In Articulate, an exit option could be included in the toolbar (top right) for the user to exit out of the presentation at any time. I don't see that option in Storyline. Am I missing it?
It's not a built-in option but you can easily add an Exit button from the Player Properties dialog (see below). Here is some info on customizing the player.
Whether I add an Exit button through the Player (in which case it appears on every slide in the course), or I create and customize an Exit button just for the very last slide, the button does not work for me in either Chrome or Firefox, only Internet Explorer. Any suggestions for getting around that? (Right now I have it both as a Player feature on every slide and as a customized button on just the last slide; I will remove one or the other once I can get it working in all browsers). Thank you!
Unfortunately, security restrictions in some modern web browsers prevent windows from closing themselves, so the Exitcourse trigger will not close the browser window. You can read more about this in our knowledgebase article.

You have now modified your player to include the button.
Thanks Michael and Owen for your responses. Knew it had to be an option, just couldn't find it! Thanks again.....
Hi Beverly! Glad that Michael and Owen were able to help you out here and thanks for the update
