Get info from active element in Storyline
As another user asked a question in the forum about how to get info of the current selected object, i jumped onto that to figure it out. Actually getting the actual focused element was easy enou...
Hi Math, I'd like to be able to get the text string out of certain Storyline 360 check box objects and pass them into a JS script to do something with (compile the text from the check boxes that the user selected and feed them back later in the course or print them out as a reminder of what they chose). Can GSAP be used do this? I.e. is the text string of the Storyline checkbox object stored as a property in such a way that it could be accessed using JS?
Note that the contents I'm trying to pass to JS are not text entry boxes and thus are not currently stored as text variables in Storyline. They also won't be the "currently active" objects.
Yes it can. The biggest problem is getting the correct selector. As Storyline doesnot make normal proper HTML but changes all texts into SVG. So you have to dive into the selectors and figure out what <tspan> or whatever to select. I am gonna mock a sample this weekend.
Kind regards,
Math
