Chaining multiple HelpXplain animations

You can use the web page link option to chain multiple Xplains. This can help you to avoid creating excessively large single-page infographics that would overload web browsers on some users' systems. Just create a web link to the next Xplain in your last slide, or in any slide where you want to move to a different infographic.

Object scripts for advanced users and developers

In addition to regular click actions you can also assign your own scripts to be executed when the user interacts with an element. See Object Scripts for details in the Developers chapter.
