Pause timeline when closed captioning toggled on?
By
Todd Troost
Hello everyone:
I am fairly new to Storyline and having some serious issues pausing the timeline.
I am creating a course with narration on one layer, closed caption text on another and a layer that pauses the timeline.
Base Layer with narration
When the CC On button is clicked, it reveals the layer below. The CC Off button hides it. The pause button reveals a third layer (see image) that pauses the timeline.
Closed Captions layer
Paused timeline layer
The problem is that when the timeline is paused and the CC On button it clicked, it reveals the CC layer and hides the layer that pauses the timeline. I need to reveal closed captioning while the timeline is paused. Below is a short video that shows is happening.
Does anyone know how to keep the layer that pauses the timeline active when the closed captioning layer is shown. Hope this explanation makes sense. It is very late.
Thanks,Todd

Hi Todd,
Have you tried messing around with the Slide Layer Properties? Just click on the gear icon next to the CC layer and deselect the Hide other slide layers option. Hopefully that fixes things...
Hi Todd!
I'd have to agree with Matthew here.
You may also consider sharing your .story file so that someone could take a look and possibly assist.
Thanks, Matthew and Leslie!
Deselecting hide other slide layers fixed the problem.
Really, really appreciate it.

Glad to hear it Todd, thanks for popping in with an update.
