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?

Please add me to the list of user who would like the functionality changed to only show the completion check marks when all slides in the section are visited. I'd also welcome the ability to turn off completion check marks completely.
Hi Jason!
Thanks for reaching out and sharing the feedback! I've added your voice to the feature report and will update this discussion if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap.
Have a great rest of your week and happy authoring!

Any updates on having this change/fix made?
We can't even use the built-in Storyline menu because of this.Let the check mark appear after the content is completed at the very least. Letting us control it with variables would be ideal.
Thank you!

I'd like to throw my voice into the request for these features as well. Our students find the current menu checkmarks incredibly confusing.
Additionally, in Storyline, the ability to prevent users from submitting their exams/quizzes until all questions have been answered was removed, (although it's a feature in Studio 360 Quizmaker settings). No matter how many warning screens and instructions we put into our exams, students still think they're answering everything because of these menu checkmarks.
Please consider bumping this up on the list of updates requested.Thanks guys.

You can also add a trigger "Execute JavaScript" on the first slide of your project with code:
var styleScript = document.createElement('style');
styleScript.type = 'text/css';
styleScript.innerHTML = ".cs-icon.check-icon { display: none !important; }";
document.head.appendChild(styleScript);Then you don't need to patch the .html everytime you create a new export.

This works GREAT. Thank you Moritz!

Thanks for this tip, Moritz! Unfortunately, the checkmarks do show up when you close and resume the course. Any idea how to avoid this (without editing the index.html)?
- MoritzWeberCommunity Member
I'm glad you figured it out!
I have a solution, but I'm afraid it's not the most elegant one. If you copy the JavaScript trigger to all slides or all master slides instead of the first slide of your project, then it will work every time you continue the WBT. But even as a JavaScript layman, I suspect that the same line of code will be inserted into the HTML on every slide that the user visits. That shouldn't be a problem in terms of performance - but I think a conscientious developer would shake their head :D
I hope this helps you.

Update: With this code on every master slide it should work "elegant":
if (!document.getElementById('hideTicks')) {
var styleScript = document.createElement('style');
styleScript.type = 'text/css';
styleScript.id = 'hideTicks';
styleScript.innerHTML = ".cs-icon.check-icon { display: none !important; }";
document.head.appendChild(styleScript);
} - DorisDenggCommunity Member
That works perfectly with the master slide! Thank you very much!!!

Any update on request? Please add me to the list.
When to show check mark should be in control of content developer. Current scenario misrepresent the screen / section completion.

Any new updates to this? We would also like this ability. It gives the learners the idea if they just click on the slide they've met the requirements. It needs to show up AFTER it is finished.
Hi Adam!
Thanks for checking in on this!
I don't have any updates to share at this time as our development team has been prioritizing other features. Not to worry! I've included you in the feature report and will update this discussion as soon as we have news to share.
