Altering Mode on Screen recorings
Jul 09, 2014

Hi all,
I'm making some tutorials using the "Record Screen"-function to record and create simulations in external software/systems. In many cases I would like to have both a view-mode recording and a try-mode recording of the same transaction. That is, the student first watches a video and then gets to try the steps him/herself. Is there anyway I can use the same recording and just alter the mode of the slides? Right now I have to do two recordings for each step, which is kind of time consuming.
Thanks,
Lisa

Hi Lisa,
Yes, you CAN use the same recording. This thread has some detailed information. It feels to me like it's kind of hidden away.
Briefly:
Please shout out with any questions
Super easy! Thank you Rebecca!
Are there any examples out there in which Storyline is used to create simulations?
Hi Natalie,
I've seen a lot of examples - is there something specific you're looking for? You may want to investigate our Examples page and also look in the Building Better Courses forums as that is where folks share more how to/design ideas.
If there is something specific you're looking to see, you could also ask in the BBC forums and see what folks are able to share.
Thanks for posting this Rebecca! We just had a new project come in at my job and it required that we have both a watch-it version and a try-it version. This was exactly what I was hoping to find out. =)
Glad that this thread was able to assist you as well Daniel. This information is listed in our tutorial as well. Just wanted to share with you or anyone else that may run across this thread.
is there a way to do this using the EDITED video- the one with all the "fat" trimmed of extra and useless slides so that you dont have to go back and do it again?
Hi, Lauren.
Thank you for reaching out!
While not a current feature of Storyline, we have a request logged for the ability to convert edited screen recording modes to other modes, and it's linked to this discussion. We'll come back to update you when we have news to share.
Hi Maria,
Any update on this feature? This is currently a huge issue for my team
Hi Brooke,
I appreciate you taking the time to share what you’d like to see in Storyline 360! Currently, I don't have an update on this request, so I’ll go ahead and include your voice. We’ll update this discussion if this feature makes it on our feature roadmap.
