Replay Current Slide

Question

In the past, I have been able to add an image button and assign a standard Advanced Action to replay/restart the slide the user is viewing. I assign the cpCmndGotoSlide variable with rdInfoCurrentSlide and then Continue.

It worked in versions 5 and 5.5 but I think this is the first time I have tried it using a fresh, v6 project (not converted from an earlier version). It doesn't replay, it jumps to the next slide.

When i went to create the Action, I noticed that the rdInfoCurrentSlide variable - all the rdXXX variables, in fact - had been removed and relaced with cpXXX versions, such as cpInfoCurrentSlide.

Could there be a problem with the new variable? Am I missing something?

I think CP (depends on the exact version of CP6, check because it should be 6.0.1.240 or 6.1.319) translates rdinfoCurrentSlide to cpInfoCurrentSlide that starts with 1 instead of 0. Have a look at my overview of the system variables, link to be found here:

Try

Expression cpCmndGotoSlide = cpInfoCurrentSlide - 1
