Play Soundfile while pause timeline
Mar 08, 2022
Hi,
I want to setup a software training. Every time the learner have to click on the correct button "in the software" (a video) a colored rectangle appears, which stops the video. While the pause I want to play a sound file (speaking instruction what the user can find here and that he/she have to click on the button to move on). Over the rectangle are 2 triggers, one to pause the timeline and one to continue the timeline after a click on the rectangle.
But now the question: How can I play the sound while the timeline pause? I tried it with layers, integrate the sound file and set a trigger to start the layer after the rectangle appears. But the trigger to pause the timeline prevents this.
Any ideas?

Hi, Marcel.
I wasn't able to reproduce what you're experiencing. I tried the following:
Both options worked (the timeline paused, and the audio played).
Are you comfortable sharing your .story file so we can see your setup and offer specific suggestions?
Uff, you are right. I don't know what I did wrong. Started again from scratch and now it works as requested (and described by you). Thanks!
