Hi guys! my name is Tim Clark and I've just started my Articulate Storyline journey. I'd like to start by saying this really does look like an awesomely vibrant community as well as a great source of information.If I may, I have a few questions to ask you all.
Firstly, is there any way of being able to disable the ability to pause video footage?
Secondly, is it possible to pause/resume audio or video footage when using a Lightbox function?
If this is a repost I apologise in advance but any help or links to relevant forum entries would be a big help!
As far as pausing the video, I assume you are inserting a video from a file? You should be able to add a transparent shape over the item, or a hotspot, and this will stop users form clicking on the video itself and pausing it. Also, you can remove the video controls.
When using a lightbox slide trigger on a slide with media, it should pause when the lightbox slide is triggerd.

Hey thanks Emily, that makes so much sense now using Transparent shapes to block a function!
Glad to help Tim!
