Safari Browser and State Changes

My team and I just spent a good chunck of time working on an interaction only to find that it would not work in the newest(er) versions of Safari. We had some advanced actions that changed the state of different objects. We tried building the states with imported images, and with captivate native drawing tools. None of the state changes called from the advanced actions would appear when viewing the interacton in Safari.

 

Has any one seen similar? Even better, found a work around?

We are using Captivate 11.5.4.613 (on a Mac)

Safari 15.6.1

 

The change state interaction worked fine on Safari 14.1.2

 

Our work aroud was to use a whole lot of individual objects and a lot of show and hides.

 

Thanks!

    You are still on an unpatched version. For Mac Big Sur you would need a higher 11.5 version, for Monterey you need 11.8. It is common knowledge that Safari likes to cripple a lot, like the iOS itself. Please try at least to update to 11.8 although I always embed a warning in my courses never to use IE nor Safari as browser. That is the beauty of HTML publishing, you would normally need a different version for each browser.
