1 TopicHow To Embed An ElevenLabs Conversational AI Widget Into SL360 Using JS!
Hi Heroes, It feels like something new and exciting is always around the corner in the world of generative AI technology, and this week ElevenLabs put themselves firmly in the driving seat of the agentic AI revolution with their new Conversational AI toolkit. If you haven't heard of this yet, check out this video which explains it all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-EYzZCLF48&ab_channel=ElevenLabs The interactive, animated widget that this toolkit provided is easy to embed anywhere, including directly within an Articulate Storyline 360 project slide! If you're interested in how to get started, I've written a blog post that includes all the steps, including an Execute JavaScript snippet you can use to effortlessly get your agent loaded into your activity: https://discoverelearninguk.com/how-to-set-up-elevenlabs-conversational-ai-widget-in-articulate-storyline-360/ I'm also currently experimenting with the API for the new Conversational toolkit to understand how I can implement it into my eLearning Magic Toolkit plugin for Storyline + WordPress, potentially opening the door for developing real-time voice activated automation all within a Storyline-built eLearning activity! Much more to come very soon. 🚀 --- My name's Chris Hodgson, an eLearning developer and software trainer based in the UK.

I have a drag and drop quiz with 95 drag options that are then added to a chart. This is all working beautifully and tiling onto the chart very nicely, but if I want to randomize the order that the 95 options appear in (on the drag sequence menu) then I have to manually drag them around to make them appear randomized. Has anyone ever incorporated javascript to make drag options appear in random order if they are appearing one by one? Apologies if this is unclear or not allowed to ask.Solved606Views0likes7CommentsTraining Recommendations for a Beginner?
Hello! I want to learn JavaScript. 🙃 I really need JavaScript for Dummies 😂 I have access to LinkedIn Learning and found courses like: "Hands-On Introduction: JavaScript" (uses GitHub Codespace) "JavaScript Essential Training" (uses CoderPad) "Learning the JavaScript Language" (uses GitHub Codespace) Anyone familiar with these? I'm not familiar with GitHub or CoderPad, so I'd like to not have to set up an account and learn another program/site if the course isn't what I need. Does anyone have any recommendations from LinkedIn or YouTube? Or should I go to Microsoft? 😱 Maybe this is an opportunity for an Articulate Training/Tutorial? Most of the existing training presumes (I think) an intermediate or advanced knowledge of JavaScript. Thanks in advance for helping out a JavaScript newbie 👶🏼Solved441Views5likes19CommentsNew Tutorial! Create and Control Glassmorphism Effects With JavaScript In Storyline
Hi Heroes, I'd like to share the latest episode in my Storyline Magic Series on my YouTube channel! In this episode, we'll delve into 'Glassmorphism'—a modern and powerful design technique that blends translucent surfaces with frosted glass effects. This approach not only enhances the aesthetic of your content but also helps learning designers create depth and establish a clear visual hierarchy. I’ll show you how to create and control this stunning effect entirely within Articulate Storyline 360. Let me know if you'd enjoy seeing more comprehensive start-to-finish project builds like this in the future! And see how other Storyline devs are using Glassmorphism here: https://community.articulate.com/blog/e-learning-challenges/using-glassmorphism-designs-in-e-learning-course-development-310/1151525 --- My name's Chris Hodgson, an eLearning developer and software trainer based in the UK.

