StoryMaps -Briefings : Navigate through slides using arrow keys

[MelissaBrooks]

In the new StoryMaps Briefings:

It would be good to have the ability to transition through the slides using the arrows keys on the keyboard (right = forwards and left=backwards)

This might allow for remote control (slide clickers) integration to make slick presentations more achievable.  

Additionally adding a left mouse-click to advance would complement this added functionality.

It would be good to have the ability to transition through the slides using the arrows keys on the keyboard (right = forwards and left=backwards)

The ability to navigate a briefing using the left/right arrow keys will be available later today!

This might allow for remote control (slide clickers) integration to make slick presentations more achievable.  

The left/right arrow navigation feature mentioned above may work with some models of slide remotes/clickers, but we are doing more testing and research to improve the support for more types of remotes in the future.

Additionally adding a left mouse-click to advance would complement this added functionality.

Since briefings contain more dynamic/interactive content than many other presentations, we are not planning to add a left-click to advance since this may not work as expected depending on where the person using the briefing clicks.

There are arrow buttons at the top of the screen that allow for easy navigation via mouse as well as a table of contents panel that can be expanded for more deliberate navigation.
