User notes that they can print and email

This is just what I am looking for, great work, thanks so much for sharing!

This looks awesome Stephanie,  and hopefully exactly what i need!  Time to tinker with you JS.

Many thanks.

does this store their response in the LMS once they are done to come back to and reference or is this something they have to print and keep?

Thank you so much Stephanie, this is such a useful feature. Thanks for sharing this information.

Hello, I have another question on the Notes element of this thread. I'd like to create a Notes panel that learners can show or hide throughout the training, using it to type in their notes as needed and emailing all their notes to them at the end.

I have the email piece down thanks to this thread.The issue I'm running into is that I can't figure out a way to allow learners to show the Notes panel whenever they want to.   I placed a Notes panel with a show/hide button on a Master Slide, but when I use that layout with multiple layers that show/hide one at a time as the learner clicks a series of buttons, the Notes panel disappears with the first button click, as does the Note panel button.

If you can figure out how to do this - or help me identify what I am doing wrong - I'd appreciate it!

Thanks.

You need a variable so you know if the notes panel is open and closed, e.g. NotesOpen

Set it to true whenever it is open and false when it is closed.

Now on each layer in your course add a trigger that shows your notes layer (I presume you are incrementing a variable, on condition NotesOpen is equal to true, ensure the the notes layer is set to not hide other layers.

Not sure why the notes panel button is hiding is that on a layer as well?

Hi Phil, many thanks for your suggestion!  I'm now closer to a solution but not quite there yet. Here's what I've done:

*Created a NotesOpen variable as you described
*Reconfigured the master so a button opens a notes layer and sets the NotesOpen variable to true, and sets the variable false when learner clicks the close button
*Set the notes layer not to hide other layers

Here's what happens now:

When I apply this layout to a slide with multiple layers that show/hide one at a time as the learner clicks a series of buttons, the Notes panel disappears with the first button click. Since the My Notes button still displays on the page, this isn't a dealbreaker, but it would be nice for learners for the open notes layer to stay open until they close it (rather than requiring them to keep clicking the My Notes button to re-open it when they are still interacting with the page).

Hmmm....

Is the notes panel a separate layer? Or does the notes layer have a button that toggles an object between hidden/normal?

On the master slide base layer, the My Notes button opens the Notes panel, which is on a separate layer named Notes.

On the Notes layer, learners can click X to close (hide) the Notes panel. When they click to close, they also set NotesOpen to False.

You need another trigger then to show the additional layer if NotesOpen = true.
