Question

Resetting a slide animation when the slide is replayed

Using Captivate 2019 and have a slide that when you enter it is playing an animation. After the animation plays if you want the animation to replay without moving to another slide first if doesn't work.  It has the same replay advanced actions as other slides with animations but it doesn't work here.  Could it be because the animation starts playing as soon as you enter the slide?

I was thinking maybe it needed some sort of counter to know to reset and play but I'm not sure.

What is that 'animation', please? Is it an imported animated GIF, a SWF (probably not), an OAM or even other animations?

Its an OAM.  Thanks I should have mentioned that.

You did try to replay by re-entering the slide? I stil use Edge Animate to create OAM's because it is a lot more user friendly than Animate CC (and works better with Captivate). Need some time to conquer Animate, makes things always so complicated because it is really aimed at game developers, not for simple animations.
