Build Hover-to-Reveal Content Panels Without Coding
Build Hover-to-Reveal Content Panels Without Coding
Rise shows everything at once or hides it behind a click. Sometimes you want detail to appear the moment a learner explores, but building hover-reveal interactions in Storyline means hotspots, states, and triggers for every panel.
The Hover Reveal Panel generator lets you build each panel and its hidden detail visually, then export a single HTML file and embed in Articulate Rise, Storyline, Captivate, Canvas, Moodle, or any LMS that accepts HTML.
Use it for labeled diagrams, comparison layouts, and any content that feels cleaner when detail appears on demand, keeping the screen clean while every detail stays one hover away.
How To Use the Generators
Each tool in the eLearningDesign.org ecosystem follows a streamlined, three-step workflow designed to keep you focused on instructional strategy while we handle the technical execution.
Input Your Content: Open the Content tab to add your specific learning prompts, interactive options, and coaching feedback. This is where you build the logic and instructional heart of your activity.
Customize Your Design: Switch to the Design tab to align the tool with your course aesthetic. You can manually adjust colors, typography, and layout structures to ensure a seamless visual fit.
Generate and Embed: Go to the Generate tab to finalize your tool. Click "Copy Embed Code" for your authoring tool's HTML block, or "Download as HTML" for local hosting and offline use.
