how to export closed captioning in player sidebar

Hi all! I recently "inherited" an old eLearning course that has narration, and the closed captioning is seen in the sidebar of the player. I'm using Storyline 3.

Is there a way to export the closed captioning, as I'm rebuilding the course with a  more modern look?

Many thanks!

  • Hi Dawn, 

    Thanks for reaching out! 

    You'll see the option to export Closed Caption files when you click on a media file. Here's a screenshot so you can see exactly where the export option is:

    You'll see the same export option when you click on audio files. With that being said, if you're willing to share a copy of your project file with us, I'll be glad to take a closer look at how the captions in the file are setup if using the export option doesn't work for you. 

     

  • Hi Joe -

    Thanks for this. Unfortunately, the export is greyed out. But I worked around it by exporting the file to a .doc file and drawing the words from there!

    Thanks for reaching out! Much appreciated.

  • Hi Dawn,
