In a similar but different vein, i would like to put the UP (up arrow key) to replay a slide (any slide in the presentation). So I would like to put this in the top master slide.

What else can i do on the Master template ?

Thanks

Hey Philippe, I agree, that is exactly what I was trying to find when I came across this thread. A simple way for non-sighted users to replay each slide with the keyboard, having it programmed into the master slide. Is this possible?

    Hi Alan,

    It sounds like you're hoping for a "restart timeline" trigger? If having this ability is something that would improve your experience using Articulate you can submit a feature request here. 

    In the meantime, you could look at setting this up using a Jump to slide -> This slide trigger and you'd need to have the slide properties set to "Reset to initial state" to have items replayed.
