Has anyone found a more elegant way to make a replay button work for video in Storyline?
The only way I've really been able to make this work is using slide layers, but was just wondering if anyone has come up with something less time-intensive...
Mike - classic example of my overthinking something that is simple to do, thanks for the screenr.
Gerry, I do want the video to begin playing automatically, but I think I can use Mike's example to make it work. Going to give it a shot today (hopefully)
Yeah, with my example, you should be able to just have the play button start off in the hidden state and trigger it to appear when the media completes.
And I'm with you with the classic over thinking. But thankfully, Phil, Waz and the gang are often here to show me the error of my ways!

Well, I might do something as simple as add a button and label it "Replay." Then I'd attach a single trigger to it to move to the exact same slide that the video and button are on. Then I'd set the slide's revisit properties to "Reset to initial state."
Pretty simple (if the revisit property is okay to have).

Brian,
Would something like this work?

Hey, Brian! Does the audio play automatically or do you want the learner to start it with something like a click?

Thanks guys, worked great and much simpler than the direction I initially headed with it (multiple layers!).
Much appreciated.
I was just looking for a super simple way to do this and this was it. Thanks!
So glad that this thread is still assisting users. Thanks for chiming in to share Mary Ann :)
Can I change the text label of the replay button on seekbar? Right now it is an icon, I want it to say "Replay".
