Play Flash movie with button trigger?
I want to insert a Flash video onto a slide using the Articulate / Insert Flash Movie... command (Display on Slide). There is text on the slide I want them to read before the movie plays, so want the video to start only after the user clicks a button on the slide named "Play Movie." Is this possible?

Re: Play Flash movie with button trigger?
Well, there's one way to workaround this . . . Have two slides, one a duplicate of the first with the movie. The first has the button. (Use it to hyperlink to the duplicate slide with the movie.) Hide the second slide in the AP Slide Properties menu. To the learner viewing the preso, it will look like one slide.

Oops, left something out of my original post, which I just updated--making the button the hyperlink to the duplicate slide with the movie.
