Is it possible to place a custom play bar on a master slide and toggle the image used by a button?

I have been creating a custom playbar and want to place it on a master slide for consistency and ease of maintenance in a responsive project. Some of the buttons need to toggle their image according to state e.g. play/pause.

They do have sharepoint and although this is not the ideal approach from the captivate point of view, would it be workable in any way? Or they likely could […]
