Menu options?
Jan 22, 2018

LaVon Bowman
FYI - my Menu option is currently set to "Restricted".
My lesson in Articulate 360 is complete with one exception. After the user has completed the lesson successfully can I make the menu option to change to "Free" so they can click on any slide to review that material without taking the entire course over again from the beginning?
Also, can if they had not completed the lesson how do I set it so that they begin the lesson where they left off?

Hi LaVon
the restricted menu means they cannot progress forward, however once they have been on a slide and move to the next slide, they can click back on the previous slide in the menu if they wish.
In the player options
Question 1.
After a learner has completed the lesson and closed the course and then wants to review the material. When they reopen the lesson to review material can the menu then be open or "Free" because they have completed and passed?
Question 2.
If they are interrupted and close the lesson and return later. Can it take them to where they left off?
Hi LaVon
Q1. You can't change the menu option from Restricted to Free on subsequent visits - however some Javascript guru might be able to help with that.
Q2. Yes, See image above and set the 'prompt to resume' option.

Hi LaVon
go to the Insert menu > Remove Freeform. That will remove the correct/incorrect feedback layers and turn it back to a normal content slide and should remove it from the quiz listing on the results slide.
Note you may have to tweak how the DnD works once you remove the interaction
Thank you.
Wendy,
I sent in two examples that I needed help with. I have solved both of those problems. Please let them know that they do not need to spend time on this now. I so much appreciate that Articulate is there to help. Thank you.
Hi LaVon
this is the public forum - if you've logged a support ticket with Articulate they would have sent you a Case number in an email - you'd need to reply to them and let them know.
Hi LaVon!
I just took a peek into your case, and I see that you sent us a message stating that you have resolved the issue. Thanks for letting us know!
I have a question that I cannot seem to resolve.
How to make the Next button on the Results slide disabled unless the learner passes with 80% or greater.
Can you help me with that?
Add a trigger to the results slide
That did not work. I just do not know what to try next. I am attaching the Triggers panel for the Results Slide. If you see something please let me know. Thank you.
Move the Change Next trigger to the top of the trigger panel
That worked! Happy Day! Thank you so much. Why is something so simple so hard? Have a great weekend!
Glad that worked LaVon - it's not so hard when you know Storyline's rules.
Trigger order is very important. See this article for future reference.
Can you help a bit more?
The first time it worked and now it does not work. attached another capture of the Triggers menu with the trigger moved to the top. Please let me know if you see something else,
Thanks,
Hard to say without seeing your file LaVon - can you upload the .story file? Just use the grey ‘add attachment’ button at the bottom of the post
I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
Hi LaVon
I thought you were referring to the Player Next button but I see you have a custom Next button, so add the trigger to the fail layer
Change state of Next button to disabled when timeline starts on fail layer.
Any reason you aren't using the Player Next button on this slide like you have on all the other slides in the module?
No reason just at all. Better to just use the default Next button? I will try that and let you know how this works. Thank you for all your time and experience.
If you use the Player Next button leave the trigger as you had it on the base layer at the top. If you use your custom button, add the trigger to the fail layer.
I selected the default Next button and created a trigger that "Change state of Next button to disabled when timeline starts". I when through the course and at first failed and click Retry Quiz. Passed this time but the Next button is still disabled.
I got it! I added another trigger Change the state of the Next button to Normal if Results.PassPcent is Greater than or equal to Results.PassPoint.
It worked. Thank you for hanging in there with me. :-)
Attached is your updated file using the Player Next button.
Here is a Peek video of it working - fail first time, retry, Pass quiz and Next is enabled.
Cool! Thank you for sharing. This just gave me back my weekend.
