Create a new Blank Flow Project

Steps to create a new Claro project.

In this example, we'll choose a Player Experience (the navigation framework) then choose a design template.

The process will automatically create a Title page to get you started.

A Baseline is a great way to speed up the development of new projects, especially if you have many projects that all share a standard structure.

For example, all your eLearning courses will have an Introduction with the same three pages, and each lesson has essentially the same structure, etc.

A Baseline is a project that your authors can quickly duplicate to start a new project, and they're available on the Create New Project panel.

You can set any project to be a Baseline. That could be ...

Steps to import a PowerPoint file to create a Claro Project.

The import process decompiles the PowerPoint file into its component parts then reassembles the parts on fully editable Claro Pages.

You can not import PowerPoint to create a Flow course.

You can create a custom Section by starting with the Add a Blank Row option under the blue + sign at the bottom of your Flow Page then adding more Rows to that Section.

This lesson outlines how to add more Rows to the intial Section.

Baselines are project frameworks that your team creates as a starting point for similar projects. A Baseline can have as many pages and learning objects as needed.

Any project can be set to be used as a baseline by an administrator. Setting as a baseline allows anyone, regardless of assignments to use the baseline without allowing them to change the original project.

This lesson outlines the steps to use a Baseline as the basis for a new Project.

Steps to add a new Page using a Starter Template.

The design sets for pages include a variety of template Page options, refered to as Starters.

Editing text in a text element is almost exactly the same in Flow and Claro.

In both modes you double-click on the text element to be able to enter. When you're finished your edits you select either another element or a blank area of the page to leave the text element. At that point the changes you made will be saved.

In this example we change the default text in two elements previously added to the Flow page by adding a Section.

Steps to add a pre-made Section to a Flow page.

There is a wide range of available Sections that can be used by following these steps. This example shows adding a Section with a Title and Subtitle.

Adding multiple Sections to a Flow page is a great way to create a longer, scrolling experience for your learners.

Steps to add a Tab set component from the Engage tab to an empty Placeholder on a Flow Page.

Engage components have their own internal responive behavior when used in Flow pages. Tab sets, for example, can change from a horizontal tab set to a vertical accordion menu based on breakpoint. This provides a better user experience on a narrower screen such a smartphone held in portrait orientation.

You can create your own custom Section layouts using the Add a Blank Row option available under the blue + sign at the bottom of a Flow page.

You start by adding the first Row you want to start with, then continue adding more Rows.

This lesson outlines how to do this.
