Check / Tick marks in the menu
These seem to have appeared in a recent update? I certainly don't remember them being there before.
Can they be turned off?

Hello, I agree. My customers wonder why the scene is checked, although just one slide of many is visited. I would rather disable the tick marks than show them this way. Thanks.

Yes, very bad... Does someone know a way to change at least the color of the checkmark to the background of the player like #212121 in the CSS?

We need a way to turn off the checkmarks in the course menu. They are confusing to learners for many reasons already outlined here.

I also support this feature request, I would prefer to be able to turn off the check marks in the course menu.

append three line to story.html/index_lms.html
.cs-icon.check-icon {
display: none;
}Important: Storyline deletes and creates this file new, when you publish -> patch it again

Thanks a lot for the solution!

Thank you for this useful fix, I'll give it a go.
I agree that checkmarks should be optional or configurable. I have a number of courses where the section (scene) is listed in the menu, but not the individual slides within. I don't want a whole section 'checked off' when users visit it! It's very misleading. It's not 'best practice' to use visual icons to convey learner progress when that's not actually what it's conveying - it's showing that you've visited a section, not progressed through it!
I'd prefer to be able to choose at what point the check mark is displayed, but short of that being able to turn them off would still be less misleading than how they currently operate.

One year on and no solution? Ticking a menu option when viewed (and not completed) is just bad practice. I'm going to have to turn the menu off for my courses. Please fix.

Do you have any update on this feature request and any idea when it will be fixed? It confuses learners and the workarounds to solve this are not ideal either.
Hi Ildiko,

Even when a slide contains a graded question, a tick appears in the menu as soon as the user lands on that slide. I'm sure you can appreciate that it could be more helpful if the tick only appears once the question has been answered, and optionally, only once it is answered correctly.
I believe the same reasoning is valid for any other slide. It would be helpful if the content author can decide when a page is complete, and therefore control when a tick appears in the menu.
Furthermore, a side-effect of the current behavior is that a user can "cheat" and mark all pages as complete by simply clicking down the side menu, without completing any interactions on the page.
Finally, it would be extremely helpful if Storyline could contain built-in logic to mark the page as complete only after all applicable objects on the page are displaying their "visited" state - i.e. when an author creates a "visited" state for an object, Storyline automatically begins "watching" that object as a condition for when the page is marked as complete.
