Is there a way to display a caption over a video at a certain point in the timeline? The difficulty is that the the video is triggered by the learner clicking a play button - so the caption timing needs to relate to the video timeline, not the slide timeline.
Create a blank layer that shows when the user clicks the play button. Set its timeline length to run until you want the caption to show. Hide the layer and show the caption when the timeline ends.
Alternately, you could place the caption on the layer, set to show at the appropriate time.
Hi, Katherine -- Thanks so much for your questions and it looks like Walt has you covered! And in case you are interested in checking out some other great resources related to use of closed captions, please see the following:
