Blurred screens

Has the blurred screens issue been resolved?

As I work on a project, I am currently making print screens based on the precise dimensions of my project screen (using Snagit). After importing screens from PowerPoint to Articulate, they lose quality and appear distorted. I found that the same issue persists when the screens are saved as PNGs.

Where can I find a solution to my problem?

  • Hi, Marleen.

    Thank you for reaching out!

    If I understand correctly, your process is:

    • Grab a screenshot with SnagIt
    • Insert the image into Powerpoint
    • Export the slides to PNG
    • Insert the PNG images into Storyline

    Have you attempted a few different methods, such as importing the ppt file or inserting the SnagIt screenshots directly into Storyline? 

    You can also check out this article for the best practices when working with images:

    I found a few discussions specific to using SnagIt with Storyline, but they don't mention Powerpoint as an intermediate application. Here is one example.

    Let me know if this helps!
