Moving Objects to defined position on slide independent of the starting position Aug 09, 2021 By Martin Volckart I would like to move objects to a defined absolute position on the screen, independent of the starting position. Does anyone have any ideas? Is such a feature being planned?

Can you expand on what you're trying to achieve, or possibly share a .story file with your ideas? If I understand your request correctly, then it's something that you can already do in Storyline. Take a look at the example below: The object moves through a Line Motion Path (with relative starting point) every time the user presses the left arrow key: There is a second Line Motion Path that starts and end at the same position, which is activated by the Clear button: Regardless of where the object is, it will move it back to the original position when the button is pressed. Is this similar to what you're looking to do?
