How do I make a button to NOT stop my slide?

Community Beginner ,
Nov 02, 2016 Nov 02, 2016

So, I added some in-slide controls, firstly with click boxes but as my superior wanted them to have a hover effect, so I made them as image buttons. The thing with buttons is that I don't see an option to actually "not stop" the slide, so everytime it reaches the end, it stops and you need to advance manually (and that's not ideal, at least for the first couple of slides). I'm pretty sure there's an option to disable this and make it advance regardless of the button being there, but I'm not sure where it is.

Can somebody help? Btw, I'm running on the latest version of captivate.

You do not tell which version you are using? If it is 8 or 9, look in the Timing Properties panel and uncheck the option 'Pause after'

The timeline is the 'core' of Captivate, and you'll see the pauses on that timeline. I am sad that the Timeline is hidden in the newbie UI, thus many users ignore its importance. Here is a link to a very old blog post, but most is still valid:
