Javascript to MUTE audio?
Is it possible to MUTE audio in Storyline? I'm working on a course with a ground-up custom interface with a button that's supposed to mute/unmute - not pause/play or stop/play - the audio.
Are there any Javascript gurus out there who know if this is possible? And if so, can you provide the scripts for mute and unmute? That would SO make my day.
Dazed and confused...

A life saver code.
var appState = require("helpers/appState");
appState.onToggleVolume();//muteThanks to whoever came up with this solution.
Thank you very much for the code Naku
Hi Naku,
Can you please suggest how to add this 'lifesaver code' in Tuggle mute/unmute button.
It will be more understandable if you share SL file for an example.
Hi!
This week I updated storyline 360 and Javascript no longer works.
Trainings published before the update are ok, but those after the update do not work properly.
Do you have a solution for this?Same here. The scripts that I used last year are not working now.
Having the same problem. Getting an error "require is not defined" in the Developer Console. Any quick fix for this?
This has been working for me. Add to a javascript trigger:
DS.appState.onToggleVolume();
Dear Nigel, you are a life saver. I was looking to make my custom volume buttons work for quite some time.
This does the trick. Let's hope it will last for future Storyline updates...
DS.appState.onToggleVolume();
I'm new to JS, but want to learn.
Can someone take me through the process of writing the script for a toggle mute/unmute button?
Hi Dan,
Almost nothing to this. Just create a button and add an Execute javascript trigger. In the javascript panel of the trigger just add DS.appState.onToggleVolume();
That's all you need to do. It will not work in preview but will once it's on a server or LMS.
Cheers,
Nigel
Hi Nigel,
Putting a Storyline on the LMS is kind of a big deal in my organization.
Will it work on Review 360 or if I save the file folder to my computer?
I won't be insulted if you dumb it down.
Thanks,
Dan
