Can text-to-audio be optional?

Hello! I would like to offer text-to-audio as an optional feature on my module, as some people do not like the robo-voice (and we don't have time or budget to cast actors) and some want to move through the slides more quickly. I do need to offer it, though, for accessibility.

After adding the text-to-audio to a slide, is there a way to just allow people to click on the speaker icon if they want to hear the narration?

Thanks in advance!

Kim

  • Hi, Kim.

    Thank you for reaching out!

    You can create a trigger to play the Text-to-Speech audio when the user clicks a shape/button/picture:

    Windows 10 (1) 2022-05-18 at 3.23.00 PM

    When you do that, the audio will no longer play automatically.

    I hope this helps!
