I am new to Articulate and have a most basic question. I created a PPT presentation, then added in some Articulate interactions. However, when I play it back, the PPT slides (with just solid white background) look totally different from the Engage slides, which have the standard title bar across the top. How can I get the title bar to appear in the PPT slides for a consistent look?
In the past I have created a similer look and feel for my Powerpoint slides by simply creating the header bars etc. in Photoshop/Illustrator and placing them in the Master Page.
For a more advanced way of doing it, I created individual Flash files with all the "bounces" and "fly ins" of the title bars/buttons as per the Engage files and simply created the finished screens as individual SWFs and imported these to Powerpoint.
Yes it does - thank you. I was hoping there was a way to insert a blank (non-interactive) Engage slide, bit it sounds like you simply have to re-create the look elsewhere if you want visual consistency in a non-interactive page. Thanks so much!
Hi Karla - you might find this PowerPoint template helpful... it contains an Engage-type title bar and you can use it for your course slides to make things look a little more consistent with your Engage interactions.

Hope that helps a little.
