Add a new dimension of interactivity to recorded or streaming videos with overlay slides in Adobe Captivate. Mark any slide as an overlay slide and insert it anywhere on your video timeline allowing you to add additional interactive layers for improved learner engagement.
Overlay slides in an interactive video direct a viewer to a destination after completing an interaction in the video. For example, after a lesson, a viewer takes a quiz, and depending on the results, the viewer either proceeds further or is taken to another slide with remediation instructions.
