Audio

[Mr.Ed9]

I was wondering if there was a way to have the narration on a slide play only upon first visit. My training is set up like a website, so that when a page with links to chapters is visited, you hear the narration. But when revisited through the jump to slide nav icon links, the narration plays again. Annoying. I addressed this by adding a silent duplicate slide. However, if the user uses the next page arrows, they will see the duplicate slide. Also annoying! Can somebody bless me with an advanced action or some setting to address this? Thank you!

What if you had an onEnter action that sets a variable as a flag that one has already visited the slide?

IF  var_visited=1 THEN stop audio  ELSE play audio.

Maybe something like I demonstrate here:

Let me know if you are interested in the action. It is one of the examples I treated in this blog post:

Timeline - Advanced Workflows - Captivate blog

I need to know if you need CC for the audio or not?

I found this nice explainer on advanced action to do this on Lynda. Lesson, Adobe Captivate for Systems Training.
