Has anyone else ever tried to import a 360° image into a Storyline file? I'm using Storyline 360 for training purposes and would like to include a picture in which someone can look around a room and identify key items. It would look similar to the images that were flooding Facebook for some time. You can click into the image and then scroll around or change the angle at which your device was pointed and look around in an environment...any suggestions appreciated. I've tried once but it just wants to flatten the image and create a panoramic picture. Thanks!

Here is a tutorial I wrote about how to rotate a 3D object in Storyline. The principles would be the same for a 3D scene assuming you have all the relevant views you'd need to make it work.Tutorial: http://www.4-pt.co.uk/3d-rotation-storyline-2/ Example 1: http://www.4-pt.co.uk/samples/3d-markers/story.html Example 2: http://www.4-pt.co.uk/samples/3d-psoriasis/story.html

Hey Ron, It sounds like you are looking for some community collaboration. I just wanted to let you know that we are tracking requests for additional VR and 360 support, so I'm adding this conversation as well :)

Hey Sean! I haven't seen any examples of 360 images used in Storyline, but this slider-controlled exploration is pretty neat! Would something like that work for what you had in mind?

Here is an example of a 3D object being displayed inside a Storyline webobject. And here are examples of using Storyline image objects with custom states to provide 3D rotation (see the 4th and 5th example).

Thanks for checking back in, Ron! 😊 I don't have an ETA to share as of yet, but I promise we'll keep everyone here in the know with any new information. This discussion is tagged to our VR and 360° support request's report, so if there's any forward movement, everyone here will get an email notification.

Hello. I am doing 360 image / interactive exploration in Captivate now. Very buggy. I would be happy to beta test a similar functionality for Articulate Storyline!! :)

Hello everyone. It seems that there is growing interest in utilizing 3D objects, 360 deg views and VR. May I please be notified too of any updates and releases. Thanks.

Hi Sean,

This is great but do you have an example of how you created a 360 panning of a given environment with interactions? I was also thinking to build a photoshop 360 image for Captivate and trying to connect the two but I'm sure that could be a mess.

Please advise if I could use a 360 and these hotspot/click and reveal interactions with the slider to create the effect I'm going for. I would like users/learners to pan the environment and pick out items that do not belong.

THanks for sharing these!

  Allyncia,
  
  I used a 360 Camera (Ricoh Theta). PhotoShop was able to import the image in the 3D layer/environment for editing. The software I've tested to add interactive hotspots, hyperlinks, videos, etc. is Cupix.
  
  Since my submission of this request, I've moved positions and this is no longer a priority on my list of projects. A co-worker of mine is signed up to receive updates though. Hope this helped and you find what you're looking for.
  
  Best of luck!

    I hope your colleague sees this too since I do have more questions.
    
    THanks so much! I'll check out what you have mentioned in the meantime! Cheers!
