Moving PPT Animations actions to SL 3

Oct 20, 2020

Good Day;

I have now come across a VERY frustrating experience. I am required to build my storyboards in PPT for easy external review (we do not have nor are we looking at RISE due to Corporate IT restrictions). When I go to use any asset from PPT to Articulate, it brings it over as a static image.

So, if a slide has 4 elements that appear in consecutive order (think text pop-out animation), I cannot bring them over and expect them to work. I have to rebuild the entire slide from scratch.

This also applies to any video that is in the PPT. I have to save it as a video out of PPT then bring it in to SL3.

Am I missing something?

Thank you.

Often grouping objects or suing smart art will bring them into Storyline as images. Not all animations are supported inside of PPT there are no emphasis animations. On click, animations are translated to 5-second delay between the next animation.

If you have to use PPT then it would be better to simplify everything, personally, I would wireframe in PPt but then rebuild entirely in Storyline
