Objects not displaying after using Pause trigger

Aug 21, 2016

Hi Team,

I'm working on a module that has a few simulation videos where i want the learner to click on a button before the simulation continues. The module uses a square to highlight important areas of the screen

I am using the Pause timeline trigger and then a square object to unpause the slide.

I have this working fine on one slide but on another slide no objects show up and the second Pause trigger doesn't work. I am using similar shapes and triggers

Is this a bug?

Hi Jake

if you have it working on one slide then perhaps it's something else that is the issue.  Can you upload the story file - easier for someone to help you if they can work with your setup.

Just note the slide that is working and the one that isn't so folks can offer some suggestions for you.

Hi Wendy,

Thanks for your help as this is for a client i was trying to provide the story file without their video as it is proprietary software and figured out what may have been the problem.

It seems that i needed to extend the timing of the first pause object for a little longer than where the Pause trigger is ie i had the pause trigger at 17 seconds and the unpause button object ended there as well, once i extended the timing of the unpause button everything started to appear again.
