Storyline - Navigation in freeform quiz
Oct 08, 2012
Hi Heroes,
I've created a series of quizzes for a project that are not graded and are, in effect, flash cards. Learners are presented with a question, select an answer, advance to a detailed feedback slide regardless of how they answer, and proceed to the next question. I would like to allow them to navigate freely among questions so they may randomly review them before they leave the activity.
I have tried creating a button bar for each slide that links to the questions, but many of the questions are hot-spot and clicking the progress bar places a marker there...as if it were a choice...instead of navigating to the selected question. I also tried to reorder the triggers but the up/down arrows are inactive.
I tried placing the progress buttons on a layer and making it visible all the time, but then the base layer becomes inactive. The seekbar is, obviously, not an option because it cannot be scrubbed.
I'm at a loss as to how I can make this work.Any ideas?
Thanks,
=Diane

Diane,
I'm not sure I'm able to visualize. Would you be able to post your file, or shoot a Screenr so we could take a look and better understand?
Thanks!

Hi Mike,
I cannot upload the file; I keep getting a 404 error. Would you please send a link?
Thanks,

Diane,
How large is the file? Or, could you load it to Dropbox and send a link?
Hi Mike,
I've removed 2 videos, which reduced the file size to 10MB...it appears to have uploaded. Let me know if it is not attached. I cannot use Dropbox because my company blocks it.
A little background...this project was started before Storyline and I am importing existing videos. The disabled links on the menu go to slides that would normally have videos where I can use the seekbar and users can scrub it. I cannot use the seekbar in the challenge portion because I would need it to scrub across all question slides. So, I attempted to add navigation buttons with triggers that would allow learners random access to the questions.
As you can see, the first question is a hotspot question and clicking the navigation buttons only adds a hotspot marker and does not advance to the triggered question. My hope is to add the button bar to all questions to allow random access. Any ideas?

Diane,
It seems to be working on this end. The menu bar on the hotspot slide sends me to the other questions when I click on a number.
