Export to Powerpoint from Storyline
Hey, all.
I'm really sorry that my reply came across as disrespectful. I'm super passionate about treating support staff with kindness, and I have a bad habit of going on the offensive when I perceive that this ethic has been violated. I sometimes learn more from the way my dinner date treats our server than from the way he engages with me. 😀
I do think Articulate understands the importance of listening to their customers, as evidenced by the list of features and fixes they've added since Storyline 360 was released. I just happen to disagree with the notion that this particular feature request passes the ROI sniff test. I can't imagine the amount of effort that it would take Articulate to digest PowerPoint's 649-page proprietary file format and develop an algorithm that converts a .story project file to that format and dumps everything of value (triggers, layers, variables, and so on) that Storyline adds to the equation. It feels like a feature that looks backward instead of forward, and I'd rather see their product team spending time on things like improved learner Accessibility.
Who knows, though? I heard a rumor that Articulate might add a slide numbering feature soon, and that's something they've opposed for years. Maybe export to PowerPoint will come.
Happy Super Bowl Sunday, and may the best team win!
