Controlling Web Object content
My trial has expired but I wanted to share previous past experience regarding Web Objects and the upcoming GLB support within Storyline.
Anyone with three.js experience has had the ability to add interactive GLB 3D models to their slides via Web Objects since mid to late 2017.
Interacting with 3D models is like playing with a fidget spinner, addictive and quite fun.
Using basic javascript it's always been easy to trigger all or only a specific animation within the GLB model. I'm not entirely sure what features Storyline 360 will support with their GLB support currently in beta, but I wanted to share my past experience to demonstrate what's possible.
I posted 2 articles on LinkedIn today demonstrating what's possible. In this post I wanted to show the type on interactive GLB model you can display within Storyline — unfortunately my trial expired so I only posted the GLB.
The second post contains 2 Storyline projects. The first project contains javascript required to start and stop an animation contained within a GLB. The second project demonstrates how to turn a remote web site or web app into a controlled walkthrough. In effect, you can load a remote website into a Web Object and then treat that Web Object as if it's an onboarding or managed experience.
I hope they are helpful to others.
