Media names on the timeline
I have found it useful to rename the native asset names on the timeline (e.g., "audio 1" or "picture 1") to the actual media filename. It makes things easier to manage, imo. I embed a lot of voiceover audio and have a lot of pictures that I put in the projects. It would be nice if Storyline could automatically rename the assets on the timeline to the actual filename.
..."Audio_Slide 2.1_Intro.mp3" is a lot more informative to me than simply "Audio 1", and if I need to replace the media on the timeline, it's easier to see exactly where it is...
I agree. Please make this change.
This would be very useful.
Agreed, this feels like an easy enough change.
This would be so helpful!
I agree with this suggestion.
I concur.

Hi, everyone!
I appreciate you taking the time to share what you’d like to see in Storyline 360! We currently have this logged as a feature request, so I’ll be sure to add each of your votes. We’ll update this discussion if this feature makes it on our feature roadmap!
That would be useful to me too, though I currently need the opposite, specifically for items created within Storyline, like Neural Text-to-Speech files. There's no way to automatically name them, and finding the right one in the media library when they're all called "text to speech #" requires a lot of playing random audio files to guess.
Hi Andrew!

I've included your feedback in the feature request our team is currently tracking. We'll let you know as soon as we have updates to share.
