The other day I kept on getting annoying “out of heap space” errors in Eclipse while running a memory intensive Java application I had written and it took a bit of searching to find the answer, so I thought I’d make a quick screencast that demonstrates how to increase the heap size of the JVM that Eclipse uses as well as how to increase the heap size allocated to your Java applications by Eclipse.

Sometimes you don’t want / need a flv PIP over the top of your table of contents. Instead what you’d like is a simple, small image file to sit above your TOC adding a nice finishing touch to your Camtasia Studio 4 Flash output. This screencast walks you through the xml edits currently needed to make this happen.

The .fla files and .as files for the new Camtasia Studio 4 preloaders are now part of the software installation. This allows owners of Flash 8 to easily customize their screencast preloader experience. In this screencast you’ll get a step by step walk through on how to quickly update one of the preloaders with a branded logo.
If you want to write a preloader from scratch this screencast also briefly discusses the preloader event object that is dispatched by the controller swf.

This screencast takes a look at how, with a few simple xml edits, you can customize Camtasia Studio 4 Flash closed captioning.
With Camtasia Studio 4 we completely revamped the Flash output’s quiz and survey capabilities and for the first time, IMHO, have quizzing which is aesthetically palatable and functionally robust.
This screencast highlights some of the new features, including:
1) Flow layout
2) Multiline questions and answers
3) Global, question and answer level feedback capabilities
4) Virtually unlimited number of questions and answers
4) SCORM 2004 and SCORM 1.2 conformant quizzes
