Captivate & Flash Integration
Is it possible to do more than simple load integration between Captivate and Flash? I don't mean loading one file to the other application, I mean avoiding developer post-processing alltogether by writing to the API that's exposed when you trace the variables on an imported captivate swf.
Consider:
I have created a Flash content viewer that applies a custom selection UI to a series of captivate movies (E-Learning content). When one of those Captivate movies plays, it gives a series of assessment items to the learner. Once the learner has completed those items, I need the Captivate swf to communicate back to the content viewer what the completion status of this particular objective is. Now, tracing the compiled swf's object tree reveals dispatchEvent and dispatchQueue, so I'm fairly certain that there's some kind of event model sitting there. Does anyone know of any article, tutorial, or documentation item that explains what's under the hood and how to access it from Flash?
