Problem with triggers
Mar 27, 2015
Hi,
i've been working on this production for a while. There is a problem that i can't solve despite my readings.
On the storyline example attached, you'll see that on each slide there are layers linked to buttons.
When my students click on one button to visualise a layer, it works, no problem, they can go back and forth between the layers. BUT when they go back from one layer to the main slide (linked to the first button), the sound is not playing anymore !
It works properly with the layers and i have applied the same functions !
Could you help please, i get complaints !
Thanks a lot

Estelle, do you want the main slide audio to begin again when they revisit it, or continue where it left off?
hi, thanks for your reply.
I'd like to it to begin again like the other layers. Whichever button they
select, it has to start back on the beginning, but it doesn't work for the
main slide.
thank you

I haven't opened the file, but if you click on the properties gear on the main slide and set it to "Reset to Inital State" it should work.
Yes, i know, that's what i have done for every slide including the base
layer, but i don't know why, it doesn't work for this one. When you preview
it you'll see that when visiting one slide, clicking on the various
buttons, when you get back to the first one, the audio doesn't start.
sorry for my poor english...

Hello Estelle,
Using the reset to initial state will only affect when someone leaves the slide, then returns. When they click on each layer, going back to the base slide will resume where they left off. You may be able to get this to work by adding a Stop media trigger to the buttons that open the layers, then add a Play media trigger to the button that returns them to the base slide.
OK i'll' try that thank you !
Let us know if you need anything else Estelle.
