Animation in Storyline through the Morph Transition
Nov 12, 2018
Some time ago, PowerPoint came out with a transition called Morph that literally morphs shapes, colors, strokes, graphics, etc. from one slide to the next. In other words, if you build a design on one slide, duplicate the slide, and make changes to the shapes on the second slide, the Morph transition will smoothly deform the shapes from the first slide to the next.
This transition is POWERFUL for animation. I feel that small animations of this kind are especially important for a product like Storyline. In a sense, the ability to build animations is one of the key features that I feel is missing from Storyline. If Articulate would consider adding the Morph transition to Storyline, it would allow users to animate the graphics on the screen with triggers, and I believe that would open up new worlds of possibility with Storyline.
Is this something you all would consider adding to Storyline?

Hi Kaitlyn!
Thanks for checking in on this!
I don't have any updates to share at this time as our development team has been tracking other features. You're in the right place for updates and we'll be sure to notify you as soon as we have news to share!
If you'd like to stay up to date, you can bookmark our Feature Roadmap.
This post ws started 6 years ago! What is the progress on the morph transition please? It would be a game changer for animation an is much needed, thank you.
Yes it would be a welcome addition.
I guess this is just one more really useful, well supported and much needed feature request that Articulate have ignored for many years and will ignore for many years to come...
Just like the beyond absurd fact that you still can't adjust tabs in a text frame.
Come on Articulate! These are basic requests. You should be paying more attention to your customers!
+1 for me.
11 pages of comments requesting this feature should say something about the need. I have been using Articulate since it was first on the market and I love it. The only thing that really frustrates me is that the animations dont have easing and having a morph feature would be a game changer. Even Canva has a morph feature now called magic move. The animation features in social media apps are far surpassing Articulate’s animation capabilities. Its getting hard to explain to clients why the animations in Storyline projects look primitive in comparison. Please up your game with better animation features.
