Presenter 360: Adding an Interaction to a Player Tab

Not only can you add interactions to Articulate Presenter slides, but also you can add them to player tabs so they’re accessible throughout your course.

Creating a New Interaction

To create a new interaction as a player tab, do the following:

  1. Go to the Articulate tab on the PowerPoint ribbon and click Engage Interaction.
  2. Select Player Tabs on the left side of the window that appears.
  3. Click Create New on the right side of the window and choose Engage Interaction.
  4. When prompted, select the type of interaction you want to create, enter a title for your interaction, and click OK. (This title will be shown on the player tab and will also be used for the interaction project file name.)
  5. When Engage launches, build your interaction the way you want. To learn more about using Engage, see these user guides.
  6. When your interaction is ready, click Save and Return to Presenter on the Engage ribbon.

To adjust the properties for your interaction, see Customizing Interaction Properties.

To change the order and location of tabs on the top bar of your course player, see Choosing Player Features.

Tip: Another option for adding a new interaction to Presenter is to launch Engage, build the interaction, then publish it directly to Presenter.

Importing an Existing Interaction

If you already created an interaction that you want to add to your Presenter course, do the following:

  1. Go to the Articulate tab on the PowerPoint ribbon and click Engage Interaction.
  2. Select Player Tabs on the left side of the window that appears.
  3. Click Add Existing on the right side of the window.
  4. Browse to the interaction file you want to import and click Open.
  5. Use the following properties to customize how the interaction behaves with the rest of your course:
    • Remove: This removes the interaction from your presentation. (If you've added more than one quiz or interaction, make sure you select the right one in the list before you remove it.)
    • Edit Label: This lets you change the text that's used for the tab that appears on the top bar of your course player. Type the new name and click OK.
    • Edit Interaction: This opens the interaction in Engage so you can edit it. When you finish editing, click Save and Return to Presenter on the Engage ribbon.
  6. When you're finished, click Close.

To change the order and location of tabs on the top bar of your course player, see Choosing Player Features.

Tip: Another option for adding an existing interaction to Presenter is to open the interaction in Engage and publish it directly to Presenter.
