Hey everyone - this isn't a new feature, but one that brings me so much joy! Back in the day reordering scenes in Storyline was a bit more of a production, now with the Index functionality, it's super easy! Check out a quick screencast below:
Oooohhh! Thanks for the tip and thanks Articulate for the update - this used to be so involved and a bit scary for me as I was always worried I would lose a whole scene.
I'd read it had been updated, but I hadn't taken the time to explore it at all. Thanks, Ashley, for this video! It is so easy and quick! A very, very helpful hero moment!
It's always great to have resources available that can help us learn and improve. I remember when I was starting out in my career, it took me a while to figure out how to reorder scenes too. So, I understand how valuable it is to have a guide to follow. Thanks for sharing your video and for helping the newbies!
Just what I was looking for! Thank you, Ashley š
I was able to re-order the scenes, but the final published version does not reflect this change. Is there a fix to this issue or should I contact Support?
Hey Jessy! Great question! The scenes in Story View might not show up in the same order when you publish them. Triggers control that, so be sure to check the triggers panel to ensure those are set to how you'd like. Also, here are a few articles on how renumbering scenes work in case you want to have a look.
Those reference articles are very useful, but it is possible that Iām doing something wrong because nothing has worked so far.
I found a different solution eventually - I created a new Storyline project and imported the slides/scenes in the sequence I wanted. It worked and it is not too tedious because you can import whole scenes at a time. I just had to tidy up some of the intra-scene triggers after importing, and that was all š
Hey Jessy! I'm glad you found a solution! That's a smart idea!

Let me know if that doesn't solve it or if you have more questions.
Thank you Sarah!

Oh dear, that is my organization's email settings stubbornly including the email signature even though I deleted it manually! Thank you, Sarah
I just discovered this today. And I share your sentiment that I no longer have to cut and paste scenes anymore.
This is not consistent does not work all the time I can capture the erro if you wish just ask
oww fantastic! Tksss
It doesn't work for me. I have followed the directions exactly as they appear but my scenes do not re-order. Please help!
@Jim 2 things:
1. Are you in Story View?
2. You have the latest SL 360 update?
Cheers,
David
