When I try to insert icons from the content library, the library only shows greyed out warning triangles with an exclamation mark, no content. There's no problem with photos or illustrations. I've tried multiple searches with common terms and I've run the latest update.
Just a heads up - looks like your email signature came through when you replied via email. You can remove that if needed - quick Peek video here if you need help.
I was having the same issue the other day, but with photos and illustrations. It seemed to clear itself up after a bit, so i didn't think much more of it.
Interestingly the issue seems to have resolved itself this morning, after more than a week of not being able to access icons. However, on right clicking an inserted icon, there is no longer the option to 'Change picture' through the content library - only 'Change shape' - the local shapes, but I don't see this as a big issue. I had also tested an old file that I'd made in April, that already had icons in it, and could no longer insert icons in that. The support engineers got in touch and I've liaised with them. However, I thought it worth mentioning points here in case others had the same experience & could document it in this thread. Thanks everyone.
I have a similar question. My Insert strip show only CL characters, no illustrations, icons. screenshot attached. How do I access the rest. This is weird, no?
Hi everyone..software is up to date here, and no illustrations showing for me. Results in an empty place holder when I try to 'insert' one of the blank thumbnails from the gallery. Any more ideas? (screenshot attached)

I'm so sorry that's happening- definitely not what I'd expect to see!

Thanks so much for that update, Lyn! It's always great to have all the details here too, so I really appreciate that. ☺️
I do see you're still in touch with my colleague Vira, and I'll continue to keep an eye on your case!

Hey Daniel!
Are you on the latest update to Storyline 360? Here's how to check if you have pending updates.
Those features were added in an update, so if you're running an older version that may be why you don't see them!
Keep me posted 😊
Thanks so much Ali, that twas it. That additionally solved my "trying to open a template causes Temp file problems" problem. So thanks twice.
Woo-hoo! 🎉
So happy to hear that, Daniel-- thanks for the update!
Hi,
I am having the same no icons issue. Only photos and illustrations. What is the fix please. Thanks, Kahtleen
you've probably already checked, but r u on the latest SL update? this was my problem.
Hey Kathleen!
Daniel's suggestion is a great place to start. There have been features added in updates to Storyline 360, so make sure you're running the latest version.
If that doesn't resolve the problem, can you take a screenshot of what you see and share it here?
Thanks! Keep us posted 🙂
