Captivate 8 - Click Boxes and Player Bar when filming in "Training" mode.

[MarrUser]

Whenever I film in Training mode I have the settings so that Click Boxes will automatically be added to the project; however, whenever I play back the slides which have the auto added click boxes, the player bar does not appear. I then have to manually replace the auto added click boxes. When this is done, the player bar appears again.  Seems like a lot of effort. Any ideas?

Can you explain what you mean by 'player bar' doesn't appear? Sorry, don't understand your question at all.

Let me try and explain better.

If i film in Training Simulation Mode and I have set to "Add Click Boxes on Mouse Click".  When I preview/publish and play those slides where the click boxes were automatically added, the player bar at the bottom of the project does not appear. See image 1 (no player bar at bottom of project)

Now, if I go back and REMOVE the click boxes (which were added automatically because I had set up my defaults to do so), and then MANUALLY add them back in (from the Interactions option), the player bar appears. See image 2 (player bar at bottom of project)

I hope that clarifies the original question somewhat.

That is a logical design to me, if it was not the case I would turn off the playbar manually. If you have a playbar, the user can just scrub with the progress bar and not learn anything at all. Training supposes that they can only advanced when having completed the action on each slide, whether it is clicking somewhere or typing a text in a TEB.

Thank you, that makes perfect sense.

Glad you understood my teacher's reasons
