Getting Layers to Appear and Disappear at Fixed Points in the Timeline
Hi. I'm new to storyline and have created a slide with several layers. I'm trying to get the layers to appear at set points in the timeline to synchronise with audio.
I've tried triggers - star...

Also dragging the objects in the layer to the point I want them on the timeline.
Changing the timeline position on the layer only affects that object after the layer timeline starts. It won't appear or disappear the layer itself.
Start with "Show layer XYZ when the timeline on this slide reaches X seconds." You may have to set the layer properties not to stop the base timeline to keep the audio playing, but experiment. You can disappear the layer with "Hide layer XYZ layer when timeline on this slide reaches X seconds" if you keep the base timeline running. Or you can change the properties of the layer to hide itself when its timeline ends, and adjust the timeline accordingly.
