Pause / beat in dialogue?

I am trying to do something that I am sure is easy but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do it.

I want to have a brief pause between someone saying something and then the next line of dialogue. However the only way i know how to do this is the have a long p tag. But the characters talk animation will continue to play when using that. I want a few seconds of silence without the talk animation before going tot he next line of dialogue.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction on this?

Thanks!

If you go into your actions and scroll down there is a "pause" action under the miscellaneous category. Since this pause is outside the dialogue it should give you what you are looking for.

DOH! I knew it was going to be something easy that I was overlooking!

THANKS!!!
