New to Storyline: Playhead issue
Hello. When I click Pause in the timeline, the scene goes back to the beginning. The playhead stays in the right place (170 sec, for example), but the scene displays what's at 0 sec.

I think the playhead stays where it is when you hit pause. When you say your display returns to the beginning, I think you are seeing the slide view. Storyline's slide view does not show what things look like at a specific point in time. Everything on the slide is visible all the time. The playhead you are referencing only marks where the preview will start if you preview from the timeline. Referencing Leslie's image, if you set the playhead and then add an object, the object will be added to appear at the playhead, without respect to what you see in slide view.
You can move it on the timeline to make it appear and/or disappear at will.
