I have a fully developed course of some 140 slides, complete with internal interactive slides within each of the five chapters and a final assessment once the student views all five chapters. I would like to burn the course to a CD and run it at a booth at a conference.
Is there any way to disable the interactive slides and final assessment and have the non-interactive slide content run as a loop? Or, would I have to create a parallel course and remove all the interactions and assessment? I'm guessing the latter but hoping for the former!
It'll be a bit of work, so I'd advise making a copy of the course (save as or import into a new file) and then you would need to adjust all the slide properties to advance automatically and/or the trigger to jump to next slide when the slide timeline ends. Also for your final slide, you'll need to set a trigger for that one to jump back to the beginning slide. Anything you've got to show on layers or within lightboxes or similar likely won't be seen as the user isn't going to trigger those elements with a click (you could trigger them based on timeline events, but again a lot more work to change your course set up).
I'm not sure where in my memory I "thought" I remembered some type of "master" control that might allow for disabling the standard time delays between slides and more.
I appreciate your quick response--as with so many Heroes!
You can't export Storyline to Powerpoint - so my guess is Walt was thinking, why build it in Storyline to begin with. But if it's already in Storyline - then your options are limited.

No, I was thinking that PowerPoint may have been where you got the memory.

Hi Hilliard,

Thanks, Ashley!

No problem Hilliard- maybe you were thinking of Presenter or another non-Articulate tool? Either way - hope that solution helps!
PowerPoint gives you those options.
Hi, Walt,
Are you talking about exporting a Storyline presentation directly to PowerPoint? Perhaps via Microsoft Word? I wasn't aware of that option.

Thanks for the clarification, Ashley!!

Thanks, Walt. That may indeed have been what I was trying to piece together.
