Hello,

Is there a setting button in adobe captivate that is multifunctional that shows & hides all the user interaction buttons. For example, when an XYZ button is clicked it should show cc, play pause, toc, etc together. When the XYZ setting button is closed it should hide all the other buttons as well.

    Not clear to me. The buttons you are talking about are probably the buttons on the Playbar? If that is correct, you can easily hide/show the playbar with a button. Use the system variable cpCmndShowPlaybar to do so. For a toggle button without a change in state you could just use one simple command:

         Toggle cpCmndShowPlaybar

      Hello Mam, 
      I didn't ask the question correctly. This is the exact question what I wanted to as for the settings button. In a 40 slides captivate project, there is a scenario where in a captivate slide there are total 4 buttons.

      1) Back, pause, next and a settings button.

      And in the last slide of the course there is a new slide created for settings. The setting slide has cc, toc, and sound on/button by which we can control cc, toc, and sound on/off for the whole course.

      2) When the user runs through the course if he wants the cc to be active, he will click the settings buttons on the normal captivate slides, by clicking the settings button it should take him to the settings slide which is the end slide of the project, if user wants they can enable the cc or disable the cc for whole course by clicking the cc button on settings slide like on/off. 
      3) The initial state of the cc should be off, when the main cc button in the setting slide is on the cc should be active through out the course. If off it should be deactivated and when user revisit the settings slide the audio and cc for only the settings slide should be visible but visible for all other slides. 
      4) How to write a advanced action for this?

      Corrections in the 3rd point I mentioned above: "when the user revisits the settings slide the audio and cc for only the settings slide should be visible but visible for all other slides". It was a typing error by me. The audio and cc should not be visible only for the settings slide, but for other slides, it should be visible.

      New point:

      To display closed captioning on all other slides the setting slide should also have closed captioning audio/text. Without closed captioning audio/text on the setting slide the closed captioning will not display on other slides. Is it possible to remove closed captioning audio/text from setting slide and display only on other slide by clicking the cc on/off button?
