Hello. I am wondering if there is any way to add audio files into a layer in Storyline. If not, I think this might be something for Articulate to think about in future updates.
Remzi - You should be able to add audio files into the layers. Are you getting an error message or something that is preventing you from being able to do so?
Layers have their own timelines - so you can adjust it as you would the base layer.
you can have a layer with the audio file only, in fact, this is a nice and simple way to have the audio and show the layer if conditions are met.
I used to use this method to enable or disable Voice Overs, but now I prefer to use a simple javascript code and few triggers to enable and disable audio at any point this is the code:
---- if (document.location.href.indexOf('html5') < 0) { var player = GetPlayer(); player.SetVar("muteToggle",true); } else { var appState = require("helpers/appState"); appState.onToggleVolume();//mute }
