Design quandary
Aug 14, 2012
Greetings Articulate community. I am working on a module the requires me to insert 14 PDF documents that list state requirements for underage alcohol sales.
The sponsor does not want them placed in the module as attachments; they are concerned that they will go unused. They want me to design a graphic interface where the learner could click on their state and be taken to the slide (location) where the document is located.
I may or may not be able to upload documents as part of the SCO, I have not received an answer from our LMS provider yet.
I believe that Presenter only supports "next" and "previous" hyperlinks, so I cannot find a way to successfully use hotspots or any other link support from within the module to go to 14 separate slides.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.
Eric

You can design buttons onto the slide that hyperlinks to the relevent slide.
In the navigation tab, you can then set the next and previous behavior for that particular slide.
My presenter install is gimped on my laptop, otherwise I would have attached screenshots.
You could find a map image of the US that has each state "sliced". Import into PPT and then just right click on the state image and have it go to a certain slide #. Then at the end of each state-specific slide have the next button go to the "bring everyone back together" page. Previous button would go back to the map. (control the branching of previous/next buttons in Slide Properties)
You may also want to lock the "map" slide to make sure that they select a state. (done in Slide Properties.)
Hope this helps.
