Pausing the timeline, Without requiring user interaction
Hi,
I have been looking into using Articulate Storyline to create systems training. So far so good, but now I'm a bit stuck.
I have inserted a screen recording video using the "step-by-step - ...
I didn't need off-stage objects to pause a Layer timeline without user participation.
CONTEXT: On top of my base layer I created different layers that are invoked according to a user-informed variable. When the user is then sent to one of those layers, the timeline stops until the user selects a button which sends them to a different Scene.
To get the timeline to auto stop, on the layer:
1. TRIGGER: Set up a trigger to pause the timeline at a Cue point.
2. SLIDE LAYER PROPERTIES: select these:
Hide other slide layers.
Allow Seeking: NO.
Present as: LAYER.
Prevent user from clicking other layers.
Pause timeline of base layer.
When revisiting: Reset to Initial State.
