Automatically Updating Text once published

Nov 02, 2021

Hi everyone,

I'm developing a module about copyright and an important aspect is knowing after what date something becomes public domain. I was wondering how I could build in this year to have it updated every year, in order to make the module more sustainable and not require somebody to go in once a year to update the module.

So essentially the year presented in this example of 1978 would need to transform into 1979 when the calendar changes from 2021 to 2022.

Is there a way to program this? I was thinking about utilizing the triggers and conditions within Storyline but wasn't entirely sure how I should structure it. Any suggestions? Better ways of doing this? Anything I can explain?

Thanks for your help in advance!
