Possible Bug - TOC button broken in playbar widget

I am having a strange problem where the desired behavior worked 2 days ago and no longer works.  I reinstalled Captivate to see if I corruped something in the program files, still broken.

Description:

When using a custom playbar widget and hitting the "table of contents" button, the table of contents doesn't appear.  The visual status of the TOC button toggles correctly.  The TOC still works from the 'standard' Captivate playbar.

Steps to recreate:

-Open new captivate project

-Add 4-5 slides

-Add any "playbar" widget to the first page (Captivate install folder/gallery/widgets/playbar)

-Set the playbar widget's timing to "display for rest of project"

-Open Project/Table of Contents

-Select "Show Table of Contents"

-Under "Settings" select

     - Style = overlay

     - Position = right

-Disable "Borders"

-Disable "Show Playback Controls"


Has anyone else seen this behavior?  As I mentioned earlier this worked a day ago so I am at a loss.

Thanks.

Hi,

Did you insert any other animation (swf)? From my experience, when stuff stops working like this it's because there is an exception that was thrown by the code. Fortunately, it's easy to detect. You just need to run the code in a Debug version of the Flash Player. If you don't want to replace your activeX or plugin, just download the Standalone Player. You can find the debug versions here. If there is an exception you will see a popup.
