Can anyone tell me - does Storyline have the capability to ensure the learner interacts with everything they should on a page? Or - can the learner just forward through pages without interacting?
Sweet! Thanks to both of you - the demo was helpful as well. This is what I do now - but I use flash and rely on an "fscommand" to communicate with the authoring tool to then allow the learner to continue. Our company will be interested in looking at Storyline more closely then. Thanks so much!
Oh, just thought of another question - can I run a flash movie in Storyline that could then "tell" Storyline to make the "next" button on the page active? I'm asking this because I use flash extensively now and would want to use flash for some pages. I could use an "fscommand" or some other trigger (like maybe a javascript command) - as the trigger to tell Storyline the page is "completed".
This is ALMOST what I need to do, but not quite. Rather than having a Continue or Next button become active, what I want is for a character's state to change (in this case, from worried to relieved) once all objects on a slide have been visited.

Yes--it can. Easily.
Here's something David has created to demo that: http://community.articulate.com/forums/t/12285.aspx
Yes it does you would need to build this functionality in but that would be very easy using the visited state.
Storyline is really a blank canvas product in that most things are possible

Yes, James Kingleys recently showed this https://elearningenhanced.com/blog/2012/05/24/setget-articulate-storyline-variables-within-your-as3-flash-file
Relatively simple to use variables with flash files and javascript
Awesome! Thanks so much Phil! We might buy this product soon.

How can I do this?
Thanks!
Use a trigger to change the state of a character when state of (your objects) equal to visited
Thanks for the quick reply, Phil. I understand how to do that for one object, but not for all of them.
What am I missing?
Oops! Never mind. Finally put the pieces together in my head and it's working just the way I wanted! Many thanks!
Hi Norma! Thanks for the update, glad you figured it out
