FAQ

I have an Engage FAQ slide with ten slides. Currently, the viewer cannot navigate away from the slide unless he/she goes over all questions. How can I make it possible to navigate away from the slide without having to go over all questions? to make it a sort of reference FAQ page. In the Player Templates>Navigation the User Navigation is set to: Free-user can view slides in any order. please help.
Thanks,
Anton

Hi Christine,
Hope things are sane with you. I was trying to locate instruction about Alt Text in Presenter, but could not find any. I just craeted Alt Text for link in Power Point; but I could not see the alt text after publishing. Can I create Alt Text for links?
Thank you,
Anton.
Hi there Anton!
I hope you're doing well :)
Actually, it's not a built-in option, but there is a thread on the topic that may help you out with this:
Alternate Text
Good luck with the project Anton, and have a great Friday!

Hi Christine,
I have completed a project with narration. I dont know why, but before publishing I changed the ppt file's name, and then published. I lost all narration. Is there a way i can retrieve the narration audio?
Thanks,
Anton
Hi Anton,
I may be a problem with the new file name. I wonder if something "broke" when it was changed? Have you tried changing the name back to see if that fixes it?
You might also want to try the suggestions in the article below:
Audio is missing or lost in published Presenter '09 presentation
Let me know if that helps.
Thanks! :)
I tried to rename it back to the old name, but it did not work. Thanks for sending me the link.
Have a great weekend.
Good day Christine:
I have an older published version which includes audio.
Few questions on this: where is the audio of this version stored? Is it stored as a separate file? Is it possible to save the audio as a separate file and then import it to a different power Point?
An issue with repositioned text box.
In the published version, which includes audio, one of the text boxes in one of the slides was relocated from its original place. I am trying to position it back to where it belongs. Because it is a published version which includes the audio that I do not want to lose, I cannot reposition the text box using Power Point. So I am trying to change the location of the text box in either the html or the xml files. I have background in web development and I'm very familiar with html, and JavaScript. xml is new to me (so I'm trying to learn it now) but I managed to locate the slide.
I have located the files and opened them using Notepad (both html and xml), located the specific slide with the text box. But I did not locate any parameters for its location. Where can I find the text box's parameters? is there a specific file that includes the parameters?
Thank you,
Anton
Hi Anton,
For modifying the output HTML and files, I'm afraid that's a bit out of my scope. I don't have any suggestions for this, unfortunately. Your best bet would be to get access, if possible, to the original Presenter package or file so you can modify it within the project itself. If you cannot get access to that package, it might be best to start a new thread and see if one of our community coding experts can give you some advice :)
The situations pretty similar for the audio file - you'll need to have access to the package for the course.
Presenter stores your audio files in a PPTA file. You can export audio using the Audio Editor in Presenter. Here’s how:

Hi Christine,
Is there a way to add a button in the "Faild" resuls page that allows the user to take the whole traning from the beginning?
Thanks,

Hi Anton! Have you seen this tutorial about utilizing a 'Retry' button on your Failed Results slide? I think that this is what you are looking for. Hope this helps and have a great day!
Hi there,
Can I add Review, Print, and Retry, Finish buttons (4) to the result page in Quiz maker?
Thanks.
Hi there,
Can I add Review, Print, Retry, and Finish buttons (4) to the result page in Quiz maker? I do not have Sotryline. Thanks.
never mind. I got it.
Thank you anyway.
Thanks for the update Anton! If it's something that you think would help the community out in the future, I hope that you would share your results here.
Thanks, Leslie. Another question, I have created a file in Articulate Presenter '09 then opened it in Articulate '13 and saved it. Is there a way I can open it again in '09? I need to publish it in '09 so I can use a compatible skin that I like.
I have a glossary with over a hundred terms in it. I have the interaction set to leave at any time.
The articulate help is telling me that when the course is set to restricted in Studio 13 that you have to view every item.
Is this a bug? If so when can I expect a fix. If it has been changed from Studio 9 to function this way then you have a very angry customer.
I use glossary's in almost every course. The whole point is to be able to get in read what you need and leave at anytime..
Hi Anton! Are you utilizing Studio '09 and Studio '13 on different machines? You should not be running both on the same machine.
When you upgraded your project from '09 to '13, then a backup file should have been created that you could utilize.
Your existing projects won't be changed unless you open them in Studio '13. When you open an existing project in Studio '13, you'll be asked to upgrade it. A backup copy will be created in case you decide to go back to the earlier version.
Hi Ron and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
Can you give me some information about your project? Sounds like you are inserting an Engage Interaction into Presenter? Are you publishing it as a slide, which does put the user into the unified player and changes up navigation a bit, or are you publishing as a player tab so that the user can access as needed and leave at any time?
Hi Leslie,
I worked all day yesterday importing audio files into presenter. I did it one-by-one, synchronized it and saved it. This morning I opened the file and all the audio files are gone. I don't mind doing it again, but I need to make sure tomorrow they will stay. Any idea what happened to them?
Hi Anton!
Thanks, Leslie. I always work ona local drive. The article did not add to what is known to me. However, I was able to extract the audio files form a previous published version of the presentation. Thanks again for your help.
Thanks for the update Anton.
Hi Leslie,
Hope you're well. In Quizmaker, I like the option given to the user to add her/his name to the Results Page. Is there a way that would enable the same possibility on the Pass Result page? thanks.
Hi Anton!
Are you referring to the ability to add a user name when printing results? Here is an article on how to do so on the Pass Results Slide.
Not really. I want to add the user's name to the Pass Results page not the Print Results page. I do not see that Presenter allows for that. Is there a way I can play with the code?
