Has anyone else experienced Storyline shutting itself down and throwing errors when you switch between the Storyline project and other windows programs?
I've had Storyline shutdown on me multiple times when I was simply minimizing or, in most cases, maximizing the Storyline window after having switched over to work in another program (either PowerPoint/Studio or Microsoft Outlook).
I did but was in the middle of working on the project so I lost it. The next time it happens I'll screen capture and record. Just though since it was pretty reliable on my side someone else had seen it.
I was finally able to reproduce this again consistently. It appears to happen whenever I click the Storyline icon in the quick launcher item menu to minimize the program and switch to another program.
Hi Alicia - I get this all the time. I am running Windows 7 on a 64 bit PC. It does not shut down for me though - I just throuhs up the error report window.
Yeah, I suppose it doesn't actually shut down, it just makes me nervous that the file(s) may become corrupted since I'm now unable to reliably use Quizmaker on my machine without causing files to become corrupted and seeing errors like this.

Have not seen this one myself.
By chance, did you capture any error messages?
Yeah, sorry Alicia. I haven't seen this either. Please let us know if you can replicate it in a screencast. Thanks!

Here's a screencast of it: http://screencast.com/t/mltI7BY6DT
I've also attached the error report XML file and I did send it off previously to Articluate via the error menu.
