control size and position of zoom or grow object?

I want to zoom in on different speakers on a zoom call, like this. this would include specifying the initial and final size of the object, plus the position at beginning and end.

i had to capture a morph transition in powerpoint and record my screen in camtasia to get this demo animation, but i need to do it in storyline with some sort of grow/zoom feature. ChatGPT says that these features exist, but I don't see them (see output image). I recall doing this but it was likely in Captivate. Does the enhanced AI option offer this type of thing? I'm going to do a free trial to see if it's worth it, but i haven't seen this feature in there either. Thanks!

  • There is a zoom function but will not do what you want.

    You can export PPT as a video which maybe better than capturing. The morph function is coming to Storyline and should do this.

    What you're asking for is doable and can be further refined using JavaScript and GSAP in Storyline. Something like this

    If you apply an animation to an object, then cut the object and paste it into the state of another object, it will take the animation with it. You could try-

    • Importing a small version of an image
    • Importing a larger version of the image
    • Apply a zoom animation to the large image
    • Cut the large image
    • Create a state on the small image
    • Paste the large image on the small image
