Auto-selecting Closed Captions?
OK, this is mostly due to my difficulty in understanding English sometimes...đ
In this case, it's super easy.
In Storyline, the appearance of subtitles depends on a built-in true/false variable: Player.DisplayCaptions. Have a look at the table of âbuilt-inâ variables. True: you have close captions. False (default): you don't. So, all you have to do is create a trigger: // Set the âPlayer.DisplayCaptionsâ variable to the value âTrueâ WHEN the chronology of this slide BEGINS // (of course, you've already created your Storyline subtitles on this video) So it's as if you clicked the CC button as soon as the slide starts. Create a second trigger: // Set the âPlayer.DisplayCaptionsâ variable to âFALSEâ WHEN the timeline of this slide ENDS // In this way, the next slide will not be automatically subtitled. That's all there is to it. Am I clear enough? Does this help? You can check by âdisplayingâ the variable on screen that âPlayer.DisplayCaptionsâ changes from TRUE to FALSE and vice versa every time you click the CC button.