Hi all. I am new here. Maybe a beginner question.... I found out that my javascript progress bar doesn't work after the updates past 8th october 2024. I couldn't find out why, tried with the console and different ways. I think the <div> is not visible or not inserted. Could you please check my script in the example file? Probably you have seen this scipt in other projects, its from the web. Behaviour: start slide (without progress bar) 1. slide - master slide 1 - progress bar works fine the first time. 2. slide - master slide 1 - progress bar failes. 3. slide - master slide 2 - progress bar works fine. 4. slide - master slide 1 - progress bar works fine. If I have two slides with the same master slide in a row, on the second slide the progress bar failes. I upload a example with 4 slides. The script is on the master. Any help is welcome. Thank you.355Views1like14CommentsJavascript not working in full screen
Hi all! I have two Javascript codes that execute when selected: one to copy a claim key, and another to add confetti. Both seem to work when completed normally, but once I'm in full screen, neither work! Is it because of the Javascript itself? To recreate the issue: 1. Claim key: if you have something copied, open the Storyline file in full screen, select the "Copy Claim Key" button, and paste in the text field below. If in full screen, it will paste your previous selection instead of the key (which is "S8AM83B2QDBBKKF89K3K")! The code used for this is below, using a "ClaimKey" variable already set in the Storyline file: var player = GetPlayer(); var text = player.GetVar("ClaimKey"); copyFunction (text); function copyFunction(tt) { const copyText = tt; const textArea = document.createElement('textarea'); textArea.textContent = copyText; document.body.append(textArea); textArea.select(); document.execCommand("copy"); textArea.style.display = "none"; } 2. Confetti: if you select the "Add Confetti" button, the confetti will appear on the page normally. If you select full screen and the "Add Confetti" button again, exit full screen early to see the last instances of confetti that don't show up in full screen. Two Javascript codes were used for confetti: var duration = 5 * 1000; var animationEnd = Date.now() + duration; var defaults = { startVelocity: 30, spread: 360, ticks: 60, zIndex: 0 }; function randomInRange(min, max) { return Math.random() * (max - min) + min; } var interval = setInterval(function() { var timeLeft = animationEnd - Date.now(); if (timeLeft <= 0) { return clearInterval(interval); } var particleCount = 50 * (timeLeft / duration); // since particles fall down, start a bit higher than random confetti(Object.assign({}, defaults, { particleCount, origin: { x: randomInRange(0.1, 0.3), y: Math.random() - 0.2 } })); confetti(Object.assign({}, defaults, { particleCount, origin: { x: randomInRange(0.7, 0.9), y: Math.random() - 0.2 } })); }, 250); var confettiScript = document.createElement('script'); confettiScript.setAttribute('src','https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/canvas-confetti@1.5.1/dist/confetti.browser.min.js'); document.head.appendChild(confettiScript); *The second code is a workaround I used from this Little Man Project post to avoid updating the HTML file each time I publish :) I'm a JavaScript beginner, so any help is appreciated! You can preview the issue here in Review, and I've attached the file for reference. Thanks!Solved350Views1like5CommentsNew Tutorial! Build Dynamic Animated Bar Charts In Storyline Using JavaScript
Hi Heroes, I’m excited to share the latest episode of my Storyline Magic Series with you all! In this episode, I'll be showing you how to create dynamic animated bar charts in Articulate Storyline 360, using standard Storyline shapes, variables, and a touch of JavaScript magic. 📊✨ One of the highlights of this technique is that your chart animations are controlled using Storyline number variables, and bar shapes will adjust their height beautifully across all screen sizes, ensuring consistent results for all users. By the end of the tutorial, you’ll have a reusable template that you can apply to any bar chart designs you want to bring to life in Storyline!

I was fooling around with the new API and created a proof of concept for some mechanics of a top-down game. You can use the WASD keys to move the robot around. If you roll close to objects, I set a variable that allows a layer to open. Unfortunately, the built in Intersection triggers don't work when you move objects with API method, so you need it to do it through JavaScript. If you move the robot off screen to the right, it will go to the next screen in the correct position it left. Try going back higher up and see how it works. The current demo only allows you to go to slide (or room) 3 and back. I can get the coordinates of a character object and then since you know the slide size, you can trigger variables to get you to the next slide and back. I also built some logic in to prevent the robot from going too far up or too far down. On the last slide that you can get to through the menu, you will notice a demo of a platform concept. Move the oval using the keys and notice that we can simulate gravity like any game engine. I imagine if I implemented the same positional logic that we could create a simple platformer but haven't got there yet. Full disclosure: All assets are generated using ChatGPT 4.0 except for the ovals and the rectangles. 😉 Take a look here. https://360.articulate.com/review/content/6104372d-85cf-41cc-8f81-6f42e3a6c061/reviewSolved323Views4likes5CommentsTutorial - How To Control Rise Block Interaction From Storyline Using JS!
Hi Heroes! It’s fantastic to see that Storyline developers interested in using JavaScript to enhance the user experience now have our own dedicated group with the latest E-Learning Heroes website update! Nearly three years ago, I launched my ‘Storyline Magic’ tutorial series on YouTube because I wanted more resources to be available for those looking to leverage JavaScript coding to push the boundaries of what’s possible working with Articulate software. In the very first episode, I demonstrate how combining JavaScript with CSS in Storyline can automate actions within an Articulate Rise course. Specifically, I show how to automatically advance the learner to the next lesson in Rise after they complete the required actions within a Storyline activity: Storyline Magic Series - Episode 01 Controlling Rise Navigation In Articulate Storyline --- My name's Chris Hodgson, an eLearning developer and software trainer based in the UK.

I want to connect a slider to the 360-degree image, enabling the user to control the horizontal movement, similar to how the 'A' and 'D' keys work. I'm unsure which method would result in smoother interaction, so I'd appreciate your recommendation on the best approach. Please refer to the attached image. Additionally, instead of rotating the image a full 360 degrees, I only want to rotate it 180 degrees using the slider. The process I’m describing differs from typical object rotation in product viewers (e.g., rotating a device with a dial). My image is equirectangular, commonly used for 360-degree panoramic views, and I only want to control 180 degrees of its movement through the slider. Based on the instructions provided, the image can be rotated and moved using the keyboard keys (W, A, S, D), but I’d like to replicate this interaction using a slider instead of keyboard input. I also came across a discussion here where someone mentioned difficulties with students using Chromebooks being unable to rotate 360-degree pictures on their touchscreens. They were seeking an alternative method, such as using a slider, to rotate the image. I’m facing a similar challenge, and I’d appreciate any guidance on how to best implement this functionality.255Views0likes1Comment
