3D Models in Storyline
Hi,
is it possible to insert 3D Models and having the leanrers to rotate it with their own mouse? If not yet, when will this be available? I find this very useful and have seen it at the Learntec....
I can help you with that!
Articulate Storyline itself doesn't currently support inserting and directly interacting with 3D models. However, there are a couple of workarounds you can try:
- Embed a Web Object:
* Find a website that allows you to publish 3D models with interactivity, like BioDigital Human.
* Publish your model and copy the link.
* In Storyline, insert a Web Object and paste the link.
* Learners will be able to view and interact with the 3D model through the website within your Storyline course.
- Use Images from a 3D Model:
* This method involves creating multiple screenshots of the 3D model from different angles.
* You can use PowerPoint's 3D model insertion feature (if you have Office 365) to achieve this.
* Import these screenshots into Storyline as separate image states for a picture.
* With triggers, you can simulate a rotating effect when learners click and drag on the image.
While these are workarounds, they can still add some level of engagement with 3D content in your eLearning courses.
As for future support for native 3D models in Storyline, there is no official announcement from Articulate. You can stay updated by checking their community forums or contacting their support team.
