Manual Advance in a Branched File

I have created a file, where the contents is available in multiple languages, each in it's own branch.  We have clients who, when they return to the training, want to fast forward and/or rewind to get to the material they want to review.  When branching is initialized, all of these controls, understandable, are disables.  Is there a way to add a button/widget, etc., to allow the user to click through the slides to get to where they want to go?

    Indeed, Branch aware disables both navigation by the playbar and by the TOC.

    You probably allowed a choice at the start of the project? If that choice is stored in a variable, you could use JS to store that variable and retrieve it when opening a new session. If that is not needed, why not create a custom menu which can be available on each slide (timed for rest of project on first slide) and which has a Jump to... action for each of the branches?
