I am using adobe animate to communicate with adobe captivate. I put an animation from animate into captivate. What I want to happen is after the interaction is done, I want adobe captivates timeline to continue.  I have tried using a number of codes but nothing is working. this is what I have tried to upause the timeline or make it play.

parent.cpCmndPause = 0;
parent.cpCmndResume = 1;
parent.window.play();
window.cpCmndGotoFrameAndResume = 5;

None of these works.

This works for going to the next slide:

parent.cp.goToNextSlide();

But I need the timeline to play. 

 

Any suggestions?

Hi, I just figured it out.

the code is

window.parent.cpAPIInterface.play();

It only took me weeks, and I blame adobe who was absolutely no help. I must of called the 3 times and did that crappy chat. They don't know [abuse removed by moderator]. They couldn't tell me that I needed to put "parent" in the code? Give me a break!!!

To add a animation to captivate you just need to save as an oam. I believe you cannot have any assets, and everthing has to be in one document.

 

Cheers
