Articulate Storyline wastes a lot of time

Can someone tell me why Articulate Storyline insists on wasting my time so much? About 30% of the time, there are new issues that surface that requires time to solve that could've been entirely avoided if the software was actually intuitive and effective. I'm cropping a picture. Suddenly, the picture has expanded for no reason, and I can' t undo, no matter how far back I go. So, now I need to waste my urgent time to correct this mistake or start from scratch again. 

Okay, another thing, a cropped picture suddenly becomes bigger and noticeably changes size when the learner clicks on the cropped shape/picture in between states. Why? There is absolutely zero reason...Even when ensuring that the shapes are the same dimensions, it's still an issue. Why? Again, waste of time to find a solution.

This software is infuriating, and I don't know when it'll finally become intuitive, but it looks to be far from now.

  • Hi Edward,

    I'm sorry about your frustrations with the crop tool! We would love to troubleshoot this for you! Would you be willing to share your file here or with our support engineers privately in a support case?

    Thanks for reaching out!
