I love how easy it is to learn Rise360, but also that creating using other tools can easily be imported in using a Storyline Block (i.e. creating a glossary in Engage and then importing using Storyline).

Favourite feature, or at least the feature that has saved me the most time/money is the media library
Love these answers! Keep 'em coming. :)
As a former project manager, Review 360 is definitely one of my favorite apps.

I love the "Jump to Time" trigger for videos! Awesome feature back in June 2020 and the Preview Selected Slides features. I'm still watching for the future feature that warns you when you go to publish a Storyline 360 project that you have hidden items on the timeline. :)
Ooh good one, Richard! I love that one too.
Have you submitted your idea as a feature request? If not, you should! Such a good idea.

Allison,
I think I submitted this a few times over the years. I just submitted it again. Patience is the key. :)

Least favorite is the new dashboard on 360. Why have templates be the first thing we see? I don't create a new course every day. I edit courses at at least a 20:1 ratio to creating a new course. I'd prefer the landing page to be my existing Rise courses and then click out of there.
Thanks for this feedback Steve! If you have time to submit it here too, that would be great: https://articulate.com/support/contact/feature-request

Honestly, my favourite thing about SL is that it's so robust a software that if I think of a feature or functionality that I'd like to use but which does not exist, there's often a way to trick the SW into functioning the way I want it to.
That being said, I'll keep adding Feature Requests as I come up with them...
Thanks Nate! We appreciate your help making our software continuously better :)

The Storyline block in Rise is my favorite. Although I wish I could influence more users to design their Storyline projects more intentionally when they know it will be used as a block. (Think "Banners" instead of "Slides" or "Blocks".)
My next favorite is probably the embed feature. Being able to bring in an active chat window, 7taps micro-course, or even an interactive Miro board exponentially increases the power of Rise.Ah yes! Another great one. Totally agree that when you know it'll be integrated into a Rise 360 course you design it a little differently.

I think for me it would have to be format painter in SL, the amount of time this has saved me is just huge, if we get a change then I can quickly just reapply to all my Ui elements.

Devin, Iām so with you on that one. I also like format painter for when I change my mind. š

I love the print results page for quizes. Better yet, I love that you can customize the information that learners see on the print results page by just manipulating the report.html code.
One of the goals my manager gave me at the end of 2020 was to provide a Results page that didn't give away correct answers (yet let the learner know whether the answer was correct or incorrect). I acheived that goal before 2021 :-)! This was something our Compliance Dept wanted, and it was great to be able to oblige them.
I also love free form quiz questions. They're so incredibly easy to use. I've used other course authoring tools, and Storyline 360 is by far the easiest authoring tool to use when customizing quiz questions.- SarahHodgeFormer Staff
Those are some great features, Linda! It sounds like you're doing some amazing things in Storyline 360. Congrats on reaching your 2020 goal! š š

I can rename a variable and all references automatically update.
- SarahHodgeFormer Staff
Ohhh...that's a nice one, Thaddeus! Something about seeing all of those variable names update is so satisfying. š
