Please add my name to this feature - we currently service 6 languages in one course by section. It would be a great user experience if the sidebar appeared collapsed and the user could expand only their language.
I've just been asked for the same functionality and can't believe its been an open request for over 3 years. Any updates - can this be done as a priority now?
Hey guys - i think it is quite obvious the call for this feature and the fact that it has been an open request for over three years says a lot. Is this actually on your roadmap given the number of requests on multiple threads around this very same topic? This is a critical user experience function that should be a high priority as opposed to some of the latest releases for Rise.
We are now four pages into this request. Unfortunately, every time someone replies with their thoughts, I receive an email that reminds me of the lack of responsiveness from Articulate. No, I won't turn off the reply because one day their might be good news :-)
It is frustrating to see how long requests like this go unaddressed. The requested feature is already a feature in Storyline 360 - which indicates that Articulate does see it as useful.
Maybe you can also tell us why corporate does not feel this addition is important enough to implement, even though users have been begging for it for four years. On the surface, it doesn't seem that this feature would be difficult to include. But there may be programming hurdles that aren't obvious to us. Thanks for the clarification!
We need this feature to improve the accessiblity for our learners. We've heard back from many neurodivergent learners who've shared the open menu not accessible and makes for a poor learning experience. Having an option to make a collapsed menu the default would be more accessible to all learners.

Agree- its obviously a much needed feature!

I want to jump in and reiterate how incredibly useful this feature would be.
Yes, please! +1 for this feature!
Hello,
Coming back to the first question of this thread:
Is it possible to have the menu launch with all of them collapsed rather than all open?
I still didn't find a way to do this.

+1, Please add this feature.

New to the group and I can immediately see the need for this feature. This should be a simple add. Please put this feature request on the roadmap.
This really is the most basic of requests and should have been implemented from day one.
Without doubt, this functionality needs to be added now.
Besides customers requesting this constantly, one of the main feedbacks from learners is that they found the menu system challenging.
I have had to resort to telling learners to collapse the menu manually in some cases. Embarrassing!
I have semi-got round the problem by embedding Storyline menus but it is messy, cumbersome and not acceptable to my current clients.
I am now having to look for alternative development tools as current client requests means Rise cannot be used.
did this ever get added? I didn't see any way to do it :(
Please, please, please add this feature!!!!

Our team would love this option as well!
+1 for this feature request.
I'm putting in my vote for this feature as well! A left-side menu that can be defaulted to collapsed mode would be great! :) Any updates?
I recognize this is an older post but I agree and I've submitted a feature request
I also would like to get updates about this feature request. I would like there to be an option that the Sidebar sections to appear collapsed.
FIVE YEARS and no progress on this BASIC feature.
Another Articulate fail.
+1
We also have a need for the menu to be automatically collapsed when the course is opened. Please consider this as another vote for that feature!
I also agree this is very desirable and I look forward to hearing about this in future releases
