Hide Articulate Engage Controls

Do you want to hide the title bars and/or navigation controls in Articulate Engage?  There's a widget for that!  Purchase the widget for $10.  While you are on the site, check out the other widgets and the Articulate templates for sale.
  1. Edit the XML file provided - http://screenr.com/tWW has detailed instructions for editing.  I created a folder in my working directory to make the next step easier
  2. Publish your Articulate course and then put the edited XML file along with the "null.swf" file in the "player" folder of the published directory.
  3. Each time you re-publish, make sure you copy the files again since Articulate wipes out the folder when re-publishing.
