I dont know if this problem was raised before and if it was answered. I have a doubt while using the storyline. I am more fascinated by the zoom region option in it. But even if I extend the zoom time to whatever duration, it seems zooming in the same pace only. can we make the zooming speed slower. Zoom to an object very slowly. That's what I need.
Hi there, Shawna! Were you able to find how to change the zoom transition speed? Right click on your zoom region, and select the Zoom Transition Speed options:
If that didn't help enough, feel free to send us a feature request for exactly how you'd like to control your zooming!
I'm also using the zoom feature for a project but I want it to zoom in much slower than the "very slow" option. It would be great to be able to give it timing feature of how long the zoom should last/control the speed.
Another request here - this seems to have been on the cards for over 5 years. We have some professionally designed powerpoints where the background grows very slowly and it is really effective - giving a slide just a hint of movement. Of course, i'd like the same effect in my courses!
For untold reasons you still cannot make a Grow animation from a set scale % or control the speed of the Zoom Region with other than a handfuld of fixed settings that are just variations of Too Damn Fast. Instant, Speed of Light, Ludricrous Speed, Ridiculously Fast, Super Fast, and Very Fast.
How I wish I could get that kind of image control, I have to rely on After Effects for this. Why is it that I cannot define "Zoom" animation to start at scale25% and end at scale 100%? OR just give me a numerical value I can type into the Zoom Region (in seconds).
Unfortunately, Articulate Storyline grows more and more stale as a development tool. No significant developments that makes it a better program to create courses in.

Right click the zoom region on the slide and choose transition speed, it would be nice to have more granular control but this will slow it down
Hi Phil,
Oh..Thank you very much..
I had actually tried right click on the time line area, but never tried in the slide itself. it seems very interesting. Thank You Phil
Yes, thanks Phil. Very helpful. I'm enjoying using zoom as well.
Glad this thread helped you out Stacy!
Excellent! Thanks for the help Phil! Like Tom, I was looking for the menu option in the timeline.

I've been looking for this feature forever. Thank you!!

Hi I'm not seeing this option...
On the slide not the timeline, should be there
I agree with you.
However, it's not there (as shown in the attachment.)
Perhaps this is a 360 bug??? Anyone else having the same issue?
Ahhh, it works when you are NOT on the timeline.

Hi Sarah,
Thanks for reaching out and sharing how you would like to use the zoom in your project.
I've submitted a feature request on your behalf for our team to take a look.
I wanted to share some information about how we manage these feature requests as that may be helpful.

Hello there, can you make the zoom region more of a rectangle than a square? I want the region to be longer than wider.
+1 from me for a highly configurable zoom control feature!
Like @Adam Bayliss, I want a very slow, gentle zoom that adds subtle movement. Not even the 'very slow' zoom option in SL360 gets close to it!
I can't help feeling Articulate is falling behind other software when it comes to animations and transitions!
