How can I stop running drag & drop slide, that user have unendless time?

Question

Hello! I'm using Adobe Captivate 8.0.1.242 and I've created a Drag & Drop Slide. The Duration of the slide is 60 seconds. Now I would like to give user the possibility to solve the quiz without time Limit. I use the flag "stop after" and put in 5 seconds. But in Background the time is running. And when 60 seconds are over the slide automatically Hand over to the next slide. Would you mind sending me a tip? Thank you very much for your efforts in advance.

No need to set that slide that long, check the Timing Properties panel and you'll see that each D&D slide pauses already at 1.5secs. Too bad that the pause is not visible in the Timeline panel. Totally unnecessary to create a file with such a long duration, frames after that pausing point will simply not be important at all.

As for timing real time, you could use the Hourglass or Timing interaction. I have only an example of the older Timer widget on my blog, but you can read a little bit about the new interactions in this article, where you also can download the list with interactions: Tips - Learning Interactions - Captivate blog
