I'm totally new to Storyline - just downloaded a very cool radial template. I have found where to put my content on specific slides, but not where to update the actual radial menu. I have little or no time and conflicts for upcoming Storyline classes so any suggestions would be appreciated!
Go to View and Slide Master in the ribbon at the top, then you'll be able to view and edit the Menu open and Menu close layers in the Slide Layers panel on the bottom right. Then just click Close Master View at the top when you're ready to go back to your slides.
Are you looking for the text to change or for it to appear above the hotspots? I'm not clear on what you meant behind? But if you'd want it above the hotspot to edit it, click on that actual text box on the timeline and you should be able to change it to what you'd like.
I opened your .story file as well, but it doesn't seem to match the image you shared here. If you want to share that .story file I'm happy to take a look and point out where to change that text!
I see the problem. There are no actual textboxes on the timeline, and the placeholder text is part of the image and not editable. I'm not sure why the creator of the template didn't include text boxes, but an easy fix is to just add text boxes over top of the Lorem ipsum text and set the Shape Fill of the text box to the same light blue color as the background (using the Eyedropper). That way the original text is covered up.

Hi David,

Thank you for your response! I can get there - and I can type, but the Lorem ipsum text is still behind?
