Is there anywhere in Storyline 3 where I can see a list of the assets placed in a module? I was just curious if I could go to an assets list to see any assets that were not being used in the module.
That isn't a current feature of Storyline, but I could see how helpful that would be! Have you shared your thoughts as a Feature requests here? If you’re wondering what happens when you submit a feature request, here’s our process.
We need the ability to have an asset list window so we can quickly reuse elements across multiple slides particularly audio and video.
I would like to know that if I insert from file the same audio clip to multiple slides is it in fact being included in the total file output multiple times...thus increasing the size of the overall package?
Thanks for the reply...just to be clear if I insert the same filename in different slides, but edit differently,...say crop the end of one and keep it on another...Storyline still treats it as the same file in terms of overall size?
When you edit or crop an audio file, Storyline treats the edited version as a different audio file. So in that case, the overall size of the project will increase.
An Asset list would indeed be a nice feature. A list which shows the assets used in your project. How many instances of the asset are used (and maybe even an option to quickly jump to the location where it's used). At what resolution are images imported in SL360 so you can see if images need to be downsized for optimalisation purposes. And the posability to quickly replace items in your project.

Hi Darin,

I agree totally!

Thanks for chiming in, Robert! It's helpful for us to know how in-demand this feature is.
Also, inserting the same audio clip on multiple slides does not increase the overall file size. Let me know if you have any other questions!

I've made a feature request also.
Thanks Harold! That is a fantastic idea. Thanks for sharing :)
