Question

I have an audio question.

I made a play button and assigned it to play a song when the user clicks on the play button.   I then made another button to use to stop the audio if the user clicks on the stop button.  I used the action "Stop triggered audio" to do this.  It works, but there is one problem.  If the users clicks on the stop button a second time while on the same screen, the program jumps to the beginning slide.  How can I enable the user to stop the audio  as many times as desired without jumping to the first screen?

    Did you use a simple or an advanced action for the buttons? Do they have a

    pausing point?

    Hi.  Thanks for your response.

    I used the actions in the drop down box under the actions tab.  Is that what you mean by a simple action?  I do not know what you mean by a pausing point.  the slide is set to stay put until the user hits a button to advance the slide.

    Yes, that is what I meant by a simple action. Simple actions will release

    the playhead, whereas a standard advanced or shared action (one line, one

    statement) will not release it. That is why I ask about pausing, which you

    can see in the Timing properties and on the Timeline. I'm travelling, or I

    would have offered you a link to a blog post and a YouTube video (look for

    Lilybiri). If both buttons kept the default settings they will pause at

    1.5secs, but using first button will release playhead, it will continue

    until end of slide and then proceed to next slide.
