WHAT'S NEW

Record voice-over narration at the time of capturing the screenshots for your new movie.

Record voice-over narration whilst previewing and editing your movie.

Translate your movie text and distribute your movies internationally!

New in Demo Builder version 5, the Localize Wizard allows you to update the language of your movies for international distribution by exporting your movie caption text (Balloon, Note, Text etc.) which you then update with text in the desired language.

When playing a movie, the following additional PlayerBar keyboard shortcuts are now available :

Note: These keyboard shortcuts are always available during the playing of a movie, whether you have selected to display the PlayerBar or not.

Two additional options for your Balloons, Buttons, Notes and Texts have been introduced in version 5 to make it even easier for you to create great movies and demonstrations…

Maintain consistency of 'look and feel' at a single click! For Balloons, Buttons, Notes and Texts you can now apply your chosen font style/formatting to all objects of the same type using the enhanced font properties editor.

Demo Builder version 5 introduces new events for your interactive objects(Buttons, Click Zones, Edit Zones) to give you total control over how your movie behaves in response to user actions. Each individual Event now has its own TimeLine so that you can precisely control the separate and specific sequencing of display and behaviours for that event.

For each of these events, you can direct the desired behaviour of your movie by adding an Action to take and/or Audio to be played (including voice-over narration). For Click Zones, in addition to the above actions and audio, you can also add short Animation Effects to be applied when the specified event occurs. These Click Zone effects can also be 'looped' to continue for a set length of time.

Additional actions for the events of your Interactive Objects (Buttons, Click Zones, Edit Zones) have been introduced in version 5 to make it even easier for you interact with you users and give you full command over the behaviour of your movies…

What do you do when the movie is over? Demo Builder has all the options with 3 new actions added in version 5.

Now Demo Builder can check your users' responses for correctness character-by-character.

New transparent border style for Edit Zones - for when they have to blend into your scene 'invisibly'. (Combine them with the new OnRollOver event for truly stunning results!).

New soft style for your Balloons and Notes to make them really stand out from the crowd!

You can choose from either Enter or Tab to accept and validate user entry.

With Demo Builder 5 you can now have Notes automatically inserted into your scenes if 'special keys' are pressed at capture time. For example, if F5 is pressed Demo Builder can automatically insert a Note with the text "Press F5 key".

Animations have been redesigned and even more functionality added! More animation categories (all with subcategories), choose from more colors and set the direction of motion for your animations.

Demo Builder does your work for you! During recording, Demo Builder can insert Ballons in the right place with the right text that best describes the action in your application.

The export interface has been improved with the addition of new export formats :

• Standalone - Windows,Linux,Macintosh platforms Create an executable file that can be run 'standalone' on Windows, Linux or Macintosh platforms.
• Image files Export your demonstration as a sequence of images and view them using the simple navigation buttons.
