Problem with previewing

Oct 10, 2017

Hi

Has anyone experienced a problem previewing a project? I can preview the scenes individually, but not as a whole. I've tried previewing other projects and that works fine, so it must be something specific to this one file.  I just get a scrolling circle which jumps around the screen.

thanks in anticipation

Hey Jessica,

I'm happy to help you figure this out, and I've got a few questions to start:

  • What version of Storyline did you use to create this course?
  • Is this a new file, or is it upgraded from an earlier version of Storyline?
  • Are you working from your local hard drive?

If you can also share your file with me, I can take a peek under the hood. Thanks!

Hi Natalie! Are you having this trouble in the same file that had closed captions issues from this thread? If so, we'd definitely want to have one of our Support Engineers take a closer look. 

Could you send a copy of your file to our team by clicking here? And if you can let me know your case number, I'll follow along as well.

Hi Alyssa. They were all having the closed captions issue. All 10 of them within the project. 

With the issue in this thread, I did extensive troubleshooting to determine it all came down to one text box on one screen. There was no different font or structure, in fact this text box was copied from another text box already in the project. 

As as soon as I deleted this text box the whole project was able to be viewed again. 😕 very annoying (and time consuming!!!) but glad I didn’t lose the whole project!

Hi Natalie,

Sorry to hear you spent so much time troubleshooting on your own, but I'm glad you finally found what was causing the preview problem.
