Question

Playbar hidden, but appears for 1/2 a second, then hides

Captivate 7, Win 7

Hi,

I want the playbar on during my project, except for the first slide.

I have turned off the playbar on my first slide via the Action-->On Enter-->Assign-->cpCmnsShowPlaybar, With 0.

However, when the project is played, the playbar shows for the first half second of the first slide, then disappears for the remainder of the slide.

It looked like it took the first slide a moment to 'realize' it needed to shut off the playbar.

Any ideas?

thanks!

Which preview did you try? Try in webbrowser (F12) or in HTML-browser (F11). If you do see the playbar, add a short first slide (you can let it have a fade transition as well) and execute the action On Exit for that slide. It seems bit strange, because it is a very simple action.

Do you want the playbar to be hidden for all slides, or just for some slides? If you are on CP7.0.1 there is a dedicated command 'Hide Playbar as well'. But it is possible, because the project has to load, that you'd see the playbar for a small fracton of time.

If it is for the whole project, turn it off in Project, Skin Editor. Eventually turn off also the bottom border (or all borders) in that case.

Hi Lilybiri,

I want it hidden for the 1st, 3rd, and last slides. The rest of the slides need it.

That is strange that it shows for the first 1/2 second due to loading.

thanks for your help.
