During our hands-on Articulate 360 training, when we’re working with shapes or images in Storyline 360, we sometimes encounter the need to make those objects semi-transparent. Today, we’re answering the “as heard in training” question: “How Do I Create Transparency?” Adjusting the level of transparency can be a great way to control the vibrancy of an object or add a level of subtlety to your courses. In our example here, we’ve illustrated a few practical use cases for transparency: On the first slide, we’ve added transparency to the background image so
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. The objects in this blog are closer than they appear as we answer this “as heard in training” question: “How can I trigger an object to change size?” With the Emphasis Animations in
How Do I Display “Scrollable” Content On Screen?
At Yukon Learning, we believe that e-Learning should be engaging with graphics, animations, and the like. Sometimes, however, we’re asked to display a large amount of text on screen, such as legal material or a Terms of Service policy. In this blog post, we’ll walk through a specific Storyline 360 build that’s perfect for this use case. The Scrolling Panel is a Storyline 360 feature we really can’t get enough of. It helps us display endless content without ever leaving the page (since space on a single slide is in
How Can I Use the “=NotAssignment” Trigger in Storyline 360?
UPDATE! As of October 2019, the Storyline 360 trigger wizard was updated to use the same intuitive language as the triggers panel so it’s consistent and understandable. For 360 users, “Assignment and Not Assignment” have been replaced with “Set and Toggle.” The language is different, but the steps listed below still work. Learn more about the new trigger workflow here, and then read on! Although not used as often, the “=NotAssignment” (also known as “toggle”) variable/trigger can be a great way to help you create engaging interactions for your learners!
How Can I Highlight Important Information when Users Review Content?
In a recent custom virtual training, a student asked for help in creating scenario-based courses in Storyline. When the scenario arrived to a point where the learner received a quiz question, they wanted the learner to not only be able to review content they had already seen, but to also highlight important information. The main consideration here was that they did not want the information highlighted on the original slide, only when being reviewed. While there are several ways one might accomplish this, one of the easiest ways is to
