Change size of marker icon
Hi everybody, is it possible to change the size of markers to be bigger than the default 28 x 28?
TIA
Paul
Hello everyone!
I'm happy to share that we have released a new update for Storyline 360 (Build 3.88.32474.0).
In this update, we have implemented new feature:
- Easily adjust interactive marker sizes to optimize accessibility for any screen.
As a first step, I recommend updating Storyline 360 to the latest version. Here's how:
If you have any questions on Update 88, please let us know in this thread or privately in a support case.
Have a great day!
So over 4 yrs later no progress?
I would like to make the size smaller.Our team is trying to establish default slide sides for all of our projects. 1920 x 1080 is in line with modern standards (kind of) but we can't agree on setting all of our projects to this larger size just because the marker sizes can't be adjusted. This will cause more work for us when we inevitably convert existing projects to a smaller or larger slide size -- depending on what we choose. When will this feature be released?
Hi Griffin,
We still have no updates to share regarding this feature request. We'll be sure to let everyone in this thread know when this feature makes it to our Storyline 360 roadmap!
So maybe in another 4 YEARS???
Another 5 year old thread with dozens of paying customers expressing their frustrations at such a poorly designed feature which is so simple to fix - classic Articulate stuff.
Instead of asking for an update (because there won't be one) I'd like to ask WHY THIS HASN'T BEEN FIXED YET and WHY ARE YOU NOT LISTENING TO YOUR PAYING CUSTOMERS?
I agree with everyone! This small enhancement would helpful! Its crazy that it has taken this long to implement. If its not in the roadmap or not possible because other issues, it would be good to know as well.
Still nothing about customize markers?
Hi Camila!
Thanks for reaching out!
I don't have any updates to share at the moment as our development team has been prioritizing other features. I've included you in the feature report so you can be notified as soon as we have news to share!
In the meantime, here's a deeper look at how we manage feature requests.
lol... Marker Size seems like such a basic feature, from 5 years ago. Do any of the people that are part of the software development process (decision makers, product owners) ever actually use storyline? The sense I get is that they don't.
@Montse That's actually a neat trick. You need to make the border colour the same as the marker, so no nice white borders on dark backgrounds, but otherwise it works well.
One downside...you can't see the marker animation.
Great trick with the borders and I hope it can be made possible to increase the size of the marker soon too.
+1 for more controls on the marker icon
Another thing I have noticed is that as you reduce the storysize resolution the markers become bigger relative to other items on the slide (since they stay at a default 28 pixels) so if you need to make a marker interaction and aren't worried about other things use a low res storysize.
