Check out the quote content block and learn to use it in the all-new Adobe Captivate.

Note:

Adobe Captivate introduces content blocks, such as text or an image block, which contain components like text, image, or button. Play this video to learn more about content blocks and components.

A quote content block allows you to represent a quotation from any person aesthetically.

Add a quote content block

Select Add media blocks > Quotes in the left toolbar.

Insert a quote
Insert a quote content block

Change the properties of the quote content block 

Adobe Captivate lets you apply a design option, add a title, quotes, avatar, change the appearance of the content block, and more.

  1. In the Visual Properties panel, expand the Alignment and Spacing section.

    The Content Width slider and Horizontal Padding are linked in the Alignment and Spacing section. Moving the slider from the left side changes the left padding value, and moving the slider from right changes the right padding value. The same change is replicated in the Content Width slider when you change the left or right Horizontal padding values.

    If you want to add padding at the top or bottom of the selected content block, then enter the desired values for the Top and Bottom padding by changing the values in Vertical padding.

    Select the Autofit height checkbox to change the height of the radio group content block to fit the slide. If there are other content blocks on the slide, the content block adjusts itself to fit the slide's height.

  2. Select a design option. The Design Options presents pre-configured layouts with cleaner design elements to apply to the quote content block.

    For more information, view Design options in Adobe Captivate.

  3. In the Components section, you can change the following:

    • Title: Add or remove the quote's title.
    • Quote text: Add or remove the quote.
    • Quote start: Add or remove the quotation at the start of the quote.
    • Quote end: Add or remove the quotation at the end of the quote.
    • Avatar: Add or remove the avatar inside the quote content block.
    • Avatar name: Add or remove the name of the avatar.
    • Card: Add or remove the card around the quote.
    Note:

    You can align the components in the Components section. Hover over a component and select any option (Align left, Align center, or Align right).

  4. In the Appearance section, you can change the color settings at the content block level. Add the background color, border, and apply a shadow to shadow to the border. Select a solid color, linear or radial gradient, or add an image as a background.

  5. If you've enabled Card, you can change the card's properties, such as padding, background color, border, or shadow, in the Card tab.

Change the quote's text

Select any text in a quote block, such as title or quote text, and change its properties in the Visual Properties panel.

For more information, view Work with text in Adobe Captivate.

Adobe Captivate lets you select an avatar and change its appearance.

  3. Select an image and then select any pose.
