Apply Feedback master to multiple slides at once
Hi everybody,
due to request from our client we have adapted text and style of the Feedback in 'Try-mode'-simulations and quizes.
I was looking for an efficient method to take over a new feedback master to all simulation and quiz-slides.
The only approach I could identify is to manually change the assigned feedback master slide-by-slide and feedback layer-by-feedback layer, which is a big pain. Does anybody know of a way how to do that to multiple slides at once, as is possible with the normal slide master?
When I mark multiple slides to assign the feedback master to them, storyline always reverts back to the base layer - so I cannot assign the feedback master to the feeback layers of multiple slides at once.
I would highly appreciate, if anybody has found a nifty solution to this problem and could share it :-)!
Kind regards,
Marcus
Hi everyone!
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 74, we've included important fixes and new features.
One of the enhanced features we've included is:
- Quickly apply a feedback master to multiple question slides simultaneously.
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 questions!
Hi, Tommy.
Thank you for reaching out! I'm sorry you're encountering unexpected behavior when using the Feedback Masters.
Can you share a sample .story file or a screen recording of what you're experiencing so we can investigate what's happening? If you prefer to send it to our support team privately, you can use this link to open a case.
The simplest solution is to modify the current feedback master, that way it is automatically applied.
Hi Phil,
thanks for your response. I did that but unfortunately it is not automatically applied. As with normal slide masters, you can have multiple feedback-masters being "alive" in your content (each one being 'in use' for some slides). Now that I want to consolidate the feedback master to only use one template, I am looking for a way to do that.
Kind regards,
MarcusOK, I try to only keep one slide master and one feedback master in each course so i can apply new themes easily. Sound like you have multiple themes, you will need to do it on a slider layer basis which is laborious.
Phil any update to this?
Hi Steve,
This conversation is a bit dated and I wanted to start a new dialog with you to understand what you may be having difficulty with and what update you are asking about from Phil.
I'd love to be able to help you out :)
If you are following up on the initial question of applying a feedback master to multiple layers at a time, there has not been an update to that functionality.
Hello, I am also having a struggle with this thing at this moment. So I have to update few hundreds of courses, that regards changing the default correct/incorrect slide of each quiz slide. I have opened Feedback Master, imported the new correct/incorrect slides into it, and deleted the old feedback slides. Tho, this does not update the slides with the new desired correct/incorrect slides. I have to go to each slide, and from Layer tab to replace the wastes of default feedback with the new desired feedback style.
Pretty bad to do all this manually on about 7500 quiz slides.Hi Adan,
Yes, once you set up your new feedback masters you'll need to apply them to the individual feedback layers and their slides. If you set those up before creating questions they'd be applied as a part of the question creation.
I'm trying to create a handful of feedback masters to use across quizzes across multiple projects at a future date. I must be doing something wrong because Preserve doesn't actually preserve the feedback master when I try to apply it a new project.
How do you create a feedback master from scratch and have it apply to new projects? All the tutorials I've seen don't use the tweaked feedback master outside of the project it was created in. Thanks for any help!
Hi Heather! Preserving the feedback master will save it in the current file, but it won't be available in new files.
Instead, if you want to reuse a custom feedback master in new files, try saving that Storyline file as a template. Then, when you start a new file, you can open the template and begin from there.
