Change picture in Rise on labeled graphics page with a photo from the content library

Hi Gaby,

Take a look at Adam's video here. It explains how you can add Content Library images throughout Rise - with the exception of the labelled graphic base image. 

Adding a image from content library to the base Labelled graphic is something we've shared as a feature request with our team! 

Hi Ashley,

Thanks. I'm a newbie, so forgive any silly question.

I cam here becasue I had exactly the same question. Watching Adams video didn't help be since Adam he shows a button explicitly saying "change image" plus he has a different image rather than the balloon. 

Is it because I'm still in my trial mode that I have no means of changing the balloon icon to something else or am i missing apoint here?

Thanks

Hi Matthias,

Sorry for the confusion! In Adam's video, you saw a button labeled Change Image. This button allowed you to select an image from your computer to replace the background image in a labeled graphic. 

Since that video was recorded, we've made an update to that button, and it is now labeled Edit. That button has two functions: 1) Upload an image from your computer, and 2) Edit the Alt Tag of the image.

Here's a new video which explains how to change the background image. And yes, you can change the background image while still in Trial Mode. The trial is a full version of Rise!

Let me know if that helps! 

Hi Alyssa,

Thanks for the explanation.  And let me say that never in my life has anyone answered a question about a software functionality in such a great way and so quickly! Thanks so much! Honestly, this wonderful way of communication makes me feel even better to have upgraded the trial version into a full one two days ago!

What I’m struggling with is that within RISE there is no consistency whether to be able to upload images “only” from my computer or whether to chose an image/photo/icon from the content library. The beauty of your library is, that it’s huge, has pitch perfect images and icons, is well structured and indexed and I find what I’m looking for. Especially the photos have a great resolution and always fit. It was a major reason for choosing to buy the suite for me.

 So, for this particular example with the “labeled graphic” why is it that I can’t access the library directly to upload photo from there?

 Thanks and best

Matthias

Thanks so much for that feedback, Matthias! And really happy to hear that you decided to purchase Articulate 360. We hope you'll love it as much as we do. 😊

We chose not to include access to Content Library images in the Labeled Graphic lesson because we didn't think customers would need to label a random stock photo image. I'm curious to hear more about what you'd like to see, though.

• In what scenario would you need to label a stock photo in a Labeled Graphic lesson?
• What other areas of Rise need access to Content Library images that don't already have access?

I'm so happy to see this conversation stream because I was questioning the same thing. If you create an metaphor to something it would be helpful to be able to use a stock image. for example, I can teach someone who knows cars about a body cell by using metaphors.

Hi Alyssa,

the answer to your questions might come, when you answer what your target customers of RISE are.

Maybe its me. I chose RISE because I’m a freelancing consultant and because I’m a total newbie. So I don’t own any photos and will always shy  away from buying them for cost reasons and because I’m unsure about technical pre-requisites in terms of resolution and royalties.

RISE solves all of these problems when using its Content Database.

Let me turn the perspective:  Articulate offered access to this database and I decided to pay for it. What are the reasons now to (technically) limit the access to it?

Best and thanks again
Matthias

You make an excellent point, Matthias. The more we learn about how our customers are using the lesson types in Rise, the more improvements we can make. I'm going to share your feedback with my team, and I'll keep you posted on any new developments.

Just wanted to add that I agree on all point made by Matthias! 

I would like to add a new background image from Content Library for my labeled graphic.  Why?  Because I do not have access to the type of high quality images available outside of the Content Library.

I am paying for use of the images in the Content Library in my A-360 subscription, but if I want to use them in the Labeled Graphic lesson in Rise, I need to open Storyline, download the image, then save and re-upload to Rise (labeled graphic lesson.)  Is that correct?

I would think you could add a link to the Content Library from the "Edit Button" on the main page of the labeled graphic.  Is this possible, and if so, what will take to make happen?

Thanks!

Dave
