A client of mine wants to have a job aid slide and he only wants one copy of it in Articulate Storyline, but he wants the user to jump to it from multiple points in the course and then return to where they came from. I tried screenshot and upload to a webpage and then using a link, but it said that it had to be opened in a new window which will not be acceptable to him. Any ideas? I am fairly new at this so I can use all the help I can get!
Thank you, he wants to be able to get to one slide from multiple other
slides and return to his previous one no matter which one it was. I thought
the only way to make it work was to make multiple copies of the slide and
put it as a layer on each one he is coming from or use multiple buttons on
the destination slide to get back to each origin.
If it is only one slide then you don’t need to track where they are you just need to use the previous slide trigger so which ever navigation you use the trigger is previous and will put them back where they left from.

You can add a lightbox slide to the player and that allows the user to access at any point and not leave their current slide.
You can also add a lightbox slide button and maybe put it on the master slide.
Check out this article.
No reason why you cannot have it as a slide and use jump to previous slide ro get back, or put it on a slide master layer.
