More advanced, nonlinear projects often call for more advanced solutions. In cases such as these, Storyline’s built-in triggers and logic system often lead to an unwieldy and difficult-to-manage course. Using JavaScript in conjunction with Storyline’s built-in triggers and variables, you can greatly expand Storyline’s capabilities while reducing the overall effort.

In this session, you will learn how to set up Storyline to handle external files such as JavaScript, JSON and jQuery. You will learn how to use JSON as the data source for your course and how to use JavaScript and jQuery to get the maximum value of a Storyline variable. You will be able to perform multistep advanced calculations based on variable values or any of Storyline 2’s built-in triggers. Finally, you will learn how to use web objects to simulate dynamic information from your Storyline 2 course.

In this session, you will learn:

• How to integrate jQuery and JavaScript into your project
• How to use JavaScript to expand the logic capabilities in Storyline triggers
• Techniques to make your Storyline courses more dynamic
• How to get and set Storyline variables with JavaScript
• How to maintain an application state outside of Storyline

Audience:
Intermediate and advanced designers, developers, and project managers.

Technology discussed in this session:
