Kevin, I don't this this is a supported feature in Storyline. For some projects I've created a pop-up menu on a layer that the user could trigger that includes visual navigation. To do this, you could include an clickable icon on the slide and add a trigger to show the visual menu layer when the button is clicked. The images below show an example slide with the menu hidden (Image 1) and shown (Image 2)
It's not currently a feature within Storyline, although if you'd like to see it in an update, you'll want to share your thoughts here with our product development team in the form of a feature request.
Robert, great looking example! If you're able to share a .story file that others could use as a template that would be awesome, and I can see a lot of users appreciating it.
Nice workaround, Robert. One way to generate thumbnails for this method is to export to Word and export from Word to HTML, harvesting and resizing the images with a batch through Photoshop or Fireworks. Depending on how the screens are constructed, these can look decent.

Thanks, Ashley - I'll post the .story file as soon as I get the time to remove some project-specific content.
Awesome - thanks Robert!
Nice solution, Robert. Thanks for taking the time to reply.
I've also submitted a feature request for a sidebar thumbnail tab option.
