I have a need to vary the orientation of slides in a Storyline 2 story. The slide dimensions are exactly the same but some will be horizontal and others vertical. I've tried to create a second Master but I haven't been successful in getting the orientation to change. Any help is appreciated!
Within Storyline the slide size (story size) is set for an entire course - and there wouldn't be a way to adjust the orientation of slides from portrait to landscape or vice a versa.
Could you share a bit more about how you're looking to use these two orientations and then we can offer some other ideas?
I am also looking to do this. Add one slide in landscape and the others all portrait. I have one slide that I am looking to make lightbox and I want it to appear landscape. Is this possible in Storyline 2?
I would also like to have one or two pages within a storyline project in portrait mode. I see that this has been brought up several times - please could it be set as an option?
Thanks for contacting us to share that this is a feature you would like to see.
Can I have one or two pages within a storyline project in portrait mode while the others are in landscape mode?
As Ashley explained, currently the Story Size is for the entire course. I am not aware of any plans to change this functionality, but I have submitted the feature request on your behalf.
Was this feature ever reviewed again for inclusion? Or does it remain somewhere in the stack of "ideas we may consider" and thus not yet slated for building out to reality? I'm currently doing a project where the ability have both portrait and landscape modes (replicating a tablet app) would absolutely be a lifesaver.
Thank you for reaching out! While I don't have any news to share on this feature request, I wanted to share the article below that explains a little more about our process:

Hi Yvonne,
There isn't an option in Storyline 2 to adjust the story size for individual slides or scenes - it's a setting that is applied to the entire course.

Thanks Maria - not the answer I wanted to hear, but helpful nonetheless. Have a great day!
