Changing slide from javascript and getting the current one

Hello, I'm building a QA tool for our storyline courses, so our clients can leave comments about the content. this would make it easier for us to have all our data in the same place instead of emails, word/powerpoint documents, ...

Anyway, if the client want something to be changed on the forth slide, the QA tool needs to know where we are so I can save the comment for the correct page.

What I'm currently doing is creating a trigger that execute javascript when the timeline starts that call something like you_are_here("1.1"); and you_are_here("1.2"); on the 2nd page. While it's easy and quick to do, we have some huge courses coming in production and copy/pasting the everywhere while changing the page number will be error prone. I found out about the master slide and that I can create a single trigger that will be magically duplicated for every slides. But then it would always be page 1.1. I thought of coding a little post publish script that would edit user.js with the slide id from data found in frame.xml <slidelink>. A bit weird, but it would work.

A new function in the API would help greatly. GetPlayer().GetCurrentSlideId() would be really nice. Weather it returns a human readable number like we can see in Storyline (1.1) or the slide id (6kZ2v9SE13v or _player.6WJvPWsb3tP.6kZ2v9SE13v).

My second problem, I need to change slide via javascript. What I'm currently doing is on the first slide I create a jump to slide trigger when a variable change to "1.1", then I duplicate it to slide 1 again while changing the slide and the variable target to "1.2". Repeat for each slide in the project. Then in javascript, I call GetPlayer().SetVar("current_page", "3.27"); Again it works well for small projects, but for big ones, we're going to spend as mush time creating all these triggers than the actual content. I need to test this in the master slide tomorrow.

Exposing a new function to the API like JumpToSlide("3.27") or JumpToSlide("_player.6WJvPWsb3tP.6kZ2v9SE13v") would be super great. Maybe add an option in the publish dialog to enable it or not.

Would a change in your API be something that would be doable ? If not is there a better way to achieve what I'm doing?

Thank you.

PS: Storyline is an awesome software that is great to work with!
