Storyline quick access toolbar

Hi Connie,

Was the tool bar moved or just there but empty of quick access things? I know I've minimized it by mistake before. Here are directions on how to work within the Quick Access toolbar set up.

thanks so much! It was there, however, I was trying to go FROM the toolbar to add buttons instead of the other way around. DOAH!

It's SO convenient to have the often used buttons right there!

thanks again.

Glad you found it!

Hi Experts! I'm having a different quick access toolbar problem: I can't seem to customize it at all! I've got Storyline 2, Update 5: 1505.515.

When I drop down the menu that should allow me to customize the toolbar, I get this:

...which doesn't allow me to do anything but toggle the three available options, whereas in most programs, such as PowerPoint, I get a lot more, specifically, a "More Commands..." option:

Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi Greg,

Welcome to the E-Learning forums! You are welcome to share thoughts like that here, but the best course of action is to submit a feature request as those go to our product development team. 

Let us know if you need anything else as you continue to work in Storyline! 

Hey Ashley,

I've had this problem too, and no, I had not accidentally minimised it. My customised quick access bar just went away, and all that was there were the 3 default items (save, undo, redo).

I just realised though that the last time it happened was last week, and I think it coincided with SL's latest update.

Is it possible to find out whether the update resets it?

Thanks!

Hi Veronica,

I haven't seen it reset it on my system - especially if you haven't actually customized it but are just seeing the standard options. You could look at going through the repair in the event that something occurred during the update process. If you follow the steps to add elements to it, does it reappear then? 

Hey Ashley,

It's really weird. My custom quick access bar disappeared on me a couple of days ago. I am not certain it was right after the update, so I can't really say with any certainty that the update caused the problem.

i only customised my quick access bar for the first time a few months ago and in that time this has happened maybe three times. It doesn't totally disappear, it just reverts to the default bar with the the items for no apparent reason. 

So yes, today I recustomised it, and so far so good. I'll post again if anything changes. 

Thanks Ashley

Thanks Veronica and definitely keep us posted on if it occurs again. 

Ashley, et. al - 

Every once in a while my customized quick access toolbar "resets" in SL.  I noticed this occasionally in SL 1, but hadn't seen it happen SL 2 until this morning.  

I have 2 instances of SL open.  I'd been working with both files yesterday, and in both files the quick access toolbar was my customized version.  When I opened both files this morning, one file maintained my customized quick access toolbar, but in the other file, the quick access toolbar has reset to the default.  

I know for a fact that the toolbar in the second file was working just last night...  this morning it isn't.  And I have not updated my version of SL2 recently.  I'm using version 7:1509.1408

Thanks for any help/guidance!
