Sluggish/slow performance of Storyline (lags and freezes)
Hi there,
first of all, I would like to clarify that I have read the two existing discussions regarding the sluggish nature of the Storyline, but I have not been able to find a solution for mysel...
Hi everyone!
I'm happy to share that today we just shipped 64-bit Storyline 360!
To use 64-bit Storyline 360, make sure to update your Articulate 360 desktop app, then click the Install button next to the Storyline 360 app with the 64-bit and beta labels. The Install button will change to an Open button when the installation is complete.
Since this version is in beta, we'd love for you to test it out and share your feedback and experience with us by replying to this discussion.
I have experienced performance issues similar tot he original poster. I currently have both SL1 and SL2 installed. SL2 runs extremely well. Unfortunately I have certain clients who wish to maintain their own courses after initial development and who do not wish to upgrade to SL2. So whenever I have to use SL1 I find experience incredibly slow performance during development
Here is an example of a typical problem scenario
- I click an element, wait 3 seconds until element registers as selected,
- I move the mouse, wait 3 seconds for element to begin moving,
- I curse as element ends up someplace totally random because the release event on my mouse never triggered when I "let go of" the item,
- I try opening the inconveniently hidden position dialog box to type in the location instead,
- I scream as SL crashes for the 4th time that day
I guess my only option is to reinstall SL1 (again!!) and then manually change the "Opens With ..." setting in Windows to reset the default to SL2.
