Flash Card Effect

Well, for one, you can create this one effect in Presenter and publish it out.  Find the SWF in the published output and import into Storyline.

In Storyline itself, I'd probably look at doing this with a triggered zoom on the slide for the first click.  Then use a transition to a new slide to try and approximate the flip.  Need to experiment . .

Would something like this work?  https://s3.amazonaws.com/GJW-SL/flash-card/story.html

I used playing cards just to get this done quickly.  3 slides.

Wow! That is great! Thank you! I think using it with slide layers would work well!

Great.   Here's the story file.  Remember, the zoom does not work with a layer yet.  Has to be the base.

These links do not work for me.  Have they expired, or been moved?  

Hey Peggy!

This thread is a bit older so I'm not sure if Gerry is still subscribed here.

You may want to also try reaching out to him by using the "Contact Me" feature in his E-Learning Heroes profile. 🙂

Thanks, Ali.  I'm new to Storyline and didn't think to try using the contact feature.

Hi, Peggy.

Is this what you are looking for?

Gerry - that's what I'm looking for :). Do you happen to have the .story file you'd like to share?

Yes, Gerry, that's exactly what I would like to do. 

Sorry for the delayed reply.  I've been preparing a demo and not getting too far outside that box for the last week.

No problem. :)

I created my own animation effect using 5 shapes and two layers.  I created the shapes in PowerPoint as, unfortunately, Storyline does not yet equal PowerPoint's graphics ability.  (something that is sorely needed, IMVHO.)

I've attached my .story file.  It was done in SL360 so you need that or SL3.  Should be pretty apparent what I did.  Pretty simple.

Hope it helps! :)

thank you so much!

Thanks you, Gerry. I tried to create GIFs to spin using Photoshop, but it was too much work to start out with a still image, then the turning GIF, and then a static image again... Also, the final result didn't look as smooth as this.  So, thanks again!

Sharon and Peggy--glad it helped! :)

Here are a couple of other simpler things that I've done with playing cards using standard animations and layers.  It's from a much larger course and I can only show a small bit of it (and I cannot share the .story file).  If you launch it, click on the two room that the footsteps lead to. 

Hopefully, you can figure out the simple things that I did:  Two interactions with playing cards.

This course was something we converted from custom Flash programming into Storyline so I'm not the original author of the content, just the "re-creator."

Thank you Gerry. It's quite engaging. Is it possible for you to share just a part of this story where the cards appear as a rack and then are available to click one by one? You can remove the content if you want. I know you can't share the entire story.

This was super helpful! Thank you so much!
