Help! Is there a way to use a cue point to trigger another layer? I may be overlooking it, but I want to change a speaking bubble to have different content in it while the media is still playing from the base slide.
Unfortunately you can't use cue points to trigger layers. What I'd usually do is insert a shape 'offfstage' whose timeline starts at the cue point then trigger the layer to appear when the timeline of the shape starts. It's a little messy, i know, but it should work.
You could submit a feature request to prompt the articulate guys to develop something for a future update.

Ahh! Thanks Harri C. That makes perfect sense! I'll try that.
