Can you copy a Zoom Region?
I'm working with a course where I would like to have "the same zoom" on multiple slides. I found how to change the zoom speed, but I don't find anything that tells me the zoom size and position. I also don't seem to have functionality to copy and paste a zoom region from one slide to another. Is there anyway, other than eye-balling it, to make identical zoom sizes on multiple slides? The timing will be different, but I want the size and placement to match.

Yes please, this would make the zoom region feature much more useful and quicker to apply across multiple slides (or layers)

Ten years and counting and still no resolution!
Can you PLEASE look into this Articulate! It's all well and good copying a slide with a Zoom region but this is not practical when recording screen simulations.

I would like to add my voice to the chorus here--I would love to be able to copy a zoom region to another slide layer, keeping it the same position & size as the original.

Come-on Articulate. Storyline Objects have adjustable size and position - numerical variables.
How difficult can it be? - Ari_AviviCommunity Member
I could not agree more. This seems like something that should be a no brainer for development. It ends up either making the design work so difficult it isn't worth it, or the end product with so many little jumps that it looks cheap.
PLEASE GET THIS FEATURE IMPLIMENTED. - ScottCasey-a1b1Community Member
Are we up to year 9 and there is no workable solution yet?
At least display the zoom region dimensions and position like it was a shape. - TobyDLockyerCommunity Member
So it is 8 years since the issue was raised and no solution? I am kind of surprised about behaviour like this for a market leader in the field.
Why does Storyline even have a simulation mode when something as fundamental maintaining the same zoom over multiple pages is not supported?
I am on a project with extensive simulations and using the grid to manually place the zoom every time is a serious time drain.

I've submitted a feature request but would also like to express my frustration that this feature has still, after years, not been considered.

Me too - but i'm not hopeful we'll see it anytime soon. Given its been discussed for so long, seems to be an easy thing to implement and hasn't been. Well, I hope I'm wrong!

Done! I've been waiting for this for EIGHT YEARS!!!
