This is actually my first E-Learning Challenge! I'm new to using Storyline, so using the challenges for inspiration has helped me learn how to use the platform. For this challenge, I went back to #518 Designing Performance Meters for Learner Feedback. While the design is relatively simple, I learned how to:
- Create and edit slides and slide layers
- Create and edit states
- Create and use variables
- Create and stack triggers
This project in particular helped me gain a better understanding of how triggers stack. After banging my head on the wall for hours, I finally figured out that my “jump to slide X when user clicks Y” trigger was stacked above my “set variable to True when user clicks Y”, meaning that the variable never changed because the trigger above it was fulfilled first and then the slide changed. Such an easy fix for hours of frustration.
I’m looking forward to learning more and pushing myself farther in the new year. Any advice the community has for me is greatly appreciated!

Lovely way to warm the winter months Donna! I get the triggers stack gig. I remember my own challenges learning things about Storyline. The fire meter was fun to see light up!
Keep following the ELH challenges, you'll learn new things. And I'm always AI browser searching anytime I have a question. It gives you a summary suggestion then a multitude of sites that may answer that question--including ELH. Reduces the head banging. :)
Then if I can't find it, I post in community where I find helpful folks willing to jump in with options.
Enjoy the journey and here's to growing even more in 2026!
