Replay and Seek Bar - Resetting And Rewind Error

Dec 09, 2020

Hi,

I wanted to raise a query on the forum regarding the replay button and the seek bar setting on storyline 360.

 

File Detail:

  • There is a base layer with 4 clickable buttons.
  • All 4-slide layer has some content corresponding to the button.

 

My requirement:

  • While clicking the replay button, the complete slide should be replayed.
  • The seek bar should help me navigate through the base layer and not the selected slide layer

 

 

Case - 1:

The seek bar is set to "Allow Seeking - YES" for all slide layers.

 In this case on the preview/publish mode, when I click the replay button on the player, it replays the selected slide layer and not the base layer.

Similarly, the seek bar seeks through the selected slide layer and not the base layer.

 

Case – 2:

The seek bar is set to "Allow Seeking - NO" for all slide layers.

 In this case on the preview/publish mode, when I click the replay button on the player, it works and replays the complete base layer slide. But when I use the seek bar to seek through the slide it leaves the selected slide layer as selected and does not show any change on it while the elements on the base layer shows the animations stages as per the seek bar state.

 

Hence is there a way for me to replay the base layer while keeping the seek bar as allowing seeking for the base layer, so that I can rewind and see the slide using the seek bar. 

Note: A sample file has been uploaded for reference.

Hello Akhilesh,

Thanks for sharing the details of what you are experiencing along with the sample .story file.

The expectations of the Rewind button are outlined in this documentation:

Rewind Button Doesn't Start the Slide Over

I took a look at the file and think that states may work better for you. I've created a slide in Scene 2 with this setup if you'd like to take a look.
