Copying Slide triggers – LOTS of slide triggers

I have made a little slider interaction where the user can click arrows at the end of scale to move the pointer toward either end. It has 50 slide triggers that change the state of the pointer.

I need to have this on a second slide that is already built. Is there a way to copy all 50 triggers at once to the new slide?

I supposed I could duplicate the existing slide and delete the parts I don't need. But I was hoping to just add the triggers to the new slide.

    I am struggling with this one too. I was building some components in a separate (less hectic) scene - so that I could build and test quicker. Got them all working, went to copy over to their proper layer and scene and ALL of the slide triggers don't copy over. 

    Duplicating the layer doesn't seem to work either. 

    Seems like ALL of the triggers should copy over. 

    Any thoughts or help...or is it just one at a time, still?

  • Attach your triggers to an objects timeline not the slide timeline, this way you can copy the object and all the triggers go with it. 

  • Hi Everyone,
     
    We just released another update for Storyline 360 and included a few important fixes and new features that you'll see in the release notes here.  
     
    A new enhancement is now you can select multiple triggers and edit them all at once. Easily copy, paste, move, disable, and delete triggers in bulk!
     
    Just launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer and click the Update button for each application. Details here. Please let us know if you have any questions, either here or by reaching out to our Support Engineers directly.
  • You need to be using the new trigger panel (I don't think you have a choice anymore). You should then be able to copy triggers by holding down shift or ctrl

      Hi Phil :)

      You saved my day!

      I could replace triggers and fix the problem I had been experiencing by following your instructions.

      Thanks so much for your guidance.

      Though, I wished Articulate could incorporate some of these features that will save time.
