Slight off white border - inside edge of Storyline 360 Player
Hi there, quick question. I'm using Storyline 360, and I'm noticing a slight off white pixel border abound a dark photo background. I've tried different things, and just can't seem to get rid of it. The border - off white/grey in color - is very slight - perhaps only a pixel or two. There are times that the border is on all 4 sides of the background, and with others, it's just on just the left and/or right. This photo shows the border (which is one the inside edge of the player) on the left side of the background image.
Thoughts? - Thanks in advance!
Hi All,
I am experiencing a similar white line at the bottom of my activity when I export the file to review and upload it to my Rise course. I was not experiencing this with this file prior to updating to the most recent version of Storyline 360. Is there something in the new version that broke the fix Ashley mentioned 5 months ago?
Note: in the attached screenshot I've set it up so the rise block and storyline file both have the same color background, that's why the line appears to be in the middle rather than the bottom.
Update: I tried importing the course into a clean new storyline file and exporting it again and the line seems to have gone away.
Hi there, Lauren!
I'm sorry you ran into that white line on the latest update, and appreciate you keeping us in the loop with your findings.
Since importing the slides into a new Storyline file helped, it's possible there was a corrupt asset. While it's tough to nail down the source of corruption, these tips can help mitigate the risk in the future!
Please let me know if the line reappears. We can always have our support team take a look at the .story file as well!
Hi there, I am also experiencing this issue.
It is almost like there is a 1px outline inside the frame of the player that covers everything but the first object on the timeline.
It doesn't make a difference if an image, shape or video file is snapped to the edge of the "artboard" or if extended off the main page. It isn't visible in storyline either in the work area or preview only in review. This is effecting google chrome and IE.
Hi Jessica,
This bug should've been fixed in earlier versions of both Storyline 360 and Storyline 3. If you're continuing to experience this issue, feel free to share your file with our Support team, and they'll be able to take a closer look to help troubleshoot in case it's crept back in!
Hello,
I am still have this issue. See image below. This is published in the LMS. I will also send my file.
Hi Nicole,
Thanks for sharing your file in a support case! I see my teammate, Ronaziel, published it in the latest version of Storyline 360 and tested the course in SCORM Cloud.
Since we could not replicate the issue, feel free to reply back to her additional questions for further guidance!
Hi,
Like the rest, I'm also experiencing this issue. However, I noticed that this has been lingering around for 2 years now. Kindly advise if this has been fixed and / what is the solution for it?
From my side, I have already done the few things I could think of but to no avail. I have:
- Made sure the background image is fixed to the border perfectly.
- When that failed, I've enlarged the background image where it goes beyond the border.
- That didn't work either, so I have changed the artboard background colour to black #000000.
None of these helped and I am desperate.
Please help!
Hello Elvin,
Thanks for reaching out, and I'm sorry to hear you're still facing a similar issue. It sounds like you've gone through quite a few testing steps on your end, so from here, I'd like to enlist our support engineers to step in.
You should have received an email from me confirming that I've opened a support case on your behalf. Feel free to upload your file with the link in the email I sent, and someone will reach out with a next step!
Hello. I have created some animated MP4s and brought them in as graphic elements in Storyline. When I preview the slide, a white border appears around part of the video. Because of the placement of the video element, it is obvious where the break between video and slide is. How can I remove this white border?
Hello Jay!
Looks like the one of the objects in your background still has its Shape Outline. Here's a screenshot of two black squares in a slide, with one that has a white shape outline:
To remove the Shape Outline, try clicking on the shape and then selecting this option:

Let me know if this works for you!
Hi! So I read through these comments and not seeing my exact situation but it is similar...Attaching a screenshot. It is a very small white "edge" between the image and the attached border (3pt border/outline). I have no extras on my image like a shadow. I wanted to blue border/outline to sit up against the image 100%.
What is happening or how can I make this go away?Hi Gerri!
Sorry to hear you've run into this setback! Thanks for sharing the screenshot!
After testing this on my end in the current version of Storyline 360, I was able to replicate the same behavior. I can confirm we have this logged as a bug in Storyline 360. I've linked this discussion to the bug report and will share updates as soon as a fix is in place.
In the meantime, as a workaround, we suggest adding a background shape behind your image instead of the border/outline.
Thank you for your patience. Sorry if this has been slowing you down!
