Adding Media

You can insert Audio, Images and Videos into a page.

Audio

You can insert and play audio files within your project.

On the page you wish to play Audio, go to the Settings area where you can define the source audio file along with any actions the should be triggered at specific times during playback.

• Source Name - select the source file either from .guides/media folder if already uploaded to the project or upload directly from your PC where it will then be stored in the .guides/media folder.
• Add Action - specifies actions that are triggeted at specific times during playback. The following options are available.

Images

Inserting an image is similar. Here are some examples. PNG and JPG image types are supported. Note that the 2nd and 3rd examples point to images within your project.

Generally speaking, you should put your images in the .guides/img folder in order to keep the rest of your workspace free of extraneous content for the benefit of the student.
