I have a slide with multiple hot spots that trigger graphics and audio. The trouble is that if you have an over zealous clicker, he/she can click the hot spots in rapid succession playing all the audio at the same time. Is there a way to cut-off the previously triggered audio if another audio file is triggered?
Does the audio live on the slide itself? One thought would be to use the hotspot to trigger a layer where the audio resides, and then as Michael describes here: "I set the layer properties so that other layers are hidden and the baselayer's timeline (which in my file also has audio) is paused."
The other option is add additional triggers to each hotspot to "pause the audio" not associated with the hotspot - although that sounds like a number of extra triggers.

Hi Michelle,

A year later...thanks for the advice! It all worked out...I forget how. :)
Thanks Michelle for the update!
