Layers set to 'Resume saved state' are not working properly
Layers that are set to 'Resume saved state' are not working properly - on revisit they are playing as if they have been set to 'Reset to the initial state'.
I've tested this on a few builds. T...
Hello everyone, 🎉
I have some great news to share! We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 91, we’ve included important fixes and new features. One of the bugs we’ve fixed:
- When revisiting slides, object states, layers, animations, and audio started over, even if they were set to resume saved states
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you need additional help.
I have a similar issue to Owen's. I have a Storyline block within Rise. When I go through the course, it does not remember saved states on slides although I have set slides to "Resume Saved State." (This is also true on LMS, see "update" below.)
The Storyline has 2 slides: The first slide has a Play button which proceeds to the next slide. I set it to "Resume Saved State." Although I set up a variable to skip the first slide after the user clicks the Play button, it does not work if I go elsewhere in the Rise course and then return.
The second slide is set to "Resume Saved State," this slide restarts to initial state. One note--I did set the individual layers on the 2nd slide to "Reset to Initial State," but I assume this is fine as Storyline allows you to set the layers differently from the base slide.
UPDATE I decided to do some LMS testing to see how things functioned.
1. I published the Rise course with the Storyline block on our LMS, and it the Storyline block acts the same as described above--neither slide resumes saved state.
2. I published the same Storyline file as a course and on our LMS, and the Resume Saved State functionality works correctly.

Hi AnneDeFelice,
Thanks for reaching out!
I understand the Rise course that includes the Storyline block doesn't resume the saved state when viewed in your LMS. Storyline courses in Rise always start over from the beginning when learners revisit them, so this behavior is expected. You may want to check out the other FAQs for Storyline Blocks here. If you have additional questions and would like to share a copy of your course with our team, you can do that through a support case! We'll be happy to take a look for further testing and will delete it from our systems once troubleshooting is complete.
