video starts when you press a button

Jun 07, 2013

hi everyone- all i want is on a slide to have a button and when you click on the button the video appears. 

All together I am going to have 6 buttons. Do I have to create a new slide for each video. I want it appear on the same screen

I would probably just have the six buttons on the base layer. And then add six layers that each has a video on. Then the button would link to the relevant layer.

If you ensure that the objects on the base layer are not hidden, and the video does not obscure any of the six buttons, then the user could click a button, see that video, then click the next button to go to the next video- without having to close each layer and return to the base (if that makes sense?).

Hope that helps
