Copy/Paste Images from one story to another
I'm on the latest version and it won't copy and paste images form one Storyline file to another. I've tried using 2 Storylines open at the same time. I've tried copying the entire slide but a white placeholder comes in. I can import images normally but because it was cropped in the original file it means I have more work to match it. I can't believe this bug has been around for 9 years!
Yes this is really a frustrating bug.
the slide import workaround is a good one but still, you have to import an complete slide.What I have been doing since, which ultimately increased productivity for us, is create a Storyline Project that is a template of all the layouts we have in a certain course or class of courses and then I either import slides from it to our actual course project, OR, I import and entire scene and have a "Template" scene within each Storyline project file. When I publish, I publish the relevant scene without the "Template" scene.
This method proved a real convenience and time-saver when working on large-scale courses and of course it is eliminates most of the copying/pasting from different projects.
You have to go to import in the menu and import the entire slide that contains the assets you want.
They aren’t going to fix it this is abundantly clear at this point :(
Unfortunately that does not always work either.
