Drag and drop glitch - While user does the second attempt, control jumps to next slide.

I found it! I know this is years old, but if someone else stumbles upon this issue here is the solution. The one issue I know I can address is the jumping to the next slide when you don't want the slide to move.

Click on each destination, "Drop Target", in the D&D properties. Click the Format tab. In Effects, click Object Actions. Set each Drag Source Type action to "Pause". The Action will then show Stop project. Also, to avoid a user from adding more than one object to the Drop Target, uncheck Accept All, and select the Replace radio button.

This is Captivate 2019. Works in HTML5 in my testing so far.

Which version are you using? It is a German version, but I want to know the exact version number (under Help, About Captivate....).

For the correct answer: you can use the Success event to go to the next slide.

Do you use object actions in the setup of the D&D? Can you check the timing of the pausing button? Are all D&D objects on the slide from the start?

Are you publishing to HTML5 or SWF?
