Web Objects hidden until user rolls over
Mar 28, 2018
I've uploaded my module to Articulate Review to test an embedded web object from SurveyMonkey. The place where the web object was inserted just looks like a blank white space unless the user rolls mouse over the area. (Incidentally, this same thing happened with an accordion interaction I built in Engage in another module.) Anyone know how to make web objects and Engage interactions appear automatically without having to provide instructions that the user must first scroll over a blank area? Above is the link to the single slide I'm referring to. Thanks!

Hm, I tried your link on my laptop and mobile device. In both cases, the web object (survey) does show up without having to move the mouse over. I used Chrome on Windows and Android.
Thank you so much for testing and providing feedback. I was using the IE browser, which is what most people have at my company. Rats!

Hey Christine,
I see the same behavior when viewing your content in IE that you mentioned above.
Curious if adjusting the Publish Format would allow this to work better for you?
If you'd like to share your .story file so that we could take a look, feel free.
Yes, that is the publish setting I had chosen. I really appreciate your taking a look for me. This module is in very rough draft form. I didn't even work on it once I realized the SurveyMonkey wasn't functioning properly.
I replied to you, Leslie, but I think I replied to the whole thread rather than to your comment. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks!
Hi Christine,
Thanks for sharing the file! I took a look and uploaded it to Review here, and that version I published HTML5 only. I tested that in Chrome as well and I didn't need to mouse over it, nor did I in IE11. Did you need to publish with Flash included, or can you use the HTML5 output on it's own?
Hi Ashley, Thanks so much for taking a look at my file. I clicked on your link, and it does work perfectly. Unfortunately, I've been told by our LMS admins that I should publish in Flash with HTML5 backup. Also, only the IE browser works with our LMS, so everyone who accesses the module will be using IE. If you don't have any other ideas for me, maybe I'll try publishing in HTML5 and uploading to our LMS just to see what happens?
