Slide out menu in Storyline

Sep 05, 2016

I created a simple menu that resides in the Master slide (and one layer in the Master slide). The first click opens the menu, the second click closes it.

It is created using only 2 motion paths and a few triggers.

Menu expanded

Live preview available here.

Source attached, dig around. :)

Thank you Daniel for the solution. It also happened to me that I always downloaded it as a zip file, and it did not work at all until I changed the extension to .story. Smart! :-)

I'm glad you were able to use Nejc's file.

Hello. This is a great template, but I am having difficulty setting it up. Can you please explain how you added the text to the menu with the slider and triggers? How many layers do you have on the menu screen? I do not see this in the tutorial video above. The tutorial starts after text has already been added, but the template does not. Thank you in advance.

There is no tutorial video. :)

Go under View -> Slide master. There is a layer of the actual menu that slides down.

Hi Nejc,

Thanks for this wonderful piece. However, i still find it difficult to add menu items in the slide master view. when i do and preview, the text doesn't show. any pointers?
