Restricting navigation in Captivate 9

I'm doing a project, and I want to incorporate a sense of interaction and decision making with the learner. I've created scenarios and certain decisions progress those scenarios. How do I restrict click navigation on these scenario slides (to force the learner to have to choose a decision). For example, I have a slide that has a description of the scenario with three decision choices to choose from, however the user can click anywhere else on the slide and the slide advances. How do I stop this?

    To prevent stray clicks on a slide from progressing the course, add a 'Click Box' interaction, and set it's action to "No Action."

    Resize it to the size of the stage, and move it in the timeline to be the lowest layer, and the expected interactions (being above it in the timeline) will still function.

    Sorry, but having interactive objects stacked and at the same location, can lead to lot of issues in my experience.

    How did you set up those interactive objects which you use for the choice of the scenario? Are those click boxes, buttons, shape buttons....? Or do you use a radiobuttons interaction? In the first case, how many attempts did you allow?
