Playback speed variable
Hi all! I'm very excited that the player now allows for the audience to adjust the playback speed of a course. However, I'd like to enable this same functionality using completely custom navigation....
I am looking to do the same thing but I am not familiar with javascript or variables. Can someone please help point me in the right direction or share the steps from the beginning? Thank you so much in advance!
I found out how to do this eventually. Here are the steps:
- Go to the first slide on storyline.
- Go to trigger panel, click "Create a New Trigger." It's the button that looks like a piece of paper
- Select "Execute Javascript" under Action.
- Click on JavaScript.
- Copy and paste the following:
DS.appState.setPlaybackSpeed( value );
var value = DS.appState.getPlaybackSpeed();
I wanted to speed up the whole training by 1.25. Example:
DS.appState.setPlaybackSpeed(1.25);
var value = DS.appState.getPlaybackSpeed(); - The rest of the settings I used was "When the timeline starts on this slide."
Thanks for sharing this.
Thank you for this. It is very helpful. I found that when applied to the first slide it applies to all subsequent slides in that scene. Looks like you have to apply it to first slide in each scene which is still fantastic! Thank you.
