Disabling User Actions for Key Messages
Admins and content creators can disable user actions for key messages to improve content navigation and interactivity for end users, as well as enabling greater interactivity and customization in CLM content.
User actions are disabled for individual key messages, not entire presentations. All other key messages continue to function normally.
The following types of user actions can be disabled for key messages:
- Standard navigation - Remove the history buttons and navigation bar to enable custom navigation and allow the CLM media player to be more compatible with layered content
- Rotation lock - Allow PDF content to display in portrait mode, enabling end users to fully view each page of the PDF without needing to scroll. By default, PDF content displays in landscape mode, regardless of the device's orientation lock.
- Touch gestures:
- Disable the swipe gesture for slide navigation to enable greater content creativity and flexibility when adding interactive controls, for example, dragging or dropping elements within a slide, or adding horizontal sliders. If swipe sensitivity for slide navigation is defined, it is ignored when the swipe gesture is disabled.
- Disable the pinch to exit gesture to allow users to zoom in and out of a presentation without unintentionally exiting
- Zoom in and out – Do not allow end users to zoom in and out manually or using buttons, ensuring important information always display correctly and is not hidden
