    Hello and welcome to the forum,

    What do you mean? For branching personally I find the playbar not useful, because it will act as a control panel: Forward goes to the Next slide, Back goes to the previous slide, scrubbing the progress bar is just linear moving which is not what you'll have in branching situations. I never use a play bar in courses that have branchings.

    This same logic is used by Captivate: when you activate branch aware, the playbar is automatically disabled. Same if you use a Pretest, that will often be used to cause branching.

    It would be very confusing for the user if the play bar was there...
