This course I am building has grown to 120 Megs and I am just 75% done. Every slide has a relevant background image (I am buying them from Canstock.com, medium and large JPEG). So, Storyline slowed to a crawl at about slide 35. I took to switching off the BG JPEG and no more freezes and lockups. Likely this has been commented on before but thought it worth mentioning.
Peter, sorry for the basic question but can you explain a little more? I don't understand what you mean when you say switching off the BG JPEG. Thanks,
I set the visibility of the full screen JPG to false and work with a white screen. When the full screen JPG is visible Storyline slows down to a crawl, showing me a spinning doughnut or an "+" for what seems like forever. This PC has 24 gigs of RAM and an i7 4790 CPU so processing power should not be an issue.
So you're talking about a background picture that you've inserted? I see where you can hide the background (though that's not working for me). I just couldn't figure out where you were turning it off or setting it to false. Sorry to be laborious.
Yeah, learning Storyline at my age is kinda of like having Alzheimers: every day is a new day. hahahahaha ToolBook has the same behavior when the page gets crowded but it just crashes without warning. Storyline, bless it, saves the work.
