Hi all, I'm developing a course in Adobe Captivate requiring me to add an interactive video with overlay slides as in-video questions and also add seek bar to the interactive video, but that is not possible now. can someone please help with this issue?


Thank you.

    I suppose by 'seek bar' you mean a progress bar like you have available in the project playbar? Although it is possible to use Effects to show such a progress bar on slide level, it will not act the same: it will show the progress but will not allow you to scrub to another location.

    However interactive video has bookmarks which you can use to create a navigation menu. Have a look at this example video where I created such a menu and even more options:

    Custom Play/Pause button

    Personally I think this approach is more user friendly than a simple scrub progress bar.

    I'm looking for an interactive progress/seek bar like this example https://h5p.org/interactive-video

    is something like this possible in captivate?

    You can use the bookmarks and overlay slides, and eventually add such a visual progress bar, but it will not be able to scrub that bar. Did you at least watch the interactive video (which was created with Captivate functionality) using the link I posted in my previous comment?
