Hi Nadia,

Thanks for letting us know what you're experiencing, and I'm sorry you're running into this issue in Storyline 360.

Bug: When "Show until the end" is enabled, Align to playhead for an object extends the length of the timeline.

We do have it reported it to our team and continue to keep an eye on it to evaluate how many customers are impacted. We'll jump back in here when there's any news to share on a fix.

Hi Ren, is there a plan to fix this anytime soon? There are forum posts about this going back eight years. If it helps, I have figured out that it seems to occur only if you're extending the beginning of the object's timeline to an earlier point in time, and the amount of time it extends is equal to the difference between the playhead and the beginning of the object's timeline before you aligned it. In other words, if the timeline of the slide is 20 seconds, and the object entered at 7 seconds, and then you align the object's entrance to the playhead at 0 seconds, it extends the entire timeline by 7 seconds to 27 seconds.
