Can't import PowerPoint slides into Storyline 360.

I'm suddenly unable to import PowerPoint slides into  Storyline360. I've even tried importing slides I've imported before. Did something change? How can I fix? Thanks, Steve

Hi there, Liz. Happy to lend a hand!

Ah, I was able to recreate the square shapes after importing your PowerPoint slide into Storyline 360. Importing PowerPoint content into Storyline isn't an exact one-to-one conversion–so as a result, shapes may look a bit different.

Here are our pro-tips for importing PowerPoint and Presenter Content into Storyline 360 and since you're currently working with a jigsaw image, here's a similar discussion you may find handy. Let us know if you need anything else! ☺️

Hi and thanks so much for your reply. When you say you were able to recreate
the shapes, may I ask what exactly you mean. Did you have to redraw them.
What about the little circles and the combine shapes feature?

Thanks for sending me those links. It appears that there are more things
that don't import from powerpoint than things that do.

Could you perhaps recommend ways to make and import illustrations that 360
likes.

Thanks LIZ
