Question

How do I set the minimum time a slide/video is viewed in Captivate 9...

Hello!

I would like users to view an e-learning SCORM module, exported from Captivate 9 in HTML5, and uploaded to an online LMS that features a slide containing a video that I have inserted as a Web object. The video itself will stream from Vimeo or Youtube, for say 60 minutes.

I would like the navigation to only display after the video has hit the 75% mark - so the user would have had to have stayed on the slide for 45 minutes (60 * 0.75).

Obviously I could extend the timeline manually to the 45 minute mark (something like this: which is for a 30 minute odd example.

But is there a way to do this in code or via a variable/action e.g. Show button after 45 minutes has elapsed.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Since you are on Captivate 9, you can also use an On Enter advanced or shared action using the Delay Next Actions by.... command which is new in this version.

But since you apparently made that slide already so long, why not put that button at the end instead of at the start of the slide?

On side enter execute this JavaScript

setTimeout(cp.show("your button name", 2700000 );

I'm reviving a dead thread....

TLC or Lilybiri: Would either of your suggestions work if the timeline of the slide was only a few minutes long?

Could you explain exactly what you are trying to do and also which publish option, HTML5, swf or both.
