I have buttons that open a new slides allowing the user to move backward and forwards at will. However, I cannot get the Mouse Click Sound (Wav File) to work with the buttons as I did with previous slides.
1. I have tried doing this via States (Hover, Selected, etc) - no joy trying this way.
2. On previous scenes I created it does work with Layers - simply add the Wav file to the layer. But, for this scene I am not using Layers because that will not work for what I am doing.
Kam, can you post your .story file (or a portion of it) here. From the rather small screenshot, it's impossible to figure out what might be going wrong.
As far as I know, sound files in button states won't play. See attached file with a revised setup that plays the button sound. Clicking the Next button plays the sound, and once the sound is played, it jumps to the next slide. I would suggest moving the nav buttons and sound file to the slide master, so that you have one set of buttons and one copy of the sound file; rather than buttons and sounds on each slide. Hope that helps.

Hi Michael -
Yes, that totally helped! Very much appreciate your reply and now I know how to tie triggers to play media....Fantastic!
Hope someone else online finds this useful too.
Cheers,
