Boken links to attached resources
Jun 07, 2016

Hi. I'm newer to Storyline, and just learned (the hard way) that moving a .story file to a different folder breaks the URL links to attached resources. URL links are absolute vs relative. Ok. I understand. The problem is, when learning the software and reading the online tutorials, I didn't even think about that. Would it be possible to add a written "tip" or "reminder" about this issue in the "Storyline 1: Attaching Resources to the Player" knowledgebase? You can save others some time and embarrassment - especially with customers that are new to elearning and already hesitant about its benefits. Thank you.
