Hi Everyone. I need a help to learn how can I make morph transition as it is in powerpoint in storyline (like making a curved page turn and zoom at the same time)?:) Thanks.
Yes, adding the morph animation would be amazing. Seem like a lot of people would use it. Will continue to check here and hopefully will launch soon. : D
It's fun how I keep getting email updates on the requests for this feature. I am involved because I asked for this feature. Then over time, I have thought more about it. There must be a reason why Articulate has not made this a priority. Perhaps it is the file size or the amount of development time. Either way, I have been thinking more about how adult learning theory applies to this. Although this would be a striking upgrade there would be no improvement in learning; the morph transition would be more like a bell or whistle designers could use to impress stakeholders, not a tactic to promote deep understanding or knowledge retention. I vote that we have more reinforcement activity options in Rise or better collaboration options for team members in Rise. :o)
Wise words, David! The reality is that the bells and whistles are often the striking difference between applications. As you mentioned, stakeholders, especially the decision makers, are key. The decision-makers will compare functionality between applications, looking for those features that are leading-edge. The users are pivotal in how to use those functions to differentiate themselves and the asset on behalf of the learners.
Morphing is just one more feature Articulate can add to the functionality of Storyline. As to whether or not it is a priority, look to the competition and the leading-edge programs.
Thanks for the response @BJ. (I recall being unable to tag on this forum but I still do it anyway.) In my opinion, Articulate doesn't have any competition. I am good with jobs that ask me to use Articulate; it is powerful, easy to design courses with, and has dependable outcomes. I am good.
When people ask me how I do it after a presentation, PPT Morph is usually the answer. It's more powerful than most realize, and integrating it into Storyline 360 would be amazing! In the meantime, I'll keep adding small screenshots to my modules for that extra wow factor!
I'm sad to see a lot of these animation styles from Powerpoint which have been requested for a long time have not made it to Storyline yet. Today I need to create these in powerpoint and then export my animation as a video and then import it into storyline. It makes the projects slower :(
Articulate, it's been nearly 5 years since this thread was opened. I'll be honest, I'm so over " We're still tracking this request, so I’ll include your voice. We’ll update this discussion if this feature makes it on our feature roadmap." ... When is this happening? Is there not enough community support for this?? Literally, how many users need to come out in support of it for it to hit the roadmap? Do you need corporate clients involved? This is a genuine question: What do we need to do to help get this on the features roadmap within the next 3 to 6 months? And with all respect, no more boiler plate generic answers. What do we need to do for Articulate to prioritize this?
Absolutely. this is a premium product and we are all paying users. The fact that it is a yearly subscription so that we must commit to a software product well in advance, while being strung along is not a great look. The least that the product team could do would be to let us know if this going to come as a feature, or not. And if so then some sort of timeline, so that we can decide on whether we wish to continue supporting the development of something that has been alluded to for 5 years, yet still has no conclusive answer of if it is happening or not.
Wow, 5 years and no update? I have to echo everyone here. This is one of the most powerful, fastest, and easiest features in PPT that immediately ups the production value. Is there an update as to whether it'll be part of Articulate in the near future?
I would also like to jump on this bandwagon, especially with a lot of the great creative ideas that developers are coming up with for PowerPoint Morph. I also love to use the merge shapes functions PP has.

Hi @Leslie,
Has the morph transition been added to Storyline yet? Just checking... I know this is an old post but I do find it very valuable.
Thanks!

Hi Diana, and thanks for reaching out!
Currently, I don't have an update on this feature request, but we’ll be sure to update this discussion if this makes it on our feature roadmap.

Adding my vote to this - I'm desperate for a Morph transition! Using the video workaround is just not viable for my projects and workflow. PLEASE!

We need morph please!

Chiming in to ask that the Morph transition is brought in to Storyline. Would be so helpful.
Adding my +1! I'd love to be able to recreate my slick PPT morph transitions in Storyline.

This would be a great addition. Any updates? I see the original post was from 2019.
https://articulate.com/support/article/Articulate-360-Feature-Roadmap This is the product roadmap link (I did a search for Morph but didn't see it listed).
Nicely done. Thanks for sharing, Jean!

Also me just chiming in to say that this is long overdue! Really hope this moves up on the priority list sooner than later.
I saw the PPT version of morphing in a YouTube Storyline how-to video (not Articulate's) and would love to see it as an option in SL360.
storyline courses are published to html, how do you export PPT with morhing to html?
as far as i know, office 2003 was the last version that could do ths
