Captivate 12 - Simple Question? Progress Bar For Slide Videos

I have been really been trying to use Captivate 12 for new projects instead of relying on Captivate Classic. I am excited about the ability to import Closed Captions for videos into Captivate from Adobe Premiere.  However, I feel like I am missing something basic.  I cannot seem to find a place to activate a Progress Bar for a Captivate 12 module for a Slide Video like I could using Skins in Captivate Classic to allow users to navigate forward/backward without having to use the buttons.  I understand the difference between Slide and Event videos but I have to use Slide Videos so that I can add in my closed captioning directly in the module.  Am I missing something basic here? I was expecting to see it in the TOC and Playbar settings but don't see it?  There must be a way to allow users to move forward/backward in a slide video. Apologies in advance if I missing something right in front of me!  I am using Version 12.3.0.12. Thanks.

To the best of my knowledge, you aren't missing anything! There is no progress bar for a Slide Video in Captivate 12. 

But! you can add Closed Captioning to an event video (just labeled "video" in captivate 12). Just click on the video Once you load it up, and on the right hand side you will see "closed captions" and "edit".

Thans. I guess there is no progress bar at all with the standard playbar which is unfortunate.  I did not realize until after I posted that Closed Captioning does work with Event Videos which is good. We nomally use Slide Videos so we can use Overlays and track if people actually watched it. However, the ability to use Closed Captoning with Event Videos is definitely good as is the ability to import caption files. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

No problem! My team also likes the slide video since users can't skip ahead then. I do wish it had a progress bar at least, and the ability to scrub backwards. 

Lately, my team has just been uploading videos seperately into our LMS as a seperate lesson (workday learning), which has the progress bar and ability to scrub backwards (not forwards, which is good).
