2 improvements I would like to see for Closed Captions in StoryLine 360
I am so glad that Storyline has a nice and easy way to incorporate Closed Captions for our projects to help those with hearing impairment. But here are a couple of features I would like to see that ...
Hi everyone,
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 86, we’ve included important fixes and new features.
Two of the new features we’ve included:
- Position captions at the top or bottom of the slide to ensure closed caption visibility and prevent the obstruction of critical course content.
- Customize the foreground and background colors of closed captions to complement your course design and maintain contrast accessibility
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Any word on this? At 100% Player font size, the CC text is probably unreadable for over 50% of the population. To get it to a comfortable size you have to go to at least 150%, which in turn makes your ToC enormous along with all the other text you have on stage (Title, Resources etc.)
Not to mention what it does to the actual links in your resources list. Try it with a list of links where they have over 5 words, it's just a disaster.
This is a broken feature in my mind.
Don't hold your breath. Articulate had been very slow to make any real
improvements to their product over the last few years. They seem to be
resting on their laurels to me.
