Hi Camille! Are you trying to convert Storyline slides into PowerPoint slides? While Storyline 360 doesn't have a feature like that, if you can tell me more about what you're trying to achieve, there might be another way to go about it!
As Alyssa mentioned we don't have a feature in Storyline to convert it to a Powerpoint.
There are a few other options that may work for presentation needs such as:
Publish to Web, and set each slide to advance when the presenter clicks "Next"
Publish to Video (Storyline 360 only) and that way the presenter could play/pause the video as they take learners through it.
Publish to Word, you could share that document with learners to have as a physical or electronic handout. Once you've published to Word, you can also easily save/print to PDF.
Hope that helps, and we'll keep you posted if the import of Storyline to Powerpoint becomes a feature.
We need to produce elearning (in SL) but then also have courses in Powerpoint as well so it is an editable document for clients who want to use it as classroom training. So unfortunately, those options don't work for us.
Hi David. There isn't a publish to PowerPoint option in Storyline, but you do have some options:
Publish for offline viewing - instructors can launch the course and walk a class through its content without going to a learning management system or website.
Tom offers a way to use Storyline content in PowerPoint presentations.
Excellent, thank you. Toms feature is really good help (as always as this guy is a genius!).
Perhaps Tom would like to include and demo this in his next series of workshops (eg. London in November). There are so many who need to do this. We produce a Storyline course and then the client asks if they can deliver this as face to face training using PowerPoint.
With best wishes

For me - I've created a storyline template that people can use which is working great
But for the non developers i want to be able to give them the template in powerpoint form so that can can create their scripts straight and populate with their info so that they get an idea of what the elearn will look like and the devleoper can easily create in storyline
I have a similar business challenge as Daniel. We are currently looking at the potential of creating technical competency assessments in Storyline. However, the SOP knowledge management (i.e. Standard Operating Procedures) are within Powerpoint (over 1000 SOPs). There are a number of SMEs across 2 countries and multiple functions that update the knowledge management as required. I need them to be able to edit the assessments' copy/script as and when information changes.
Having the ability to convert a Storyline file to PowerPoint would allow for the copy-editing / development process to be more efficient, considering the number of assessments.
I am running into the same issue... I want to use Storyline but I need to be able to export to power point to print presentations and allow for others to edit who are not savvy in Storyline...
PLEASE DO THIS UPDATE, it's been two years of people asking for it!
The perfect situation would be a simple export to PPT option, forgoing the triggers, animations and links, etc capabilities (losing those would be okay) - and for layers, simply just give the option to export each layer as an additional slide, or export only the base layers, etc.
Just to be able to export editable slide back and forth from Storyline to PPT (both ways) would be incredible.
For teams like the one I'm one, we often have the need to create facilitator guided and self guided learning modules - both with similar content. Often there are updates, or multiple people working on them on both platforms.
I can't begin to imagine how much time we would save if we could actually work cross platform (both ways) with PPT and Storyline.
I agree with Justin. Our team could really use this feature as well, fully accepting that anything interactive will just come through not working. Please consider this as a feature request, thanks!
I'm new to the platform and this is being asked of me at my organization as well. If this could be implemented it would be amazing so add me to the feature request wagon.
We don't get asked to do this as often as some in this discussion thread however we do get asked for this from time to time. If there has been an update to allow for this I would appreciate learning how. Thanks!

Hi Jane! There is not a way to convert/export Storyline to Powerpoint.
You could utilize screenshots/images or perhaps a web object if you have Presenter.
Is there any way to do this with Storyline 360?

I'm trying to do this as well. My goal is to take my elearning Storyline
course and make it into a powerpoint presentation so it can be used by an instructor in a classroom.
What's the verdict? I would like to convert a file to powerpoint as well.

Just thought but would it work to create it in PowerPoint first and them import it in to SL360?
Yes. But we presently have a lot of SL courses are finished and now have to make powerpoint instructor-led courses from those.
Hi Tracy,
Importing from Powerpoint into Storyline can be done, follow the steps here.
The reverse is not available right now, due to the interactive nature of Storyline.
We'll let folks know if that changes!
Um, yes Ashley, that is what I was suggesting they do. Thanks!!
👍
I wasn't sure if you were asking or suggesting, so figured it was worth sharing the link.
Has there been a way round yet to convert Storyline 360 project into PowerPoint for instructor-led training?

I hope that helps for now!

Hi Has this changed because I am in the same situation. The client wants the eLearning and also the editable ppt slides.

Hi All! Like everyone else on this thread, I too, would appreciate the option to export to a PPT document :)
