Add soundfiles (voice over) to existing project – how do I make the sound optional for the participant to listen to?

Hi! I´d like to import soundfiles to an existing project. This is what I´m trying to do: I´d like to have a symbol on each page with a clickbox on top. When (if) the participant wants to listen to the voice over, he/she can click on the symbol and the voice is activated. Right now, the sound file is activated directly when I open the slide. Can anyone give me some advise? Kind regards, Gunilla

It helps if you mention the version you are using. Because you talk about 'click box on top of a symbol' you probably use an older version. Since shapes appeared, that can be used as buttons and can be filled with any image or text, this is no longer necessary: Turn an Image into a Button - Captivate blog
In that case you'll need to replace the slide audio (you see it on the Timeline) by object audio. Audio files can be linked to any objects, and they'll start to play when the object gets visible. First approach would be by creating an audio object. This blog post offers some details: Audio Objects: Control them! - Captivate blog
Second approach: use the command 'Play Audio' triggered by the shape button (or click box). I'd recommend strongly not to use this command as a simple action, unless you are happy with the playhead advancing at the same time: Why choose Standard over Simple action? - Captivate blog  Use a standard advanced action instead. If you were on Captivate 7 or 8 I would advise to use a shared action.
I hope you do have that command, think it appeared with CP6. It has the advantage that when another button is clicked that plays another audio clip, the first one will stop automatically. If you have to use an audio object, you'll have to hide the object to have the audio stopped.

    Steps to get SELECT-OPTIONS in module pool programs.
    1.Start one dialog program with SAPMZ_001.
    Place the below code in the TOP include of the dialog program.
    TABLES marc.
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF SCREEN 3200 AS SUBSCREEN.
    SELECT-OPTIONS: werks FOR marc-werks.
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF SCREEN 3200. 
    2 .Create one screen 3000.
    Go to Layout of the screen and Define subscreen area on the screen and Name it as l_subscreen.
    Place the below code in the Flow logic of the screen.
    PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
      CALL SUBSCREEN l_subscreen INCLUDING 'SAPMZ_001' '3200'.
    PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
      CALL SUBSCREEN l_subscreen.
    Activate all.
    Create Transaction code for the dialog program .
    Execute the transaction code. You will see the select-option for werks how we see on Selection-screen.

  • I am a student working on a project for school and I need to know the bandwidth options for the iPad mini with retina display

    I am working on a project where I am required to introduce a new product for consideration in the hospital setting.  I have chosen the iPad mini, and have been able to locate the information that I need except for the bandwidth options.  Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't know what you mean by "bandwidth options". If you mean the frequencies and bands the iPad can use with cell carriers, those are listed in the Wireless and Cellular area of the tech specs. For iPads sold in the US, see:
    http://www.apple.com/ipad-mini/specs/
    If that's not what you meant, please post back and clarify what you mean by "bandwidth options".

  • Flash 8 - How do i make a sound occur when the car hits the item

    In the car game i am working on, I now got a point system set up so the car hits different
    items and the points rise but i want the sound clip i have downloaded to play when the car hits
    the items..
    http://thebackyardchampion.deviantart.com/#/d48zgkl - Game link so far - but not published the point system yet.
    Anyway Please don't provide to straght forward advice such as "copy this code (code here)" etc
    Please can you provide the code i need, the MC car is called 'car 1', the MC items have different names
    such as g1, t1, pt1, pb1 and shine.
    Please tell me where i need to place the soundwave in the firstplace (or leave it in the library.)
    Whether i need to click the car or the item and paste it in frame 1 etc?
    Over all, all layers have a total of 3 frames. 1 key frame i believe and the other two are normal frames.
    Please helps..

    Hi there
    Probably it's just a matter of associating the correct CSS file.
    Open both topics in RoboHelp.
    Edit a topic where things look correct.
    Click the CSS icon as shown below:
    Click the image below for larger view
    Now edit the errant topic.
    Click the same icon and choose the CSS file you saw earlier.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How do I make a sound play once the .swf starts?

    I have loaded 'Audio.wav' onto the Library, and given it a linkage name of 'Speedcore' without the apostrophes. I ticked the boxes 'Export for ActionScript' and 'Export in First Frame'.
    I want it to start once the .swf begins. I set Audio to Stream.
    This is a code I found but doesn't work
    var mySound:Sound= new Sound(); mySound.loadSound("Speedcore" , true); mySound.onLoad = function() { mySound.start(); }
    Help? =)

    Thanks, I will try it. The only thing I need is to learn global values or whatever. I'm using a money-system and I need to learn how to make it so you can only buy 1 of an item, and all that. But atleast I know the basics. Thanks Kglad!

