Hey Articulate/Community, a post from 2018 was closed on this very topic. Did it ever make it to a feature request? Yeah I know, do a Storyline Block "for now" but... I don't think we want a lot, but my #1 request is untethering the scroll box from it's fixed position to the marker. I think a simple drag UX is all that's needed. When you so do, a connector line or pointer something like a callout shape to still "tie" the box to the marker appears. Maybe offer some line or pointer options like solid, dotted, colors, whatever.
Hi Chris is this so that the text box doesn't cover up parts of the image unexpectedly? I ran into the same issue, I assume this is what led to your post.
Yes, Phil, exactly. I have an image where the markers have to be somewhat bunched up close to each other, and while the scroll boxes don’t cover the other markers they’re just obscuring parts of the image. Further, with the markers rather close to each other, navigating with the arrows that are in the scroll box from marker to marker is a clumsy UI for the learner.
