Flip animation using GSAP in Articulate Storyline to have smooth flip animation.
We recently faced a challenge with the built-in swirl animation in Storyline (SL). Our client found it cluttered and pointed out that the animation flipped twice, which logically should result in showing the same side again. We agreed with this feedback and decided to explore alternative solutions. After some research and experimentation, we discovered that using GSAP (GreenSock Animation Platform) provided a much cleaner and more logical flip animation. GSAP allowed us to create a smooth and visually appealing flip effect that only flips once, addressing the client's concerns effectively. By integrating GSAP with Storyline, we were able to enhance the overall user experience and meet the client's expectations. This solution not only resolved the issue but also opened up new possibilities for creating more sophisticated animations in our e-learning projects. Hope it will be helpful..From Motion Paths to Murder Mysteries: My 2024 E-Learning Adventure
When I started 2024 with a simple 0px motion path challenge, little did I know I'd end up orchestrating murder mysteries and guiding virtual safari adventures! What began as technical experimentation became a year of pushing creative boundaries and discovering new possibilities in e-learning design. Each challenge became a stepping stone to something more ambitious. From helping art lovers restore masterpieces in a forgotten gallery to creating an AI-powered pet adoption center, every project taught me something new. I found myself weaving stories, building immersive experiences, and even launching my own spooky podcast platform (Jay-tify, anyone?). Here's my journey through 2024's e-learning challenges, where every project started with "What if..." and ended with "Wow, I actually did that!" Challenge #445: How Can You Use This Motion Path Tip in Your E-Learning Projects?
