Story view and scenes

Hello All! When I save my presentation, the slides go from nice and lined on the right to more of a story view. So they are either really small or I have to use the scroll bar at the bottom. Is there a way to put it back to show the slides lined up vertically?  

p.s. I am very new, so I may not be saying this correctly.

    Hello, these slides will only be lined up vertically because the navigation to them is linked up from the 1.1 slide.

  • Hello Loralyn,

    Looks like you've received great assistance from Sandeep! 

    Story view gives you a quick overview of how the navigation in your course works. Having all of your slides lined up means that the navigation is linear, while a branching view means that your course has branches that can take learners to different parts of the course. Here's more information on how to use Story View in Storyline 360: 

    Let me know if you have any questions! 

  • FYI: You can adjust the width of the Scenes panel.

    Another option: undock it (that is, open it in a separate window). Then you could adjust the panel-window to whatever size works best to show the slides. 

    You can undock any panel by clicking the double-window icon in the upper right. 

    Bonus tip: There's a Redock All Windows button in the View ribbon. That pulls all undocked panels back into the main Storyline window. It can be very handy--especially if you've got a super-busy screen, and you're not sure where one of the panels is.

  • Thank you all! I see what you are saying, but is there a way to put it back so that the slides display vertically? (without taking out the navigation)  I would like to be able to see them that way.

      .... but is there a way to put it back so that the slides display vertically? (without taking out the navigation)  I would like to be able to see them that way. 

      The Scenes panel and StoryView are programmed to indicate the navigation. If you're navigation isn't linear, there's no way to make the slides appear in one long vertical line.
