Seekbar feature on iPad

Jun 23, 2014

Hello, I'm publishing training with 13'' presenter and found that I can't use Seekbar when it comes to this particular engage interaction on iPad.

I'm curious about why it is happening.

Please share information if there is anyone has encounter the same issue.

Hi Soogyung!

Thanks for the screenshot :)

From what I can see, you have the seekbar enabled on the Engage interaction and the course is being launched in Safari - so it seems to be HTML5 content. 

What I cannot tell is where this interaction is placed within your course. I do see that we've started working on an issue where this can happen inconsistently with Engage interactions when resuming and selecting "No" on the resume prompt. 

Is this what's happening for you? If not, can you tell me a little more about what's happening?

Thanks!

Hello Christine!

Thank you for looking into this issue.

This happens even though I choose "Yes" on resume window, And happens when I open the training at the first time as well.

This is the screenshot of standalone file(Explorer)

The seekbar works nicely.

And this one is html5(Chrome) -standalone

The seekbar doesn't work. The white progress bar doesn't show up.

I hope It could be some useful information.

Thank you,

Hi Soogyung,

I've been looking into this today and I did notice that Engage interactions require media on screen to display the seekbar. 

I used a Labeled Graphic interaction and inserted a video into a label. Testing via PC, the seekbar is showing up when I have the media open, but not when it's closed. 

In HTML5 on the iPad, the seekbar doesn't display for the media. 

Now, in your screenshots it looks like you're using a similar interaction - if not the same one. Can you tell me, though, if you have media playing on that slide or in that label? Just want to confirm we're looking at and using the same options. 

Thank you!

Hello Christine,

I inserted audio to each label in a engage file.

The slide(inserted engage slide) of pptx doesn't have audio. 

And...I'm using similar interaction as a labeled graphic interaction.

(Actually I did an experiment with a labeled graphic interaction, and got the same result)

I think we're using the same options except that mine doesn't have the exact same interaction.

Thank you,

Hi Soogyung,

Excellent. Thank you very much for the additional information. 

"And...I'm using similar interaction as a labeled graphic interaction.

(Actually I did an experiment with a labeled graphic interaction, and got the same result)"

Looks like the Labeled Panel behaves a little differently with media - is that the one you were referring to in your last post?

The seekbar for the Labeled Panel is actually working for me in HTML5 on the iPad:

Update 2 HTML5 Seekbar

Can you let me know if it's a different interaction that you're using, please?

The good news is that I've confirmed the Labeled Graphic's seekbar works correctly with HTML5 in the next update. If you're using a different interaction, I can take a look and see if that specific interaction type has also been fixed. 

Or, if it's easier for you. you're welcome to share the .INTR file here. Just keep in mind that files larger than 20 MB may not attach to the forums.

Thanks!

Hi Soogyung,

I had an Engage '13 Labeled Graphic tested in the next update and the issue still occurs. So, it may be specific to this interaction type. 

If you can confirm this is the interaction you're using, I can pass this information on to our Quality Assurance team for additional testing. 

Again, if you're able to share your file with us for testing, that will also help.

Thanks very much!
