I am creating a classroom based course lead by a virtual instructor. The requestor has asked if it's possible for the "instructor" to personally address and welcome each new user throughout the course. Is this possible? If it is, how is it done?
So I guess he wants the character *the pre loaded one's in storyline* to somehow "know" who that user is that is taking that particular course and address them personally by name through the course. I know that it's possible when you build a course within certain LMS systems but I don't know if storyline can do that.
So for example if the LMS recognizes that you logged in as "susie" the course is somehow supposed to know you are "susie" too an address you as that in certain areas where I would be addressing the user. Does that make more sense?

Maybe the Text variable option ... that is placed in a welcome message could do the trick ?
only requirement is...if you have already asked for there name some place.
I would like to see an example of how that would be done. I was thinking creating a text variable at the beginning but I am still confused.

Okay, can you show me an example on your thought?
Oh I figured it out, I just have to write a variable reference and add dating entry fields right?
