Controls for audio

I have a course where on one slide, there is intro audio that automatically plays. Then I want them to be able to play or pause 3 audio files as they wish. I added a trigger to pause the audio when the timeline starts, and added icons for play and pause with triggers on them. 

Problem is, once the user plays and pauses the audio once, they can't replay it. I wish there were built in audio controls in Storyline!  Do I need to embed an audio player? Which one is recommended? Other ideas?

  • Anne,

    Here are a few approaches you might consider.

    The first example will take them back to the beginning of the parent story after pausing.

    The second example will pick them back up where they left off after clicking pause.
