Text-to-speech editor showing wrong text
Hi Everyone,
I have some great news to share!
We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Build 3.126.38052.0, we’ve included essential fixes. One of the bugs we’ve fixed is:
- Closed captions for AI text-to-speech weren't updated after the narration was edited
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let us know if you have any questions about this update or the issue you reported.
StevenBenassi I was working with the standard TTS tool. My files are stored in OneDrive.
It seemed to be affecting slides that I had created by duplication. Somehow I think it was retaining text from the slide that I had duplicated. I finished what I needed to do with the file, so I don't plan to continue trying to figure it out. Thank you for the response.
Thanks for the update, EmmaGirton!
If this happens again, please feel free to reach out!
I have same issue, the text to speech is showing wrong old text even different from the audio.
Hi Noura,
Sorry to hear that you're also experiencing this issue with Text-to-Speech in Storyline.
As I mentioned to EmmaGirton, this behavior can arise when authoring .story files directly from a network or shared drive. Can you confirm that your project files are stored on your local hard drive?
If you're already working locally, please try repairing your Storyline installation. However, if that doesn't improve the issue, we're happy to check your affected .story file to see if something else could be getting in the way. Do you mind uploading a copy here or through a support case?
Hi EmmaGirton,
Thanks for sharing the additional context.
I can confirm that we have this behavior logged as a bug in Storyline. This bug causes Text-to-Speech scripts to revert to the original script in a duplicated Slide.
I've included your voice in the bug report that's being tracked, so we can notify you as soon as a fix is ready.
As a workaround, we suggest:
- Create a duplicate of the Slide as you normally would.
- On the duplicate slide, delete the Text-to-Speech object.
- From the original slide, copy the Text-to-Speech object.
- Paste it onto the duplicate slide.
- Edit the script on the duplicate slide's Text-to-Speech object as needed.
Thank you for your patience. I'm sorry if this slowed you down!
Please add me to the list of those notified when this is fixed. My situation matches this exactly.
Hi BrendtWaters,
Thanks for letting us know that you're experiencing this issue as well. We'll update you as soon as we have more to share!
I have the exact same issue.
Your workaround doesn't work for me. It still shows the wrong (old) text in the TTS editing window.
When can we expect a fix?Hi MarcelGer,
I'm sorry to hear that you've also been affected by this issue!
I'm happy to share that we've shipped a fix for this bug in Storyline version 3.126.38052.0.
Please let us know if you're still having trouble after updating your Storyline installation.
