Morph transition in Storyline
- 3 months ago
Hello everyone, 🎉
I have some great news to share! We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 98, we’ve included essential fixes and new features. One of the new features we’ve included is:
- Engage learners with fluid transitions that seamlessly animate objects, shapes, and other content between slides.
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 don’t hesitate to reach out if you have additional questions.
This feature would be nice. A workaround I have used is to create an image from Storyline and paste it in PowerPoint as a guide then replace the objects and create the Morph transition. then export that to a video and place that at the end of the Storyline slide. It is not tricky or time-consuming and it works. It does diminish editability in Storyline but if all you are morphing is an object or icons, it works well.
Jumping off of David's idea, I took a PowerPoint deck that Sarah Hodge shared that had great morphing transitions and tried to get Storyline to do the same thing.
Scene 1: I imported it into Storyline and it kept the animations but not the transitions.
Scene 2: I played with the Storyline transitions to see if I could get anything close to the PPT. Nada.
Scene 3: I did File Save as Video in PPT and imported it into Storyline and Voila! A replica of the PPT actions.

I've attached the Storyline file showing this, and put the original PPT in the resources.
I also discovered that PPT's Recording tab ribbon has a Publish to Video button that does the same thing as save to MP4 AND the Publish to Microsoft Stream creates the same thing in Stream, so no need to convert to video and upload.
