Storyline Video Interaction Cue Point Issue
Hi,
I am working on embedding interactions into a video I inserted (from file) into Storyline. I have four interactions as layers. I can get the first layer to pop up at cue #1. However, the progr...
You need to control the media AND the base layer timeline. Remove the video controls from the media. These controls act independently of the timeline. Use the seekbar in the Player instead.
On the base layer have three triggers. One each to show the respective layer based on cue points on the timeline.
On each layer have three triggers:
- Pause media when the timeline starts on the layer
- Play media when the user clicks the Continue button
- Hide the layer when the user clicks the Continue button
Set the layer properties to:
- Either Layer or Dialog based upon your preference
- Hide other layers
- Prevent user from clicking the other layers
- Pause timeline of base layer
Users can control the video playback by clicking the video and toggling between pause and play. If they click the video it will pause, but the timeline continues. To prevent this put a solid shape set to 100% transparent completely covering the video, effectively creating a "mask".
Note: A solid shape set to "No Fill" will not create a mask. It is no longer solid with no fill.
See the attached file.
