Pause Button

• Create an empty layer that pauses the base slide.
• On base layer, insert trigger that shows that layer when user clicks that button.
• Decide on a way to escape that pause layer once you're on it - maybe using a back button, or a hotspot click on the layer itself.

Hope this helps,

Hi Tiffany,

In addition to the steps Alex provided there is a support article and screenr here on how to set this up to pause the timeline of a slide. 

I am using more layers and on my base layer I have added some triggers to show these layers when timeline starts. When I follow the above approach, after I pause the scene it opens the layer pause, on the layer pause I have the button play, like described. This will hide the layer pause again. But due above all my other triggers to open other layers are not working anymore. i have separate layers for navigation and audio..... 

Hi Willem!

Have you tried moving these triggers to the top of the Trigger Panel? If you have multiple triggers for the same layer, then make sure "Show Layer" and "Hide Layer" triggers are at the top.
