Replay Button on Seekbar Not Working

Hi. A client has come back to me to note that the replay button on the right side of the seekbar doesn't work. I've checked it on both the Flash and HTML5 versions. I also can't find any triggers that specify the replay button, when pushed, should replay the audio for the slide. Can you help?

  • Hi Michael,

    The same setup exists in Storyline 360 (and Storyline 3) where:


    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.
    To change the “When revisiting” property for slides in your course, see this user guide.
    If you'd prefer to simply remove the Rewind button, you can do that, too. Bear in mind that removing the Rewind button will also remove the seekbar.
    For an Individual Slide
    To remove the seekbar and Rewind button from a single slide, uncheck the Seekbar box in the slide properties.
    For the Entire Course
    To remove the seekbar and Rewind button from the entire course, uncheck the Seekbar box in Player > Features.
  • Hi Shel!

    In some cases, you may notice that the Rewind button at the far 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. See this article for details.

      So this means that we can't use "Resume saved state" in combination with the Seekbar?  The slide will work -- except for the replay button which will be visible but nonfunctional? 

      Is this still the case?  Are there are workarounds to either remove the replay button or make it function?

      Thanks so much!
