the size of the fb when adjusting it. Maybe it's me, but if I want this fluid box to be 35 pixels high (no matter how many fbs are above it), the Guides do not make this easy. ![]() Say I am creating master slides in a theme (in the "Desktop" preview) and want the bottom-most fb on several slides to be the same (starting point) size as a placeholder for say a logo. This seem like the most simplistic functionality wanting the ability to have consistent fluid box borders in a slide where that fb would also have an (master) image placeholder. ![]() In normal mode (not master slide view) I can add a capture as the background of the fb that has the master shape border. I can add a shape with a border stroke and make the capture and image fill, but I cannot add an image to the shape fill unless I am in the master slide. I don't think that I can populate the fb with both with a shape, and also with an image (on top of each other where the shape is the background border and the image fills that border in the foreground). Say I want to have a fluid box (fb)with a border, and the fb is meant to be a placeholder for a software screen shot capture.
