I am creating a training with several screen casts in which I need to zoom in on certain areas. I know zooming requires having separate slides instead of using multiple layers. However, I would also like to add background music that plays throughout the training since the narration has a lot of dead air. When I click next the music stops.
Is there a way to have continuous background music playing on multiple slides?
One option could be adding audio in Slide Masters. However, that might not be a good solution if timeline of each slide has different duration. It will work for the ones which have same duraion.
As Hassan mentioned there isn't a playlist or background music feature in Storyline - although there are a few methods on how to loop audio. Here is a thread where some users discuss other ideas well.

Hi Lesa,

Other option is to add audio on each slide.
Good Luck.

But that would restart the music each time, correct? I was looking for it to be a continuous play throughout the training.
Yes it will.
There isn't any way to do that yet. I hope it will be added in the next version.
By the way, I am sorry for not properly Welcoming you to the forum. I just noticed it is your second post.

Great, thank you both so much!
