3 Ways to Let Users Choose their Own Character or Avatar in Storyline
In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to let learners select their own character and explore three different ways to show that character across multiple slides. You’ll use variables to store learner choices and apply slide triggers, timeline triggers, and slide masters to display the customized character.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. View the example.Cropped Shadow with Pop Out Character
I like the look of the avatars in this dribble account and the way the shadows were inside the box while the character popped out. See the example here. About Me I love helping people learn to use the Articulate software to meet their needs at work. I especially like to help those new instructional designers who are trying their best to get a handle on things. I regularly contribute to the training team's blog where we assemble all sorts of tips and tricks. Follow it to stay up to date. I post every Wednesday to Articulate's company blogwhere I share more general instructional design tips. I used to write the Rapid E-learning Blog. Still lots of good tips & tricks in there. Connect with me on LinkedIn and follow my YouTube for more tips & tricks.
