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?

This seems to be a feature/issue that should be resolved in the software and not addressed by workarounds. It's a Rewind button. It should work like a Rewind button found in any other UI learners and developers are accustomed to interacting with. Maybe it's matter of making this the normal behavior as a default and adding controls to allow a developer to alter if necessary but not required to create familiar, and well designed from a usability standpoint, learning experiences. Additionally, I would highly suggest the seek bar and rewind button be unlinked in terms of showing or not showing controls. Although related functions, these should be available independent of each other in the controls.

I add my vote here. A rewind button should rewind no matter how the slide is designed. You click, it goes back to the beginning. No thinking should be necessary. For the learners, it just looks like an annoying bug forcing you to drag the seekbar manually. Please, do something to fix that.

Add my vote to this as well. This comes up for us a lot, and it's not easy for us to handle. Our users want it to rewind, or start the slide over. Sometimes it works they way they desire, sometimes it doesn't...that's frustrating for everyone. We need to be able to have separate control over the "when revisiting" and the function of the replay button. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm with Jason and Jessica and dealing with this issue now as well. The rewind/replay button should be independent of BOTH the seekbar and the "when revisiting" setting. This causes some significant workaround needs.

I too would like a replay button independent from the seek bar and matching the Previous-Next buttons :)

I would like to add my vote as well: if you have your slide set to 'save state', if you are on that slide and click 'replay' the slide should replay. If you revisit the slide, it should save the state. thanks!

For replaying only the audio, I have came up with the following steps:

Duplicating the audio file in the slide

Have the original audio file plays normally in the timeline

Add a trigger on a custom button to play the copy

Add a variable that enable the Replay button to be clicked after the original audio file is complete

As for a Replay function, I feel like it's long overdue to get such a trigger, because right now, a user can either replay a slide everytime s/he revisits (reset to initial state) or cannot do so (resume saved state). There should be an option to replay a slide, even if you set it to "resume saved state".

Having the same exact issue and would like the rewind button to be independent.

I also agree. Right now I am getting a lot of complaints because the rewind button doesn't always work.

Add my voice too, please.

The rewind button should always be able to reset the view

latest version of 360 and I'm not uploading here for proprietary reasons. I have opened a ticket with the issue but it seems to be related to interactivity and automatically decide as noted here and this thread.

  Hi there, Amy. I see that Cleo is having a look at your file; thanks for submitting it! I made some notes on your case about the submit button state changes and what you mentioned here.

Hi there, Amy,

That definitely sounds odd. The replay button on the seekbar shouldn't have any effect on the Submit button.

What version of Storyline are you using? Would you be able to share a short screen recording or Peek 360 video so I can get a better idea of what's happening?

Hi Alyssa,

The seekbar is enabled and selecting replay on the seekbar causes the Submit button to not function anymore.
