Add an Audio Narration file to a Page
2019-12-17

Steps to add an Audio Narration file to a Page.

This automatically sets the audio file as Narration, in Autoplay mode and with Full Controls.

For Claro projects, it also switches the Timeline below the Stage to synchronize to the audio narration file rather than the default page timing.

You can have mulitple audio files on a Page but only one can be set as Narration.
