Restrict click on video
Aug 31, 2018
Hi everybody. In some learning developments, we are working with two .story files:
The first contain the main project.
The second we use to create some video scenes to animate avatars with audio. We publish the slides individually and after that we placed videos on the main project. The purpose is to control the video with the navigation buttons, instead of controlling the avatars individually with them.
But we have a problem. When we click on the video that we have placed on the slide, this video stops, but the other elements of the slide are still moving and there is an audio gap (the audio is placed in the main project because the videos are placed without audio, because when exporting on video they reduce quality versus original audios).
Is there a way that with a trigger you can block the video on the slide to not click?
I am enclosing a part of the story project so that it can be examined in case someone has a solution that can help us.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Gabriel
if you don't want users to click on the video to play/pause it place a shape over the top that has a fill colour set to 100% transparency. It won't show to the user but will block their interaction with it.
Or you can also use hotspot to cover your slide above your custom player. This will also prevent learner from clicking to pause the video. Either way is fine.
Hi, hotspot works, thanks Virak. I was trying with transparent shape without success. Thanks a lot.
Awesome! I'm glad that this is working for you.
Hi Gabriel
if you use the HS I would to turn off the hand cursor so the user doesn't see the hover icon and try to click.
