I want my SLIDES to be moved on by the learner, not to have a fixed time. How do I remove the time duration from the slide?

as above

Interactivity is more than just reading and clicking, but that is not your question. Which version do you use? I will suppose it is the latest one, 8.0.1.242.
Answer was already in my first reply. Insert an interactive object: shape button, normal button or click box. They can pause the slide, typical pausing time (see Timing Properties panel) is at 1.5secs for shape buttons and other buttons, at the end of its timeline for the click boxes that are invisible to the user.  Interactive objects have a Success and a Failure event, when they click on it the Success event is fired and that event can trigger an action like 'Go to Next Slide'. You'll find those actions in the Properties panel for that object, Actions tab. User can read or look as long as he wants, and only when he clicks that object he will move to the next slide. Read about Timeline: Tiny Timeline Tidbits - Captivate blog
Since you'll probably want that object to be clicked to move to the next slide on every slide, I recommend to use a shape button. That is the only one that can be put on a master slide (maybe the main master slide), or on the first slide and timed for the rest of the project (Timing Properties panel). More details in this post:

Never extend a slide duration for the purpose you mention, because that is just increasing the file size for no reason.

  • How can i remove Apple TV ads from youtube? It's really annoying! I want my old apple TV youtube BACK!

    Can I return Apple TV beaucouse the reason i bought it was youtube without ads and now is not!

    I Too find this very annoying. why is it, that each new update tends to make things worse? Do they not to any end user testing?
    Besides the annoying ads (yeah I know wait for a few seconds, then skip it. But why should I have to?), they restructured the layout after you've watched a video. You used to see a list related videos. And, because it was in single column you could see more than the new graphics. Maybe I will get used to it?
    The most annoying new f'eature' is what happens when you press the Pause button. A large chunk graphic with 'Resume' on it overlaying the image. Well guess why I pause videos? It's either because I want to study the current frame, or as in the case just now, some text was scrolling by so fast I couldn't read it. So I press Pause and now most of the text is covered up!
    Really Apple?
    If there's a way of fixing this, it would be great.  in the meantime I guess I'd better turn off auto updates.
    in a previous post about my disappointment with the IOS8 udpdate I commenTed I should get me a Samsung tablet. Well i did. The new 8.4" model very nice.  Time to start shopping for an ATV replacement. Too bad, because of all the ones I've tried, I've always preferred the ATV.

  • So, yes I am new to iTunes.  I have just purchased a book onto iTunes.  I now want to export it to my iPod.  It is not letting me do this.  How can I do it?

    I want to transfer the book from itunes to my ipod & my new ipad.  Hoping it is the same process for both.  I thought I would just be able to drag it over to my ipod device but not letting me.

    iTunes does not support drag and drop for iOS devices.
    Connect either the iPod or iPad to your computer, launch iTunes.
    Select the iPod (iPad) under Devices left side of the iTunes window in the source list.
    Select Books from the menu.
    Then click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.
    You can select All Books or Selected Books.

  • How can i remove moved and deleted old libraries?

    I've moved a bunch of my libraries around, removed some, and have installed iphoto9 on a new mac. I love that in iphoto9 I can now create new libraries or decide which library to open. But, all of my older libraries are showing up in the list when I open with "option". Plus there are duplicates of the older libraries. I'm assuming there is a db or data text file somewhere that is populating this list. Does anyone know how I can remove old defunct libraries from showing up in the list?
    Thanks,
    Bob

    Thanks Terrence. I didn't even realize all these old files still had album xml files. I appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Bob

  • I own a Mac. I want to install some new programms but itunes wants me to agree with some conditions. I WILL not agree to those conditions.

    I own a Mac. I want to install some new programms but itunes wants to upgrade itself and wants me to agree with some conditions. I WILL not agree to those conditions.
    How can I install software now? The stupid screen keeps popping up that itunes wants to be updated. Going round in a circle here.

    Well, if you want to use iTunes and whatever  security or changes have been made with the iTunes Agreement have changed since last time, and to work with the iTunes Store....
    Clone your system.
    You can also turn off updates.
    Are you on Lion? And already have iTunes 11? You can manaully download and go to the support page and see what changes were made and other requirements.
    There is a forum for issues with itunes (but not with the software license and agreement)
    iTunes 11.1.3This version of iTunes resolves an issue where the equalizer may not work as expected and improves performance when switching views in large iTunes libraries. This update also includes additional minor bug fixes. Nov 5, 2013

  • HT6006 I want to remove my credit crd from accounts

    How can I remove my credit card from my game accounts my kids r using it and I don't want them to be charging my card when my 4 year old hits a button on accident

    Hello Jeanette293,
    It sounds like you would like to remove your credit card info from your iTunes Store account. This section of the following article should help you do that:
    iTunes Store: Changing your payment information
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1918
    Change your payment information on a Mac or PC
    If they have their own device, you can also restrict in app purchases with Restrictions to prevent this happening again:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • In a word press moving photo gallery, the photos are not visible though slide change indicator advances

    http://sedonaharmony.org/
    On the above website there is a photo gallery moving banner at the top of this home page. When I first went on this site I could see the photos properly as they advanced. Then, the blog photos were changed and I could no longer see the photos. The banner on my screen is a complete blank even though the upper right circles indicate that "something" is progressing. When I first open the site I see a momentary flash of the site name graphic then the banner goes blank (white). Thanks for your help

    The script that loads the images doesn't seem to be working in Firefox 3.x versions including Firefox 3.6.23<br />
    The banner loads if JavaScript is disabled, but with JavaScript enabled a script replaces that banner with a slide show that fails to load the images.<br />
    It work in Firefox 4 and the current Firefox 7.0.1 version, so you will have to update if you want to visit that site.

    Be aware, you go that route & every time you try to update or restore, it will error out, leaving your phone unusable. Not to mention, you void all warranty/support.
    Sell it & use the proceeds towards an officially unlocked iPhone bought directly from Apple.
    Good luck.

  • How can you take a photo from one event and put it in another, without dragging to desktop and dragging back into iPhoto and moving it to the event folder I want it in.

    As the title says I need help on how to take a photo from one event and put it in another, without dragging to desktop and dragging back into iPhoto and moving it to the event folder I want it in. Right now when I want to move a picture from one event to another I drag it to my desktop then delete it from iPhoto then I drag it back into iPhoto and put where I want it.An example would be taking a photo from the Christmas event and add it to a specific person event.  Can I do that within the events section without all the dragging. Also is there anyway I can remove duplicates from iPhoto without going through each and every file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Apple doesn't make it easy to do what you want.  However, here's how I do it. 
    Select the photo you want to move and create a new Event for it via the Event ➙ Create Event menu option.
    In the Event mode select the new Event with the one picture and drag it onto the Event you want to move the photo to.

  • Captivate 8 - I want my slides to stop at the end and wait for a button click to advance

    It works when published as HTML5, but NOT as swf.
    (I have those specific slides set to pause at the end.  They contain stuff the user might want to write down.)
    Instead, the swf project advances to the next slide and THEN stops.  Instead of using the forward button, the user has to use the play button on the skin.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I suppose you used the On Exit event to pause? In that case the SWF-behavior is normal behavior: the action occurs only after exiting the slide, so Pause will be on first frame of next slide.
    Why not add a click box, time it for the rest of the slide and it will pause at the last frame. And you talk about a Forward button? Why not use the pausing of that button to pause at the last frame (or almost at the last frame)?
