Drag and Drop Audio

Sep 21, 2012

Hi! I've be lurking this forum for a bit getting tips and what not. It's been pretty great.

My problem now is:

I have a drag and drop presentation where audio plays when an object is dropped on a hot spot. The issue is, I can't seem to get the audio to stop playing when a new piece is dropped to a new hot spot... Any suggestions?

Thanks!!!

Hi Don,

You could add a trigger (or triggers) to each object to stop playing the other media pieces.  So if you have, say, 3 objects and 3 sound files. You'd say...

Play audio 1 when object 1 is dropped on target 1

Stop Audio 2 when object 1 is dropped on target 1

Stop Audio 3 when object 1 is dropped on target 1

for the next object, you'd say...

Play audio 2 when object 2 is dropped on target 2

Stop Audio 1 when object 2 is dropped on target 2

Stop Audio 3 when object 2 is dropped on target 2

For the third object you'd say...

Play audio 3 when object 3 is dropped on target 3

Stop Audio 1 when object 3 is dropped on target 3

Stop Audio 2 when object 3 is dropped on target 3

I've attached sample with just 2 objects.