    Hi,
    I think easiest way is re-create your report , so wizard do things for you.
    Other vise you need create "search bar" region and items manually and edit report where clause.
    You can first set your old report condition to never and create new report with same select.
    When you are sure that new report working ok, you delete old report.

  • How do I make an electronic drummer for the backing of a concert

    I am going quietly crazy... being just an ordinary musician NOT a sound engineer! - ALL I WANT is a collection of drum tracks that I can start and stop and then go on to the next one - (I.e. an electronic drummer) for a 30 song gig. (My Live Drummer quit) NOW I have been through all sorts of tutorials for mainstage and it all seems to be ok but I CANNOT GET ANY KIND OF SETUP that does this simple task - I have a zillion drum loops and I know which ones I want to use - but.... there doesnt seem to be any simple way to set up 10 loops one after the other with a way of moving from the last one to thenext one - and have each one in the right tempo - I could do this in 1979 with a bloody drum machine so why cant I do it with a huge computer and a load of software?!!!
    anybody out there with a simple 10 step recipe for this task will have the eternal gratitude of an old bluesman!!!!
    VIV H
    (too old to die young but no too old to play the blues)

    I can hear you loud and clear Vivian.......and believe me I fully sympathise with the underlying thought of your criticism, but.......the point is this: why should we waste time moaning about trivial point of views, when we could use this time doing something more constructive? And I really mean this!
    And during those early Apple days, a computer called Atari was the only usable machine for music production. That's, by the way, where Logic emerged from. Of course then it was called Notator and later it became Notator Logic. Apple computers, in those days where considered a joke when they showed up in a studio environment. Comparing all of that and more, with the present time, we must come to conclude that, from a technical/creative point of view, i'm sure you must agree, we're in paradise.
    So what went wrong, why are so many musicians so frustrated and on the edge of a nervous brake down whenever they have to use computers. Well, one part of the answer lay's in that reality has not lived up to their expectations of what a  computer can and can not do. Again, it seems like a waste of time, hours of work configuring and no results.......
    Sometimes, while composing music, I will get stuck and there is nobody or nothing to blame. This happened too, before I started using computers helping me to do part of the job. And before that my pencil tip broke or I went out of ink and I had a broken string and no spare.
    I don't mean to belittle you in any way and I'm sure you perfectly aware what to do, but I found out for myself, some time ago, that if I want change to happen and make things go my way, so to speak, I'll have to get organised, learn a few things. Now I bent and shape everything until it suits my needs perfectly. And yes, there are times, when playing music, I intentionally leave computers alone!
    Cheers!

  • I can not store all my Music on my internal Macbook pro hard drive so I am storing it on a large external drive connected to my airport extrem.  How do I get Itunes to search for the music here with out trying to copy it to my laptops hard drive??

    I can not store all my Music on my internal Macbook pro hard drive so I am storing it on a large external drive connected to my airport extreme (2 TB drive plugged into the USB port).  I see the drive on my laptop and I can add and delete files no problem.  How do I get Itunes to search for the music here with out trying to copy it to my laptop's hard drive?  I don't have enough space to do that.

    How did you move the music to the external drive?  What exactly is on the drive?  The entire iTunes folder or only music?  If it is the entire iTunes folder you can do the option+start suggestion earlier.  If you copied only music and did so by dragging it there then you need to delete it again and consolidate/organize it there instead so iTunes tracks the move.  iTunes 12 for Mac: Change where your iTunes files are stored - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19507

  • How to make default personalization options for users

    Hi all,
    How can I make default personalization options for users, so that those will the default options when the user opens the portal BSP applications. Those will be the standard, at later point of time if they want they can personlalize some other fields, but earlier fields will be the default fields and user cant be able to change them.
    Thanks
    Murthy

    Hi Murthy,
    If you use IMG (crmc_blueprint_c) to customize PCUI appl than you can use the personalization feature. If you select 'Not in List' in the IMG for the field in the fieldgroup structure, than this field by default will not be viewable in the List View and will not be checked as 'Visible' in the Personilzation link. So by not selecting 'Not in List' you are giving that field to be viewable and all other fields are available for users to personalize by default.
    If you have maintained the 'List View' using the CRM Designer, than most likely you would lose the above feature, as SAP Standard code considers the CRM Designer as high level of customization.
    Thanks
    Harsh
