Hello Everyone!
I'm happy to share that we have released Storyline 360 version 86 (Build 3.86.32028.0).
Included in this release we have two new features:
- Position captions at the top or bottom of the slide to ensure closed caption visibility and prevent the obstruction of critical course content.
- Customize the foreground and background colors of closed captions to complement your course design and maintain contrast accessibility.
All you need to do is update Storyline 360 in your Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let us know if you have any questions by reaching out to our Support Engineers directly.
Have a great day!
Hi Anna, and thanks for reaching out!
To make closed captions easier to read, you have the option to increase the captions font size up to 200% in the modern player.
We're currently tracking two additional feature requests:
- Ability to Customize Closed Caption Colors
- Ability to Change Closed Caption Placement
We appreciate your feedback and encourage you to submit a feature request if there are other features you would like to see added. In the meantime, we'll be sure to keep this discussion up to date on our progress!
Thank you. Just did this today. I knew there had to be a way to do it, and I forgot about that feature in the player.
