Remove character in dialogue screens - Rise 360 scenario block?
Is there any way to remove the character in the dialogue screens of a Rise 360 scenario block? There is a tick box for text screens to 'hide character', but not an option in dialogue screens. I'm wondering if there are any tricks that can be done so it doesn't add the character. I once read you can create your own character which sounded complex. But is there an option to insert an invisible character or way to hack that in to the Rise block without resorting to a custom Storyline block?
p.s. the reason I ask is I want to create an interview with a child and just use the background image to show the child's hands; no reactions or anything needed, just the dialogue.

Hi, I would also like to see an option to completely remove characters.
I would also like this functionality to remove characters completely. When I'm using my own customised backdrops I don't feel the need for the character as well as it takes away from the dialogue a bit. Would love this to be marked as a potential upgrade!!
Yes - agree with all the above. Having the option to remove characters completely would allow for more flexibility in using a Rise scenario block (without having to re-built the interaction in storyline).
Please make this happen! :)
Following this -- I would also like the option to remove characters completely. I feel like using characters detracts from the scenario content more often than it helps.
I also agree: please offer the chance to display scenario without a character. Thanks!
I would like this too (remove a character) either that or a broader option for characters including individuals with limb loss. Given our audience, there seems to be no option here to use this interactive tool as we do not have an LMS.
Hi, I would also like to be able to remove characters in the Dialogue.
Any updates on removing the character or alternate solutions for the Scenario dialogue?
Thanks for your interest in this feature. We have no updates for this, but we'll post here once we make changes that will help!
Oh my gosh, I had no idea this was NOT possible and need it NOW! I guess I will have to try to recreate what the scenario interactive does, since I do NOT want a character in it. PLEASE make this an option SOON!!!
@Zuzana--
If you're in a pinch and need a solution immediately, there's a workaround I've used: create a custom character that's invisible (100% transparency is what I use) and that character for every spot in the scenario where a character would appear.
You'll still see the background, but no character will appear to the learner.
Good luck!
