Articulate Storyline: Displaying Notes Pane in Specific Slides

Articulate Storyline, a widely preferred e-learning rapid authoring tool, helps develop engaging, learner-centric courses.

By default, it offers a Notes tab in the GUI of the e- courses to display the audio transcript. But what if you don’t want the notes pane to appear in some slides? Well, here is a way out.

Step 1:

First uncheck the Notes tab in the Player properties.
