Hi, everyone!
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 73, we’ve included important fixes and new features!
One new feature we’ve included:
Boost video accessibility by including closed captions when publishing projects as MP4 video files.
To take advantage of this update, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you need additional help!
Hey Matt,
If you have an audio clip added to your slide, you should be able to select that and then click Options > Add Captions in the ribbon.
Check out the documentation here.
OK, I see. I think I was hoping that it would take my audio and automatically populate the captions. Kind of like a reverse operation of how you can type the text and have the automated voices read it. Thanks for getting back so quickly, it's not what I wanted (having to type captions for 3 dozen slides), but at least now I know how to do it. Thanks again Leslie!
quicker way to do it is copy and paste your audio script into the text to speech tool - click for closed captions to be created. - this will create your captions along a timeline - then go into the closed captions option on that audio your created - export the captions and then import them into your proper audio - it wont match exactly but will be a case of adjusting rather than typing all of them in.
Lizzie- while this isn't a perfect solution, it's a real time saver over what I was doing. You've literally saved me hours on this course. Thanks so much for sharing!
