In former versions the shape buttons did not pause by default and you had to check the pausing option. In CP8 however the shape buttons do pause by default as Rick shows (and I'm always replacing buttons by shape buttons) at 1.5secs. But you have to look at the timeline and check if this is the proper time to pause? As I understood from another thread you want this button to appear only at the end, be sure that the pausing is within the timeline of the slide.

Well, personally I don't use them all that much. To my knowledge, if you enabled the button function it *SHOULD* pause. You might want to double-check by looking at the timing tab.

Cheers... Rick

No, I'm not seeing that behavior.

It is actually a button I created from a shape. Should I have not done that?

Thanks,

Hi there

If your "Next" button is a button object, it should actually pause the slide until it has been clicked or until another action causes play to resume.

Are you not seeing that behavior?

Cheers... Rick

I apologize if this sounds odd -- but it is my client's request, so I need to find a solution.

How do I make a page not move on, unless the "next" button which I created is clicked.

Thanks,

Charlotte
