Issue with Pause and Resume of Timeline

Dec 16, 2019

I have a layer that I want to pause the timeline and go to another layer.  When the second layer closes and returns to the first layer I want the timeline to resume where we left off but it continues to resume from the beginning of that slide instead of resume from where we left off?  Is it possible to resume from where we left off?

Hi Heather and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)

Thanks for reaching out and sharing what you would like to see with your project file.

My first thoughts, without seeing your file are to be sure that:

  • Base layer slide properties for when revisiting set to 'Resume Saved State'.
  • Layer properties set to pause the timeline of the base layer with a trigger to close the layer to return to the base layer.

With your permission, I'd be happy to take a look at your project file to better understand your setup and assist you. You can share it publicly here, or send it to me privately by uploading it here. I'll delete it when I'm done troubleshooting.
