Link from an image to this image but in a new browser window

ActivePresenter Support Questions

Problem: The module I’m working on would ultimately require being able to use it on 2 monitors. A first monitor for the module itself (intended for the teacher). A second monitor to display images (intended for the learner).
Accordingly, I would like to hyperlink an image (in the module on the first monitor) to the display of that same image, large (in a new browser window on the second monitor).

Is this possible?
How ?

Thank you.

Hi Gilloo,

There’s no reliable method to open a new browser window on the second monitor.
However, you can use script to open a new browser window, drag it to the second monitor manually once, and reuse that browser window.
To do that, you can add the following script to an advanced action, and run that advanced action in On Click events of your images:

// image_window is the browser window name
// this script will reuse the browser window with that name if it exists,
// or open a new window otherwise
window.open(this.imageNode.src, 'image_window', 'width=1280, height=720');

Regards

Thanks for your answer.
Can you show me or tell me how I do that ?

If you don’t know how to use advanced actions, please read this tutorial: Work With Advanced Action in ActivePresenter 8 - Atomi Systems, Inc.
Using an advance action here instead of cloning the Execute JavaScript action for each iamge will save your time in case you want to change the script later.
