Changing rollover text for TOC and CC in play bar

Question

Is it possible to change the roll-over/tip text for the TOC and CC buttons in the play bar when publishing a project?

E.g. change TOC to 'Table of Contents' and CC to 'Closed Captions'.

In the Skin Editor it seems to appear correct, but in the published project its using the acronyms.

Published project roll-over/tip text.

Skin Editor shows correct Rollover text (above).

Once you publish the file to html5. In the assets folder, playbar folder, playbarScript.js, edit the tool tips in the js file with a text editor

Change 'CC' to ' Closed Caption'

and

Change 'TOC' to 'Table of Contents'

See bolded content below.

Remember to save the file.

Hi Cari,Have to tell you that I never use a playbar because it is only useful in a pure linear project, and I am on Windows.You bumped on one of the many differences between HTML and SWF output. The full tooltip, as you see in the Skin editor, preview which is clearly SWF-based, is not showing up for HTML output. I tried out several playbars, and it is consistent. I have no idea about the reason,. As David points out, you'll have to tweak the js file, which is bit cumbersome because it can only be done after publishing the course.
