various visual elements for certain actions. For example, text captions
will be added whenever you:
Select a menu
Select an item from a menu
Click on a button
Click on a link
Change a value in a list
Select or deselect a check box
Open a new window or dialog box
Captivate can also be set to automatically include highlight boxes or
