I'm working on a Captivate 8 simulation where there is a requirement that when the user presses Ctrl+D they can move to the next slide. It works fine in preview but does not work on Browser (as it is a bookmark shortcut). Please help!

    Your issue is most likely due to the fact that this shortcut is assigned to the browser. IE for example, opens the save favorite dialog.

    You would need to use JavaScript to override the browser. If you are using swf you would need an AS3 animation to capture the shortcut and override.

    If your customer specified that Ctrl+D was a requirement, and specified the browser, you'll want to ask them how they are supporting it's use within their environment, they may have that functionality turned off for their users.

    If your customer didn't require your simulation to run in a web browser, publishing to a stand-alone application will allow the simulation to work as designed: Ctrl+D would be recognized.
