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?

Never Mind sorry about all that was in the wrong folder
Aha! thank you so much for all your help! I think I have it now! I have set the replay button to hide the pause layer, and put a trigger to play the audio when the slide starts. This combination appears to work, although I was worried that I'd end up with the audio playing twice... Now I need to apply it to all 60 slides......
Thanks!
Here's a copy of the working file:
Works like a charm.
Wow! Thanks everyone for all the help that you provided to Rebecca!
Hi again everyone,
This fix for the slide replay works really well, but I am having issues with it on some slides as it relies on the slide being set to revert to its original state, and sometimes I want it to resume the saved state. How can I request that the 'replay slide' button you can see in the preview mode be included as an action that you can assign to a trigger in a future version of Articulate? I would like a user to be able to browse through a series of slides they have already visited, replaying the ones they are interested in.
Hi Rebecca! I think you explained it well and you can submit that here as a feature request if you'd like.
this works
