Ending A Storyline Slide Preference
Design survey. Have slide content fade out, end with whatever is on screen last or add a prompt? What do you prefer?
When a course has a Next button, I think most folks know that they should click it to move on. However, if your audience wouldn't know that, you could provide a Help slide.
Typically, if the stakeholders require that learners must "complete" each slide before moving on, the course is set to Restricted navigation, and interactive slides are programmed to only enable the Next button when the interaction is done.

Otherwise, whenever the user is ready to move on from the current slide, they'll do so. I'd avoid fading out the content, because you don't know how long the user wants to look at it. For example, they might get distracted and look away for a while, and then they'd be confused if they turned back to find a blank slide.
Hi Judy thanks for the reply and your thoughts on why you avoid fading.
