I just created a scrolling filmstrip based on this really note Screenr by Stephanie Harnett. She has her filmstrip set up vertically, which is the way the scrolling panel works.
What if I wanted a horizontal filmstrip. I thought I'd be able to flip it vertical, but rotation options are dimmed. Am I missing something? It would be really neat to be able to scroll horizontally.
I'll put in a request now. Do you think you should ask again?
I put together a quick idea using the vertical scrolling panel - figured I'd upload it just for the sake of sharing. But the last slide, which you'd get to by clicking in the menu, is the original way I'd thought about presenting this horizontally when I saw Stephanie's Screenr.
I am new to Storyline and have a large image of a processflow. For this kind of images it might be useful to have vertical and horizontal scrolling as well. I can create a slide layer with the scroll object on it and it looks like a kind of magnifying thing in that way.
So that's why I was searching for a horizontal scrollbar and found out it's a feature request.
I can also imagin that a large horizontal image (for example a 360 degrees view would be nice in a horizontal scroll.
I don't know that I've seen feature requests for this, and generally if there is a workaround like Geert shared, I don't know that community members share their thoughts then in the form of a feature request. I'd encourage you to share your thoughts here with our product development team.

Hi Rebecca,
Feature request time! No horizontal scrolling panel :-( I remember asking about this back in the beta.
Thanks for sharing Stephanie's Screenr - I hadn't seen her latest great idea!

Hi All,
There is a way of circumventing the absence of the rotate function on a panel.
Draw a box around it, group the box and the panel and rotate the group. It works like a charm...
See this link

Having a horizontal scroll panel would be a great feature to work around some limitations for users who view on an iPad.
How is this not a feature yet !

Hey everyone, here's a video I posted a few weeks ago that shows how to do create a horizontal scrolling panel in Storyline.
Hi Guys,
Can I use horizontal and vertical scroll at the same time?
Please help:(
