Slider process interaction with layers
Hi,
I've created slider process interaction with layers like in the exemple https://community.articulate.com/download/sample-slider-interaction-for-storyline-2
I have basic layer with instruction "Click and drag the slider to learn about each step." and I have 5 different layers for 5 different steps.
I want to show each layer(step) when learner moves the slider.
I've set up the slider options like this:
Variable: slider 1
Update: When slider is dragged
Start:0
End: 5
Initiale:0
Step: 1
I've set up 5 triggers like in Nicole's exemple like this:
Show the layer 1
When Slider 1 modifications
If slider 1 is equal to 1,00
...and so on for each or 5 layers
The problem is that I don't have in the output the slider moving on each of 5 steps. It moves only to the middle and that's all. I suppose I didn't set up right the slider options. Could someone help me to unblock the situation? I can upload my source file if needed.
Thanks so much for advices!
Upload your .story file and a community member will take a look.
Thanks so much in advance!
See attached. You had duplicate sliders on the various layers.
Thanks so much Michael, that was so fast! It works perfectly!
Just to understand what I did wrong and learn for the futur: I had already duplicated sliders on my layers but your layers have grey background and slider. What did you do differently exactly?
Many thanks again for your help Michael!
I removed the duplicate sliders and black background images from all slide layers, so that only the baselayer contains the slider and background image. In Storyline, when you view a layer the elements on the baselayer are shown as greyed out, but once you preview or publish, they will show up as intended.
All right, I see what you mean. I will read about working with layers to learn more about this fonctionality.
Thanks and have a nice week-end!
Hi, Ivana -- So glad to see that Michael was able to assist! As I see that you are newer to the community and I am not sure how experienced you are with SL2, I thought I might pass along the following resources in case you'd find them helpful moving forward:
Yes Christie, I start using Storyline 2. Thanks for the resources, this will help :)
Certainly, Ivana, and please let us know if you need anything more!
Can anyone help please...
I am trying to create a slide that has different buttons, 1 and 2 in my example attached. When the user clicks on option 2, I want a slider to appear that the user can use to change content within the slide (within 3 specific layers).
I have done this in the past with using the base layer to hold the slider and this enables me to use the same slider when adding the variables, however I am having issues with it within multiple layers.
I have a theory of how to get around it, but wanted to see if I was missing a trick?
Thanks!
Hi David
see if the attached works for you. I deleted one of the layers and placed the slider (initial state = hidden) back on the base layer.
Perfect! That was my next action! (you have proved it works!) :D
Thank you Wendy
