Sequencing and effects

Sequencing elements can enrich the document and help learners digest information better as the document gradually builds. Sequencing can be combined with effects and narration to enhance the overall experience.

Adding a sequence

  • Select all the elements that should be sequenced (use Shift+Click for multiple selection) and use Design > Sequencing. This will open the Sequence Manager dialog allowing you to configure the order, timing, effects, and more.
  • Alternatively, you can manually assign elements to participate in the sequence by setting their <Sequence Active> property to on, as well as their <Effect Type> property to the desired effect. Sequencing properties are available under the Settings tab of the Properties pane.

Precise control over the associated effects, order, timing and many other settings is available in the Sequence Manager dialog. It is divided into two tabs; the Main tab controls common settings, while the Elements tab can be used to control the behavior of specific elements.

After you’ve created your documents and pages, you can learn how to create tests.
