Audio question in Storyline 2

Hi Maree,

Have you thought to use variables to just trigger the next button to show if they have already been on the slide? Then you could set "reset slide to initial state" for your slides and they have the option to skip the slide with the next button if they have already visited.

Otherwise, there's no easy way to replay the audio or a given slide that I'm aware of.

Hi Daniel.

I'm not sure this is possible with the way I have set up my slides. The NEXT button currently displays after a point in time, regardless of whether the audio has completed. I have done this so those who are fast on screen readers are not getting frustrated waiting for the audio to finish before they can proceed.

It should work. Create a variable a slide and set it equal to "false". If you put the trigger on the NEXT button and set the variable to become equal to "true" after the button is clicked, then you just need a second trigger to trigger when the timeline starts, that looks to see if the variable is equal to "true". Set that trigger as far to the bottom of the list as you can (if you have other triggers on the slide related to the NEXT button) and it will make the button immediately visible if the slide has already been visited.

It's a lot of variables depending on how many slides you have, but it will definitely do the job.  =)

Hi Maree,

If you're still struggling with this set up you may want to share the .story file here and that way others can take a look at your set up and weigh in on specifics. The article here discusses ways in which to disable the next button.
