I know that Catalyst is a gateway into the programming details that developers enjoy, but I would love to suggest a stronger workflow set borrowed from Adobe Captivate in Catalyst.

 

My group (in a large 10,000+ company) really understood quickly how to use Captivate to do some interesting things.  We did NOT use Captivate for online learning and other main uses for Captivate.  We used it to re-create GUI's from some of our products so that people could tour the products through their browser.  This was not really a main use for Captivate as the tree/hierarchy view fo the "slides" in Captivate were an absolute mess once we were done....but the product worked, worked well, and people comign from an openoffice/powerpoint background easily understood the notion of linking sections on a "slide" to other slides and vice versa.

 

We created static GUI's through Captivate, and that kind of ease in Catalyst to dynamic data would be really great.  I am not really giving a specific exmaple of how to do this, but castering to the mid-level corporate person who understands nothign about programming, but does have logic and technical experience at their command would braoden Catalyst immensely.

 

Thanks!
