Captivate 2017 closed captioning exit button

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum, and I've created a custom toggle button to turn closed captions on/off using the system variable cpCmndCC. When learners click my CC toggle, I have the CC button change states based on whether captions are on or off, but the CC button doesn't change its state if the learner clicks on the little exit button in the top-right of the caption box (see image below). I need to figure out how to either remove that little exit button or make it communicate with my toggle button to change states when clicked.

Thanks in advance for any help!

You can add this CSS to the assets\css\CPLibraryAll.css

#ccClose{

display:none

}

You can also create a CSS file and include it in the templates.

I would like to double-check but there is a problem. That first release of CP2017 has a bug, which can mess up a custom toggle CC button. Since I have a hotfix for that problem, I cannot check how it works for your release.

I don't have CP open at the moment but responding because...in a previous product we customized the 'button in the top-right of the caption box' with our own icon. Is that still possible?

if so, you may not be able to remove it entirely but could make it a transparent PNG or a 1-pixel image so it's almost invisible.

If folks know its there, they can still click it, but if they don't know it's there....would that almost solve the problem?
