Arrays / or even some XML

Hi all,

I hope all is well with everyone.

I'm new to the forums and wanted to (semi request) a feature or two which would help with dealing with creating Storyline content.

First off, a simple feature to coincide with the variables window, an array table or something. Why...

 

New Array Item = "Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3"

Item[0] = "Item 1"

Item[1] = "Item 2"

Item[2] = "Item 3"

 

So if you had a topic title for example you could use the inbuilt function and append i.e. "SlideTitle + Item[numVar]" - when the user clicks an item, a variable counter (numVar) increments or decrements and you get the relevant update. At the moment it seems you have to mainly hard code items, which can be a pain if you have many slides. Is this feature possible without having to resort to JS, which is a might pain when you have to publish scenes which could potentially be very heavy.

 

Alternatively, if this isn't possible would it be possible to implement XML so the same method can be done? It would be great to have content embedded in SL itself, I hope someone on the SL team comes across this and maybe suggests a better way of doing things currently.
