Storyline 360: Answering 360° Images FAQs
Use 360° images to create immersive learning experiences. We’ve collected the most frequently asked questions about the feature below.
And starting with the November 2021 update, 360° images support right-to-left languages.
Are 360° images available in Content Library 360?
Content Library 360 doesn’t support 360° images. If you need panoramic images, visit this article to learn where to find them and how to create your own.
How do slide objects outside of 360° images work with 360° images?
Slide objects placed over a 360° image stay in the same position as you navigate the interaction, as shown below. Use a third-party panorama editor like Photoshop to edit your 360° image before importing it into Storyline 360.
Are 360° videos supported?
No, but you can always share your interest in 360° video support by submitting a feature request.
Are 3D models supported?
No, but you can embed the 3D model as a web object.
Is virtual reality (VR) supported?
No, but you can always share your interest in VR support by submitting a feature request.
Are panoramas taken with an Apple device supported?
An Apple device’s camera with panoramic mode enabled captures 240° cylindrical panoramas. You can insert such images into Storyline 360, but they won’t render correctly. For the best results, use 360° equirectangular panoramas with a 2:1 aspect ratio.
How many 360° images can I have in a project?
There’s no limit to the number of 360° images you can add to a project.
Can I customize the interactive elements?
Yes, there are various customization options for markers and hotspots. Visit these user guides for details:
How do I disable the Next button until all markers are clicked?
David Anderson covers several ways to make sure learners view all 360° image markers before clicking the Next button in this video tutorial.
Can I add a trigger to adjust the view of my 360° image?
There isn’t a specific trigger that will change the view of your interaction. For a list of available actions, see the screenshot below. You can, however, add the same 360° image to a new slide or layer with a different initial view, then add a trigger to jump to that slide or layer.
Yes, check out the list below to learn about each enhancement for 360° images and when they shipped.
January 2022
Buttons: Add buttons to marker and hotspot labels in 360° images so learners can trigger specific actions, such as launching a website or downloading a document.
Progress-Tracking Exclusions: Exclude specific markers and hotspots from progress tracking in 360° images to capture more accurate results. Learn more.
November 2021
Tooltips: Display tooltips when learners hover over markers and hotspots in 360° interactions so learners know what to expect before they click.
October 2021
Accessibility: Empower all learners to have the same engaging experience with built-in accessibility features for 360° images. Learn more.
We love questions! Just open a support case, and we’ll get right back to you with an answer.

Use 360° images to create immersive learning experiences. We’ve collected the most frequently asked questions about the feature below.
And starting with the November 2021 update, 360° images support right-to-left languages.
\n
Are 360° images available in Content Library 360?
\n
Content Library 360 doesn’t support 360° images. If you need panoramic images, visit this article to learn where to find them and how to create your own.
\n
How do slide objects outside of 360° images work with 360° images?
