Hi everyone!
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 74, we've included important fixes and new features.
One of the new features we've included is:
- Create immersive experiences with continuous background audio that sets the tone and keeps learners engaged.
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you have questions!
One of the cool things about this setup, you can control the audio (starts, stops, volume, loads) through a JavaScript trigger.
If you're able to place the js library files somewhere central (yourURL.com/js/soundmanager.js) you can add the JS include line to every publish by editing your player template (in Storyline's install directory). Once you've done this you don't need to do any surgery after publish. Everything can be added / done through JavaScript, provided you've added your media files to the package or can reference them somehow.
I've had some luck adding media files to the resources before publish. Files retain their name under story_content/external_files.
