RESOURCES: where are they?

I have a number of documents (both .pdf and .docx) loaded into my Storyline Resources. They don't show up, either when I publish locally or in Review 360. 

>Are Resources specific to the slides or scenes where they are loaded or are they available across the project?

>How can I test to see what users will have available?*

>Is there an inventory of loaded items (similar to the inventory of variables) so I can see what's supposed to be there?

*Support article https://articulate.com/support/article/attachments-will-not-open?_ga=2.208982546.1490527158.1674667106-76155598.1674062395 says "view your content in the environment for which it was published," not locally--but shouldn't Review 360 satisfy this?

Thanks! Robert

  • if you publish to web and start - do you see this lines on the bottom, if you hover with the mouse over the titles

    make a sceenshot from your screen

      >When I click on Resources in the upper left, I get an empty window:
      [Graphical user interface, application Description automatically generated with medium confidence]
      >I tried this on multiple slides where I know I loaded documents into Resources.

      What to try next?
      Again, thanks!

  • How did you load the resources? Resources are global, not specific to one slide.

      Hi Walt.
      Thanks for the GLOBAL info.
      I loaded by going HOME / PLAYER / RESOURCES.

  • in the storyline player settings it should look like this

    your documents appear in the list here ?
