Is there a way I can have one audio track across several slides in the middle of a presentation? How would you let the end user know to click next or do I need to advance the slide automatically? If I advance the slide through slide properties, is there a way to lock the navigation so they can't manually advance?
Sorry for the multi question post.....I just want to ensure this is set up properly.
Each slide will have it's own audio. You can import one long audio file into your first slide and the manipulate it via the audio editor so that it covers all of the slides. Once you save in the audio editor, though, it will separate the audio into one file per slide.
So if I understand this....I would import 'the big audio file' into the first slide I want the audio to begin, then use the Articulate Audio Editor to manipulate from there? i have never used that before....are there any SCREENRs or blog posts for tips/tricks for this?
I had a question on this. I have uploaded the audio to the first slide. When I go into the Audio editor, it does not show me the other slides and give me the option line them up with the Audio. Is this a new feature and maybe I have an outdated version of the application? Any thoughts? I appreciate your help!
My first question is, are you using Presenter or Storyline? Justin's technique will work for Presenter, whereas there's no similar method for Storyline.
If you are hoping to get audio across multiple slides in Storyline, David Fair posted a really cool workaround that may work for you. Check it out
We really need the Set Next Slide feature in Storyline. I find that I keep using Presenter as it has this feature. Patter is the feature going to be available soon?

Thanks Justin,

Oh okay. I am working in Storyline. I guess that makes sense as to why it is different on my screen. Thank you!
Hi Jessica!
Thanks for checking back in, and I hope that workaround helps out!

Hi Maureen,
I don't have any information on if that would be a feature released soon, but have you submitted a feature request for this?
