60 TopicsHelp Needed with Partial Drop/Drag Scoring
Hi Community! I have been working on a drag and drop interaction in Storyline 360 and need help getting partial credit scoring to work. Here is my setup: The Interaction: - One slide with a drag and drop interaction - 22 drag items total — 5 go into the Red Bag and 17 do not - Items reveal one at a time using the Reveal drag items one at a time setting - Two drop targets: Text Box 1 (Goes in Red Bag) and Text Box 2 (Does Not Go in Red Bag) - A Submit for Results button that jumps to the results slide What I Built: - A custom variable called CorrectAnswers (Number, default value 0) - 22 triggers — one on each drag item — that Add 1 to CorrectAnswers when the item is dropped on the correct target - A Graded Results slide with the pass/fail triggers modified to use CorrectAnswers instead of Quiz1.ScorePoints - Success trigger: Show layer Success when timeline starts if CorrectAnswers is greater than or equal to 22 - Failure trigger: Show layer Failure when timeline starts if CorrectAnswers is less than 22 - The CorrectAnswers variable is displayed in the Your Score oval on both the Success and Failure layers The Problem: - The CorrectAnswers variable always shows 0 on the results slide even when all items are dropped correctly - The Failure layer always shows regardless of the score - I have confirmed all 22 triggers say Add not Set What I Think Is Happening: - The CorrectAnswers variable may be resetting to 0 when the results slide loads - Or the triggers may not be firing correctly when items are dropped Can anyone help me figure out why the variable is not carrying over to the results slide and how to get the pass/fail layers to trigger correctly based on the CorrectAnswers variable? Thank you so much in advance!34Views0likes1Commentcriteria for rise vs. storyline?
Hi all, I'm curious if anyone has established criteria that they use to evaluate whether Rise or Storyline is the best tool to build their requested training. Beyond the obvious regarding development and functionality abilities (e.g., rapid development vs. more customizable), does anyone have content-specific criteria that informs what tool they use to build their courses? I work in a compliance department so we've traditionally used Storyline for more 'gated' hand-held overviews of foundational concepts and Rise for content that iterates on those foundations. thanks!135Views0likes4CommentsIntuitive Role Playing Exercise with Feedback
Hello, is there an AI tool within Storyline or Rise where you can insert an intuitive back-and-forth role-playing activity that provides real-time feedback to users depending on their responses to help enhance communication skills during customer service calls?833Views1like20CommentsNew Storyline Characters
Hey Heroes! We have a few new characters in Storyline and want to know: where would you use them? 🎤Introducing Liana, Alexis, and Simon: Wearing an oversized blazer, Liana fits well in modern, professional settings. Dressed comfortably, Alexis is ready for casual and work-from-home scenarios. Simon is a casual character ready for situations requiring an apron. 👇Tell us how you’d use just one (or all three!), and as a bonus creative task, let us know what celebrity they remind you of.35Views1like0CommentsAccessibility - Buttons/Icons/Shapes
Hello, all! Just curious what some of you do to create accessible "buttons" in Storyline. If you use icons as buttons, how do you make sure they are keyboard and screen reader-friendly? For example, do you use a shape or a button and embed an icon? Do you just use an icon but use alt text to describe the "button's" purpose? Do you ever group items and use the group as a "button"? For example, making the individual elements not visible to accessibility tools but making the group visible and creating alt text that matches any text in the group to make the entire area selectable? Or if you were visually grouping elements, would you avoid using an actual group and only make the clickable shape with a trigger visible to accessibility tools while leaving any other elements, such as text, not visible to accessibility tools? Then creating alt text for the shape to replace any "invisible" (to accessibility tools) text? Or maybe you use a shape as an overlay and create appropriate alternative text? Or do you stick with actual buttons for all selectable elements? When exploring and auditing some courses, especially for keyboard and screen reader use, I'm seeing a variety of accessibility issues in this area, and I'm curious what you all tend to do to make "button" elements, or any selectable elements, more accessible. I definitely have my own thoughts, and it can be situational, but I would love to hear from the group about your practices with accessibility and "buttons." Feel free to share any examples you have as well! Not here to judge any answers, just really to gather information and understand why people may use different techniques for this. And if there are any native screen reader users in the group, please feel free to tell us what you've found is best! If you don't have experience with this and have any questions about why this is so important, please feel free to reach out - I am happy to help explain!Solved236Views0likes7CommentsBest Practices for Playing Storyline Content on Moodle LMS or Other LMSs
