Screen Recording Won't insert as step by step in Storyline 3
I am trying to insert a step-by-step video of MS word into my SL3 project. It successfully records the video and I can insert the video, however, when I try to insert it as a step-by-step view mode only a single slide (which is of the last click) appears in the new scene. Incidentally, when I try to exit the screen recording the escape button won't work until I shrink MS Word and that's the only screenshot that appears in my scene.
Hi, Sarah.
Thank you for reaching out!
Are you able to share the .story file either here or privately through this link? I'm happy to take a look and help you troubleshoot.
Hello Maria. Storyline will not record the screen for anything I do in MS Word from any Storyline project. I can record from any other software or any other screen.
Attached is a sample file. Form Storyline, I chose Record your screen with a Word doc open. During the recording, I clicked around in the Word doc and typed text, etc. When I hit the Esc button, nothing happened. Then, I closed the Word doc and clicked around on the web browser page that was open behind it. From here, when I selected the Esc button, the recording ends. As you can see in the attached file, none of the clicks I did in Word were recorded. The only clicks that were recorded are the ones I did after I closed Word doc.
In addition to not being able to record Word, I cannot publish my courses to Word. When I choose the Word tab, from the Publish window and then select the Publish button, the Publish Successful window immediately pops up. The status bar that I usually see does not display first. When I select the View Document button nothing happens and when I select the Open button, a Word file isn't in the folder.
