Have you ever been taking your own course, stopped to make a quick edit and just wished you could resume from the last slide you viewed? I have, and I have been there more often than not. Half way through a course when I catch a trigger error or type, I stop fix it and then take the course again up to that point just to resume my previous review.
Not sure how much of a hassle it is to get a "Resume from this Slide / here" function but it would be great!
I like to publish the course as a web page and look at that in a browser for issues and fix everything I see wrong before I publish again. This way it saves time in the long run. I usually only do this when I'm testing the course as a whole.
It can be even more difficult to test slides in a course if you have the menu restricted. For this I'd suggest building a hidden testing menu that only shows when you click something like a hidden button. Then the menu can have buttons that link to all slides, or only the slides you need to test.

Hey Justin! Are you referring to reviewing your course in Preview mode?
You can select what slide you want to jump to while in Preview by clicking the Select option at the top left and choosing a slide:
Let me know if that's what you had in mind!
I am talking about the ability to edit a slide on the go while previewing. This certainly does help though. Thank you.
