A developer on the Adobe forum used the workflow in this interactive video to create a custom Play/Pause button:

However the OP needed more than this simple button as explained in this thread
This is not as easy as expected, like all use cases related to pausing the timeline. I worked out a workflow which is demonstrated in this sample project.
The project uses design elements from the League Quick Start Project, has been created in Captivate Classic. For multiple reasons it would be impossible to do this in the new version 1é at this moment.
I will explain the workflow in a blog post.
