Highlighting text of the transcript in sysnc with the voice over.

Jun 18, 2022

I was wondering if there is an option or way to highlight text of the transcript as per the VO. The one which shows on Udemy courses. 

I have inserted a marker for the transcript and have pasted the VO but I would like the text to be highlighted in sync with the VO.

Hello, DCDM Tech Mahindra!

There isn't a feature in Storyline 360 that highlights transcript text phrases as they're spoken. We're tracking requests for this option, though, so I'll surface your post to my team! (Here's how we manage feature ideas.)

In the meantime, check out this community approach:

  • Insert a media file and a text box, add a Fade animation with the By paragraph effect option to the text box, then align the timing accordingly. (Learn more about animation effect options.)

I know it's a bit much, especially with a lot of text, but let me know if you have any questions. I'm happy to help!
