Storyline Record Screen and Insert Zoom Region
Sep 23, 2013
I have recorded a simulation using storyline's record screen - but the UI i need to record is very wide - which ends up making the type very small. I can use the Zoom Region to focus on the parts of the product I want to display at any given point in time - but I need to move to different areas throughout the simulation.
I know in one slide I can do two zoom regions back to back and it will pan - this is really nice - but when I go from one slide to the next, even if the zoom region stops at the end of one slide and another starts at the next slide, it doesn't pan.
So I created a pseudo-pan by selecting the same area as the previous slide for the zoom region for about 1/2 second and then panning to the new area. This works - but there's no way to make sure that the zoom region is in the exact space as the previous zoom region - I am using the gridlines ruler and guides but it's not precise enough.
has anyone run into this before?
it would be nice if it allowed us to resize - like you can with shapes and and reposition based on coordinates

Hi Lynn,
I thought that this thread may help you, as there is an example and a couple links to other threads with similar discussions.
The screen recordings don't act like screen shots - so this doesn't work for me :-(
Thanks for looking though...
Did you get an answer to this? i am doing something similar now and would love to figure it out...
Hi Terry!

Leslie,
I guess I wanted to refresh this thread because it is the exact same issue as what I am working on. I have a 60 second video that covers how to bookmark, and create a shortcut to an internal website. The Zoom Function is great when using one or two in a slide, but it seems kind of jarring when they are too close together to zoom all the way out to full screen and then back into another zoom within a few seconds. Has there been any successful attempts at panning from one Zoom to another?
Hi Terry,
Have you seen this article on how to create a zooming/panning effect?
