Hello Team, In AS 360 version v3.25.18088.0 replay button is not working if I kept a setting 'Resume saved state' in slide property. Thanks, Arif

Since the rewind button doesn't work in all situations, can there be an option in the player to remove this button? It is very misleading to learners to have it there but have it do nothing.

Hi Arif, In some cases, you may notice that the Rewind button at the right end of the seekbar doesn't actually start the slide over from the beginning. The behavior of the Rewind button is determined by the “When revisiting” property for each slide. There are three options to choose from: Automatically decide: This is the default option, and it means Storyline will decide automatically whether to rewind the slide or not. Here's the logic: If the slide contains just simple objects and audio but no interactivity, Storyline will rewind the slide to the beginning of the slide’s timeline. However, if the slide contains any interactive elements, such as buttons or any other object that includes a visited/selected state, Storyline won't rewind the slide. Resume saved state: This option will always prevent the slide from rewinding. Reset to initial state: This option will always force the slide to rewind. Try changing the resume behavior to Automatically decide or Reset to initial state and let me know if you see a difference!

Any updates on this feature request? Sounds like being able to add the replay button independently from the seekbar might resolve this issue...

May of 2023 - I am having the same issue with the replay button. When clicked the audio does not resume, even when revisiting is set to initial state on both the base and layers of the slide. Any updates yet?

Hi, I am also having this issue. I am setting most slides to "Reset to Initial State" as I understand this is less of a load on the LMS (Is this still the case?)A subset of my slides are set to "Automatically Decide" which chooses "Resume Saved State." I do this because on these slides there are required buttons to click and I don't want to force learners to click the buttons again when they revisit the slide. As people have mentioned previously, the Replay button does not work on these slides set to "Resume Saved State." Can you make it so the Replay button does not appear or even better, works as expected? (I don't have time or resources to build my own Replay button.)

I am following this discussion... I can't believe it's been going on for 7 years! Please post updates here when there is a solution to the problem. This is not a feature enhancement, but a product quality issue.

Any updates on this feature request yet?

I've been having the same issues as above mentioned and it would help a lot if the Replay button could atleast be hidden separately from the seekbar.

How is this even a thing? If there is any scenario where the replay button may not work, we should be able to remove it!

Hello - any update on having the option to replay the current slide you are on?? Having to include a button on every slide is ridiculous. Why isn't this an option on the 'Player Controls' yet??

If at least the replay button had a disabled states when it doesn't work, it would be less confusing! It seems simple to program...

Whenever I send a training out for usability studies, I can count on the same consistent complaint. The replay button doesn't work on all the slides. My user's don't understand all the reasons for why it doesn't work and I don't want to keep explaining it. Please, just make it so that I can deselect it from the player options!

This seems more of an essential component that is not working rather than a 'request a feature' that might make the cut in a few years. It is really not okay to make things for people that don't work properly (for you or for us using this product). Please could someone fix this?

Same. Very confusing/misleading for users and a bit of a burden for developers to have to create another workaround.

On the slide that serves as a main menu, I've set the slide properties to resume saved state when revisiting. I don't want this slide to replay automatically but I would like the Replay button to actually work. It does not.

This is a usability issue, if the Replay button is there it should work without my taking extra time to create a workaround. Is there a timeline for fixing this?
