Open URL/File Trigger

Hi, I am creating an e-learning where the learner has to look at a wiring diagram (PDF file) before answering a question. I have created the trigger for this and it works great, however, once the PDF file is open, I have no way of returning to the e-learning to answer the question. I have tried it with 'Display in current window' and 'Display in new window'. I am currently trying to test this function using SCORM Cloud.

  • Hi Richard, I use this method for loading a PDF in. It uses the WebObject. It's a little bit more involved, but it does solve the issue of multiple browser windows being open.

    Disclaimer: You will experience some degradation in the PDF quality due to Storyline scaling.

    Here's a video I've recorded on this. An example file is attached, with the webobject folder.
