Nicole,
Another very creative and informative article. One question... when using Hotspots, is there a way to pause the video? As I clicked on areas of the equipment, I started reading the text, but the video continued and I had to watch it again to check out all the Hotspots.
Thanks very much!

- DanielJovanov-a6 years agoCommunity MemberWhile Nicole gets to that, I'll try to answer here. I'm just going off the top of my head, but I believe you can have a trigger that pauses the timeline (hence, the video) for you when the playhead of the timeline reaches a cue point that you put in that timeline. From here, you can have a trigger that resumes the timeline when you click on a trigger, hence resuming the video. Maybe this isn't a perfect solution for you, but I hope it gives you an idea

Thanks very much for your suggestions. I'll give them a try in conjunction with the Hotspots!
- NicoleLegault16 years agoCommunity MemberHiya Marty! Always nice to see your friendly and familiar face here in the community. In that example, I purposely left the video playing even when the hot spots are clicked, to show something different, but you definitely could pause it, as indicated by Daniel!
You could add a trigger that when the Hot Spot is clicked, it pauses the timeline. Then, on the rectangle pop out with the text/info on it, you could add a "Continue" button that the learner could click to "Resume the timeline" and the video would keep playing. Hope this helps!! :) PS Thanks Daniel for chiming in with your helpful suggestion!- MartySimon-82d46 years agoCommunity MemberNicole, you are the best! Still miss your Flirting with Elearning blog, but I suppose you're quite busy with this wonderful community. Appreciate your response and suggestions.
