Intermittent trouble adding images to scrollbar

Dec 14, 2016

Hi, I was hoping someone could save me a bit of time here. I'm working on a project in Storyline 2 with extensive scrollbars, and most of the time I have no trouble adding an image to the slide, clicking and dragging the image so that the cursor is over the scrollbar and adding the image to the scrollbar dropdown in the Timeline. Sometimes, however, clicking and dragging the image to the scrollbar does not add the image to the scrollbar dropdown. It's almost as if I'm not dropping the image on the scrollbar's "hotspot" in the slide, so to speak.

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated; it gets tiresome clicking and dragging over and over again in hopes that it'll eventually work! Thank you!

One thing that I notice that's helps when getting images and text into a scrolling Panel is to start with the panel smaller than the text or image you want to put in it. If you do it the other way around it seems it doesn't always work.

But at the same time I have had mixed results as well. But if it gives me trouble I usually delete the scrolling panel and add a new one. Then it seems to work majority of the time.
