Way to link shapes throughout course

Aug 20, 2019

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to link objects, shapes, text etc. ? 

I have a shape that reoccurs throughout my course. If I wanted to edit this I would need to search through my course and it edit it each time it appears.

If I was able to link the shape it would mean only editing it once as it would automatically update the rest. 

Thanks

HI Rebecca, the media library is probably your best bet for this - https://community.articulate.com/series/articulate-storyline-360/articles/managing-assets-with-the-media-library

I don't believe you're able to add "shapes" to the media library at this time, but a work around is saving your shape as an image, then adding that image to your media library and using throughout your project.

My workflow for this would be to make sure I preserve the shape used to create the image either off slide or on a hidden slide somewhere in my course. This way if I need to make an edit I still have access to the original shape.

Hope this makes sense!
