How to get audio to not reset when user returns to initial slide
May 19, 2016
I am trying to do a few things and it doesn't seem to be working.
1. I have 4 objects on my initial slide, when the user clicks each it takes them to a new slide and then returns to the initial slide when its over. Every time the user goes back to the initial slide the initial audio plays over again. How do I stop this? I tried to Stop media when object one is clicked, but when I go back to the initial slide it resets it so the media plays anyways.
2. I want the object to switch to "visited" with a check mark once the user clicks the object. Again it seems to reset to the initial slide when the user returns to the initial slides.
Help!

Hi Britany
Query 1
1. Create a T/F variable call 'slide_visits' and default to false.
2. Add a trigger to adjust variable 'slide_visits' to true when user clicks the first object that takes them away from the slide.
3. Add a trigger to 'stop media' when timeline starts on condition that slide_visits=true
Query 2
Change your slide properties to 'resume saved state' on revisiting.
Hope this helps - if not feel free to upload your story file and someone will be sure to help you out.
Thank you! It worked :)
Glad to hear it Britany and good luck with your project.
