Engage in Storyline
I have a slide in Storyline 360 imported from Engage 360. I made some modifications in Engage, saved and returned to Storyline. The changes were not reflected in Storyline even though the preview in Engage works fine.
Then I opened Engage outside of Storyline. Created a new file which is the modified slide referenced above, imported to Storyline. But the preview does not include any Engage Interaction. I can't tell whether my imported voice over text works in Storyline. It seems very inefficient to publish the whole file just to see if one slide works or not.
I admit I am new to Articulate and not a computer science, just a regular faculty trying to create online course for my employer. Help....advice..

Hi, all!
I have some great news to share. We just released a new version of Storyline 360, which included a fix for the issue where the preview button in the Engage Tools Ribbon in Storyline 360 showed a white screen when clicked.
To take advantage of this update, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find step-by-step instructions here.
Please let us know if you have any questions by posting here or reaching out to our Support Engineers directly.
Hi, KC.
Thank you for sharing additional details and describing your current workflow.
It looks like we have a bug reported where the Preview button in the Engage Tools Ribbon shows a white screen.
I've connected this discussion to the bug report, and I'll be sure to come back to update you when I have some news.
In the meantime, here's more information on how we identify and tackle bugs.
Thank you, Maria.

Hi, KC.
I responded to a similar question regarding using text-to-speech audio for Engage interactions here.
Let me know if you still need help with this issue!
Hi Maria,
If I want the text-to-speech to synchronize with the automatically advancing of items, I have to create the text-to-speech in SL, export the sound wave, import to Engage and do the editing.
If I import the slide from Engage, then do the text-to-speech, I can only do it for the entire slide, not item by item.
So I used the first approach. While it works, it is very tedious. Also I cannot see the Engage interaction using the Preview (first icon at the left of the Engage option tool bar while still in SL), the screen went blank. If I open it in the web, I can see the Engage interaction but the narration is not there. The only way I can see if all the interactions and narration I import from Engage works in SL, I have to publish it. If I have to import many slides from Engage, that would be a lot of extra work.
Engage and Studio work wells together except for the lack of text-to-speech.
