I'm building my first mock course in Storyline and am unable to figure out how to add specific interactivity from the Content Library to a new layer.
I created three custom tabs on one slide. When learners click the first button, it brings them to a new layer with new content. To break that content down, I want to insert tabs from the Velocity template as an interaction to display that content. However, to access those tabs, I am forced to create a new slide. Am I doing something wrong or am I limited to only Characters, Photos, Illustrations, Icons, and Videos interactions from the Content Library for layers?
I created a new slide and copied the tab interaction over to the ADDIE tab - so it's kind of a tab within a tab...but now am unsure how to configure it to function appropriately.
I wonder if it’s not possible after examining the system-configured tab interaction as it requires multiple layers for each tab…and I need to manipulate the states, layer content and objects all on one layer.
Nevermind! I think I figured it out ----multiple layers that duplicate the layer I copied the tab interaction over to and then adding triggers to each one. Thanks again for your initial tip!

Hi, Heather, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes! ✨
When you're within the layer, the options you have are to insert Characters, Photos, Illustrations, Icons, and Videos from the Content Library:
If you want to insert a slide template from the Content Library, you need to do it by creating a new slide:
After creating the slide, you can copy and paste some of the objects to your layer, but it will be a manual process.
Let me know if you have additional questions!
Thank you so much for your reply.
