Screencast

A strong title if I do say so myself; perhaps we can’t control their emotions, but we can certainly control their facial expressions. This screencast shows you how to use a slider and state change triggers to control a built-in character’s facial expressions in Storyline. *Apologies for being all over the place and not editing the scatterbrain out of this demo; I’m a flying baby and just got off a 6-7 hour flight. Bear with me!

Here’s an easy way to create a very simple drag and drop interaction using the convert to freeform functionality in Articulate Storyline. Check out the screencast below!

Today’s screencast is a quick one: reordering scenes in Articulate Storyline. Check out the video below!

Today I’m sharing how I create a tabbed layout. I start with a styled screen so you don’t have to stare at a blank canvas the entire time, and then I go through adding all of the essential elements of a tabbed layout:

• A prompt on the base layer (which I think is essential for almost any interactivity students need to engage in
• The tabs – I used the rectangle shape; you can use buttons if you like – Storyline 1 and 2 has me brainwashed into using the rectangle as a button
• The container for which the content will appear when tabs are selected – again, I used a rectangular shape
• The layers containing the content that will appear, along with a close button.

Once all of these elements were created and content was populated, I went back to the base layer to make the tabs functional. This is as easy as creating a show layer trigger for each of the tabs. Easy peasy!
