Object Trigger Question

Sep 04, 2013

Hi - I am creating my second course in Articulate. I know this feature worked properly for me on the last one. I need to have two slides have a link to a pdf document. I have created an Object Trigger - URL/File and click on the file I want. First off - when I check it - it doesn't open the file itself but takes me to the folder containing it. Then when I publish it tells me it is not a folder or directory?? However - under the Resources it is there and if I click on it from there then it works without issue?? I don't know what to do. I tried making it a hotspot and doing it that way but get the same issue. I'm thinking it is a network issue here at work but not sure? Any ideas?

Hi Paul and welcome to E-Learning Heroes! The word network has caught my attention.

Always save and publish to your local hard drive (typically your C: drive). Working on a network drive or an external (USB) drive can cause erratic behavior, such as file corruption, an inability to save changes, and loss of resources. You can read more about that here.
