Example
Avatar Selection
This week I am sharing an example I built a while back where the learner chooses an avatar. The characters are part of a button set, and if you try to proceed without picking an avatar, an error layer will show. Slide 2 shows the avatar, and displays a name variable that was set on the previous slide.

I like this, thanks for sharing.
Quick question though: I need to et the avatar at the start of every page where the avatar appears, right?
And thinking this a bit further: If the avatars have different postures or facial expressions (depending os learner interaction for example), that would mean I need a state for each character and each posture?
Hey Felix,
You would have to put the avatar on any page where you want it, along with a trigger to change the state of that avatar. And you are right, you'd need a state for each posture/expression. I would probably just edit the state of the avatar on each slide to adjust all three of them to whatever expression I wanted for that particular slide, as opposed to adding more states.
Hi elizabeth​
Thank you for the quick answer. Editing the states on each page is a good idea, since the states need to be edited anyway. Still alot of work, but the really cool stuff that makes the difference often is.
Nice combo with the emphasis animations.
