Show layer displays solid white using variable.
Hi all! Any advice and help would be greatly appreciated. I believe I am overthinking this scenario and there is a better way but this is what I have. I open to any feedback. Scenario: The learner will view a video. Seek bar is disabled until video is complete. When video is complete, a slide layer becomes visible giving an instruction. Slide layer goes hidden if learner drags seek bar to rewatch any part of video. Current Slide Triggers: Set variable VideoRestarted to True when timeline starts. Show layer when timeline ends on slide (Condition: If VideoRestarted = False) Issue: When layer shows in preview and published, the layer is solid white not showing instruction. So the actions with the variable are working kind of. If I delete the variables and just do a slide trigger of show layer when timeline ends on this slide. It shows the layer with instructions just fine. Any thoughts, please?Generate Phonemes using AI and a Dictionary
Pronunciation is a challenge at times, especially when the same word is pronounced differently depending on its "use." We use a combination of IPA phonemes and basic phonetics (phonics). I use an AI chat to generate the SSML code, then place it in a SharePoint library for when I need it again. The same voice may get it right one time, but not the next, so I never know when I'll need the phoneme. Given that the Articulate voices don't allow emphasis on syllables, this is the best method I've found so far. If anyone has a better way, it would be most appreciated if you would share, thank you! This is very basic, but it does work when needed. Here is an example of the AI prompt: Please generate the phoneme SSML code for the word "<word>" and use https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary to obtain the phonemes. Example for "use" as a noun: <speak> <phoneme alphabet="ipa" ph="ˈjuːs">use</phoneme> </speak> Example for "use" as a verb: <speak> <phoneme alphabet="ipa" ph="ˈjuːz">use</phoneme> </speak>Triggers for Hotspots
Hello all, I am attempting to create a trigger, but I'm not even sure it exists. I need a next button to pop up after all the invisible hotspots have been hovered over and the layers revealed. I am at a loss on how to make this happen. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Megan A AUPEBest Fonts to Use
Hi, I'm brand new to Articulate and I have a few trainings I created using Canva that I rather not completely rebuild. When I upload the deck to Storyline there are a few fonts from Canva that Storyline doesn't have. Is there a list of acceptable fonts that I can find somewhere? TIA :) NovaNaeNot able to install the Articulate 360 desktop apps in a (windows) virtual machine
Hi. I am trying to install the Articulate 360 desktop apps onto a (Windows) Virtual Machine, as I'd like to use the screen recording in Articulate Storyline to create training videos and manuals. (It's for training a new data capturing system). I log into my Articulate 360 account, navigate to the "download desktop apps" button, click that, then click the "start download" button on the pop-up, download the file, open the file, click run, click install and then get an error 800704EC. I've attached the screens. Am I missing something? Or doing something wrong?How to Indicate Audio is Available to the User
We are looking for some guidance/best practices on informing the user when audio is available: When audio contains more details than displayed on the screen. How do you let your users know that? For example, if the block has header, (small paragraph of info), then list of bullet items followed by the audio at the bottom. I saw the attached note in a training and love it but it doesn't meet our question. Also, do you suggest something used throughout the course or just on the intro slide? Thank you!SL Template Slide for importing questions
Hello, I'm new to Storyline and currently preparing to import over 1,000 multiple-choice questions from text files. Before doing so, I’d like to set up a basic slide template to streamline the process and avoid repetitive adjustments afterward. Specifically, I want to predefine essential layers (such as correct, incorrect, and review), choose the desired font type and size, and possibly include a few custom states. My goal is to ensure that once the questions are imported, they automatically adopt the formatting and structure I've set in the template. Please please please help me!Designing an interactive for a museum screen - which software?
Hi, We've been grated a permanent space at a local Science Museum and we are thinking about designing interactives for kids to do - possibly on iPads or similar. We've been told everything would need to run offline. This isn't my usual area - usually designing Storyline or Rise modules to be viewed by online learners. Has anyone managed to use Storyline in this way? Or do you know of other software that would be better for this? Many thanks!
