Timer to Slides Storyline - 360 Issue

Hi Yusuf,

Thanks for bringing this up, and I'm seeing the same thing you're seeing. In Storyline 2, the timeline was determined on a slide by slide basis.  It looks like Storyline 360 has changed the way that it calculates the slide timeline.

On the slide master, you have various "When timeline reaches..." triggers. The last trigger is "When timeline reaches 8 seconds." 

That trigger is causing the timeline to run for at least 8 seconds on every slide, so the last trigger can fire. 

From here, I’ll meet with my team to take a closer look, so that we can verify this is a bug. Sometimes my team catches errors in my logic and we don’t have a bug after all. Of course if that’s the case, I’ll let you know!

Thanks again for bringing this up here, and I'm sorry if it's slowing you down!

Hi Alyssa,

Yes please check if this can be resolved. Ideally the timeline should calculate Slide in our scenes and not Master Slide. 

This is a weird behavior

After a lot of Trial and error I think I've achieved what I wanted. 
Attaching a sample file which will

1) calculate the timeline as per the seekbar (or length of the slide).

2) Will also pause when you click pause.

3) To Function the seekbar needs to be read only

I think many of us might need this. Maybe this file could be of any help. :)

Thanks for sharing your workaround, Yusuf. I'm sure that will be helpful for other folks who need a slide timer. 

I'll pop back in and update this thread if I get more information on this issue!

Yes waiting for a solution for the issue part :) 

Hey any update on this issue?

Thanks for checking in, Yusuf. We're keeping an eye on this bug to evaluate how many customers are impacted and what impact it has on courses. The number of customers and depth of impact are two of the elements that help us prioritize bugs and fixes.  

You're in the right place to stay updated on this bug's progress. We'll share any new information we receive right here in this thread!

Hi All,

So to the file that I shared previously. The timer works fine. However it displays single digit for value less than "10". 

I have a requirement to display single digit nos as 01, 02, 03 and so on. 

Urgent help needed. If there is any way to achieve this. 

Regards,
Yusuf

I haven't looked at your file, but are you open to using a JavaScript solution?

Hi Owen,

I'm open to any easiest solution that can achieve this. 

Attaching a story file for your reference. 

Thanks in Advance.

Yusuf

Hi there, Yusuf. Good news! We fixed the issue you reported where slide timelines were changed by timeline triggers on the master slide.
