Renumber scenes

Eureka! 🌟 I'm happy you were able to find the culprit. Thanks for letting me know how your sorted it out!

Amen. Just rebuild the project. Articulate should have fixed this long ago.

Checking in here 8 years later to see if this was fixed but alas. :( 

The story view is 100% unhelpful to the author (i understand no one else sees it) if the scenes are numbered in chronological order by when they were made, but that's not an order that has any relevance to the final product. Sometimes it's better to work backwards from the result you want, not from scene 1, going step-by-step forward. 

I added my comment here in hopes of re-awakening this topic and perhaps help push this onto a developer's desk so this can finally be fixed. I totally think this should be considered a bug, not a design feature. 

Hi, Organization & Staff Development.

I appreciate you sharing how this feature would benefit you!

You can take a look at our Storyline 360 feature roadmap here, which will show what's currently in planning or development (including Renumber Scenes). 

Let me know if you have additional questions!

What you can do is copy (ctrl + c) the scenes you want to renumber and move to the back, delete them and paste them back.

So copy, then delete the scences and then paste (ctrl + v) them.

Cut (ctrl + x) and paste doesn't work.

Copying and deleting then pasting this is the only solution I've found if you want to keep unorganised scenes neat and renumber them.

Just make sure you save the file first incase you bugger it up.  

:)

From the Home tab in Story View, you can use Index to change the number of your scenes. It's as simple as a dropdown menu to choose what number you would like to assign to any scene. Very helpful!

Thank you!!!

I have 4 scenes. 2 and 3 are swapped so it's 1,3,2,4. I clicked on 3 and right clicked "starting scene" then clicked 1 and selected "starting scene" and it renumbered the scenes to 1,2,3,4. This is the easiest solution I found. But it may not work if you have more than 2 slides to swap that come right after the first.
