List with Effects in Captivate 5/5.5 - Thanks, Col!

  Col Day, AKA Colday213 (User Forums) asked if there was a list of Effects (in Captivate 5.0 and 5.5) available somewhere (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/858775?tstart=30). The answer was negative and promptly he proposed to add his 2 cents to the Captivate Community by the redaction of such a list. The list is ready, and he asked me to spread its access in our Community, which of course I accepted. The list is stored on workspaces.acrobat.com, either you watch it online, or you download a copy.  The format is Excel (xls). In the list you will find a short description of each effect, the standard duration of the effect and some additional (personal) notes (see screenshot).

 

For the motion effects, where you'll often find 'customizing the motion path' in the additional notes, if you are a newbie to Effects, check out this blog post: 

In case you are wondering: this is version 5, because.... Col asked me to give some feedback and  'fine tuned' it several times. Consider it as a dynamic list, Col is eagerly waiting for your comments: captivate@essex.pnn.police.uk. You can post comments on this blog as well. 

Here is the link:

Waiting for your comments!

Thank you to Col for this list. Very handy to see all the effects listed in one snapshot. Thank you to Lilybiri for helping to spread news of this list in our Captivate community.
Oh, I'd love to put my hands/eyes on such list, but I can't find it. On clicking the link, I'm taken to Acrobat.com, but the file is not listed there. Am I doing something wrong? Please help!
@viluvilu This is strange, you're the first to tell this, and the post has already been visited more than 300 times? Did you click on the correct link: it is labeled 'Effects in Adobe Captivate 5.0/5.5' almost at the end of the post. Since it is published you do not need to login, double-checked again and the spreadsheet is opening automatically and the download button is available top left.
You're right, I was clicking the wrong link. My apologies. And a bushel of thanks to Col for his generosity to fellow Captivators. His list is truly an excellent and (at least in my case) an indispensable tool.
