Removing navigation buttons for SCO package

The LMS automatically displays prev, next and close buttons. I can hide these buttons and here tells about it. But I didn't find an example of how to do. What is the approach to handle this?

Edit:

... an other source clearly indicates the pieces to do this job. Adding these bits into manifest file; 

<sequencing>
<controlMode choice="false" choiceExit="false" flow="true" />
</sequencing>

will solve the problem.

I posted this as an answer but it did not go well. It seems choice property does it but LMS still show these. The flash content goes back and forward itself well and I just do not want to display buttons. So how can I hide nav buttons?

Some LMSs use custom XML markup, too. Might want to check with the LMS vendor.

For example, SumTotal's TotalLMS (now "ELMS") uses additional proprietary markup to indicate whether to show the LMS's built-in nav controls.

http://files.articulate.com/kb/ap09/Working_with_the_API_for_SCORM_Extensions_in_SumTotal.pdf

For SumTotal, add this to your xmlSchemaLocation attribute: http://www.click2learn.com/xsd/c2l_cp_rootv1p1 c2l_cp_rootv1p1.xsd, add this attribute to your <manifest>: xmlns:c2lcp="http://www.click2learn.com/xsd/c2l_cp_rootv1p1", then add this markup to your imsmanifest, just before the </manifest>:

<c2lcp:ItemDataExtra>
    <c2lcp:ItemData Type="Course">
        <c2lcp:ItemSpecificData>
            <c2lcp:CourseData>
                <c2lcp:PackageProperties>
                    <c2lcp:CourseDisplay>
                        <c2lcp:ShowNavBar>no</c2lcp:ShowNavBar>
                    </c2lcp:CourseDisplay>
                    <c2lcp:Launch>
                        <c2lcp:Width>1280</c2lcp:Width>
                        <c2lcp:Height>1024</c2lcp:Height>
                        <c2lcp:AllowResize>yes</c2lcp:AllowResize>
                    </c2lcp:Launch>
                </c2lcp:PackageProperties>
            </c2lcp:CourseData>
        </c2lcp:ItemSpecificData>
    </c2lcp:ItemData>
</c2lcp:ItemDataExtra>

Try out this on a item after the title.

<adlnav:presentation>
     <adlnav:navigationInterface>
        <adlnav:hideLMSUI>continue</adlnav:hideLMSUI>
        <adlnav:hideLMSUI>previous</adlnav:hideLMSUI>
     </adlnav:navigationInterface>
 </adlnav:presentation>
