After adding a character to your Storyline 360 course, you can quickly change its expression, pose, perspective, or crop without deleting and reinserting it. You can even swap out one character for another and maintain all its attributes.

    Use the Character Tools—Design tab on the ribbon to edit illustrated characters.
  2. Use the buttons in the Styles group to change the character, expression, pose, and perspective.

    • Expression: Use this drop-down to quickly change the character’s expression. All other attributes will remain the same.
    • Pose: Use this drop-down to switch to a different pose. All other attributes will remain the same.
