Need to Customize the colour of closed captions (including CC background colour) and their position in the slides

Hello Nitesh!

From what I've read, there isn't a way to alter the color of the closed captions or the positioning. The standard is that it will appear along the bottom of the slide. With that said there are ways to alter the font size and style easily. 

I know you said you found some articles on how to do this using JavaScript. I included some links below of the articles I have found (though you may have already seen these).

Good luck on your course!

Hey there, Nitesh!

Looks like Taylor covered your options pretty well here 😊

Customization options for Closed Captions is a feature request we're tracking, so I'll share your thoughts in our report and relay any new developments. 

I'm no JavaScript expert, but I'm hopeful some of our other members will chime in with ideas!

Hi Taylor,

Yes, I have gone through these attached articles earlier but just thinking If I could find anything handy it would be really helpful for me.

Although Thanks for your response, Taylor...

Hi Becca,

Yes, absolutely Taylor really confirmed the features.

I am hopeful that the customization features will be available soon for Closed cations.

Hi Nitesh,

I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 86, we’ve included important fixes and new features.

Two of the new features we’ve included: 

• Position captions at the top or bottom of the slide to ensure closed caption visibility and prevent the obstruction of critical course content.
• Customize the foreground and background colors of closed captions to complement your course design and maintain contrast accessibility

Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
