Slide Show in Robohelp

[Priya Bharatia]

Can we have a slide show in Robohelp 2017 like we do in Power Point? We publish using the Responsive Server. I am looking to have 3 radio buttons and each of this showing different brief information  that will be displayed automatically with say 15 second interval. Is that possible?

Never heard of that before in RH...

Indeed, this is something you could do easily using Captivate.

You don't say which version of RoboHelp you are using, but if you are using version 2019 with the new UI, I believe there is an example of this in the Learn a Latte sample project that is included with the application.

Cheers... Rick 🙂

Duh, I'm a doofus. I see you clearly stated RoboHelp 2017. Sorry about that.

So I fired up RoboHelp 2019 and recorded what you would have seen if you had it installed and looked at the project I mentioned. The recording of that is below:

Notice that it will endlessly cycle through the images as well as allowing the user to click a dot to display that particular image in the sequence.

Cheers... Rick 🙂

I don't believe it is with Powerpoint. See this post.

Not sure if something could be done with Captivate or video.

And then scroll down to the Automatic Slideshow section for an example with a time-specified interval.
