New options for Interactive Simulation

The Interactive Simulation element has received several new appearance options.

All of the options can be found in the settings of the simulation on the right hand.

Inline player

If you disable “Simulation in fullscreen player”, the simulation will be presented within the content instead of opening in an overlay.

Large image/video

Using this option the image or video can be shown in a larger format.
If you add a new simulation, this option will be enabled by default.

Questions, answers and feedback on images/videos

Instead of presenting questions, answers and feedback beneath the image or video, those will be shown within the image/video.
This option is only available if you enable “Large image/video” and will be enabled for new simulations by default.

Navigation to the previous scene possible

If enabled, the simulation will show a “back” button in the top left, allowing users to navigate back to their previous scene – which ever that is.

Numbering of answers

“Numbering of answers in colored circle” can be used to completely turn off that the numbering is shown.
“Numbers instead of letters” switches the letters used by default to numbers.

Interactive simulation – reconstruction in the backend

We have rebuilt the technology of the simulation. This update forms the basis for all further developments of the element. Current state: From the author’s point of view, there are slight differences to the previous UI in the editing dialog. From a learner’s perspective, the difference in the UI is barely noticeable. We have also used the update to slightly adjust the design of the answer options.
