Motion paths are not listed in trigger list

Aug 14, 2023

I am currently working with motion paths in Storyline 360 on a drag&drop quiz and I am experiencing some weird behavior:

Once I have a motion path added to an object on a layer, the motion path can not be adressed with a trigger (even after saving the file first). It just doesn't show up in the list of available motion paths on the specific layer. This happens quite often and forces me to delete the motion path I already set up and define a new one. Sometimes the new one is listed, sometimes not. 

This is pretty time consuming and I am still hoping that I have simply overseen some configuration.

Hello Luka, 

Sorry to hear that you ran into this behavior.

This is very unusual indeed. I tried to replicate the behavior on my end but I didn't have any issues with assigning triggers to existing motion paths. 

As a troubleshooting step, please try doing a repair of your Storyline 360 installation to see if this helps. If the issue persists, would you be willing to share a copy of your project file here or in private by opening a support case so we can check for anything unusual that may be causing the behavior? We'll delete it when we're done testing!

Hi Shannon, 

Happy to help!

We couldn't replicate this behavior on our end so we'll need to take a look at your project file in order to get a better understanding of what's happening. Would you be willing to share a copy of your project file here or in private by opening a support case for testing? We'll share feedback with you as soon as we're done troubleshooting.
