Audio on Layers
How can I stop audio from automatically happening on a slide layer? I have a button that I need the learners to click to play the audio on the slide layer, currently I access the layer and the audio starts. I've tried to pause and stop the audio when the timeline starts on this layer, but this hasn't worked.
TIA

One technique is to create a separate trigger to start the audio - such as click a button, etc.
A second technique could be to immediately pause the timeline on the layer, then resume the timeline with the interaction (again, click a button, timeline resumes). Then move the audio to start after that point, so, perhaps something like this:
In this instance, the audio track doesn't begin until after Picture 1 completes the animation. So there's no interaction, but I think you get the idea...
Good luck -
What triggers are you currently using to try and do this? Is there a slide you can share to get a better idea of what you are trying to accomplish?
Hi all, I'm not sure why this wasn't working yesterday, but when I tried it this morning it is. Thanks for your help.
