Cuepoints
Sep 18, 2014
This is probably the most basic thing in the world – but I just can’t see how to do it! Is it possible to have boxes change colour on a cue point on the timeline? I can’t see on the trigger wizard where you bring in the cue point option? Read lots of comments and can see its possible in motion paths in storyline 2 but I am using Storyline 1.. You can see from the pic its a basic slide, and changing the colour of each box on a timer would bring a little life!
Thanks Hannah

See this recent thread here for one possible option to do this in SL1 (using offstage objects to change the state of other objects).
Hi Hannah,
You are correct that it's a feature in SL2, but not in SL1.
As a workaround in SL1, you could add some shapes off screen and place them at the same location as the cue points on the timeline. From there, you could use a trigger to change the state of the object on your screen to it's colored state when the timeline for that offscreen object begins.
I hope this helps!

Geez Michael,
There you go again! Beating me to the punch. I need to up my speeeed!
Off stage objects in SL1 is about the closest comparison you can get to doing this with cue points in SL2. Just be sure to adjust the timeline of each off stage object to start at the point where you want the trigger state to change.
