Restricting Navigation in Engage Interactions
Hello. I am working in a Tab Interaction that from a template in the content library. It was a great start! I've added more layers and buttons for them and am adding Audio to the base layer and the other layers. I have not been able to figure out two things: 1) I want to require that the audio file in each tab run it's full length before allowing the learner to click the next tab/button, and 2) I want to require that all tabs be completed before moving to the next slide. I know the answer lies within Triggers it eludes me. I appreciate any assistance that can be provided.
Hi Gayle,
Engage 360 is pretty limited when it comes to customizing the navigation conditions of an interaction. You don't get access to triggers in Engage 360, which is required when building conditional navigation.
You can, however, easily do this in Storyline 360, which has built-in triggers for control events such as "When media file completes" among others. Check out this article on creating tab interactions in Storyline 360 if you're interested in testing Storyline!
Once you've set up the tab interaction in Storyline 360, feel free to share a copy of your project file here and we'll be glad to show you how you can use triggers and variables to control the navigation and make listening to audio files mandatory. This ELH post also has a sample Storyline 360 file that you can check out for design ideas:
Looking forward to hearing from you!
