WashingtonDC.story text provided where?

Oct 29, 2013

In the tutorial demonstrating how to add a marker, the presentation states text is provided but I cannot locate it. I downloaded the practice2 folder, but am not sure to what this is referring. Obviously I'm a new user, and obviously I can dummy my own text, but I'm wondering if I'm missing something. Thanks

In the Add an Interactive Marker to an Image tutorial - Getting Started with Articulate Storyline>Create Interactive Slides

Practice Activity beneath the video states "copy from placeholder.txt in the practice folder"

I downloaded practice2.zip and extracted three folders - Image, Storyline File, and Video and in none of these were there any txt files.

Hope that helps you find it.

Hi Ashley and Tracy,

Not sure about the text files you're referring to, Tracy, but I at least thought I'd add a couple links in case it helps Ashley help you!

I think the page that contains the file downloads Tracy is referring to is here at least

The link to the folder containing the practice files is on that page

3 folders are included in the download: one contains 5 images (.jpg), one contains 3 SL files, and one contains a video (.wmv)

Thanks Becky for sharing the link - I downloaded the practice folder and did see that the placeholder.txt is missing as Tracy said. I'll be connected with a colleague to see if we can get that updated. 

In the meantime, Tracy, it's not an essential part of creating the example shared, so you could definitely use your own text. I'll let you know what I find out about updating it though.
