Hello, I think this makes sense. An approach would be to use such a cursor in the visual media types and extend the syntax suggested earlier a bit, so that it would be possible to have audio in a parallel (as Andrew named it) document that is read sequentially. There should, however, also be the possibility of combining audio assignments with other things, i.e. give a paragraph different background color while the sound is playing or something like that. It wouldn't make sense to assign sounds to elements without having the possibility of telling the user which element is causing it. Yours, David
