customise color of subtitle
Hi everyone,
someone can tell me the way for customising the font color of the subtitle and the background color of the subtitle zone ?
Thanks a lot,
Frédéric
Hello Everyone!
I'm happy to share that we have released Storyline 360 version 86 (Build 3.86.32028.0).
Included in this release is a new feature where you can 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!
Hi Frédéric,
I looked around for this as well, and the only relevant information I can find is this:
Storyline 360 supports bold, italic, and underline formatting in caption files as well as voice tags to indicate which person is speaking. All other formatting tags, such as font and font color, will be ignored. (Use the caption font setting in your player properties to specify which font should be used for your closed captions.)

Perhaps the thinking is that for accessibility reasons (this may even be a requirement), the player must have control of the formatting of captions/subtitles so that they can be adjusted based on the need (high contrast, non-red/green, extra kerning, etc).
I'll be following along to see if there is a method or workaround.
