Limit on Number of Layers

I had 120 layers that worked on a slide, increased to 135 and it took 20 minutes to load the slide

I did have 8000 triggers as well on that slide though

Wow, that's a whole lot going on. Sounds like I'll be OK with 30-35 then. (it will be running as an exe, so no worries on web-based load time)

Thanks Phil.

I've worked with quite a few layers but don't believe there's a logical limit (within reason) to the creation of layers. I just created a quick 1000 layers to test the smoothness of publish. Seemed to create and publish fine. I think you'll run into a sanity / management limit before you run into a technical limit, tbh.

The EXE still loads the Web-based content within a container that prevents security (activeX and Flash) stoppers when running locally. It's the same publish you'd get with HTML / Flash output, just adds a few extra files.

Triggers may have been the limit, I could not save a t 140 layers and 8000 triggers.  which version of Storyline did you just test on Steve?

Hi Phil, Steve,

I'm about to create a virtual tour of a campus (see attachment).

I'm thinking 100ish layers and 20 or so hotspot on each layer.

If I assume Update3: 1305.2013 -  Can you see any grief with SL?

BTW: I assume I will have sanity / management  issues

Cheers

Yes sanity management may be the issue, i cannot see any problem as the updates have improved the capacity of SL, I haven't hit a limit yet.

It is Phil's personal objective to run the entire Wikipedia site off one slide
