Straight Lines
Hello,
I find it extremely hard to create straight lines/arrows is there an easier way to do this?
i.e. holding shift like other programs does not work.
Thanks!
Hi John,
Yes of course, this is standard behavior in the most basic of applications and it should be implemented in Storyline. Hard to believe that the original post above is 4 years old and the problem persists.
Hello JC! We released object editing enhancements in November, and they include features to help with alignment and precise rotation of objects. Ashley mentioned the new visual cues you'll get when drawing objects, and here's what that should look like for you in Storyline 360 when drawing a regular line:
You're using the freeform tool, however, and I see that those visual cues are not activated. So that we can better understand your need, can you describe for our product development team how you're using the freeform tool? For example, "It's better for me to use the freeform tool than a standard shape, or a group of straight lines because..." I want to be sure we understand the pain point!
Thanks!
That's right. Testing storyline 360 and still disappointed over the lack of this very basic behavior.
