Storyline - Course duration is not working

Hi!
The duration of the course I'm working on, in Storyline 360, does not show the "estimated" time the course should be. It is set to 'Calculate automatically' and the cell beside it is greyed out and it says is 8 minutes, which is not correct.

I saw another message similar to mine but it's from 7 years ago and I didn't understand the resolution.

Can anybody help?

  • Hello Dália,

    Happy to help!

    Please note that Storyline’s estimated duration is just that: an estimate. The duration of a specific slide or an entire course can vary depending on the amount of interactivity, layers, branching scenarios, and other features you’ve added.  There's no way to get the figure exactly correct. 

    With that being said, I'll be glad to take a look at your project file to see how off the estimate is. Would you be willing to share a copy of your project file here or in private by opening a support case for testing? We'll delete it when we're done!
