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?

Hello! Any updates on this? This was posted over 6 years ago, and it's still the same until now. Have we found a workaround for this or have the developers fixed it now?

This is really frustrating - it is such a basic common sense feature that adds so much to functionality and without it forces the user to miss content that they really want to see. That's the worst. Perhaps we should all keep requesting this as a feature request. It seems we need to tale a stand and be more forceful. Another feature request going in today.

Did this get fixed? - I seem to still have the same issue.
Hi Antony!
Still no change to this behavior, which is outlined in this article.
I've included your voice in the Feature Report that we have open for the improvement of this feature.
Here's a quick look at how we manage feature requests for your reference.
Thanks for reaching out!

Add me as well - it's standard UI stuff - same with another previous comment re the previous slide going automatically to the actual previous slide, not some random one the learner went back to.
7 years and counting folks!

ADD ME AS WELL... Need this to rewind from the beginning.!

Looks like this thread died but am adding my plus one. Sometimes learners (and reviewers) want to reset and relisten to a slide while they are on it. But it's also useful to have a slide retain it's saved state when the the learner clicks around at other times. It would be great if both things were possible. If the reset button set the slide "back to 1" without needing to change the return property.

Here we are 4 years later and I'm discovering this thread because I have the problem. Will you please ask the design team to resolve it? Any button present on the seekbar must work.
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.Hey Jason, I appreciate your feedback on the player Rewind button. Our product team is always keen to hear about customer needs and ideas, so I can certainly pass along your suggestion. And feel free to share any other ideas you have here: Feature Request Form.

Thanks Alyssa! Really appreciate it.

Alyssa, within the last year alone there have been more than a dozen posts on this thread saying that the Rewind button should work as...a rewind button. That suggests that the "pulse on the popularity of this request" is at maximum heart rate, , and clearly many Storyline users would like (and actually expect) this functionality.
I'll put in an official Feature Request, but it is beyond weird that it won't work when Resume Saved State is selected.
Hi Jessica! Thanks for adding your voice! We've got our eye on this discussion to keep a pulse on the popularity of this request, so I've added your vote to our report.
