Importing Powerpoint shapes into Storyline Shapes Menu

Jul 16, 2012

Greetings colleagues

Have spent a few hours looking around the web to see if I could learn how to import PowerPoint shapes into the Storyline selection menu but come up empty-handed.

Is there a way to do this?

I have successfully important a slide with shapes into a current project - interestingly, some shapes seem to be recognised as shapes in Articulate after import, while others (e.g. a curved right arrow) register as 'pictures'. 

Any insights would be welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Grant,

I do not believe that it's possible to import them into the menu in the way you want. You can of course create what you need in PowerPoint, then save/import as an image into Storyline.

Storyline does not emulate PowerPoint in functionality 100%, however, I can understand that some more of the standard shapes could be useful.
