I have a series of files created in 2009 that are from a laboratory microscope, allowing the users to zoom in, scroll, etc around a series of images from a specific microscope. They are in an .svs format. The instructor is looking to update his learning module from HTML-based to Articulate but wants to keep the original files for the students to interact with (rather than screenshots, screen recording).
Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this??? Please let me know if you have ideas or would like to see what I'm talking about. Although, I don't have a specific .svs file reader, I can get to the classrooms that do have these files installed.
Is it also possible to have the student take a screen shot using a button from within storyline of the part of the slide they want to submit to the instructor?
You can use leaflet.js and embed that as a web object to view and interact. Screenshot would be more difficult not impossible, you may want to find a javascript programmer to help.

The .svs format needs a special viewer. If that's in the webpage he used previously, you could insert that as a web object.
Do you have an example of what he currently has? I can test some ideas.
I have svs files I would like to share as well. Is it possible for it to only show the slide and not the site menu?
