I am building a module where I am talking about the importance of observation skills. I wanted to start off by creating an exercise to spot the differences between pictures. Is there any creative way to do this in Storyline? I am new to this program and am still learning what can and can't be done in this great new product. Any suggestions are appreciated.
The first thing that jumps into my mind is using Hotspots. You can place them over the differences in the pictures and trigger them to pull up more information, jump to a new slide, keep "score" on how many differences they have found, etc. Might be a good place to start your creative process
Thanks for the reply and suggestion. I honestly didn't think of hotspots. Does storyline allow for multiple hotspots on one page or would I have the user continue to return to the same image each time so that they can select them all?
You can definitely add multiple hotspots to the same slide. And also, you can add multiple triggers to the same hotspot. For example, you might assign a trigger to display additional information when a user hovers over the hotspot, and you might also add a trigger to perform an action, such as jumping to a different slide, when a user clicks on it. To learn how to add and manage triggers, take a look at this tutorial.

That's great Peter! You've given me some ideas to play around with. Many thanks for your help.
