Does anybody have some tips they can share for building menus in Storyline courses? I'm not using the menu in the player, so I'm building a drop down menu in my course. I thought I could use hyperlinks in a text box, but the hyperlinks seem to be tied to the text box and are all running together. Is it possible? Help me, Obi Wan Kenobi......you're my only hope!
Obi Wan is not available right now so you are stuck with me. The best way to go about this is using individual textboxes (or better still, shapes with text inside) and applying hyperlinks to each of them, one by one. Tedious, I know, but also the best practice.

Hi Stacey,

Thanks for the reply! I appreciate all the superhero help I can get.
I was afraid I'd have to add them individually. I was hoping there was an easier way. I'd better get busy then.
Hi Stacey,
Also not Obi Wan or Batman...but, you may want to look at a few other examples of how to set up a custom menu:
Using a lightbox for a menu
Creating a drop down list interaction
The latter sounds more in line with what you're thinking, and involves using states to make it look like a normal drop down menu.
Hope that helps!
