We are pleased to announce that ActivePresenter 2.0 is now available.

ActivePresenter is still available in three editions: Free, Standard and Professional.
For a complete list of features of each edition, please see the Feature Comparison table.

ActivePresenter 2.0 is packed with new and improved features that help you work faster, increase the quality and attraction of your project output formats.

Here are the top new features and improvements of ActivePresenter 2.0:

Capturing:
 

  • Fix bug that cannot capture right mouse click of some applications.
  • Correct size and position of actions when capturing Microsoft Office Excel.

Editing:
 

  • Timeline Panel: Manage timing properties (start time, duration) of slide, slide object easily and visually.
  • Insert objects to multiple slides: allow changing object properties before inserting; auto snap balloons, hints to default action…
  • Insert slides from images: allow inserting images as image objects instead of slide background images, so that you can edit them easily.
  • Save slide and slide objects as images: handy feature which saves time for you.
  • Define text margins for custom template balloons, hints in the Library panel easily and visually by dragging handles.
  • Support Microsoft Global Input Method Editors (IMEs) better in Text Editor dialog.
  • Indicate audio recording with amplitude indicator.
  • Enhance User Interface.

Exporting:
 

  • Flash Simulation: an easy online distribution and access format, based on industry leading Adobe Flash platform.
  • SCORM Support: Export to SCORM compliant package, an international e-learning standard. Therefore the output can be run on most Learning Management Systems (LMS). ActivePresenter supports both SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 standards.
  • Microsoft Office Excel: an alternative document format for your selection.
  • Add mouse cursor movement, change behavior of hint objects more properly (show hint when the mouse hovers on hint icon) in AJAX/Flash simulation.
  • Reduce video and FLV exporting duration considerably, especially for projects which contain audio objects.
  • Allow changing the quality of video and FLV directly, instead of setting technical parameters such as bit rate… Hence, you can get desired output movie easily without multimedia skills.
  • Support exporting to custom size (width and height) in percentage of project size in all output formats.
  • Reduce output file size without quality loosing thanks to PNG image optimization.
  • Allow choosing a thumbnail when exporting Flash Video (FLV).

There are also unspecified bug fixes and lots of minor improvements.
