Showing Slide Menu

If you build a custom menu page vs using built in Storyline menu.  We typically only build our own menu for greater control and less infringement on screen real estate.

I'm assuming you then "add" real estate to your content area and manually create your menu on the screen itself.  Our company requires use to provide visual narration to the user, in case they do not have audio capabilities at his/her workstation. How do you then use the player's narration/notes function and create a menu within the content area, or do you not worry about the notes/glossary/etc. area within the player?

Hello.  We typically have a page that its sole purpose is a Menu page, a whole separate page, that the user navigates to from the a player menu button or custom menu button on screen. 

That menu is updated and sections checked off when complete, or by using completed states of buttons. 

We give the user reference to where they are at by adding that "locale" or section that they are in for instance as text on a header of each page.  This way when using JAWS or another program, it reads the section they are in when they are on that page.  Does that help?

One other thought on what I have done in the past.  You could also provide a menu looking similar to what Storyline's default one is, but have one that you create graphically on a slide master that shows when you click a menu button or icon on the screen.  Have done this with a toggle button or graphical button similar to the arrow in the default menu, that turns when open, shuts when closed.  This would have your menu partially overlap the content screen when open, then go away altogether when closed. This allow quicker access for the end user without having to leave the page to go to a separate menu page.  Either one should work depending on your preference.

Jeff, thanks for the thoughts.  Gives me something to think about.

No worries, if you need help, let me know.
