Dynamic audio

Jul 31, 2020

Is there any way to create a Text Entry field that will populate the Text-to-Voice script for a slide?

I am trying to figure out a way to have a learner either enter their own text, or select text that will then be played back as VO on either the same slide or on another slide.

I know I can set up a series of response options that the learner can choose from which can then trigger specific Text-to-speech clips (hopefully in sequence)...but that's not truly dynamic.

Ideas?

Hi Scott,

I have a JS solution using a textbox and Google translate API, but Google unfortunately blocks the POST action after a few requests. The solution involves REST-like URI parsing directly from the textbox. That was all done a long time ago in Storyline 2, though I'm positive it would still work in 3/360 with a few tweaks and possibly a different voice engine.

Let me know if you want me to dig up the story file.
