I have a client claiming you can put a photo where this play button is when the course is first opened in captivate 13. I have never seen an option for this. I know captivate classic and storyline have this option. Where do I find it in captivate 13?

    If you put an image in the Project Start preference, it will show up under the play button. 

    (The autoplay works for me, but it will bypass this image and go right to the project’s first slide.)

    One could set the project to autoplay so you don’t see the play button you show--and then have a photo as the first slide.

    Not sure why but when I turned on Autoplay, it doesn’t seem to do anything.
