My first Engage Piece
Jul 25, 2011
Hello Fabulous Gurus-
I have been working with Articulate for a little while now but I've been limiting my interactive pieces to hyperlinks and branching. I'm launching into the 4th module of a series of 8 and think an Engage piece would fit in nicely. I know there are tons of fantastic tutorials out there so can anyone direct me to one that will best teach me the following:
I want to have the head and shoulders of five people, each with text labeling a roll title. I would like the trainee to click a button to read the description of each roll and not be able to proceed until they have read them all. (That's a requirement of my stakeholder) I know I have seen this before, but I'm not sure what it's called.
Also, does a ppt slide act as a placeholder, where I can link audio the same way I do all other slides?
Thanks so much for your help!
Natalia

Hi Natalia,
In regards to your first question, after you publish the interaction to your presentation, you can click the Properties button & choose "Allow user to leave interaction: after viewing all steps" option:
In regards to your second question, can you clarify what you're trying to do with audio?
Thank you, Brian. For the audio, I need to give them instructions at some point. Whether it's a main box of some sort or running automatically when the engage piece first loads. My company insists no one could possibly figure out what to do on their own so I need some way to tell them to click each button and click continue when they're finished.
I'm sorry I don't know the correct Engage terms to use for these things. That would probably make it easier.
I've been playing around in it for a while now and I see how you can add audio to each label. Since the published Engage piece displays as a slide in PPT, I was wondering if I could import audio directly to that slide place holder just like I import it to all of the other individual slides or if it needs to be inside engage as part of the introduction or a label.
Thank you!
Hi Natalia,
I would recommend importing the audio into each step of the interaction. However, you can also import the audio to just the slide in PowerPoint.
Great. Thanks for your help!
