I am wanting the clients to see the menu but not be able to click on it. But when they have finished the page it changes colour so that they know they have completed it.
I want to the user to have an idea of how much longer they have in the education but not be able to click on it .
If you are using the in-built menu on the player, I don't think you can make it 'view only' and prevent the user from clicking on it.
You can however build a custom menu that is triggered from the slide master as per the attached example.
Here, I have added a True/False variable for each slide and set the initial value to False. I have then added a trigger to each slide to adjust the variable to True when the timeline starts.
On the slide master, I have;
Added the menu on a new layer
Added a button to the base layer to show this menu layer when the user clicks on it
Added each menu item as a shape and created a custom 'viewed' state where the text is black to indicate that the slide has been viewed
Added a trigger to change the state of each menu item to 'viewed' when the timeline of the menu layer starts on condition that the respective variables are equal to True
