Bloated Storyline File Size
If you delete in Storyline file and then do a save as the file will still keep the original contents in case you want to do an undo. To reduce the size you should close, reopen and save. If that doesnt reduce the bloat open a support case.
Not really. This is an on-going issue from years ago and was just wondering if there has been a "fix" for it.
And that's not saying that I do appreciate the suggestion but...it doesn't work. I've been using SL for a decade now, and this has been going on since 3 I think.
The steps you mention? Don't work. That's how that screenshot was taken...Closed the file...reopened the file...saved the file...STILL bloated.
The ONLY method the reduces the file size and puts it in the "normal" range is the method I outlined originally. Open Storyline...create a new file with the same Design Size as the one to "convert," import that bloated file, and save. And the file size is reduced.
I'm just wondering WHY this happens. Even in a brand new file. And, even if the undo option were viable, after I save the file, and then reopen it, and then save it again...it's still bloated, even though the option to "undo" is no longer "there."
