Motion Paths Not Hitting Their Marks

Sep 22, 2020

Hi, I am authoring a simple simulation.  I have created multiple animation paths.  The red dot indicates exactly where I want the cursor to land but in some cases it does not get there.

I've attached a few screen shots to assist.

Would anyone have an idea of what might be causing this?  It is causing me a lot of rework.

Thank you!

Hi Maribeth,

Thanks for sharing your published output! In viewing your link using Google Chrome, this is the result I get:

It looks like it's working as expected. Are you still running into issues on your end? You may want to try using another browser or updating the one you have. Here's what we support when using Review 360.

Good Morning,

Thank you for the response.

Screens 1.7 to 1.11 still have the cursor not hitting its mark. I am viewing in Chrome and cannot get Chrome to indicate if my browser is up to date.

I'm attaching the source file for review.  Can you please let me know what might be going on?

Thanks so much for the assistance!  I really appreciate it.

Hi Lauren,  Thanks for the reply.  When I look at the Review Link, the cursor that goes to the clock icon doesn't make it all the way but the motion path looks correct.

Here's is a link to that particular screen: https://360.articulate.com/review/content/2cdd321a-98a2-4266-ae0b-a4f198cc8fd4/review

Greetings, Maribeth!

Thank you for working closely with us! Adding to the test collection, I published your file to Review 360 and Web using Storyline 360 Update 44:

Similar to Ren and Lauren's experience, each hand cursor follows its motion path correctly in Chrome 85. However, I did notice that each cursor didn't complete the path.

To fix this, we'll need to update each Jump to next slide trigger to execute when the motion path animation ends. Here's an example:

I created this video demo on the changes and included a modified version of your file below.

Let me know if that works for you!

Hi Katie,  You are just wonderful!  That fixed the problem!  I so appreciate the explanation and the video. - very helpful!

You're my hero!  I have a number of similar demos to create and this will alleviate a lot of time on my part trying to figure out why the motion paths did not hit their marks!

Have a wonderful day !  And many, many thanks!
