Svg files for SL360 on the roadmap?
Hi, wonder if and when you are planning to let SL360 support svg images?
Send in a feature request and have anyone else who would like the feature to do so also. The more honest voices the better. Include a sentence or two business case. Then pray :)
Let's see, Captivate has had this for what, three or four years already . . . ?
Feature request submitted ;-)
Fingers crossedFeature request submitted. Fingers crossed our requests are heard and they move forward with this ASAP!
Feature Request submitted. Fingers and toes crossed!
Hi Luke!
We understand the need for this. This is a hot topic that our team is looking into. I don't have anything to share publicly but when I do, I'll report back to this discussion.
We appreciate everyone taking the time to share what's important to them when creating in Storyline!
Not to be rude, but there are 10 posts from "staff" saying they are considering this, in some form. Is the statement, "We appreciate everyone taking the time to share whats important" just a canned response? Two years now... I do not *feel* like this is really being given any thought by Articulate.
There are features that people have been asking for for years, like the "Jump to position in Timeline" already asked 7 years ago and their answer is always the same...
+1. Please implement native support for importing SVG graphics without the Powerpoint to Articulate step.
+1 Please add this to your roadmap.
I have not seen or been notified of any updates yet?
Another 6 months past and no word.
This is very poor customer engagement.
We really need SVG import directly in SL360. Please fix it.
It has been over two years since the original post, the only real solution I have found is to build any course that heavily uses SVG's in captivate instead, as that has had support for some time. You can even edit colours and sizes on the fly of SVG's within a course.
Articulate really need to address this as I am less and less turning to their toolset.
The issue with Captivate is that it has not been updated in a long time and concerns about its future....over 300 of our digital learning content creators have moved this year from Captivate to Storyline only.
Hello Mikael and Luke,
We took a step in the direction to fill this need with the following ability:
Importing SVG Images from PowerPoint
The ability to natively use SVGs in Storyline is still a feature that we are tracking and this conversation is linked to the report so that we can share updates with you here.
When do you think it works to import native? We will start a 3 year project. I want to use Storyline 360 but the project requires us to import lots of SVG files. Solving it via PowerPoint would be time consuming. If I understand correctly, do colors change when we import from PowerPoint to SL360?
Is there no other way to import vector images so they keep in quality?
Hi Leslie,
I'm glad there is something, but this solution doesn't work well. Some of the components don't display after import.I am experiencing the same issue as Dave. Many SVG components do not display at all after importing them from a PowerPoint. If they do end up displaying, many times it looks something like this. The only way I am able to import an SVG from PowerPoint into Articulate 360 Storyline is if the SVG is only using one layer and solid colours (no gradients). This makes importing SVG files from PowerPoint to Storyline much less valuable as it stands now.
Except if you don't have office 365 you can't use this feature, because that's the only version of PowerPoint that supports SVG files.
Also this link doesn't work.
