Is there a way to disable the > button on the seek bar? I set the seek bar to "read only" but the buttons still work. I really only need the Next and Previous buttons and a visual of the status.
Hi there Judy! It sounds like you'd like to have a visual seekbar but not access to the play/pause or rewind buttons. Those buttons are a part of the player seekbar, and there's no way to disable them.
Maybe you could use a workaround, like a custom or "fake" seekbar. For example, I used a wipe animation on a rectangle lasting 6 seconds to simulate a seekbar on the slide here. Note: I'm sure yours would look a lot better than mine! 😆
I have a similar question with a twist. When I pause the timeline with a trigger, the slide will start if you click on the paly arrow. I don't want this to happen. I want the learner to have to click on a box or do something. The play button defeats the purpose. Can it be disabled or am I doing something wrong?

Hi Eric!
Could you remove the seekbar from that slide to prevent learners from clicking the play button after the timeline is paused?
