Quicktime Interactive Movie Mouse Control

Question

I have a quicktime interactive movie saved from keynote with chapters added in.
The file pays full screen but at 800x600 screen resolution, the mouse left click button is not advancing the presentation. If I change the resolution to 1024x768 the mouse works again. What is the relationship between resolution and mouse control and how do I get it to work at 800x600?

Answer 1

Tristan,
As Rick indicated in his post, the answer lies in "manually"
pausing the slides by inserting click boxes or buttons. I just
wanted to add that if you have already recorded your movies and did
not use Simulation mode, you can still easily insert a click box on
each slide to pause them.
1. On the first slide, insert a click box and set the options
as you desire (turning off success/failure captions for
instance...just don't uncheck the Pause movie until user clicks
option, otherwise you will change the "nature" of the object that
Rick was referring to.)
2. Size the click box to as small as possible and place it in
an out of the way location on the slide. (We often hide it under
another object if it does not need to be clicked such as when used
in conjunction with the auto playback controls.)
3. Copy the click box
4. On the filmstrip view, highlight all slides that you want
the movie to pause
5. Right Click on any one of the highlighted slides in the
filmstrip view and select Paste Object
This will paste a copy of your click box in the same location
on all slides with the same settings as your original.
