Adding sounds to buttons

You can associate sounds with the different states of a button symbol. Because the sounds are stored with the symbol, they work for all instances of the symbol.

 
To add sound to a button:

1

Select the button in the Library panel.

2

Choose Edit from the options menu in the upper right corner.

3

In the button's Timeline, add a layer for sound.

4

In the sound layer, create a regular or blank keyframe to correspond to the button state to which you want to add a sound.

For example, to add a sound that plays when the button is clicked, create a keyframe in the frame labeled Down.

5

Click the keyframe you have just created.

6

Choose Window > Properties.

7

In the Property inspector, choose a sound file from the Sound pop-up menu.

8

Choose Event from the Synchronization pop-up menu.

To associate a different sound with each of the button's keyframes, create a blank keyframe and add another sound file for each keyframe. You can also use the same sound file and apply a different sound effect for each button keyframe. See Using the sound-editing controls.
