Pausing timeline when pausing a video
I just noticed that when a video in a slide is paused the timeline keeps moving along. It does not pause in unison with the video control pause.
I have some screencasts that I made and inserted ...
Hi All,
I figured out a workaround. Use the player built-in seekbar. Create a "do not click" layer that has a trigger to show that layer as soon as the timeline starts. This layer should have a transparent rectangle that is exactly the size of the slide (this will keep users from clicking on the video, which would pause the video, but not the timeline). If you have buttons that need to pop up, make them additional layers and add them to a specific point on the timeline and then hide the layer again at a specific point on the timeline.
I really wasted a lot of time coming up with this workaround. I can't believe that Articulate still can't allow us the option to sync the timeline with a video. This is basic stuff. When will it happen?
