Hi, has anyone else run into this issue?
I have two layers, both have objects with exit animations, I pause their timelines before we reach those exit animations. When I click a button to show the other layer, whilst one is already open, it pauses both of them.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Just a quick update to say that this issue has been resolved in Storyline 360.
This fix alone, for me, is almost a reason to upgrade.
Well done team! :)
Hi - was there ever an update on this? I'm assuming no fix was implemented as I've experienced this issue today.
Argh. It's a pretty major bug, isn't it? Just encountered it today and I can't implement a workaround. So frustrating.
For those looking for a work around...
A rather simple fix for this particular issue is to simply add a trigger for each paused layer to resume immediately after the pausing trigger. I've fixed Cheifly's original code with a single trigger.
Hope this helps until!
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this bug?
Gary, do you have a short example you could share with this issue?
Hi,
I am also facing this issue.
When you pause the timeline on a single layer, it pauses all other layers.
Basically, the pause layer does not work, it just pauses everything.
Does anyone know if this is a known bug?
Many thanks,
Elliot
Hello Elliot!
Do you have a .story file you could share here with us?
Please also confirm that you are working locally as described here. Is this only happening with one file, or have you seen it happen with other files?
Hi Emily,
I have attached a short example to this reply.
So we have layer 1 and 2, which both have animating elements on them. We also have a third layer which starts the animations by showing the layers.
We have a trigger on layer 2 which says, "after 5 seconds, pause this timeline". This is where the issue is appearing. Interestingly, on some investigation it appears that if the pause is triggered via a button, the whole thing works perfectly.
Working locally vs off a network has not made even the slightest difference to my issue, it was worth trying though.
Hi Emily and Gary,
Yes it's the same as above when the timeline is paused via an actual time.
Cheers Gary,
Elliot
