Single Audio track across a whole project

Hi, All...

I want to use a single audio track across multiple slides in Storyline.  I've looked through the discussions and saw one about copying from one slide to all selected slides.  That did NOT work for me.

Is there a way to have a single audio track play over multiple slides?  I've tried snipping the track into the durations for each slide and it comes across very choppy.

Help!

Thank  you!

    Hi Jane and Brian!

    I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 74, we've included important fixes and new features.

    One of the new features we've included is: 

    • Create immersive experiences with continuous background audio that sets the tone and keeps learners engaged.

    Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.

    Please let me know if you have questions!

    Jane,

    If you are trying to add background music to an opening of the course, you could add the music to the base layer and use layers instead of slides for that section.

    Ex: Base slide is course title, layers are created with learning objectives, course credits, etc. that appear when the user clicks (via trigger) or a certain cue points if you wanted to automate the process.

    Javascript could be used; do a search on the forums and I'm sure you'll find several options.

    What if you have a large narration file and need to split it across an entire SL project? Presenter made this really easy, and Adobe has done this with Captivate for years. When will this be added to SL?
