I need help with an animation I'm trying to configure

May 04, 2016

Hi, I've been trying to make an animation for a circle to rote on its axis but I can't make the path I want the circle to follow, Storyline just lets me make it out of it. I have many time trying this but it's almost impossible for me. This ones are the circles I'm trying to animate

I want both of this dashed circles to rote on its axis

DashedCircle

And here's how the path is show when I try to make the animation

CirclePath

I've tried to adjust is making it smaller but it doesn't work.

Hope someone can help me soon...

Thanks!

Hi Andrés, not sure which animation effect you need. Take a look at this link to see if there is any of animation you are looking for. I've also attached the source file below.

rotate.story

Hey Joanne I was reviewing your project but when I want to see the tirggers you did for the purple one I can see them, they don't appear I don't know why.

Can you please explain me how to do it?

Thanks!

Hi Andrés , please check out the layer. To do a cycle animation with entrance effect, you can use a layer to do so.

Hi Phil, I downloaded your file but it turns to a zip file not a story file(Markers.zip), and it includes files as below. I don't know how to open it in storyline. Could you teach me how to open it?

just rename it to .story looks like your browser treated it as a zip file

Phil, I've renamed the file, cause it also were downloaded as zip for me, but it didn't worked in my case. I renamed the .zip file I'm not sure if it was the one I had to rename.
