Hi everyone,
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 86, we’ve included important fixes and new features.
Two of the new features we’ve included:
- Position captions at the top or bottom of the slide to ensure closed caption visibility and prevent the obstruction of critical course content.
- Customize the foreground and background colors of closed captions to complement your course design and maintain contrast accessibility
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 any questions.

Hey Tim,
Thanks for sharing your wish list :) I added this conversation to the reports we already had and filed new ones on your behalf for ones that we didn't.
As for the menu sizing, did you try adjusting the Player Font Size under Colors & Effects in the Player Properties window?
Hi Leslie,
Thanks for your response - you are always so quick and constructive when replying on the Forum. The community is one of this product's greatest assets.
Closed-caption text size control - yes, this is what I have been doing in the Player. It's a good job I don't use the default SL3 menu or navigation buttons because although the font can be different, they all get bigger too! Caption text really ought to have its own controls for text size, alignment, colour and background colour.
Best regards, Tim

Nice list Tim. Have great Christmas!
Thanks for clarifying, Tim :) Very helpful!
Hi Tim,
I am happy to share that a new prezzie is here for you to open!
We just launched the newest version of Storyline 360 (Build 3.38.21779.0) this morning, which brings the Jump to Time Trigger! This feature allows you to create unique interactions by using triggers that jump to different times or cue points on the timeline. For more details on this, please check out this knowledge base article!
The next step is to update Storyline 360 by heading to your Articulate 360 desktop app and clicking "Update" next to Storyline 360.
As always, we are happy to answer any questions you have by posting in this discussion, or you can contact our Support Engineers directly.
Thank you Vincent, that's very good news for SL360 users ...
It is over seven years since I first requested this functionality, through the first SL, SL2 and SL3.
Please don't now tell me it is only going to be offered on Storyline 360?
I have SL3. I don't need or want to pay for SL360.
Hi Tim,
I appreciate that this is a crucial feature for you, and you're right that folks have mentioned needing a jump to timeline trigger for some time, but at this moment we're not planning any new feature updates for Storyline 3.
We'll be sure to keep you and other Storyline 3 users updated if anything changes around that!
Just now found this discussion, but this is for those who are waiting for:
While I am on 'things moving around' on screen, a really special gift would be to let me directly place an object at a specific X and Y location. You know, an initial location when the object appears and then a Trigger to send it somewhere else.
Click on a color name to send the light bulb to that location (a specific X and Y location.) Unfortunately, it only works for predetermined locations. We're going to have to wait for the elves to fix it so we can use variables to send it to changing locations.
In SL2, so it is available to all.
