Add a custom button with the previous and next buttons

Hi Jeff.

I do not believe that placement is currently available.

It would be lovely to have a "button area", (for want of a better name...) like this.

Perhaps we could call it something more interesting - a "...clickable entity silo" for example?

I would really like this too, I am looking to do something similar.

As Bruce says, it cannot be done, you could ad it as a custom tabon the player at the top but the bottom of the player is locked out to us, hopefully this will change

 I also like having a home or menu type functionality in the course, but like using the player navigation as it frees up more real estate on the slide versus creating my own custom buttons on the slide itself. We've switched functionality and are now using the course name (which we put on the slide itself and is the same throughout the course) as the home button. This mirrors what most people are used to seeing with websites where clicking the company logo or name usually takes you to their home page. We've simply called this functionality out as the start of the course until it becomes standard knowledge.

I'm new to Articulate software and would also like to create my own custom buttons.  I see these posts were created in 2012 - is there any way now in 2014 that one can customize/add new buttons to the player?

Thanks B

Hi Belinda,

• We can not add custom buttons in Storyline player. However we can customize look and feel of the player and all tabs/buttons on it. 
• In Storline, it is possible to remove the default PREV & NEXT buttons and create your own. 

Here are two links for detailed information:

Hi

I've made a new project.
I want to know your opinion about my project and how I improve it.
I've changed player buttons on this project.
Thanks

Hi, Javad -- Thanks for reaching out, and while I will defer to your fellow community members to share their suggestions and opinions on your project, I did want to let you know you would also be welcome to reach out for design input over here in our Building Better Courses forum, as well. :)

If anyone is still looking to do this, I found a workaround.  I don't have a need for the Submit button, so simply changed its display text to HOME in the player settings, and then changed the action to go to the slide I needed it to go to.  The home is the sub menu rather than the main home page, but that's fine as I just enable it and pick the slide destination on each slide that its required.

Thanks for popping in to share your solution Karyn :)

Hello Javad.  I am very interested in how you were able to customise the bottom buttons on your template.  Could you let me know how this was done please? Thank you :)
