Hello, what file type is recomended so a screen image is as clear as possible in the story file and on the engage interaction? Right now I use screen clip in ppt and save the image as a .emf.

Hi Robyn! Thanks for clarifying what you were seeing. It looks like you're publishing for video, so the choices are slightly different. Because the output will be in video, and not in slides that are rendered with images in a browser, there isn't an option to adjust image quality.
What are the dimensions of the images that you're using in your project? Are they being scaled up to a larger-than-original size?
Could we take a look at a few images and your .story file? That may help us narrow down any issues with scaling, as that could contribute to the display issues you're seeing as well.
Have you also tried publishing for another option than video? I'm curious if it's just the video playback that is impacting your image quality.
I have attached a sample file with a few engage interactions types that I use. I would like the images to be as clear as possible, thanks! Right now I publish to the web and use the files on our web server. Soon I will be publishing the files to our LMS.
Thanks for sharing your file. I saw the Engage interactions you've embedded towards the end of your Storyline course, when I uploaded it here to Tempshare. I also took a screenshot of what I'm seeing here.
I did publish this with the highest quality image setting from Storyline, but I I think what you're seeing is just the Engage interactions aren't as crisp/clear? That is too be expected as the Storyline image setting can't control the Engage interaction. If you wanted to change how the Engage items appeared, you may want to look at publishing the Engage separately and hosting that on your server. You could then link to it as a web object in Storyline.
It's also worth taking a look at the tips here for image quality of screen shots or recordings, as that's an area where image quality can suffer based on scaling or changing of the original recording size.

Hi there, Robyn. We list the supported file formats here, and EMF is one of them! These tips can help you get the best results when working with images and other media.
If you have anything specific you'd like us to test out, feel free to share it right here!
Do you know why I don't have the image quality option on my menu?

typically the image is H-6.61 and W - 13.84. I save as an emf. via ppt screen clip tool.
