Scope
- Simulation content object > Intro Page macro
Purpose
The Intro Page macro can be used to add an 'introduction page' to a simulation. This page is displayed before the first application screen, and can be used to provide some introductory information for the simulation. (Technically, you can insert the Intro Page macro anywhere in the Simulation, but it only really makes sense to have it in the 'Start' step.)
If you insert an Intro Page you probably also want to use an End Page, which performs a similar function, at the end of the simulation. And if you do use an End Page, you should probably specify a Style property of Gold Reflection, as the End Page will use this style (and you cannot change it for the End Page).
If you use an Intro Page you have the option to use one or more Intro Page Start Link macros to provide start buttons to jump directly to specific Steps within the Simulation. This is useful if you want to provide 'jump-in points'.
