If you want to make your interactions clickable, you can add an action type to them. Learn what action types are possible and view examples for inspiration.
Action types
With most interactions you can choose to add one of the following actiontypes:
Jump to a specific time in the video | This action type works with a timestamp. Fill in the desired time for your video to continue. |
Jump to a specific time in the video - Scheduled | This works the same as the previous action type, except that the clicked interaction jumps on a scheduled moment. |
Jump to start of video | When a viewer clicks on an interaction with this action type, the video will directly jump to the beginning of the video |
Jump to end of video | This action type will make the video jump directly to the end. |
Jump to interaction | After selecting this action type you can choose between the other interactions in your video. If a user clicks, the video will jump to this other interaction. |
Hyperlink | With this action type you can link to online content, such as a website or an online pdf file....or an interactive video. Just add the URL. If the viewer clicks on an interaction with this action type, the URL will open in another tab. If you add a link to another interactive video you can choose to open this video in the same frame and player and specify the starting time. Or take a look at the linked video interaction. |
Show score screen | By clicking on an interaction with this action type, the viewer can inspect their results on the questions they've already answered. |
