Offline Viewing with modern player
Hi, everyone:
Any news about an alternative to the AMP to view outputs offline after Dec 31, 2020?
Thank you!
Is there any word on being able to publish and download Storyline files for offline viewing. This is becoming a major point for my company.....
Hello Anthony!
You can download Storyline files for offline viewing now. Just publish your content for CD and then you could either zip the published output, and copy it to a network drive. (Users must extract the zip file before viewing.) or zip the published output, and email it directly to users. (Users must extract the zip file before viewing it.)
And how would I do this for viewing on an iPad?
Hi Anthony!
You can add the course to the home screen on an iPad. One of my teammates listed out the steps:
- Publish your course to a web server (Amazon S3 for instance). Then, open the link to this published course on your iPad.
- Navigate through the entire course, visiting every slide.
- You want to add this course to your home screen on your iPad. In the Safari browser, this button is accessed by clicking on the icon that looks like a box with an arrow pointing up from it, and then selecting the "Add to Home Screen" button.
- Click the option to "Add". This action should then take you to the home screen and show a new icon for your course.
- To see if this worked, just press the home button on your iPad and place the device into airplane mode. (Drag your finger up from the bottom of the screen and click on the little airplane icon. Swipe down to close).
- Click on the course icon on the home screen to open up the course.
You should now be able to navigate through everything, even though you are offline. You can use that icon on the home screen of your iPad to bring up the course, and it should work fine whether or not you're connected to WiFi.
Hope this helps!
