RoundTrip Editing with Lectora® Inspire!

inspire

Lectora Inspire, the revolutinary authoring tool for multimedia elearning, has everything you need to create elearning all wrapped up into one amazing tool. The latest article in Learning Solutions magazine, Getting Started with Lectora Inspire guides you through the benefits of the new tool, such as roundtrip editing, and how to get started using Camtasia® for Lectora, Snagit® for Lectora, and Flypaper™ for Lectora.

Lectora Inspire seamlessly integrates with custom versions Camtasia®, Snagit®, and Flypaper™ so you can create engaging videos, interactive Flash animations, and customized images. The best part about the integration between these products is the roundtrip editing capabilities in Lectora Inspire. Roundtrip editing enables you to work from within Lectora Inspire, make changes to content in Camtasia, Snagit or Flypaper and have those changes automatically appear in Lectora Inspire. This saves time by eliminating the need to switch back and forth between Lectora and Camtasia, Snagit and Flypaper as separate and stand-alone products.

Now, you can add interest and interactivity to your courses with screen captures, video, or Flash without juggling multiple products or the need for design or Flash expertise. To read about the other Lectora Inspire benefits featured in the Learning Solutions magazine article, please visit the Trivantis blog.