Hi everyone, I’m looking for advice on how to best play Storyline content on Moodle LMS (or other LMSs). I’ve noticed in portfolios showcasing Storyline work that the content often opens via a seamless link—likely hosted on Amazon S3—and it plays beautifully. However, when I try to upload and play my Storyline content on Moodle, I’m encountering several challenges: Embedding Content: When embedding Storyline lessons within Moodle, the player appears small and hard to navigate within the wider webpage. New Moodle Window: If I configure the content to open in a new Moodle window, the responsiveness, especially on mobile, is poor. Pop-Up Windows: Setting the Storyline player to launch in a new window works somewhat better, but it leaves behind a grey launch page in Moodle. This confuses students and users, as they often keep clicking the launch button, not realizing the lesson has already opened. This also leads to error messages. I figure this is a fairly common UX issue for anyone trying to play Storyline content in an LMS, and I’m hoping there’s a smooth solution. I’ve considered hosting all my lessons via Amazon S3 links, but that doesn’t seem ideal, as it takes users away from the LMS on a public link and could disrupt tracking and reporting. When we’ve asked our Moodle partners for help with these issues, they’ve offered to investigate, but unfortunately, this often leads to no resolution—and comes with a significant support bill that we can’t afford as a small business. They also suggested using the Moodle app for playing Storyline and SCORM files, but this isn’t a good option for us because our users access the LMS through a single sign-on system from our website to Moodle via a web browser. As a result, the Moodle app isn’t practical for our setup. So, I’m reaching out here to see if there’s any general advice or workarounds that others have found. If anyone has solutions or best practices they could share, it would be hugely appreciated! Thanks so much in advance for your help!395Views1like2CommentsStoryline 360 - Marking Complete in Workday even if Quiz is failed.
This may be a question for someone who works in Workday frequently as well, but I am having an issue with assessments allowing progression. We have a blended course where teammates have a training class in person for one week then must check in to weekly virtual meetings and perform an assessment. The assessment unlocks after the end time of the virtual meeting. When teammates go to complete the assessment, I need it to mark as complete in Workday whether they pass or fail. The issue arising is that if they do not make the 80% pass percentage the storyline file will not mark it in Workday as completed. It states that they must complete the file still. This is a problem as we do not want them to take the assessments till they pass, we need the original score and then it to lock that information in Workday. I have tried passed/failed, complete/incomplete, complete/failed, and passed/incomplete as the reporting status to the LMS (Workday) and none of them mark it as complete when the quiz is failed. I have even tried marking it complete based off of 100% view of all slides and it still did not go in as completed in the system when failed. I am not sure what to try next, but we need the original score whether it is Passed/Failed and reported to Workday that media file (lesson) is complete. Any direction or help would be appreciated!109Views0likes3CommentsAdding additional text to Text entry field
I have a course with a requirement the Learners must enter text for a text entry field. I do not want to have to use Java script. Is there a way to require that Learners enter text before advancing to the next slide, and allow them a way to enter more text when they revisit the slide? I do not want them to lose what they have already typed, I just want them to be able to add more on when they revisit the slide without losing what they have already entered. The text variable is working fine. I have tried setting it up as a freeform quiz question and as a regular slide with the text variable. Thanks for any help.Solved165Views0likes3CommentsNeed Storyline block to talk to RISE to continue
I have a small storyline project added in RISE as a SL block. The learners are required to go through all the SL slides before they can continue to the next Rise part, so I have the "you must complete the block above to continue" right below the storyline block. Is there anyway, I can have a "finished" button in the Storyline file that will talk to Rise and tell Rise to change the "you must complete the block above" into the continue button. Even a JavaScript that could do it? I don't know how to write JavaScript but I can usually figure out how to use it :-) Thanks!Solved186Views0likes3Comments
