I've created a text box, included 5 bullet points and I wanted to know if there is a workaround to be able to time those bullets separately? Right now I just create 5 separate text boxes and move them on the timeline. Too much work! Is there a simplier way to animate those 5 points, one at a time along with narration? Or, am I stuck doing it with the 5 separate text boxes?
extra info: I did choose Animation, Fade, by First Level Paragraph.
This is great to be able to adjust the timing for each bullet . I cant find this in 360, because In 360 I only see fade "By paragraph" which instead has bullets all fade in at the same interval. Can this be done in 360?
I'm using this on multiple text boxes on multiple pages and finding that when I publish to an LMS, some of the bullets seem to be cut off and are no longer in time with the audio. It seems to work great until I publish and upload to an LMS.
If you publish your project in a different format (web or Review 360), do you experience the same?
If not, it might be a good idea to rule out LMS issues by testing your course with SCORM Cloud. Check out this step-by-step article!
If you still see the same behavior in the other published formats or in SCORM Cloud, or if you need our help testing, the next step would be to open a support case here, so we can take a closer look at your project.

Hi Kim -
Yeah, you can do that Here's how:
Thank you!!! I knew their was an easier way. I wonder how many others create the extra 5 text boxes, etc.
YOU ROCK!!
Thank you!
Kim
Heheh, glad that was what you were looking for. We could probably do a better job drawing attention to that feature.
Awesome feature!!
Glad you found value in this older thread Kiana :) Thanks for popping in.
How might this be done in Articulate 2? We don't seem to have the ability to expand the text box in the timeline.
Hi Tech!
Same process in Storyline 2.
I put together a brief screen recording to demonstrate.
This is awesome! Thanks!

Never mind, I see the drop down arrow that shows this

Thank you so much. It was easier than I thought.
I can't believe I've been using Storyline for nearly a year and only just now realized I could do this. Better late than never!
Glad to hear that this thread was helpful to you, Lauren! It's never too late to level up your development skills in Storyline 360!
