What If I Need the Stops in My Slider to Be Uneven?

February 25, 2021   Yukon Learning    Leave a Comment

In the final portion of our hands-on Advanced Storyline 360 training, we end the session with some fun, easy, and favorite features of mine: sliders and dials! During this segment, we task the students with creating a fairly simple interaction that we use often: showing a timeline of events. In that exercise, the slider has eight stops, and the stops are equal distance apart. When teaching this, however, we’re often asked, “What if I need my slider to stop at points that aren’t equal distance apart?” While there are varying

How Can I Use the “=NotAssignment” Trigger in Storyline 360?

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! I was recently asked about a potential use for this trigger in class and, although there are other ways you could use it, I came up with the following example.

This question was sent to me just this month after a training session. Let me set it up for you… In our advanced class, we teach the students how to build a custom menu and control the navigation of that menu using True/False Variables (aka, Boolean–for the nerds out there). You can view a simplified version of the course here. You can also download that .story file at this link. What is happening in this example is the “visited” states of the buttons are designed to look like an “in

When Does Trigger Order Matter?

July 12, 2017   Yukon Learning    2 Comments

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

How Can I Use a Slider as a Progress Meter?

October 12, 2016   Yukon Learning    3 Comments

Many developers find themselves in need of a progress meter to show a learner how much is left to be completed in an e-Learning module. There are several ways to achieve this in your course.  A slider is a great visual for the learner to see how much is left in the course. The slider also has built-in points, keeping us from having to do any leg work. Let’s explore this “as heard in training” question and use a slider as a progress meter!
