Step Properties has four sections in which you can change its properties.

  1. Content
  2. Appearance
  3. Position
  4. Triggers

Content

In this section, you can add content which your users will see. We recommend keeping the content brief and informative.You can add rich text, special characters, links to other relevant pages, images, audios, or videos that can be displayed to the users when they interact with the step.

Appearance

In this section, you can modify the appearance of the step. 

You can change the step’s appearance, animations, shadow, border, user interaction limitations, visibility, and the layout of the step. 

Position

If you have a preferred position of the step bubble you can define it here.

In case your preferred position can not be shown due to space constraints, YesElf would place it in the most suitable position in a clockwise direction.

Reselect allows you to change the element which was previously associated with this step on the application. The preview button allows you to preview the step’s element position so you can reposition it by clicking on to  Reselect if needed.

Triggers

You can individually define the trigger parameters for both the starting and completion of the step.  These parameters change the step’s behavior depending on what the user is expected to do so the next step can be triggered.
