Building a course that is navigable using Dragon (or similar)
Hi, I work for a Public Sector organisation, and want to make my courses as accessible as possible. I have alt text and reading order sorted, but wanted to ensure that my courses were navigable by voice navigation using Dragon or something similar. I really just need to know where Dragon takes it's name for the objects on the screen from. For instance, if there is an activity and the user has to select three objects, I want to be able to add in navigation prompts to the slide for instance 'voice navigation prompt - use raindrop 1, raindrop 2 etc'. Do I need to add alt text to the objects, or does Dragon read the object title that's displayed on the timeline? Or am I overthinking this, and Dragon makes it clear to the user what the object is called and so what they need to say to select it? thanks!Triggers being created when using form view to edit feedback
We have a file we're using as a comprehensive test. The test consists of multiple choice and multiple response questions. Some multiple choice questions have custom feedback per incorrect answer selection and some have just correct/incorrect feedback. We do not want the feedback to hide after the learner clicks continue on the feedback, so we have deleted these triggers. HOWEVER, on the questions that have custom feedback per answer, if we use the form view to edit the feedback storyline recreates the "hide layer when user clicks continue". Then, what is way more concerning, if we use the form view to edit the feedback on the questions that just have basic correct or incorrect feedback by question, storyline creates TWO triggers -- "hide layer when timeline ends" and "jump to next slide when timeline ends". If we just edit the feedback on the actual layer instead of using the form view, these triggers aren't created. This is a real problem, as the form view is obviously much faster for us to use and edit when we're making a file of 50+ questions, but not if we then have to go back and delete erroneous triggers on every layer and QA additional time to ensure none of them were missed. Anyone have ideas? I'm assuming this is a bug... seems like it wouldn't be a useful "feature" :)Question feedback layers automatically adding triggers when feedback is edited in Form View
This has happened in a number of different modules, all built from a standard new file. I've seen a few other posts about this, but it doesn't seem like anyone from Articulate interacted. Issue: Whenever we have feedback on a question that is updated directly via the Form View, Storyline will automatically add in 2 triggers; "Jump to Next Slide" and "Hide Layer when Timeline ends" to the feedback layer that was edited (See gif 1). The feedback layers are the default feedback layers, with edited background graphics (and the original continue button removed). These 2 triggers are not present on the Feedback Masters. Editing the feedback via the layer itself does not create the two triggers, but does update the text in the Form View. I think this might be a bug/hidden unwanted feature of the branching quiz system, because if I set the feedback's branching to "unassigned", it automatically creates the two triggers, with the "jump to slide" trigger as unassigned (see gif 2). This is causing a lot of headaches for modules that we make edits to or update, as its breaking the functionality of the continue button. It appears that if you remove the original triggers that are tied to the continue button when you first create the question slide, every time you edit the feedback text on the Form View, it automatically creates the triggers and assigns them to timeline end (even if you have the original button from the Feedback Master present on the layer) (See gif 3) Is there a way to disable this function that automatically adds in these triggers? It's super counterintuitive to the way the slide is set up, and adjusting the feedback should not change how the layer itself works. Steps to recreate issue: Create a new freeform question slide By right clicking in left scene panel > New Slide > Freeform Question... > Pick One Select and view the Correct or Incorrect layers and delete the 2 triggers Hide layer this layer when the user clicks Continue Jump to slide next slide when the user clicks Continue Open the Form View and edit the feedback text (for whichever layer you removed the triggers from) Return to the layer and find the 2 new triggers automatically created and assigned to timeline end Storyline version: v3.114.36655.0Storyline and Workday Learning issue with reporting correct score
We have a very frustrating scenario with storyline and workday, so im hoping someone may have also experienced the same issue and can help!! We have created a 60 question quiz in storyline with a pass rate of 60% , there is a timer of 30 mins. The SCORM is published in 2004 4th edition. Workday records the score correctly when the users complete the quiz, but the next day when checking the scores they are different in workday than what they are in the SCORM file. For instance an employee scores 75% which workday picks up, but then a few hours later it will say a different score such as 68%. Workday are adamant it's the SCORM file but when reaching out to SCORM cloud for advice they have said in order for the course to change status in an LMS, the course would need to be actively in session. I have uploaded the courses to SCORM cloud and so far they haven't changed scores which makes me think its the LMS However when we have used Adobe Captivate for a similar quiz, we do not get this issue, so I can see why workday are saying it's the SCORM, but I don't know what we need to change in order to make it work. The settings are the exactly the same as the storyline file in terms of completion the only difference is that storyline gives us a "pass/fail" "complete/incomplete" etc option. Has anyone had anything similar to this and if so what was the solution?Scores Changing in LMS. Issues with SCORM Packaging
