Search (Ctrl+F) in 360 degree image interactions
May I request adding the ability to use text searching inside a 360 image? Currently, for my VR-lite courses, I cannot search for a string of text in the marker/hotspot popups inside the 360 interactions.
Thanks.

Hey CarlFink1,
Thanks for the feedback on how we can improve 360-degree image authoring in Storyline.
I can see the value in having this functionality, especially if you're working with large amounts of Markers and Hotspots.
Can you share how you're working around this limitation today, and how many extra steps the process adds to your workflow?
Hi, StevenBenassi,
Is there any particular reason I got four emails notifying me of your reply? Did you maybe edit your reply three times?
Working around it? The only way is to literally read every single marker and hotspot text label. I suppose I could unzip the story file and read the XML, but I doubt that would save time.
The extra steps can be as high as "one per object in the 360 interactions plus several to navigate to each slide and open the interaction, plus navigating within it to every hotspot and marker."
Hey CarlFink1,
Thanks for following up.
Sorry for the extra emails. I only recall making one edit to my post, so I'm not sure what may have triggered the additional notifications. If the duplicates continue, adjusting your notification settings within your community profile may help.
Also, manually searching through Marker/Hotspot text does sound laborious. I understand the need for a more efficient process, and we'll be sure to notify you if we release a future update that helps.
