MichaelFimian Great job, David! Thanks for the ideas. I can think of a number of different uses for these examples.... Michaelpermalink

Urica Hi, Is is possible to get the background and open door images from this example? I am working on a storyline scenario and this would work perfectly. Thanks, Uricapermalink

E_Newbie Thanks. I think I'll pick up where you left off. I'm using the design to build an e-learning on avian protection for a electric utility company.permalink

elearning @E_Newbie - When we did this makeover, we only redesigned one slide. The intention, however, was to make each tree icon on the bottom of the page link to a new slide.permalink

E_Newbie How did you make the "tree tabs" at the bottom? Are they hyperlinked to other slides?permalink

elearning Hey Linda - There are so many hidden gems in Storyline that it wouldn't have surprised me to learn there was another way to work with changing variables. I really appreciate your time working this out. I had my "mea culpa" ready the entire time:-)permalink

elearn27 David, you were correct, I was referring to the ellipsis button on the 'Trigger Wizard', sorry about that mistake. And, as you state, this led me to the variable box that enabled me to create a new variable and choose a new type. I mistakenly thought I was able to change the type of the current variable - instead, I can only choose a new type while creating a new variable. Thanks for sharing your knowledge - and sorry for the red-herring... Lindapermalink

elearning @elearn27 - Okay, do you mean the Set Variable drop down menu? In the menu, you can change the variable to adjust, but you won't be able to change the type from a text variable to a number variable. Here's a screenshot of what I mean: http://d.pr/i/3n12 You'll see in the Project Variables window that there are 2 Text variables and a Number and True/False variables. In the Trigger Wizard, however, we can only change to another text variable. Is this what you mean? permalink

elearn27 Hi David, no, I am not referring to the ellipsis. Instead of clicking the 'X' button, as you do at 2:10, that is under the Triggers panel, 'double-click' the "Set TextEntry..." item right inside the Triggers Panel, above the 'X'. You actually hover your cursor over the item that I am referring to, from 1:35 to 1:55 in the video. A wizard box appears and the center line allows one to edit the variable type. I created a screenshot but I am not sure where I can upload it to for viewing... Lindapermalink

elearning @elearn27 - Hi and thanks for your comment. Are you referring to the ellipsis button on the Trigger Wizard that opens? If so, that will enable you to create a new variable and choose a new type: http://bit.ly/120qAcS Can you confirm that's what you're doing?permalink
