Multi-Functional Button

Hello,

I'm fairly new to Captivate and I was wondering how do I make a button be a multi-function purpose. For example, I want a X shape to function to close the TOC when it opens and also exit the program as well. Is this possible?

OK, that is different. You will need to create a conditional action. There

is a system variable cpCmndTOCVisible, which is a Boolean. If the TOC is

visible it has the value 1, if it is not visible, the value is 0.

The conditional action will be like this:

IF cpCmndTOCVisible is equal to 1

Assign cpCmndTOCVisible with 0

ELSE

Exit

Sorry, closed too quickly. You can combine multiple commands in an advanced

or shared action.

What is the purpose of closing the TOC if you are exiting?

The function I want to work is, if they open the TOC menu I want the X shape to function to close the TOC, if no TOC menu has been open the X shape will function as a exit course.
