Icons breaking into smaller parts when selecting

Hi Lu,

If you're inserting icons from Content Library, a lot of them are made up of other individual objects. If you're looking to adjust pieces within a state, perhaps using Format painter across all the pieces would help? 

Hi Lu and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)

That certainly does sound frustrating and I remember having this happen once to me, but I cannot remember what the image was.

At any rate, how about a right-click to save the image as a picture? Then you shouldn't run into that anymore.

Let me know if that helps or if we need to take a deeper look at your .story file.

I'm not entirely sure why those grouped icons act that way.

You have 2 options that I know of... One is to set your icon up at the exact size you wish to use it (or larger) and then save it out as .png file and import it back in.

I managed to set an object with multiple pieces exactly like yours to be just "curves" in an illustration program and then exported it as a .wmf file. Bringing it back into Storyline allowed for editing the entire group at one time vs the individual pieces that you commented one.

I would interested if anyone else chimes in on this.

The simple solution with just using Storyline tools is to export as an image and then import it back to your slide. Otherwise - you have to jump between each piece to edit the states, which is no fun.
