Thumbnails in Library of Articulate app on iPad
Mar 12, 2015

As we know, on the iPad, Storyline content plays back in the Articulate app. In the past, a thumbnail image in the Library automatically reflects the FIRST slide of the presentation. Based on that behavior of the app, I designed the first slide of all my presentations with minimal layers so they show up as clean "covers" in the Library.
Now, all of a sudden, in a new presentation I just published, the app picked the SECOND slide to be thumbnail image, exposing all the twenty layers of overlapping text boxes, shapes, and images from all the animation involved. It's UGLY!!! I cannot let that be the "cover" of my presentation!
Is there any way to specify the thumbnail image that appears in Library of the app?

In the Publish dialog, you can pick which slide thumbnail will be used. See here for info, under 'Step 2 (Optional): Enter Additional Project Info for the Articulate Mobile Player'.
