Studio Features: Screens
Screen Types
There are 2 types of screens in Studio: Content Screens and Scored Screens.
- Content Screens are generally used for instructional content interwoven with self-practice questions. Content screens can include any block types available in Studio.
- Scored Screens can be used to create screens that are dedicated to assessment questions only and are designed to feel more like a quiz experience than formative assessments embedded in the content. Scored Screens can include any block types except for survey questions.
Open Screens
Navigate to a Screen by clicking the ‘Open’ button on the screen row in the TOC. A screen row is represented by this icon:
A screen represents a page in your eBook. All blocks are created and organized at the screen level. Once on a screen, you can add/modify/move blocks to create an eBook page.
Click the product name in the upper left of the screen to return to the TOC screen.
Changing a Screen Name
You can modify the screen title by clicking the edit pencil next to the screen name at the top of the screen. Changing the screen name at the screen level will also update the name on the TOC screen.
Filtering Flags
On the upper nav bar on a screen you can filter flagged blocks to view 'All Flags' or just those assigned to you, 'My Flags', via the Flags menu.
Preview/Edit Toggle
To view the screen in preview mode (view it as an end user would in Bookshelf), click the 'Preview' button in the upper right on the nav bar. The button will toggle to ‘Edit’. (All edges will be removed from the blocks and you will see the pages as it would appear to the end user in Bookshelf). To return to the Edit view click the ‘Edit’ button.
Inserting a Screen Break
On any screen, you can insert a screen break to divide the content into separate screens. To insert a screen break, roll the cursor between the blocks where you want to insert the break until the ‘+ Add Block’ line appears, then move the cursor right over the book icon to switch to the ‘Insert Screen Break’ line (the book icon color will toggle to blue). Click the book icon to insert the screen break.
All blocks below the break line will be moved to a new screen.
