How do I set the minimum time a slide/video is viewed in Captivate 9...

[adro75349996]

Hello!

I would like users to view an e-learning SCORM module, exported from Captivate 9 in HTML5, and uploaded to an online LMS that features a slide containing a video that I have inserted as a Web object. The video itself will stream from Vimeo or Youtube, for say 60 minutes.

I would like the navigation to only display after the video has hit the 75% mark - so the user would have had to have stayed on the slide for 45 minutes (60 * 0.75).

Obviously I could extend the timeline manually to the 45 minute mark (something like this: which is for a 30 minute odd example.

But is there a way to do this in code or via a variable/action e.g. Show button after 45 minutes has elapsed.

Any ideas or suggestions?

On side enter execute this JavaScript

setTimeout(cp.show("your button name", 2700000 );

I'm reviving a dead thread....

TLC or Lilybiri: Would either of your suggestions work if the timeline of the slide was only a few minutes long?

Could you explain exactly what you are trying to do and also which publish option, HTML5, swf or both.

The Delay command is in seconds, why do you think it wouldn't be functional if the timeline is a few minutes?

I am not using these functions now. I am looking through the forums to find new tools to use, including JavaScript (which I haven't done before).

Since the JavaScript appears to show the item after 2,700,000 milliseconds (45 minutes), I was curious if that would function properly on a slide that was less time (2 minutes long, for example). If the JavaScript would work in that example, this will be a JS function I will learn to use when I want a long time frame (other than extending the screen's time frame to 45 minutes, which seems unnecessary).

[TLCMediaDesign]

The JavaScript is independent of the timeline so it would work.

That's great to know! Thank you.

Since you are on Captivate 9, you can also use an On Enter advanced or shared action using the Delay Next Actions by.... command which is new in this version.

But since you apparently made that slide already so long, why not put that button at the end instead of at the start of the slide?
