No audio, no customation but slide duration on seek bar

Feb 07, 2011

Hello,

I am modifying an e-learning course which previously had audio on each slide, recorded with the Articulate.

There were also animated textboxes on the slides, that appeared according to the audio.

No have deleted/deactivated all audio (with the Audio Editor) and all custom animation.

But when I publish the course, I have a different slide duration on each page, although it should only be the standard 5 secons, which I set in the Presentation Options. That there are different durations is already visible on the audio editor!

How can I get a equal slide duration?

Thanks for your help.

Regards, Florence

Hi Florence & welcome to Heroes,

To remove all of the timings from your project, you'll need to use the method below:

1. Open your project in PowerPoint

2. Click on the Articulate menu

3. Select the Audio Editor

4. When the Audio Editor loads, press CTRL + A. This will select everything

5. Press the delete key on your keyboard

6. Click the Save & Close button

Please let me know if this resolves your issue.

Hi Brian,

that's exactly what I did and the result is the audio editor picture I attached above.

I need another solution!

Thanks...

One thing you could try, and this is what I often do, is open Articulate > Record Narration and record 1-3 seconds of blank audio. You don't even need your mic plugged in since you don't want anything recorded. That should overwrite the audio duration for that slide.

Ok, not really elegant - but a nice work around - thanks! Regards, Florence
