Groups in Storyline

Dec 06, 2020

Working on some complex Storyline animations i seldom used Groups before, mainly because they somehow made it difficult to select with Javascript. So i noticed before Groups also have 'accessibility names' and i did try to select them before but then that failed. So working on another complex setup i thought lets test the Groups again and see if i can select them with JS and animate them. Well now that worked. Not sure whether Articulate improved accNames for Groups or if i made errors in setting a group name properly... But as you see here...

2 groups with different elements in it...and both can be targeted by its 'accName'
I did notice that setting an accessibility name for elements in Storyline, you really need to press ENTER when changing the name, else it wont remember it...and thats no fun ;-) So this makes using groups and thus organising your Storyline easier.

Added the Storyline file...
