When we teach interactive elements in our hands-on Articulate Storyline 360 training, someone will inevitably ask: “How do we keep learners from interacting until the narration ends?” This can be crucial in compliance-based e-Learning, ensuring the learners receive all content and don’t skip ahead. Let’s look at ways we can temporarily lock interactions for this “as heard in training” question. As you’ll undoubtedly hear us say in training: “There’s always more than one way to accomplish it in Storyline 360.” Today, we’ll discuss three methods for temporarily locking interactions. Method
Can I Use a Slider to Page Through a Document?
When we teach sliders in our hands-on Storyline 360 training, we can see learners thinking of possible use cases, like “can I use a slider to page through a document?” Maybe you have a policy document that must be read, or a clinical reprint that needs to be reviewed. These are great use cases for using a slider to page through the existing documentation! Let’s explore this “as heard in training” question today. The Document First, we need to ensure the document is in an image format for use in
Can I Change Default Quiz Question Feedback?
Do you find yourself going to each feedback box and making the same change for every question you write? Instead of the original “Correct” title with “That’s right! You selected the correct response,” you might say in its place, “Fantastic” and “Nice work, you just earned another star!” In today’s blog, we’ll uncover the fastest and most streamlined solution for updating feedback text. Several years ago, we wrote a blog article addressing a common question we receive on changing the way question feedback looks. In today’s blog, we want to
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
When Does Trigger Order Matter?
There’s one moment in particular that brings me extra delight as an instructor during our Storyline workshops. It’s that look of awe from participants when we draw attention to a trigger that works because of the sequential order of the triggers themselves. As you may know, triggers execute all of the action in our Storyline builds. Aside from a few timeline-based events, we see most of our slide actions listed in the Triggers Panel. However, the sequential order of triggers within the panel can also be significant. You may or
