360 slide keep tick mark

Question

I am creating a project in Captivate. For the user, it's a 360 VR experience. In fact, it's a combination of 360 slides and 2D (normal) slides. The user is walking through the 360 photo's and on it's way, there are several hotspots. Sometimes there are hotspots that lead to 2D slides, then after finishing it returns to the same 360 slide.

Now, here's the problem. Captivate has the possibility to add green tick marks after clicking on a hotspot. This would work well in a regular project. However, when you go to a 2D page you leave the 360 slide for some time and return later. Unfortunately, something resets so the green tick marks are gone. In this way, it's not possible for the user to see what he has or hasn't clicked yet. The option 'Must see once' can also not be used in this way (same cause).

Now in regular slides there is an option to 'Retain state after slide revisit'. I can't find any option like this for 360 slides. Does anyone know how to fix this?

It is always important to mention the exact version number you are using. From your question I know that you are NOT using version 12 since that version has not the possibility to include 360° slides.

AFAIK the functionality you are looking for is not available. Same as in quiz slides, a lot is not really exposed. The hotspots may be multistate objects but you don't have control over those states as is the case for objects where you create the states and for which you have that very useful 'Retain state' command, nor can you change states for those hotspots. It is a very interesting request, why do you not log it as a request?
