I have two needs for having access to Rise source files:
1. After finishing a project for a client, we typically deliver all published files and all source files to the client, whether or not they have the software to do anything with the source files. 2. When a contractor works on a project with us, we need delivery of their source files at the end of the project, and often during the project as well. We usually use dropbox for this shared access or transfer.
You will be able to transfer the Rise course to another user who has Rise. (We are working on this feature now.)
The source files will all be in the export package. (Images, videos, etc.) And of course you can use dropbox or any other means to share the files you have uploaded.
For "source files", I'm referring to the entire Rise development package, similar to a .story file in Storyline. A client may not have Articulate 360 at the time we deliver files to them, but I need to be able to provide the entire source package at the end of our engagement in case they either (a) get Articulate 360 in the future and want to make edits, or (b) hire another firm or contractor who has Articulate 360 to make edits. So it's not necessarily an immediate transfer to another Rise account, but a way to "store" a Rise course for potential future development or edits. Is this what will be included in the export package?
Dawn, if you export to No LMS- Web only, it gives you the folder with all the (uneditable) files, however I noticed these can be inserted as a web object in SL from the content folder.
Thanks Adam. That definitely adds some complexity. In a way, it's better for my business because it ties a company to me pretty much indefinitely, but it creates several difficulties.
1. It requires me to keep every course we've ever developed "just in case" a client ever needs edits (if so, I'm hoping there will be great organizational features that allow us to archive courses or to group courses by client, etc. and that there are no storage limits in Articulate 360 accounts.
2. As there are staffing changes, re-organizations, or just regular passage of time at client companies, it requires "someone" at that company to always know where a course came from. As much as I would like to think that everyone knows my name, companies are large and complex and folks don't always know which vendor provided which courses. Right now, if they have a Storyline course and the associated .story file, they just need to find someone with a Storyline license to make edits. But with Rise, they need to track back to the vendor or, in some cases, the freelancer, who created the course.
It would be beneficial to have a way to "park" Rise courses offline.
As an extension to this discussion, it would be even nicer if the content created in Rise could be imported into Storyline! Even if it was just as a place-holder, this would save time and potentially solve a number of content storage and back-up issues.
I know my request is a pretty a tall order, but hey, a guy can dream, right? ;)
I'd like the opposite in terms of functionality, Mark... the ability to import slides from Storyline into Rise. I have a lot of richly animated slides in Storyline, and I'd like to add them as videos into Rise. Right now, I have to go through the whole process of recording them through Replay and then adding them from Replay to Rise. Would love the ability to directly publish a Storyline slide to Articulate 360 to use as an asset. Not asking for Storyline interactions or anything -- just a single slide with audio, graphics, and animations.
Always dream Mark! It's how we probably ended up with such a cool tool like Rise to begin with...
Now have you tried linking Rise content into Storyline? I don't know about importing but you should be able to insert it as web object. I'm not entirely sure what that would look like in terms of responsive and how it would behave - so maybe you could share a bit more about the "why" behind this set up and we can get that into the hands of our Developers to tinker with.
That is something a few folks have mentioned and I know our team is looking at what that would mean in terms of keeping it truly responsive. So no news yet...but stay tuned and once we've got additional information to share we'll be certain to do so.
I love the idea of using Rise to create short, multimedia-based interactive job aids that can also be tracked in our LMS and easily accessed from any device. I think we're going to be using it a lot for this kind of thing...
Would you consider a block so users can enter and print everything that they entered in that field? For either an option in the Quiz section or just to go with/after a statement or text.
Great idea - can you share a bit more about what that would look like for you and how you'd expect to utilize it? I can certainly pass this along - and you can also always submit feature requests here.
Our company is growing so quickly we need a way for new business leaders to learn our systems, but we want them to apply critical thinking.
I really like the look of Rise and was able to put it all together except a way for them to type their thoughts. I had to go back to Storyline so I could use the ‘Freeform’ style quiz question.
Here is a link to what I did before I decided to scrap it. I think you will see where I wanted an open field answer. https://rise.articulate.com/share/xEK2L
I see ENORMOUS potential here for my sales training. Short, sharp "refresher" courses for guys that are online all the time for other tools, on phones. Am loving the responsive behaviour, and look and feel. Going to play with this a lot to see what can be done. Microcourses become a reality. :)
Sounds great Adam! Today I had a meeting with one of my clients who wants to share short peaces of information with his customers and get their feedback. I advised him to use Rise in combination with a QR code. He loved the idea, but didn't like the 'start' button on the first slide.
Is it possible to add a feature to show the button or not?
I tried to add an example of using the QR code but unfortunately I got an error.

What happens if a client wants the original "file"? Will it be possible to keep/access a copy of the original Rise project offline?
I was just about to ask this question, Veronica!

Thanks Adam, that will be useful.

Hey Dawn - since Rise is a web app, there's no sense of a single ".rise" source file.
So the way it would work is the course would simply live in your account until you're ready to transfer it to another account.

Excellent! Thanks for the reply, Ashley!

Hey Kristi -

Hi Ashley,
Sure. I did send a request for the feature.
Our company is growing so quickly we need a way for new business leaders to learn our systems, but we want them to apply critical thinking.

Great job Articulate.
Hi Kristi,
Thanks - that link didn't work for me, so perhaps you removed the Rise course?
If you submitted the feature, that's a great way to have it documented and we'll continue to keep folks posted here.
Thanks for the very kind words on Rise, Bruce. We're very proud. And we're just getting started!
What is the difference between Storyline 360, Storyline 3, and Rise?
Rise is a fully responsive authoring tool, interactions are form based. The tool is not slide based and has vertical and horizontal scrolling.
Storyline 360 has a brand new HTML6 engine that is so much better than SL2 as well as Dials and other new features.
Thankyou Phil
We plan on using it for job aids but the "Start Course" button has confused a few people already. Mostly the "Course" part.
That's great John! We are working on a feature so you can change all the text labels in the UI.
