Storyline "Scenes"

Hi Rand,

Q1: You can handle a "Scene" as a chapter

Q2: Yes - Just insert the trigger action: "Jump to scene" and you can navigate to the start of the referred scene

Q3: Yes, you will have 1 story-file

Q4: The Player will display all features for all slides but you can adjust the features like seekbar for each slide

Q5: Sure, one slide can be one scene

Q6: You'll insert a new scene and drag&drop the slides to the referred scene. That's all.

As above

Just a way to organise your build files.

Can be played in any order, to any logic you want.

I like to use the Preview function as I build, especially to check navigation and transitions.  But previewing the entire story can be cumbersome.  By breaking my story up into scenes, the "preview scene" option makes a nice manageable chunk to check.

Thanks everyone for all your input!

That answers a lot of questions!

Just one more bit of clarification.

Ralf, you wrote...

````

I'm wondering though if you can jump from one Scene to "anywhere"

in another Scene...not just to "the start of the referred Scene."

For navigational purposes, this is a must for me...as for example...

"Slide 24 in Scene 1" needs to jump to "Slide 52 in Scene 4."

Thanks again for the clarification!

You can use the "Jump to Slide" trigger to jump anywhere.  

Hi Rand,

yes, you can jump to any place of a scene. Perhaps it is easier to explain it in that way:

Jump to Slide: You can choose any slide of the complete project as a destination point. The trigger to that slide sticks even if you move it to another scene.

Jump to scene: You will automatically jump to the starting point of the chosen scene.

Thanks Ralf!

That's just the answer I was hoping to hear!

All the best!