Can anyone provide insight on how to set up a SCORM file using Storyline to read from 0 to 100? Currently, in Workday ETC is running overnight, and it's changing scores in our LMS. What Workday support was able to provide is that the ETC is reading the file and grabbing the highest score. A learner may complete the quiz with a 56.25%, but when ETC is grabbing the highest score, which in the photo below, is 83.33%. Apparently, the file is set to read from 100 to 0, and I'm not sure how to fix this. We need to configure the file to show the last score being recorded as the highest score, so ETC captures the correct score. Current quiz settings: Passing %: 80%. Published as Passed/Incomplete; we've also done Passed/Failed.Storyline audio stops working on random slides
I’ve been working with Storyline for some time, but this time I’ve encountered an issue where I’m unable to identify any clear cause or logic behind what’s happening. I currently have four modules published from Storyline, both for SCORM and Review. During the review process, one of my colleagues commented that a particular slide did not have audio. However, when I checked, the audio was present on the slide timeline and played correctly on my end in both Review and Preview. Another co-worker of mine also confirmed that the audio worked for her. 🙃 I then published the module to SCORM and uploaded it to Moodle. While conducting final testing, I noticed that a few slides are experiencing the same issue. The audio does not play when the slide starts. To make the audio work, I either need to: go back to the previous slide and return to the slide, or let the slide timeline finish (in restricted mode), then drag the timeline back to the beginning, at which point the audio starts playing. I would prefer not to create a trigger on every slide to play the audio, as the audio should automatically play when the slide timeline starts. Additionally, most of the slides are working correctly, and only a few slides are affected, which makes it difficult to determine the cause. if anyone has encountered similar issues and have some suggestions or tips on how to fix this. I would greatly appreciate the help!!!AI Text to speech not updating closed captions
When I create a new AI text-to-speech file it adds captions just fine. * But when I go to update that file on the timeline, even with the "generate CC" box checked, it still has the old captions. If I delete the existing captions, re-generate the audio with the box checked, and save, no new captions appear. What can be done about this? * Also, the AI generation doesn't honor SSML very well. I can't correct its pronunciation of certain words without writing the prompt phonetically, then manually changing the CC every time I update the script."Retake Course" issue
Hi community, I have a "retake course" button at the end of my courses (the trigger says "Restart course") in case learners want to go through the material again, but I notice strange issues tend to occur sometimes when taking the course a second time using the 'retake course' button (such as an arrow button to go to the next slide not working, or text on the base layer showing through on other layers when they didn't on the first pass (and shouldn't anyway based on how I've designed the course). For today, the problem is this: I have a knowledge check at the end of one of my sections in a course. When a learner takes the course the first time, they're able to complete the knowledge check and click Submit in the bottom-right corner with no issues. However, if they click "retake course" at the end of the course and go through the material again, the Submit button disappears on the knowledge check slide and is replaced by <PREV NEXT> buttons, except the NEXT> button doesn't work, so the learner is stuck on this page. I've been able to recreate this on my end several times now. Any thoughts on how to fix? Should I simply remove the "retake course" button from the end of my courses to avoid all these random issues, or am I missing design steps when implementing this button using the 'restart course' trigger?Major Storyline Audio Playback Issues
I have recently been receiving a lot of feedback from my course testers that there have been issues with audio not playing, audio only partly playing, incorrect audio playing or layer audio overlapping when they visit the slide initially, however when they return to the slide the audio works as designed. Even weirder, two people may be testing the exact same package and will experience completely different audio glitches and some testers experience no glitches at all. These tests have been done on both Review360 and in SCORM 1.2 and 2004 on our LMS. It has been tested in both Edge and Chrome. There are no issues with the timeline and the audio is not attached to any triggers. I've been using Storyline for around a decade now and have never encountered an issue like this. From looking at the forums here it seems that a number of people are having similar issues, with no solutions provided or any update/explanations as to why this may be occurring. This is incredibly frustrating, as it means nothing can get past quality control and be provided to clients. Has anyone experienced this and found a fix?
