Step-by-Step: Duplicate Slide: Video Dimensions Problems

Feb 09, 2015

I've inserted a step-by-step screen recording into my scene.

There is one slide that sits and waits for a 30 second upload process to complete. I want split this one video across two slides to trim out the stagnant video fine tune adjusting the endpoint of the first slide and the start point of the second slide.

When I duplicate the original slide, the video dimensions of the new slide increase and the videos don't match from the first to the second slide. I'm brand new to Storyline but I believe I have done this without a problem in a different scene. I'm not sure what is happening in this scene.

I've posted a screen shot of the two slides from my Slide View.

Ok... Files were so large that I've simplified it and was able to recreate the issue.

Original.story now contains a single scene. The scene was saved directly to that file. I then copied the scene from Original.story into Recipient_File.story .

Behavior matches description above:

Original: As expected. Video dimensions remain the same.

Recipient_File: Unexpected. Video dimensions increase

Hello Russ,

Thanks for sharing these files. I did see that in the Recipient file, the story size was not set up the same as the original. Once I updated the size, the files both looked the same:

I created a new file, update the size, then copied the scene into this,and it is appearing to be the same size. Attached is a file for reference.
