How to stop auto-advancing for one of the eLearning brothers Captivate templates?

Hi, I'm using the 21660 direct-blocks-of-info template and I deleted the checkmarks because they are not needed for my purpose. However, after I deleted the checkmarks, the slide audo advances to the next slide before users are able to finish clicking all the tabs. Is there a way to stop auto-advancing without the checkmarks? Thanks!

    Could you please post this question on the eLearning Brothers site? This is a Captivate forum, user to user, and it is very difficult to have an idea of the setup of all those extra assets in Captivate. I suspect this has to do with breaking an advanced (or shared) action, but not exactly where. If you take out any object that is used in an advanced action, the command for that action is no longer valid and will be replaced by 'Continue', which could explain the behavior. As a temporary workaround: do not delete the checkmarks but make them 'invisible' by changing their alpha to 0% if those are images, or by changing the color to the color of the background if they are characters.
