The Start Template appears at the start of a learning bite and gives a short introduction about its content, supported by media (image or video) in the top of the screen.
Setting it up
You set up this template in two places in Studio: the panel on the left, and the preview on the right.
In the left panel
Select type of media*
Choose what is shown at the top of the screen: Image, Video or Video URL.
In the preview
The media, heading and text are edited directly in the preview.
Image
Image uploader for JPG, PNG, GIF.
Hide the image overlay (checkbox)
Only shown when you select Image.
The image has a dark overlay to increase readability of the text.
Ticking this box removes the overlay. Please note that this might reduce readability.
Video
Click the pencil icon in the top right corner of the video to choose one of these options:
Upload video: upload an MP4 file with H.264 codec
Select from library: use a video you uploaded before
Upload video poster: upload an image (JPG, PNG, GIF) used as the video thumbnail
Select poster from library: use an image you uploaded before as the thumbnail
Video URL
URL (e.g. from Vimeo, YouTube). These videos cannot be styled since they will adopt the styling of the video player of whatever website they are coming from.
