Anyone else always having to go to the end and shorten timeline?
As I make modules, I am forever finding that for strange unknown reasons, my slide timelines' overall lengths get lengthened way out like 60 seconds long or so, and I am constantly having to scroll to the right, drag it back, scroll a little more in, drag it left again, over and over again just to get it to come back to the end point of my audio track.
Anyone know what causes it to get pushed so far to the right somehow?
Anyone have a fast trick for automatically snapping it back as far left as the last chronological item in the timeline?

Hi Everyone,
I noticed that the original discussion is a few years old, however I'm experiencing the same problem with Storyline2. I'll set my timeline to end after the audio is complete, come back to the project days later and the slide timing has extended by a minute or more. Has anyone figured out what is going on and how to make it stop?
NOTE: I haven't pasted anything. I just opened the project and notice the extended timing.
Karel, I find that that happens to me occasionally. It's one of the things that I check before publishing a course.
Hi Karel! Are you utilizing the latest update to Storyline 2?
As mentioned above, an issue was fixed in Update 5 for Articulate Storyline. See this article for more information.
Yes I have the latest updates.
Hi Karel! Thanks for the update.

Hi Leslie,
Yes The update has been installed. You asked if I can attach the file for you to research, however I've already gone through and adjusted everything. I do you still think it will be helpful to reveiw?
Hi Karel, I assume this means you are unable to replicate the issue as well? It would be hard to review and possibly diagnose if the issue is no longer present and unable to replicate.
Yes, correct. However I'll be happy to upload a file should I experience it again. Thanks for attempting to solve my problem.
Thanks Karel!
I am on Storyline 2, update 6, and I am still having the padding issue. I just wanted to inform you that the issue persists.
I've been an active user for a couple of years now, but started having this issue for the first time after updating to 7: 1509.1408. What's going on? It's very frustrating. Even when I fix the timeline, it changes back to 1,010s after I preview!
