Problem with PPT buttons in engage

Oct 03, 2012

Hello...I have a PPT deck, and I added buttons with hyperlinks in my deck to move people from one location to the next... they work fine in PowerPoint...

Then, I added branching to bring them back to the main slide (in PPT) using Articulate... So to be clear, the buttons were created in PPT, and launch people from a main screen to a detailed slide... then, I used Articulate to branch so that they come back to the mail slide after completeing the detailed slides.

Here is the problem... The buttons with the hyperlinks only work properly in PPT...in Articulate Preview, they take me to the wrong location... Where do I start checking to figure this glitch out?

Thank you!!

Hi Dawn,

Welcome to Heroes. Have you tried publishing the file for the Web or LMS, and then viewing the presentation that way once it's been uploaded?

Always Happy to Help,

Adrian

Hi Dawn,

To Adrian's point... There are just a couple of things that don't preivew well in Articulate, but work great upon publish. So if you are seeing weird behaviors but are pretty sure you've done it right, try publishing instead of previewing.

Welcome aboard,

Bob
