DEMO: Horizontal scrollbars (Panel) are possible

Hi, just tried myself in 360 and though it didn't work in preview mode... I published the piece with the horizontal scroll panel and it behaved fine once published... worth giving it a try.

To test the scroll in preview mode you can click on the scroll bar and then use the left and right arrow keys to scroll back and forth.

Come on Articulate team and make horizontal a standard feature... and allow both horizontal and vertical on the same area too :-)

Hi Mark P,

Do you know if you were viewing the Flash output when you saw the publish? The preview in Storyline 3 (and 360) is HTML5, so that may explain some of the difference you saw. 

I love the idea of more scroll bars, and would like to know more about how you'd use these in your courses. Can you share in a Feature requests here? If you’re wondering what happens when you submit a feature request, here’s our process.

Thanks for sharing your workaround, Mark! 

Also, it looks like your email signature came through when you replied via email! No worries, this Peek video will show you how to remove it. :)

Hi 

Thanks for discussing exactly this feature I was just looking for. However, I seem to be too stupid, to realize it myself :-(, even though I followed the help clips. 

I add the slide so you can see, that - after groping - when I trie to rotate the text back so it's horizontal, the whole text boox gets messed up and the scroll bar is much too short and does not show the whole text. 

Any idea, what I'm doing wrong? I work with 360.

Thanks in advance for any hint and have a great weekend you all

Stumbled overt this thread while searching for an answer to Q: "how to create horizontal scroll Panels" and was first happy as the concept seems very locigal. Yet, after trying it myself, I somehow cannot get my horizontal scroll bar to work.

As should be seen in the attachment, the text field I want to show in the horizontal scroll Panel goes crazy, after turning back the text field 90°. I selected "do not autofit" but the text box jumps somewhere in the middle of the Panel. When I align it manually, the scroll Panel disappears.

Any idea, what I could be making wrong? thx in advance and best regards

Sorry! Meant to write that in another threat, instead of writing double :-).

Thank you for all of info shares in this thread! I assumed the scrolling panel let you choose to pick the direction to scroll. I have a system screen that scrolls left to right that I am simulating in a lesson that wouldn't work with out this thread. I may have panicked a bit until I found this thread.

I am not able to get it to line up 100%, but for this moment I am going to call it good enough and come back with fresh eyes tomorrow. Hopefully I can get it to perfectly line up so it doesn't drive me crazy!

So is this going to be added to storyline eventually or not? This fix "works" but it's incredibly buggy in storyline 360 and images tend to jump around if the panel is resized in any way.

how bout just making the scroll panel able to rotate instead of having to compress everything into groups.

Hey T.J.!

Thanks for reaching out and letting us know what you would like to see. I appreciate you sharing how this would work well for you and for suggesting the simple idea of rotation.

I've submitted this feature request on your behalf.

I wanted to share some information about how we manage these feature requests as that may be helpful. 

Horizontal scrolling, in my opinion, seems such a simple feature that I cannot believe it is not already in the software!!! The workaround is ok for a single object - albeit very clunky and frustrating in terms of exact positioning - but I want to have multiple images in a horizontal scroll box - it is almost impossible to achieve. Does anyone else have any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Pete
