Numbered markers over 9 in a Rise Labeled Graphic?
While I understand that a development team simply cannot address every single change request, I find it peculiar than in a world of AI, where companies like Articulate are championing the time saving benefits of nascent technology, people are still being advised to "workaround" a relatively basic issue like this by using Storyline.
As powerful as Storyline unquestionably is for bespoke design, an instructional designer needs to be designing instructionally out of the box where at all possible - not spending time "developing" interactions because of spurious limitations in the usually more convenient Rise. Storyline is great for truly novel interactions - but they are, normally, the exception rather than the rule for most.
The instructional design here is in the selecting of a hotspot screen with, say, 12 click events (though that, admittedly, seems a lot) to convey information in an engaging way. Having to go to Storyline and build it from scratch is not instructional design. It's interaction development and it's hardly justifiable when Rise can technically do what is basically a simple request with a few tweaks to the engine.
