Dynamic Text to Speech in Storyline

Hi everyone

Does anyone know if you can insert a variable into text-to-speech in storyline?

I have a game where players earn points. At the end I want my character to say "congratulations, you earned X points". Is there a way of doing this?

I have the points total showing up on the slide but was hoping to insert it into the text too.

Cheers

Kim

  • Hello Kim, 

    Thanks for reaching out! 

    There isn't a way to include a variable in a text-to-speech output, but this sounds like a great feature to have.

    I’ll be happy to pass your thoughts on to our product team, but you can also feel free to detail them more through a feature request!

  • text-to-speech is not available for the learner - he has no licence for amazon polly

    but you could create multiple audios to layers
     -"sorry, you earned 0 points"
    ...
     - "congratulations, you earned 10 points"

    and show the layer (with the matching audio)
