What element is this in RISE?

I found Tom's terrific 'Creating Cool Interactivity in RISE'  at https://articulate-heroes-authoring.s3.amazonaws.com/Workshops/2018/Devlearn/RiseInteractions/Presentation/index.html#/lessons/4EOAfMdvLJobbhDcxwW49jx5KZgU_Ave?_k=fg5l1t


Cannot work out how he made those blue bars that unlocks the next block within the lesson or jumps to the next lesson. I thought it was the Continue button, but it doesn't work the way Tom's does. https://www.loom.com/share/6a950eca54b740a18457061bf8709aee?sid=3f46d448-2989-47ea-a53f-1dd46aed8736

Ideas?  

  • Hey Nancy! 

    As I dug into the block that Tom is using, it is the Continue Divider block. He is just using the brand color and then changed the text. Curious what his is doing that makes you think it is not the Continue button.

    PS. Very thorough course he has put together! 

  • Thanks John! In the editing options for Continue, I can have the Continue button show all the time (not what Tom's does), have it locked if the learner hasn't looked at all blocks above (when I try this = it shows a lock. Tom's does not/ Plus Tom's allows free movement - no locks on where you can go) or locked if learner hasn't completed previous block (I get that lock again).  Hmm - feeling stuck..

  • Based on what I am seeing, I believe he is using the 'Always show button' option and then using the block animation feature to have all the non text blocks animate in to view (Theme > Blocks > Block Entrance Animations). 

  • Wow - you are spot on. I had not seen that before.  Thanks so much, John - such a great feature indeed.  Applying it now....
