I've found the Content Library images in Rise but not the characters. I tried searching for characters, and using a character's name, but no luck. Were the characters included when the Content Library was made accessible in Rise?
Are there plans to include Characters in Rise? Previous threads indicated it was coming but only see the photos and illustrations part of Content Library in Rise currently.
A possible solution for those who need characters in Rise is to resize them to a large size within SL360 and then right click on the character and save the file as a TIF (PNG, for some reason includes artifacts). Initially I questioned the need for characters in Rise, but then got a little creative and realized they make perfect sense within certain contexts. My hope is these will be much easier to insert in the near future.
Hi - does anyone have any tips on how to find avatars in the Content Library for insertion into a "Quote on Image" block? I tried using the search term "avatar", which didn't seem to focus the search on circular profile photos of people/avatars. -- many thanks
Those "avatars" are images you have to upload into Rise. You can get them from SL360 by selecting the character and exporting them out. Once you have your character image you'll have to crop them using Photoshop or some other editor so you get a tight head shot. Then you can upload your avatar to Rise.
It sounds like having circular versions of Storyline 360 characters in Rise would improve your authoring experience. Would you be open to logging a feature request?
Hi all, this is an old post and I see characters are still not integrated into Rise. I thought this was on the radar a while back seems like the can keeps getting pushed down the road. I will use the workaround by exporting image poses from SL and importing them.
Be great if this was implemented as a Christmas present to all Articulate users.
When using my subscription images in Rise, does Rise store them anywhere for access later or do I need to retain them for later use when I update the course?
It sounds like you're referring to images from Content Library 360, is that right?
Any image you add to your Rise course from Content Library 360 will remain in the course until you manually change it. You'll also find a copy of each image file in the zipped published output folder, so that's another easy way to retrieve those images.
Sorry, I attempted to say it more clearly and I did not succeed. What I meant to ask was images, any images, for example, getti images that I use in my Rise courses, are they stored anywhere?
While Rise 360 doesn't store your images in a cloud-based media library, you can find any image you used in a course in the zipped published output folder. I would also recommend keeping a folder of those images on your hard drive for easy access when you need to update the course later.
Dear Articulate team, Do you have any timeline to include these features and also the roadmap which published in your site to be included to Rise. For last 3 years there are no update /features to the tools, instead some content integrated as features which are not usable by most of the customer/ content producer?

Hi Michele - It is photos and illustrations as you can see here.
Check out Adam's post and video here.

Icons and Characters are still on the radar, but I do not have a timeline to provide Michele.

Thanks, Jose for sharing that here.
I'd love to see some more examples of the context and how you're using the characters in Rise!

Hi Leia,
As I shared above, it is a feature that is still on our radar, but we do not have a timeline to provide at this time.

Ahhh - ok I understand. Thanks Jose... a bit more work than I was hoping for (...:-)) but feasible nonetheless.
Maybe the content library will someday include circular versions of the SL360 characters for popping into blocks.
Cheers,
Hi Jennifer,
I'm glad Jose was able to help here.

Looks like I jumped the gun, character are supported in the interactive scenario block. Good work.
Thanks, Alex!

Hi LaVon!

Let me know if that answers your question!

That is a great answer. Never thought of that.
Thank you, Alyssa.

Hi Ashley - any chance (now 4 years on) that this feature is available in Rise...?
Hi Philip, thanks for checking in. No, this isn't a feature yet in Rise 360. This is our current roadmap at this time.

Hello, this was originally slated for 2017. When can we expect this feature?
