Question

Hotspot in 360 slide that triggers Text and Audio

Hi All

I am trying to work out if it is possible to have a hotspot in a 360 slide that displays text and plays audio when clicked.

I can get one or the other to happen by selecting the appropriate action for the hotspot but don't see any way to trigger both.

I am creating exploratory projects. 

Thanks

    @RodWard You cannot trigger an advanced action with a hotspot on a 360° slide AFAIK.

     

    @stephen_liseo  I am sorry, but that is not easy to do at all as I mentioned in one of my blog posts:

    Using the Options tab for the hotspot it is possible to add audio, but the audio will be added to the hotspot as object audio. The result is that it starts playing when the hotspot is visible. If you are used to have all hotspots in the first frame of the slide, that is not a solution. Only possibility is to use the Timeline, but that may be in contradiction with your choice for 'Exploratory' since not all hotspots will be visible immediately. How to use the Timeline:

    Sounds like you are only familiar with single actions.  You can execute multiple actions by just using the same trigger event to execute an Advance Action.  Look up information about using Advanced Actions.
