VIDEO: PAUSE Playback if RESOURCES are CLICKED (?)

Dec 21, 2015

Hi everyone:

Was wondering if anyone knows about or has figured out a way to pause a Video's playback on a Slide if the RESOURCES List is CLICKED.

My intention here is to temporarily STOP playback of the Video (the video is AUTO-STARTED at the BEGINNING of the Slide) when/if someone wants to check out an external resource.

The closest I have come to achieving this is to use a "Click outside the Video" trigger, but unfortunately, this ONLY Fires if the CLICK is on the SLIDE, NOT on the Resources.  :(

Any suggestions/ideas welcome.

Hi Ashley:

It's not a major problem - I just was wondering if it was possible. 

I've restructured my Project so that the Resources are displayed on the following slide after the Video instead. 

Even if what I was looking for was possible, it didn't seem to make much sense cramming both items into the same slide - it's just adding complexity for complexity's sake, I think. ;)

Hi, Mark.

I'm not aware of a way of recognizing that the learner opened a different application while the course content played, but it might be possible with Javascript. 

I'm hopeful others in the community might have some suggestions for you. What is the intended environment (LMS, web, Review 360) ?
