I come with a question about javascript (unless there is an other way, but I didn't find it...).
In my project, I have a final slide inviting learners to check the resources available. I already have them activated for my project and I didn't deactivated them slide by slide.
I would like that when entering the slide (or when clicking a button on the slide, but I prefer the other choice...), that the resources open and that the learners don't have to click on the "..." (Resources) button.
Can you tell me how I can build this, if it is possible...
I think you could do this using triggers but I'm not sure if that is what you would want. Each browser treats this differently. If you try this approach with individual files (see below), each browser is going to prompt you to download multiple files. You could zip these all into a single file to download and then create a single trigger to open that zipped file.
Anyway, just a few thoughts. Maybe someone else will come along with a way to do this but if you want them to download multiple files, I would probably zip them up and then create a trigger to fire when the timeline starts or when they click a button.
I don't want to open the resources, I think this is very intrusive for the learner and quite heavy if you have several files or links...
I want the list of resources to open without the learners clicking on the button "Resources", so that the list of files and links available can be seen.
I was thinking of using function toggle, or show, but I fail in every attempt I do... I am not sure I have correctly identify the button "resources". Is "view-content" its right name ?

Caroline,
Perhaps this will work for you?
