I am creating a course with a reflective journaling piece. I would like the learner to be able to enter their journal entries into my course, and then print them at the end.
I know that when I used Storyline 1 the output format was a big issue. We could print it, but it was in an awful table that couldn't be altered. Has this been changed? If not, does anyone have a good work around?
Here are a couple of resources that might set you on the right track. They require you to use JavaScript, but I believe both of these are pretty thorough.
Hi, Carrie Ann -- While we are unable to provide support for JavaScript, you may find it helpful to share your file so others in the community are able to take a closer look and share some ideas.
As Christie said, if you can share your files, we may be able to have more insight into your issue. One odd thing that had happened when I tried some of these caused the same problem, no effect on click. I replaced the button I used and for some reason it worked just fine. Other than that we may need to look under the hood.
Hi, Carrie Ann -- Many thanks for sharing your file, and hopefully you will receive lots of great input from the community soon! I also wanted to share (in case you may not have had a chance to take a look at it), here is our JS Best Practices sheet. All the best with your project. :)
Nothing too serious popped out at me. The JavaScript and Entry boxes were referencing textEntry1 when they should have been referencing textEntry though. I recopied the code and placed it into the button.
I've attached an updated file as well as output that should be working.

Hope this helps.
Thank you Bill! I am going to try this out today!
I followed the instructions in the first article, however nothing happens when I click on the print button. :(
I double checked my java script, and I have moved the two files to the published folder. I am not sure what is wrong.

I appreciate you looking into this issue. I have attached the unpublished slide. Thank you.
