Can I remove the TOC bookmark function?

Hi all,

I'd like to remove the bit on the Table of Contents that allows people to bookmark. As long as users are returned to the slide they left, I'm happy. And I think bookmarking looks confusing. How can I remove/make unnoticable?

bookmarkI'd rather not use a widget.

Thanks

Mike

Ditto, would like to remove the "bullets" in the TOC that when clicked turn to flags.

For HTML5 you can execute this JavaScript in the head of the index.html:. I will get rid of the icons and move the title text over.

window.addEventListener( 'moduleReadyEvent', function ( e )

{

var topIcon = document.getElementsByClassName( 'tocBookmarkHeadingStyle' )[ 0 ].style.visibility = 'hidden';

var topIcon = document.getElementsByClassName( 'tocSlideTitleHeading' )[ 0 ].style.left = 10 + 'px';

var bmIcons = document.getElementsByClassName( 'tocBookmark' );

var bmText = document.getElementsByClassName( 'tocText' );

for ( var i = 0; i < bmIcons.length; i++ )

{

bmIcons[ i ].style.visibility = 'hidden';

bmText[ i ].style.left = 10 + 'px';

}

});

Awesome- thanks TLCMediaDesign ! That works great for HTML5. I am also looking for a solution for Flash output, which I realize is asking a lot. If anyone has any info, it'd be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

I agree. The TOC bookmarks seem to serve no purpose. As others have noted, Captivate (or Captivate+ an LMS) handle the "real" bookmarking of returning a user to the previous point in a course they chose to exit.

Hi Lilybiri/MJPettitt, I would like to resurrect this thread and ask if there have been updates on how this 'bookmark' flag can be removed from the TOC, see image screenshot. We could not find any documentation relating to the use of this bookmark feature on the TOC. These flags appear when you click the circle next to the title of the slides. But eventually disappear when exiting the course. Any developments on this issue would be appreciated. Thanks.
