Adding Audio to Markers

Nov 19, 2013

Hi everyone,

I am designing an e-learning module, and I did not want to add a lot of information on the slides. So I have decided to use markers because they keep the layout clean and organized, and the information will be revealed when the user clicks on those markers. However, I am not able to add audio specifically to each marker. I have the main slide with audio plays when the slide timeline starts, but I also want to add the audio to the markers so the user can click the marker, read the information on the label and hear the narration at the same time.

Could anyone help me with this, please?

Hi Ehab, Welcome to E-Learning Heroes.

If you select your marker, then click the Format button on the tool bar you can add sound to it by clicking on the Sound icon (second from left).

This should work.

Hello guys,

Follow up question, once one adds audio to the marker, how can one update the audio like we can on the timeline?

Thank you in advance for any help.

I mean, I am using text to speech and have made some changes to the original audio on the market. Now I need to update it. Can this only be done by recording the audio from scratch and upload?

Thanks
