Every year, the Yukon Learning development team develops hundreds of courses across multiple industries and topics. Many of these customers are e-learning developers who have taken Articulate training with us and create their own courses. We often receive questions from these developers/students about some of the less tangible aspects of creating e-learning courses. Recently someone asked, “We’ve taken training from you, so we know how to use Storyline; but how do we create courses that look like the ones you’ve built for us? How can we tap into the same
Why Isn’t My Icon Button Working?
In Articulate Storyline 360, triggers make it easy to turn almost any object on a slide into a button. You can create buttons out of shapes, pictures, Content Library characters, and of course, our all-time favorite – icons! Icons are popular in modern design, as it makes it easy for learners to quickly recognize and understand visual references (also known as “low fidelity” imagery).

So, now imagine…an incredibly simple solution. During our hands-on Storyline 360 training, we work with audio in various ways. There’s ample opportunity for the aforementioned hullabaloo of overlapping sound and this common “as heard in training” question: “Why is My Audio Overlapping?” If you peek at our e-Learning example here, we’ve created a common click-and-reveal interaction with audio in
How Can I Trigger an Object to Change Size?
Perhaps you need to create the illusion of an object moving closer or farther away, maybe you want to animate data in an infographic, or you’re resizing an object to help draw learner focus to it. For these reasons and more, resizing slide elements is a discussion that comes up frequently during our hands-on Storyline 360 training.
