For some time now, I’ve been interested in learning more about how you can add JavaScript into Storyline. Since I’m not working and social distancing, I have some time to explore JavaScript. Of course, the first thing I did was search YouTube and found a neat tutorial from David at eLearning Locker. (Seriously, what did we do before YouTube, and do we really utilize it enough as a training resource?)
I like David’s idea, but made a few adjustments. I think saving trees is important, but most organizations I know would prefer to talk about cost savings that can result from eliminating unnecessary printing.
This same effect could be completed using triggers, but they would be near endless. By using JavaScript you eliminate numerous triggers and make future updates or adjustments to the lesson easier. My next goal is to learn how to update the number in the JavaScript to appear as currency.
Use the link below to see how unnecessary printing drives up operational costs:
