Is there a way to copy the Glossary Tab and Resource Tab from one project to another? This would save time instead of having to recreate the content of each.
A Glossary and Resource import/export feature certainly would save time! Thanks for sharing the idea. While there isn't a way to do that in Storyline currently, I'll pass along your feature idea to our team!
You could clear out the slides in your existing project and save it as a blank template. When you create a new project using that template, the resources and glossary along with the other player settings, master slide layouts and themes come along.
That's a good idea, Stephanie. However our courses right now are over 200 slides and 50+ scenes (some scenes are just divider slides -- there's a bit of complexity in the structure of the course because we are dealing with systems, subsystems, and secondary subsystems in the same course) and are about various systems in the new parking garage.
Next month we start on the training for the new hospital being built which is vastly more complex, the courses could easily exceed 1,000 slides, so your idea may be a bit tedious. Still, a good idea and very helpful. Thank you!
In addition to being able to export the Glossary contents for use in another project, I would like to be able to switch from Classic player to Modern (and vice versa) without losing the contents of my existing Glossary. I recently updated from Storyline 2 to Storyline 360 and am very frustrated to have to recreate it when I updated to the Modern player. And while we're discussing the Glossary, another feature is needed: the ability to include the Glossary and the Resource list in the Publish to Word function.
Thanks for chiming in with those feature requests! I'll be sure they get into the right hands.
You definitely should not lose contents of the Glossary when updating a Storyline 2 file to Storyline 360. Can you tell me more about what happened? Was your Glossary erased completely?
Today we released an exciting new feature for Storyline 360: glossary import and export! You'll find this feature in Storyline 360, build 3.30.19518.0. You can see more details on how to use it in this post.
To install, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer and click the Update button for Storyline. Details here.
