Hi everyone, I've got a question for you. I want to create a picture with round corners en specifically set the corner 'roundness' (Is that a word? It is now!) I tend just to use one of the preset picture styles and remove the effects I don't need but was thinking there has to be a better way? I described what I do now in this screencast: //www.screenr.com/4Lx7999Views0likes7CommentsProgress bar in Articulate Storyline: Easy solution, using only one built-in variable
Hey everyone, I have created a video on how to create a progress bar in Storyline 360 - using only one built-in variable. I'm using the built-in variable Menu.Progress in the slide master. Prior to recording this I only found solutions where you add triggers on the slides where you want your progress bar to fill up. You needed an extra variable to keep track of your progress and you would also have to put some kind of check in place, so that the progress bar doesn't fill up if you revisit a slide. If you create your progress bar this way, you have to make many adjustments when you add or delete slides in your project. What I found is that you can use the built-in variable Menu.Progress to get rid of this hassle. I wanted to share this with you because I think it saves a lot of time in production and maintenance of your course.299Views0likes54CommentsFamily Feud Game
I wanted to share my Family Feud game. Here is the link: Family Feud This game is designed for the presenter/instructor/trainer to be the Host and control the board for both teams/players by sharing their screen virtually or in-person. The Host will also download the survey questions/answers or open them on a separate screen that is not being shared. This includes the fast money round at the end as well. The source file is below. I hope that you enjoy!299Views0likes15CommentsStoryline Carousel Template (free download)

This question pops up over and over again, so i made a new post i can point to whenever someone asks about this. For Storyline360, either in your published folder or in the Programme folder find the slides.min.js file. (C:\Program Files (x86)\Articulate\360\Storyline\player\unified\html5\lib\scripts) What i did was unminifying the file...so it becomes what more readable Used this here...https://unminify.com/ I added several console.log("now this happens") to the slides.min.js to figure out where what happened exactly and thus soon found that there are several functions in it that cause the playbutton on mobiles. onMobileStart createMobileStartOverlay showMobileStartOverlay killMobileStartOverlay All quite promising...so could i just call one of these functions ? After several tests and retry's i found that just adding this.onStart(); at the end of the onMobileStart function overrides the play button and mobile behaves as desired. So this is onMobileStart inside slides.min.js onMobileStart: function (t) { var e, n = this; (this.rejectDeferred = t.rejectDeferred), o.addClass(document.body, "resume-shown"), (e = { visible: !0 }), t.mobileStartAsPrompt && (e.isResumePrompt = !0), this.setState(e, function () { var t = null != n.refs.resume ? n.refs.resume : n.refs.playIcon; c.env.is360 || t.focus(), l.trigger(u.startOverlay.READY); }); this.onStart(); }, Adding my slides.min.js file for anyone to test it with. Make sure though to copy and save your original one somewhere, so in case of troubles you can go back. Also keep in mind that whenever Articulate updates Storyline this file will be updated too, and you need to do the procedure above again. DO NOT copy and replace the slides.min.js file with this one after updates...because Articulate might have changed things...so not advised using an older file. Redo the steps and change your own slides.min.js file.199Views0likes63CommentsPrint ANYTHING in StoryLine
By adding a new tab in the player properties panel and assigning it to execute the "window.print();" JavaScript, you can allow your participants to print any/every slide in your StoryLine projects including "Notes" or "Certificate" slides! No need to create a complex JavaScript course certificate solution, simply build a beautiful slide and let your users print it directly from the StoryLine player! For SL 3 and 360 users, you can also move, reformat, hide, and reveal the button so you can take control over what users can print. I've included the screen shots I used in the video in the attached Word document along with the JavaScript code snippets and an SL3 .story file.156Views0likes206CommentsElevate Your Skills with These Must-See Webinars!

Hello, everyone! I've always been drawn to creating something unique using Articulate Storyline, and I decided to challenge myself by developing the classic game "Snake" without using JavaScript and web objects, relying solely on Storyline triggers. Development: It took me around 600 triggers to develop the Snake game. How is the snake movement implemented? Each segment of the snake is a separate object with four movement directions (up, down, left, and right), triggered sequentially. When element1 completes its movement (e.g., upward or in any other direction), element2 starts moving in the same direction. Essentially, each subsequent element replicates the movement of the previous one after its completion. How is the snake growth mechanic implemented? In reality, our snake is always at its maximum size, but at the beginning of the game, only the first 3 snake elements have a "State Normal," while the rest have a different state with elements' transparency set to 100%. So, we simply don't see the remaining part of the tail. After picking up an apple, we switch the next tail element to "Normal." How is the losing mechanic implemented? When the head of our snake collides with any tail element (visible or invisible), we check how many apples have been collected. This helps us determine whether this element is visible or not. If visible, we lose; if not, the game continues. Conclusion and Lessons: This project confirmed for me that Articulate Storyline can be a powerful tool not only for education but also for creating engaging games. The limitations became a source of inspiration, and I learned to see new possibilities where I hadn't seen them before. Creating the "Snake" game in Articulate Storyline is a story of how creativity can overcome technical constraints.
