They do normally add features, the first Storyline update added a previous button trigger and translation. I would hope for new features in the next update, but I would also like things such as text editing to be properly fixed.
I would love the next update to have improved animations, better text editing and bug fixes, just being realistic it will only be a point update and most other products do not add new features (although Articulates normally do)
I think Articulate does a great job of listening to the user-base about feature requests but just because you make a request does not mean it will make it into the product. It would be impossible to add everything and in some cases what one person requests might actually conflict with what somebody else wants. For example, there was some discussion a while back about adding autosave to the application. This became a big discussion and I think we were split about 50-50 on this feature.
I am not exactly sure how they decide but I would assume some of it has to do with the number of similar requests they get, some of it has to do with how hard it will be to implement and some of it has to do with how it fits in with their overall product vision.
Hey Jesse, I think they sometimes but features in point releases - they added the export for navigation feature and the ability to add a trigger to the prev button in the last point release.
Hi - I'd like to put in a request to allow more effective work with 2 screens - that is being able to position the diffferent elements outside of the main window. Adobe Captivate allows this, and its very effecivive to be able to put the list of timeline objects on a screen (which is often quite long) on a screen of its own instead of just below the main window.
I work with duel and sometimes triple displays as well, I think adding some additional functionality for this would be great.

I think most feature requests will be for version 2. not sure if there is a new version soon, I am sure there will be some new feautures
I am hoping for better text editing.
But I would expect the killer features to be kept for version 2 not point increments
i gotcha, so their updates don't include anything more than buggy patches.

Cool, thanks for the info.
