I have the XD1132. I'm working on my first project and need help!

This is my first project. I am trying to create an audio playback screen with a looping background video and need some help.

What I currently have:

Currently, I have a slew of buttons linked to audio files. When a button is selected, the button layer goes away (while the audio file is played) and on completion, the button layer returns. I have a few hundred audio clips so I have many button layers with buttons to navigate between them and play the audio files.

The background layer is a video and (I thought) at one time the video looped in the background regardless of the button layer shown or baudio file played, but currently when I select a button, is freezes the background video, plays the audio file, and on completion shows the button layer again, but the background video never starts up again and stays on a frozen frame.

What I'd like to have:

I'd like to have (1) screen with a bunch of buttons that the user could "swipe" or scroll through, layered over the looping video. (Is this possible?)

When a button is selected, I'd like it to play back the audio file without leaving or hiding the button layer (or stoping/freezing the looping video). It'd also be nice if multiple buttons could be pressed/played simultaneously.

 

Any help, hints, or info is greatly appreciated.

Thanks & warm regards,

Alex

    It is possible, but looks like for swipe-scroll, you would need to develop the UI in HTML5.

    Hmm. I'll probably keep multiple pages... or make the buttons smaller.

    To stay within the BrightAuthor capabilities, without HTML5, you could also place Previous/Next buttons, to go between multiple selection screens...

    I'm not aware of touch gestures support in BA...
