Overview

The Select object The Select Object interaction emits an event Event once the learner selects the object with their controller (point and click).

An example of how the Select object the Select object interaction could be used is when the learner is presented with several items and must select from the available options. If the learner selects the correct object, the scenario Scenario will proceed.

World Object

The object to be selected.

Optional Fields

Description

Require All Targets

If more than one World Object is designated, this would require all.  Otherwise referred to as Target Object.

Prompts

Add an effect or text to draw attention to the item you'd like the learner to.

Prompt Anchor

Object Interaction prompts without an anchor will end up on the object you are targeting because they’re meant as annotation or extra information about the object in question. If you want to accompany an Object Interaction with additional information for the learner, you could add a Notification or Screen Message to the

Frame as well.
