How do you create a player trigger?
When I add audio to a slide, I noticed that the player trigger disappears and the slide trigger defaults to next slide when timeline ends. This means the "Next" button also disappears when the slide is played. I want the user to advance slides manually, how do I get the "Next" button back?

Hi Jon! It sounds like your player properties might've just gotten changed accidentally. If you click the gear icon in the lower-right of the layer pane (on the slide's base layer), you'll be able to customize the slide properties... just mark the Next button and, if you want the slide advance to be initiated by the learner, change the Slide Advance selector to By User rather than Automatic.
Hey guys, I deleted the player trigger "next button" and would like to get it back. How can I do that?
Hey Tobias. You should be able to get it back like this: open up the slide properties, and then uncheck & recheck the "next" button as shown in the attached:
Great, thank you very much, Jeanette! I also figured I could just copy-paste the trigger from another slide :-)
Nice! That's a good way too! :) Only caveat is to be careful to watch for any conditions that you might have applied to the "Next" button trigger on other slides - because if you copy/paste, those conditions will come along too.
Glad you are all set! Good luck with your project!
