Creating a Tab Interaction in Articulate Storyline 360

Great interactions don’t have to be complicated — sometimes a clean, well-built tab interaction is exactly what your learners need. In this mini course, Sensei Jeff will walk you through how to create a polished, functional tab interaction from scratch inside Articulate Storyline 360.

Jeff kicks things off by talking about finding visual inspiration for your tab interaction, helping you think through design before you ever open Storyline. From there, you’ll learn how to set up your Articulate Storyline file the right way from the start — structured and organized so it can be easily shared with other members of your team.

You’ll dive into building custom buttons and custom button states that go beyond the defaults, adding layers of functionality and visual feedback that elevate the learner experience. Jeff also covers the proper way to set up any interaction inside Storyline so it stays easy to manage, update, and repurpose as a template down the road.

Finally, you’ll bring it all together as Sensei Jeff walks you through using triggers and variables to power the interactivity of the tab experience. You’ll finish the course knowing not just how to build this specific interaction, but how to properly package and share your creation with teammates so anyone on your team can pick it up and run with it.
