There are a few ways to edit your web objects in Storyline 360
\n
\n\n
This method opens the Edit Web Object window where you can modify the following properties:
\n
| \n Address \n | \n Change the URL that appears in the Address field, or click the Browse button and navigate to a folder on your local computer that contains html content. \nIf you use local html content, be sure there's a file called index.htm or index.html in the folder you select, as well as all supporting files for the web content. \nYou can click Test Link to make sure your web content launches correctly. \n |
| \n Behavior \n | \n Decide when your web object should appear. Check the Load automatically box to launch your web content without learner interaction. Uncheck the box to launch it when learners click it. \nTip: For a web object set to load automatically, give its placeholder a meaningful image so learners know what it is. Right-click the web object placeholder and select Replace Picture. Browse to the image you want to use and click Open. If you change your mind about the image you added, right-click it again and select Reset Picture. \n |
| \n Appearance \n | \n Decide how your web object should display. Choose either Slide or New browser window. \nCheck the Scale with slide box so your web content scales with the slide. Note that scaling web content can cause blurriness. Uncheck the box to prevent scaling when you need text and images to remain sharp. This option is only available for embedded web objects. \nYou can choose how the new window will look for web content that displays in a new browser window. Use the Browser Controls drop-down to manage controls for the new window. Use the Window Size drop-down to set a size for the new window. \n |
\n

Tip: If your web content is located on the Internet or an intranet, learners will need the proper security permissions to access it. Otherwise, the web content won't work.
