How to replay a slide?
Hi! I want to put in a button so that a user can replay a slide. I have put in a button and set it to jump to the slide when it is clicked, and set the slide to reset to original state. However, when I try it out, the slide restarts, but without the audio. I have also put in pause and play buttons, by getting them to show and hide a blank layer that pauses the timeline of the base slide. These work fine.
Is there any trigger to restart the timeline?

Can you combine the two sound files together to make one long one?
I've added a workaround to the first slide, see attachment.
I could, but the same problem happens throughout the module, and most pages just have a single sound file, so I dont think it will help!
Thanks for the work around Stjin - it works great to start with, but after I've replayed the slide, the pause button stops working! I think my pause/replay buttons are terminally incompatible....
Rebecca,
I got you project to work by adding two triggers and doing some audio editing. First I made the two sound files one, then added a trigger to play media "the sound file" when timeline starts, then a second to play media when user clicks on the button. I'm going to try an upload the files.
Hi! Thanks for looking at it - do you think you could upload teh .story file please so I can see how it works? Many thanks!
Take a look and I went back in and the play and pause buttons still work like you designed so they have no problems with the replay slide button.
It seemed it stopped working when you restart when the pause layer is still active. I've added a trigger that hides the the layer when you restart. It should work now.
One problem - the audio describes animations that are happening on the screen, so the audio must be in sync with the timeline. I need to pause the whole timeline, not just the audio....
Sorry about that I think I have the right one now new to uploading files on here and really not sure which one I should upload.
