Question

How to go to end of timeline using a button

I have 5 slides in my presentation, each slide has 7 buttons (previous/next page, play/pause, replay, TOC, and end) all of the other buttons are working fine, but I can't get the programming of the end button to go to the end of my timeline. How can I achieve that? each slide contains audio, video, and images.

Thank you,

Veronica

    Which 'timeline' do you mean, please?  There are many timeline in Captivate. Have a look at:

    Captivate'd Timeline

    The timeline in one of my slides. see attached image:

    All the other buttons are working fine. I can pause, replay the slide and move back and forward in my presentation, but the end button does not work. I need to go to the end of the slide when the button is clicked. I tried using the command: cpComdGotoFramAndResume = cpInfoCurrentFrame - # but it does not work. Hope this makes sense.

    Thanks for your help!

    What is the goal of going to the last frame of a slide? One of the easiest ways would be to go to the next slide and rewind a couple of frames.

      Go to Next Slide

       Expression cpCmndGotoFrame = cpInfoCurrentFrame - 3

    If you use cpCmndGotoFrameAndResume you are releasing the playhead immeidately and there will be no pausing at the end of the slide (I still don't understand why you want that).

    BTW None of your buttons at this moment is pausing the slide.
