Playing audio responsively

Hello,

I wanted to know if I can change the audio for each device play back . for example.  I have audio1 as my narration for desktop view (screen1). I would like to change the design for the same screen in a tablet  and make it screen 2, and a different design for phone view (screen 3). Instead of audio1, can I play Audio 2 and audio 3 for tablet and phone respectively? I do not want to play audio 1 for all the views.

Thanks!

Hmmm, thinking out loud a bit here. What if you had a different Text Caption for each breakpoint? Then attach the audio to the caption for that breakpoint. If you wanted to make it appear as if it were slide audio, you could just insert a transparent caption for each of the breakpoints and have no text but audio attached.

That's how I would attempt it.

Cheers... Rick

Thank you rick.. fairly new to captivate 8..

The breakpoints you are referring to are for the timeline ina slide correct? how does this impact the audio for each device? or can we attach different audios for display at the same page?

rick, your idea worked like magic! the only thing i would add to your suggestion is, I hid the preceding parent text caption on the child breakpoints so that I do not hear that parent audio in the child devices.
