Question

How to create advanced action with play audio AND jump to slide in captivate classic?

I have a project that is a "choose your own adventure" story, so to speak. On one slide, the user has two options to choose. I want both options to play a different audio when clicked, then one choice will send the user to the next slide, the other choice will jump to a different slide. However, when I created an advanced action to trigger the audio and then jump to a slide, it only jumps to the slide. The audio does not play. How can I reconfigure this advanced action to work?

 

Thank you in advance!

In the advanced action that plays the audio, you can include the action Delay Next Action By and then enter the number of seconds that it takes to play the audio file. Let's say the audio clip is 10 seconds long, the advanced action would look something like this...

  1. Play Audio slide01.wav
  2. Delay Next Actions By 10 seconds
  3. Jump to Slide 8 Slide 8
