Stop all audio

Hi there, I have a page with audio, and three tabs which also have audio. I know I can stop audio when a tab is clicked by using triggers, but is there any way of stopping all media with just on...

Hi Monica! Thanks for sharing your idea. I can see how a "stop all media" trigger would be helpful, especially when you're working with several audio files.

I know it's a bit tedious, but it sounds like you're going about this in the best way possible. Another idea would be to separate the content and the audio onto two different layers. For example:

  • Layer 1 Content
  • Layer 1 Audio

Then, when the user clicks a button to open Layer 1, they are actually opening two layers.  With this method, you can replace several "stop media" triggers with one "hide layer" trigger.

I'd love to see other ideas from the community, as well!
