Is making animation in Storyline 360 heavy in the LMS?
Hi, good people of E-learning Heroes!
I would like to know if there were reports of animating objects or using animation in Storyline 360 makes it heavy in the LMS? In my company, another department is using another e-learning tool which is web-based. And the boss of this department criticized my work because I use animation. He is saying that the animation makes it heavy in the LMS. I have been using Articulate Storyline since 2018 and this is the first time, I encountered this kind of comment. Can somebody shed some light to this? Explaining the technical aspect of using animation in Storyline 360 and its impact on the LMS would be a great help.
Thank you in advance.

the number and the complexity of animations has no impact on network requests
I was saying that the slowdown may be because the LMS is authenticating each file rather than the package, it wont have any effect on animations but this may be why you see slowdown with Storyline vs a video or another tool where the number of files is less. Already said that I didn't think that animations will have little to know effect on the size of the course.
