Interactive Table with functions
May 06, 2015

Hey guys,
Basically I am trying to create inside articulate something akin to an excel spreadsheet, which the user can input some numbers, which will have an affect and change other numbers based of a function.
Is there any easy way to go about this?
I'm already aware of the fact that Storyline 2 doesn't support tables so I thought maybe I'd be able to put one together with a bunch of boxes. I'm just not to sure how to go about getting the variables to work the way I want if at all.
Also if theres a Flash solution for this I'd be inclined to try that.
Thanks,

Hi Lewis! My first thought is to use a web object to embed an actual spreadsheet from Excel Online. https://office.live.com/start/Excel.aspx
You can use regular excel formulas/functions, etc and depending on what you need it to do that might be a great option.
Well I need the learner to able to chance values within the table and ideally I want it inside the player and not it's on page.
Is that do-able with web objects?
So I just went with going about it the long way (my list of triggers and things are far too long) and it's worked out pretty good.
However I wonder if there is any way to prevent a NaN entry from popping up.
Also I get some weird font issues inside the input boxes.
Would be great if anyone could help me out
I think if you embed it as a web object within an SL slide you can enable them to make changes to the sheet, etc via Office Live. Sounds like it would be much easier.
