Apply Feedback master to multiple slides at once

The simplest solution is to modify the current feedback master, that way it is automatically applied.

Hi Phil,

thanks for your response. I did that but unfortunately it is not automatically applied. As with normal slide masters, you can have multiple feedback-masters being "alive" in your content (each one being 'in use' for some slides). Now that I want to consolidate the feedback master to only use one template, I am looking for a way to do that. 

Kind regards,
Marcus

OK, I try to only keep one slide master and  one feedback master in each course so i can apply new themes easily. Sound like you have multiple themes, you will need to do it on a slider layer basis which is laborious.

Phil any update to this?

Hi Steve,

This conversation is a bit dated and I wanted to start a new dialog with you to understand what you may be having difficulty with and what update you are asking about from Phil.

I'd love to be able to help you out :)

If you are following up on the initial question of applying a feedback master to multiple layers at a time, there has not been an update to that functionality.

Hello, I am also having a struggle with this thing at this moment. So I have to update few hundreds of courses, that regards changing the default correct/incorrect slide of each quiz slide. I have opened Feedback Master, imported the new correct/incorrect slides into it, and deleted the old feedback slides. Tho, this does not update the slides with the new desired correct/incorrect slides. I have to go to each slide, and from Layer tab to replace the wastes of default feedback with the new desired feedback style. 
Pretty bad to do all this manually on about 7500 quiz slides. 

Hi Adan,

Yes, once you set up your new feedback masters you'll need to apply them to the individual feedback layers and their slides. If you set those up before creating questions they'd be applied as a part of the question creation. 

I'm trying to create a handful of feedback masters to use across quizzes across multiple projects at a future date. I must be doing something wrong because Preserve doesn't actually preserve the feedback master when I try to apply it a new project.

How do you create a feedback master from scratch and have it apply to new projects? All the tutorials I've seen don't use the tweaked feedback master outside of the project it was created in. Thanks for any help!

Hi Heather! Preserving the feedback master will save it in the current file, but it won't be available in new files. 

Instead, if you want to reuse a custom feedback master in new files, try saving that Storyline file as a template. Then, when you start a new file, you can open the template and begin from there.

Since feedback is a layer in a quiz question slide, would I take quiz question slides, build in feedback layers in Feedback Master view, and then save those as templates? 

So what does Preserve do then?

Hi Heather!

You would actually save the entire Storyline file as a template (not individual slides). Use the Save as type drop-down to choose Storyline Template (.storytemplate).

Then, when you're ready to use the template, double-click the .storytemplate file. It’ll automatically launch in Storyline.

A huge issue is that the Modern Feedback-master isn't working properly. I've changed the feedback-master to reflect how I want it to look, but back at the slide-layers it's broken. Bugs I've encountered is text misalignment and button-changes. I have to manually fix this in the slide-layers, which mean I have to change this on every....single....slide since copy-pasting feedback-layers to other quiz-slides breaks the functionality.

Tested in two different story-files, same kind of issues.

Hi, Tommy.

Thank you for reaching out! I'm sorry you're encountering unexpected behavior when using the Feedback Masters. 

Can you share a sample .story file or a screen recording of what you're experiencing so we can investigate what's happening? If you prefer to send it to our support team privately, you can use this link to open a case.

Will do when I get the time, thank you. :)

Having similar problems with Feedback master. I have a large number of quizzes and I'm coming to the end where I need to make the feedback box bigger because it's very small and doesn't allow for much feedback without making the text bigger.

So I made a new feedback master and made it look the way I wanted it. Then found out I can't magically apply it to all the feedback slides in one click... Not efficient at all.

So then I decided to edit the original "Modern" feedback master. But it doesn't automatically apply to all the feedback slides. Not efficient at all. Coming across lots of bugs and frustrations with Storyline... Not happy at all.

Same here. Big annoying problem, actually. It's a complete nightmare.

Yeah. I finally got around my problems there but it wasn't easy.

I do see that Feedback master is getting an update, hopefully sooner rather than later.

Yes this is an issue for me as well. You can easily change several question's master slide by Shift-selecting the slides, then right clicking, and then Apply Layout. However, it doesn't work when you try to do that for the feedback layers. I am manually applying it slide by slide :( 

Hi everyone!

I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 74, we've included important fixes and new features.

One of the enhanced features we've included is: 

• Quickly apply a feedback master to multiple question slides simultaneously.

Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.

Please let me know if you have questions!

Hello,

I am looking to use this feature in the simulation sets.  I can't access Question - Design on any of the try mode slides.  Can you help me out? 

Hello Doris, 

Happy to help!

The 'Question - Design' tab isn't available for try mode slides because these slides aren't graded. You'll need to re-insert the screen recording as test mode slides to access this tab. You can learn about the different modes for set-by-step slides by checking out this article: 

• Storyline Step-By-Step Slides: View, Try and Test Mode

Let me know if you need anything else!

I also want to do this on recorded simulations in the TRY MODE.  Not finding the option to apply to multiple slides on these slides because they are not question slides. Yet they still use feedback to indicate if the user selected the correct next step or not.  Is there a way to apply new feedback master to multiple slides here?

What about if I'm using Storyline 3, not 360? I updated the Feedback Masters (Correct and Incorrect for text box and button colors) and when I hover over them they say used by 137 slides, but the changes I made do not apply to all slides in the lesson when I click "Close Master View". The change only applies to 1 slide, not all of them. 

Hello Kristina, 

Happy to chime in here. Unfortunately, the feature that Kelly shared isn't available for Storyline 3. You'll need access to Storyline 360 to access the feature that quickly applies a feedback master to multiple question slides simultaneously.

omg, thank you for this!!! Worked just fine, and saved me a ton of time.
