Bonjour Heroes.
I know you've all worked hard, so I'm offering you almost 40 hours of relaxation. Don't thank me, it's my pleasure.

I used sliders to create my buttons in order to have the sliding movement, as well as the click for the off position (also accessible via the keyboard). I ran into a number of problems I'd never encountered before, and learned how to offer videos that launch automatically. A good day.

- JayashreeRavi-65 months agoCommunity MemberThis is so good, Thierry!
- ThaddaeusSmith5 months agoCommunity MemberVery nice, Thierry! I could use this in my everyday life! The videos are not playing for me, though. I just see the image and I cannot press the play button and they don't play automatically.
- SabrinaSgoda-335 months agoCommunity MemberSooo relaxing!
I ran into the issue that the videos wouldn't play (neither automaticcaly nor clicking on it) the first time I toggled each ambience. Once I toggled trough each of them, they started to play automatically. May be related to loading issues due to video size?- ThierryEMMANUEL5 months agoCommunity MemberFor your information: videos are not integrated into the module (so there's no problem with weight). I used Youtube videos inserted as web objects, following the procedure described here: https://access.articulate.com/fr-FR/support/article/How-to-Add-YouTube-Videos-to-Articulate-Storyline-360-Courses
(sorry, I can't find this page in English).
So the web object address is https://www.youtube.com/embed/video_id?autoplay=1 where I replace “video_id” with the Youtube video ID, then “?autoplay=1” which automatically starts playback. This works for me. I don't know why it blocks for others.- SabrinaSgoda-335 months agoCommunity MemberTrès intéressant! I wanted to try it in another browser (Chrome instead of Edge) an now only the fullscreen toggle button seems to work. Did you change anything?
- ThierryEMMANUEL5 months agoCommunity MemberThanks for your feedback, Thaddaeus and Sabrina. Yes, the videos should start automatically (with the settings in SL). Sorry for the problems that make my demo not so relaxing. But I don't know how to solve them. Jayashree and the others (?) don't seem to have encountered them. So perhaps it's more a question of your browsers' settings refusing automatic launches of (inappropriate) videos. Good to know.
- ThierryEMMANUEL5 months agoCommunity MemberMANY THANKS TO ANGE CM, who was kind enough to respond to my request for help on the "Building Better Course" discussion and who noticed (how stupid of me!) that I'd placed a rectangle above the videos to prevent pausing/playing when the videos had started automatically (on Firefox, but on no other browser apparently). And I'd forgotten about those rectangles! Chrome and Edge users can now relax and enjoy the fully functional demo. Thanks Ange.
