Is there a Volume Control widget for HTML5 projects in Captivate 8? How does articulate do it?

Is there a 3rd party Volume Control widget?

So It looks like "there is not a volume control" that Captivate 8 can when publishing to HTML5.

Articulate - 1

Captivate - 0

I need/have to use Captivate because of my company. So this is a disappointment.

This next year my company will reevaluate what tools we are using.

Adobe Captivate will need to change to complete.

Articulate has the volume control built into their player. 

I think there might be one of the Captivate skins that has a volume control as well, but it's a long time since I looked.

Hi there

"Adobe Captivate will need to change to complete."

I'm assuming here you meant to type "compete". But that's the nature of any upgrade, no? I'm sure that Captivate will change.

For what it's worth, I was toying with creating a simple audio player. Captivate does offer a way to increase the volume and decrease the volume using Advanced Actions. It works for SWF output. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work when Captivate produces HTML 5. I didn't test with Responsive output.
