Can I insert a pause button for multiple layers with audio?

Nov 19, 2018

I have all of my narration written out in the notes section and there is audio for each slide/layer.

Is there a way to insert a pause button on each slide or layer to pause the timeline?

I did attach a file today. Can you access that?

Hi Crystal -

I think I figured out how to insert a play/pause button. I have a new question.

Can I only allow users to advance to the certificate page if they have completed or visited every screen in the course?

I want to set up a main menu that would allow the users to go to each section but don't want them to be able to get the certificate if they have not visited each section.

The main menu would look something like this:

The retrieve your certificate slide may look like this:

Thank you for your help!

 Hi Jamie,

It looks like you meant to include some images here, but they won't appear if you respond via email. If you want to pop back into this discussion you can add them as an attachment.

You could restrict their access to that final certificate slide in a few ways. If the course is linear, meaning the learner would visit each slide in the order you set up, using something like restricted/locked navigation would prevent them from proceeding to that final slide until they viewed the earlier slides. You can change that from within the menu options. 

If you're not using a linear navigation, you'll likely need to look at tracking a variable for each slide and once all those variables are equal to X, that a button would be enabled to print or visit the certificate slide. If you're looking to use that idea and find yourself stuck, share a copy of your .story file here with us and folks can take a look and help out!
