Allowing user to rewind on the seekbar
Hi Rob,
Happy to help!
There isn't a built-in way to enable only the rewind button for the seekbar, but one workaround that you can do is to enable the conditional seekbar for your course. With this, the seekbar is locked the first time learners view the slide, but will have full access to the seekbar as soon as they complete it. You can read more about this here:

Hi Joe -- this was very helpful. Thanks! Is there also a way to keep the user from just clicking the Next button before the timeline has finished for the first time? I've been trying a couple of different experiments with Triggers and haven't been able to crack the code yet.
Hi David,
I'm happy to jump in; I appreciate the experiments with triggers that you've already done! I recommend using a combination of variables and triggers to keep the user from clicking the Next button before the timeline has finished for the first time. Please see the screenshots below for the suggested variable and triggers.
I've attached the sample Storyline project I used so you can look more closely at the variables and triggers and preview the course to see how it works.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding the sample project!
Thanks Joe for the reply. I have used the features you discuss before on other projects. Unfortunately, it will not work with what I had planned for my current project. I will have to rethink my approach on delivering the content. Hoping to see the capability I am seeking in a not-too-distant update to Storyline 360. I did put in a feature request. But again, thanks for the suggestion.
