Publishing issues experience

Hi Chat54,

is the original coming from ppt(x) by any chance? I had similar problems when compiling my course which i previously imported from ppt(x). The isssue was that the original source had a hidden slide. SL doesn't like hidden slides

Cheers

Chat54,

Here are some other yhings that you might look at

• Are you running SL from your local drive (c ? SL doesn't like netwprk drives
• Have you tried deleting the temporrary SL files which are here \AppData\Local\Temp\Articulate\Storyline
• Have you tried rebooting your machine
• Do you have a virusscanner active that also scans tmp-files ?

Cheers

Thanks for the advice, I will check it out! I have already tried the virus scan and  reboot nothing changed.

Just out of interest when storyline publishes it does by slide, i.e. 1,2, 3 etc.. therefore if I have 5 slides in the first scene, (1.1,1.2,1.3,1.4,1.5) would I be right thinking that slide 6 would be Scene 2 slide 2.1 because my publishing window turns black at slide 6 and slide 26/26.

Thx

Hi Chad,

Good question...

How SL handles its compilation is somewhat a mistery (Non-linearity). At the end it is optimizing slides and images, it might well be that this goes wrong. If you like you can upload the source and we can all have a look at it

Sorted now thanks, I just took the opinion that storyline would publish in a linear fashion so deleted Slide 6 and everything worked! Amazing, sort of leaves me pondering why one slide can be corrupted?

Thanks Anyway

Great !

Thanks for the update Chat54 and I'm glad that you were able to publish your file successfully. As Geert mentioned working off your local drive is one of the recommendations to prevent odd Storyline behavior which could cause corruption in the file or even a slide.
