Time for the slide continuing when movie is paused
I have a 12 minute video that my trainees need to watch but if they pause the video then come back to finish it, it completes before they have finished the video like once they have been on the slide for the time required, it gives them credit. any fixes to this?
- Create a T/F variable with the default value of False.
- Add a trigger to change the state of the Next button to Disabled when the timeline starts with the condition that the variable = False.
- Add a trigger to change the state of the Next button to Normal when the media (i.e., the video) completes.
- Add a trigger to adjust the variable to True when the media completes. (This ensures the Next button won't be disabled if the user revisits the slide.)
If you're not familiar with conditions and variables, here's more info:

BTW, you can always override the built-in Restricted Navigation with triggers like that. Here's more info about ways to control the Next button:
