I’m trying to create an interactive slide in a responsive project and want to have the user use a screwdriver to remove the correct screws from an image of a device. It’s simple in theory, but putting it into practice is giving me far more of a headache than it should. I can think of a couple ways to accomplish this, but am hoping someone more experienced can tell me a better way to do this.
1 – Somehow changing the user’s mouse cursor to a cur file of a screwdriver and then simply having the user click where I want them to. I have made the cur file, but haven’t figured out how to change the user’s mouse cursor on a slide. I was able to find a widget that used to do this in Flash, but that’s not going to work anymore.
2 – Using the mouse object with the screwdriver cur file and having it path over the screws. The problem I have with this is that I can only get the path to go to one screw. Is there an option to have multiple mouse objects, or to add points to the path? The only other solution to this one I can think of is to make multiple slides or make a screen recording.
3 – Using a drag and drop interaction instead. Using an image of the screwdriver as the source and transparent shapes as the target. The problem I have with this so far is that I can’t seem to figure out how to reuse the source screwdriver. If I wasn’t making a responsive project, I would layer multiple sources on top of each other. Otherwise, I have to show multiple screwdrivers on the screen and while that “works,” it’s not really the effect we’re going for.
Any and all advice would be appreciated, thank you very much.
