Storyline 360 | Create an interactive slider timeline

In this tutorial, learn how to create an interactive process timeline in Articulate Storyline 360 using a slider and custom pop-ups to showcase events or steps in a timeline.

As the user drags the slider, pop-up messages will show when the slider head is within the bounds of the red markers. Once a pop-up has been visited, its corresponding marker will change its state, showing that this part of the process has been completed.
