Copying Glossary terms and Resources from one file to another

Apr 02, 2020

Does anyone know how to copy Glossary terms and Resources from one file to another without having to re create from scratch? I have 7 courses using the same terms and resources and unfortunately received them at the end of developing all 7 courses.

If you use Storyline 360, the Glossary includes buttons for exporting and importing that content.

Unfortunately, earlier versions don't include that function.

And, alas, there is no way to export/import the player Resources. However, here's an alternative:

  • Put all the resources on a slide. (I suggest you put this slide in a separate scene.)
  • Add an item to the player that lightboxes that slide.
    • You can still call it Resources; Storyline doesn't care if you add a player item with the same name as a default item.
    • This method would allow you to import the Resources slide from one course to another. Or, even better, just copy and paste the info from one course to another (to avoid creating a duplicate set of Master Layouts).
