Change the size of a marker

Hello,

Same problem here : we now want to use "Full HD" (1920x1080) scene size and those marker look very tiny and less noticeable.

Maybe it's time to make those marker re-sizeable?

Thanks.

The markers are pre-built and not editable. However, you can change the state of the marker and add your own. I just did a webinar on different ways to customize markers/labels that may help and give you some ideas.

I want to share my workaround with you. It is not perfect, you lose the ability to add an animation to a marker, but you get the functionality of the marker. 

I make the maker's background and border the same color and then increase the line width of the maker to match the size I need. I add an image to the normal state to change the button's icon. I made a quick and crude video of this process. I hope it helps.

Hi Melanie!

Hi Pierre,

Thanks for letting us know about your experience! A feature request for resizable markers has already been submitted to our team. This conversation is being linked to that request, so if it makes it onto our feature roadmap, we’ll make sure to update you!

I agree with Pierre!

It would also be nice to be able to resize the diameter of the "pulse".

Thanks!

I am adding my name to that list - please can the markers be re-sizeable. It seems daft to have them so small and inflexible when some people are using them for accessibility reasons to highlight transcript and audio options for learners.

I'd love to see this feature too ! Sometimes my texts just don't fit into a marker ... 

When we rolled out our first Storyline modules to our team for feedback the very first point was "These markers are too small" -- we want to have our modules at 1920x1080 and the drawback is the markers are practically invisible given the size restrictions.

Please expedite this feature request
