Adobe Captivate Classic uses a default set of preferences for panning and other settings when recording or creating projects. You can customize these preferences using the various options available in the Preferences dialog box.

Panning

In movie-making terminology, panning refers to moving the camera while filming. In Captivate Classic, it means that you can move the recording area while capturing the slides.

Use panning when you want the recording window to follow the movement of your mouse pointer across the screen. Panning helps you capture events across a large screen even when the recording window is smaller than the size of the screen.

The following panning options are available in Adobe Captivate Classic:

Automatic Panning

The recording window automatically moves along with the pointer whenever you move the mouse during recording.

Manual Panning

You must manually move the recording window to the area where the next event takes place. In all other respects, It is like the automatic panning option.

For more information, refer the following articles:
