Creating Spinning Wheel and Landing on Set Points
Mar 07, 2017
Hi folks :-)
I wonder if you might be able to help...
I am currently trying to work out how to make my wheel of fortune style concept actually function! (Please see attached image). What I am trying to do is make the coloured wheel spin on command (I will create a spin button and perhaps an axis in the middle to point) and land only on the points which have the icons on, but once one icon has been visited it needs to not land on this icon again. (The icons link off to individual lessons).
Would anyone happen to have a template of something similar or just some help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Olivia

Hi Olivia!
I've used JavaScript to create a spinning wheel that randomly lands on different selections. I'm not at my desk this week to play with it but I'd be curious to see if there's s way to control the landing points as you're suggesting.
Here's the one I did: http://www.jackievannice.com/?s=Valentin
Hey Olivia,
Which version of SL do you use? If you are using Storyline 360 you probably can create this effect with the dial interaction.
I'll try to create a demo asap.
I would think that JavaScript is the best way to go, but if you are not skilled in that area it might be difficult. I have been learning about spinning etc in PowerPoint, perhaps that would work for Studio vs 360 or Storyline.
This may be elementary to some but I created a spinner for a monopoly game using a picture with animation then added a clicker. Not sure how to send this as a story file but I did attach a picture. When doing this I just moved the picture once the spinner stopped to the number I chose for the next jump in the game.
Hi June, thanks for sharing that idea! If you'd like to attach your source file here, you'll want to open this thread in ELH, and then click the Add Attachment button at the bottom of the reply window. From there, attach your original .story file (not the published version). I hope this helps!
Hey Paul,
Unfortunately I am not using Storyline 360 :-(
That would be greatly appreciated, thank you so much :)
Thank you Marti, unfortunately at this present time JavaScript is not something I have a huge amount of expertise on :-(
Hey Jackie :-)
Thank you for your example! Really like your creation.
If I manage to achieve it I will post up my idea :-)
Thank you for your response June :) If you're able to attach the Storyline file to this feed that would be fab! Just so I can see what you've created :)
Thank you!
Hi, I had to remove quite a bit of information so here it is. Move the game piece to the right, I didn't realize until it was completed that I went the wrong way on the board...
