I have created an eLearning, and the users really prefer the "Slide Only View" as it give them a little more real estate and a better view. The problem is that there is a pdf attachment that learners need to access during the course. When I choose "Slide Only View" as the starting view in the player template, there is no way to access the attachments. Is there a workaround for this?
Let me make sure I understand. In the quiz, I've opened the slide that has the graphic that I want the user to click on to open the pdf. I can go to the Insert tab and click on Hyperlink, and then would the address simply be data/downloads/yourfilename? Thanks in advance for your help.
I tried that and published, and got an error that the path or internet address is incorrect. Does the document need to reside somewhere in specific? For "yourfilename" are you referring to the actual name of the file, or the name that I give it is an attachment in Articulate? Any ideas would be appreciated!

you can add links e.g data/downloads/yourfilename
Great tip Phil thanks, hadn't thought of that.

yes just swap yourfilename for your file name and delete the http:// that is automatically added
pdfs are great as office docs often throw errors to test you need to publish to cd or upload to the web

the actual filename but remove the first /
so it is data/downloads/yourfilename.pdf
It works fine in presenter and on text in quizmaker, never tried it on shapes but cannot see a problem
