Question

Adobe Captivate 9.0 Responsive web design

Dear All,

I am designing a Responsive Project in Captivate 9. I have customized all navigation buttons to control slides. All works fine.

When my slide is at the end of timeline and if i click on Play button, this moves to the next slide. I would like to pause the slide at the end of it. Only when i click on next button, it should move to the next slide. Could you please help me in this

    If this is to happen on each slide, this may be the quickest work flow:

    • Go to the main master slide
    • Insert a very small shape and check the option 'Use as button'; set alpha = 0 and stroke = 0 so that it is invisible to the user and cannot be clicked (very small and in a weird location, don't pull it out of the stage)
    • Check in the Options tab of its Properties that 'Pause project until user clicks' is checked.

    What is great about this solution: the pausing point of the shape button will always be at the end of each slide, using that master slide, whatever its duration. Be careful: some daughter master slides in the included themes do not have the main master slide objects. That is the case for the Title master slide. Insert a copy of that shape button on that master slide as well.

    I tried with that. This works similar to next button which also pause the slide at the end. My problem is, once the slide is paused at the end, If i click on Play button, slide automatically moves to the next slide. Can I control that? like disabling Play button etc. It would be a great help, if u give me solution on this
