CS4 Controlling Sound in a Slide Presentation Without Buttons?
I have created a presentation in flash cs4 with 20 slides for a non-profit org totally pro bono. I am at the end and needed to add a snippet of Aretha Franklin's song Respect. I created a movieclip with the song snippet and text. I added all the necessary frames to let the clip play in it's entirety. I also added a keyframe with a stop command at the end of the movie clip. I added the movieclip to slide 14 and the when testing my slide presentation the song plays at the beginning through the end of the whole slideshow.
I need to figure out how to have the song snippet play only once when the presenter goes to slide 14. Ideally the presenter would click next from slide 13 and the song would begin and then stop when played. The presenter would then have time to discuss the text and snippet on the screen before moving to the next slide or having to click any stop or start buttons.
Is this Possible??? Please help I am under the gun here and would appreciate any advice.
Still Unable to Make This Stop and Start?
Hello again,
Displayed the current slide presentation to the board this morning without music. However, there will be several more classes (slide presentations) that will need to be created that will also use music on certain slides only.
This is the command I have at the beginning of each slide (which I have altered several ways without success)
Sound1.stop();
At the beginning of slide 14 I have this code;
var Sound1 = new Sound();
Sound1.attachSound("Respect");
Sound1.start(0, 1);
//on completion stop
Sound1.onSoundComplete = function() {
Sound1.stop();
//or go to next slide command
};
What I am trying to do and what it is doing.....
For some reason this forum is truncating my responses?? I am a technological calamity this week :(
Anyways, I was trying to say that this is for a Flash CS4 Slide Presentation, I am not using a main timeline with named frames or scenes. It is very similiar to a powerpoint type layout. With that said, when I start the slideshow the music starts as well and plays independtly of the slideshow and the 20 slides.
I only want the song to start on slide 14 and stop at the end of slide 14, it should not play on at any other time during the presentation. There will be several classes that I have to create presentations for that will also use sound/song snippets on particular slides only. Can you please help me? I am sure it is something silly that I am missing but I am seriously stuck and have exhausted all avenues to figure this out on my own. What is that I am missing in the script to make this function as it should?
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide.
