Animations and timings wont appear in Captivate 9

My animations and timing wont appear when I preview or publish  the course. I'm just using .png images and using the captivate animations offered. Has this happened to anybody?

    Correct answer Lilybiri

    You have two shape buttons (top of the timeine), which are pausing the slide at 1,5 secs and that is the reason nothing shows up.

    Understanding the timeline is one of the basic skills you need as Captivate developer, look at this article:

    Challenges for Starters - Captivate blog

    A lot of questions on this forum result from a lack of understanding of that timeline. I wrote a sequence of 5 articles explaining ins and outs of those timelines. For the pausing, have a look at:

    Pausing Captivate's Timeline - Captivate blog

    It doesn't matter if it is a responsive or normal project.

    What is the function of those two shape buttons, which appear for a very short time?

    Can you post a screenshot of the timeline of the slide ? How did you preview: best preview modes are In Browser or HTML5 in browser if you are developing a not-responsive project. After publishing, to test, be sure to upload to a webserver.

    Here's the screen shot. It is a responsive project. I published to my LMS as test and nothing shows up. I'm using a firefox browser.
