Downloadable document from a link inside a slide in Storyline 360

Hello, 

I would like to have a link on a layer from which the user can download a Word document. Is this possible?

I've seen the possibility to add downloadable documents to a 'resources' tab, but I need a different functionality. 

Many thanks

    Can you have a URL link in storyline download vs. opening into a word document.

  • Hi Sharon,

    The behavior for how a link or file opens is specific to the individual browsers and settings a user has. There isn't a change in Storyline to control this behavior. I found this helpful document which explains how to stop downloaded files from opening automatically in Google Chrome for your reference. 

    Hope this helps!
