Changing the colour of the closed captions font and the background?
Hello!
I am playing around with the closed caption feature and try to make it work with our corporate colours.
Is there a way to alter the colors of the background and the fonts of the closed captions?
Hello Everyone!
I'm happy to share that we have released Storyline 360 version 86 (Build 3.86.32028.0).
Included in this release we have two new features:
- Position captions at the top or bottom of the slide to ensure closed caption visibility and prevent the obstruction of critical course content.
- Customize the foreground and background colors of closed captions to complement your course design and maintain contrast accessibility.
All you need to do is update Storyline 360 in your Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let us know if you have any questions by reaching out to our Support Engineers directly.
Have a great day!

Thanks! I'll try to apply the same technique you used above to see if I can influence the volume setting.

Thanks, Margit

Margit, you might be able to use Knut's example above and do that through an Execute Javascript trigger within the course. That way you would not have to modify the published output each time.

Knut, does placing the trigger on the Slide Master help with that or just cause more problems?

That's great Knut! I'm saving your code for use elsewhere! :)

Knut, this is great. Do you know how to change the position of the CC box? I would like to lower it on my screen.

Thank you Knut!
Thanks for that feedback, Carole! I can definitely see how having more options to adjust caption text size and color would make life easier. Would you mind sharing your idea with our product team in a feature request here?
We're always thinking of ways we can improve our products, so keep the ideas coming!
