Puasing a certain animation in the timeline when pausing an audio
Apr 06, 2020
Hi,
I am using Articulate 360.
I have in my slide several audios:
Audio 1: the main lesson, it is played when the slide starts and there is an animation on the timeline that goes with the audio
Audio 2,3,4....6: When I click any of these audio, I pause Audio 1 to play the clicked audio, until the user plays Audio 1 again.
My problem is that the animation keeps going on the timeline, so when I resume Audio 1 the animation doesn't go with the audio. I want to pause the timeline on the animation only, and resume it again when I resume Audio 1 .
When I pause the timeline when I click on Audio 2,3,4..etc. The whole timeline freezes and I can't play any audio.

can you put the other audio on a layer and set the layer to paste the timeline of the vbase layer?
Thank you for your reply.
The thing is that I have a play/pause button for Audio 1. When I click on other audios, I change the state of the button from pause to play so the user can click on it and resume Audio 1 again. So I can't put the other audios on another layer. because I won't be able to control the button.
You have to pause the timeline of the slide to pause the animation rather than pausing the audio, no reason why the button isn’t on the layer and is just hide layer, to get where you want to be will need you to think differently.
Many thanks Phil.
I got your point and it works now with layering.
