Dynamic Presenter Fields

In previous versions of Articulate Presenter, it was necessary to specify what presenter fields you wanted to display to your users. With Articulate Presenter 5, the software is smarter and does this for you — based on what field values you’ve populated in Articulate -> Library and Options -> Presenters. This is powerful not just for a single presenter, but when you have a single course or presentation with multiple presenters.

For example, here we see the email button for Julie Knight since we’ve provided an email address for her:

By contrast, if I choose not to include my email address in my presenter setup, the email button will be automatically suppressed from my presenter pane:

Julie and I can both present in the same presentation, and the Articulate Player will automatically adjust to display only the presenter fields with data. Note the empty email field in this example:
