Keep Articulate library character at a fixed point within 360 image navigation
Hello, I am working on an eLearning course on a simulated bank robbery to have learners practice going through the correct steps when navigating a robbery situation. I have 360 images of the teller POV from behind our teller line in one of our branches, and was going to use a character from the Articulate library as our "robber". However, I want the learner to be able to pan around the "teller line" and choose to interact with objects such as their computer, their drawer, etc, but that means that the character/robber stays fixed in the center of the screen as they pan around, rather than staying in his spot as they navigate the simulation. I have gone back and forth with Copilot and gotten a ton of wrong/impossible answers...surely I can't be the only person using a library character in tandem with a 360 image! Has anyone figured out a way to do this? I really feel like it shouldn't be this hard... I have images added of what it is looking like in practice. Any guidance on workarounds or ideas to code something are very welcome!3D Objects used in Drag and Drop
Hello Community, I would like to get some help working with imported 3D objects. All items were 3D images imported into Storyline. Here's the issue: Certain objects like the small hand tools, do not snap back to their original position. I need them to be able to return to their original position on the desk, floor, cabinet, etc. The broom and dust brush will snap back. I am using states to control the motion when the user drags an item. I'm just not sure why the hand tools aren't returning to their original position. I welcome all suggestions, even if they're not related to the topic I'm discussing. Thanks!Closed Caption issues in Preview Mode
Hello, When I am previewing my Storyline slides/scenes, sometimes the closed caption text does not appear. In addition, the CC button does not appear on some slides in the player. I have double & triple checked the captions in each slide as well as the player settings, but I am still encountering this problem. What could be the possible cause(s) for not seeing the closed captioning text & player button in preview mode?Please help! slide layer finishes before activity is completed
Please help. I am working on the attached slide. The intended interaction is... Click the picture watch the video check the boxes for the strategy observed. The check boxes provide immediate feedback (check or x). Issue, when the learner clicks the last correct answer the slide layer immediately closes and returns to the base slide before the learner can see the feedback of the last correct answer. I can not figure out the fix. Please help. I am also attaching the Review 360 link https://360.articulate.com/review/content/d3df2228-6e8f-47dd-ab25-0f25b25a9fe5/reviewAre There Limits on Vectors?
Hello! I've been working on a tiny project, it takes about ten to fifteen minutes to complete and is about 25 slides in total. I had some issues with the file breaking and when I export it sometimes it takes a long time to load certain slides. I was told via a co-worker that there were too many vectors and that I need to replace all my vectors with images. Is there a limit to how many vectors that we can use in a project? I have about 3-5 on each page, is that going to hurt the performance of the project? I ended up restarting my computer and replacing the background vectors with PNGs and it looks to be in working order now.Equation Builder and JAWS reading it as a button
Our 508 review team indicated JAWS is reading the LaTeX equation as a button, which is not 508 compliant. This is what I have: This is how it appears (correctly): This is how it appears in the focus order under Alt-Text After JAWS reads the alt-text, it verbalizes "Button." This is not 508 compliant per our review team, as the impaired learner expects it to act like a button and attempt to click it. Is there anything wrong here that can be fixed, so JAWS does not read the equation as a button? Thank you.Interactivity in Rise Custom Blocks
Hello Articulate: We are really looking forward to seeing Interactivity in the new Rise Custom Blocks. Can you advise when we might be seeing this? It would be great if the interactivity could include being able to click on an image or object to view callouts of text and/or images. One way to accomplish this would be to add the ability to display Storyline objects in the Custom blocks. Thanks and regards Alex Young TorontoReview 360: Use Comments to Give Feedback
While viewing a Review 360 item, use the sidebar to post feedback and participate in discussions along the way. Learn more about working with comments below. Read Comments Using the Comments Sidebar Using the Feedback Page Post Comments Inserting Emojis Tagging Other Reviewers Adding Attachments Annotating Screenshots (Beta) Edit Comments Delete Comments Resolve and Reopen Comments Export Comments to CSV and PDF Files Disable and Re-Enable Comments Read Comments All reviewers can view comments. You can respond to or otherwise interact with comments using the comments sidebar or the feedback page. Read on to learn about each option. Comments Sidebar Feedback Page Using the Comments Sidebar The comments sidebar is in the default view for Review 360 items. This view allows you to see course content and watch videos. The comments sidebar displays comments for the content that’s currently displayed on the screen. For Storyline and Studio courses, comments are tied to specific slides, so the comments you see in the sidebar change as you move from one slide to another. For Rise courses, comments are lesson-specific, so the comments in the sidebar change as you switch lessons. For video content, all comments display in the sidebar simultaneously, with the newest thread on top. To see a comment in context, click its hyperlinked timestamp to jump directly to that point in the video. Brilliant! Collapse or expand the comment sidebar by clicking the arrow in the upper right corner. Sometimes it’s helpful to collapse the sidebar to have more space to view the content, especially on small screens. Hover your mouse over the edge of the sidebar and click and drag it to adjust the size. Reviewers who sign in with an Articulate ID see helpful badges for unread comments. A blue dot appears next to individual unread comments in the sidebar, and a red badge with the total number of unread comments appears next to the feedback tab at the top of the screen. Mark comments as read by clicking them, replying to them, or using the More (...) icon in the top right corner of the screen to Mark All as Read. Using the Feedback Page Click the Feedback link on the top right to launch the feedback page. This page lets you see all comments for a Review 360 item on one screen. Each thread has a screenshot to show you exactly how the content looked when the first comment was posted. These screenshots let you see feedback in context so you know what changes are needed. Click the screenshots to zoom in and out. You can change how comments are sorted for Storyline, Studio, and Rise courses. Click the sorting dropdown on the top right of the first comment to toggle between slide/lesson order and chronological order. Tips: Video content always displays comments in chronological order, with the newest thread on top. Comments for deleted Storyline 360 slides display below a "Scene not found" section. Post Comments All reviewers can add comments, emojis, @mentions, and attachments, and annotate screenshots. The process is the same for both the review and feedback tabs. Commenting on a Review 360 item is easy. Place your cursor in a comment box or reply field, type your comment or paste text from your clipboard, then press Enter on your keyboard or click the Post button. If you change your mind, click Cancel. When you start a new discussion thread, a screenshot of the content as it currently appears is automatically generated and attached to your comment. If you’re watching a video, the screenshot is captured as soon as you start typing. You’ll see these screenshots on the feedback page. Reviewers who subscribe to all comments will receive email notifications for new comments you post. And when you reply to an existing thread, you’ll see a list of reviewers who will be notified of your comment below the text-entry field. Tip: If you aren’t signed in to Review 360 with an Articulate ID, you’ll be prompted to enter your email address when you click inside a comment field. This allows you to receive notifications when other reviewers reply to your comments. (If you have an Articulate account, you’ll be prompted to enter your password.) Inserting Emojis Give your comments more personality with emojis. If you’re using a device with an emoji keyboard, simply tap the emojis you want to add to your comments. Or, click the emoji icon in the comment field and select emojis from the list. Tagging Other Reviewers Direct your comments to specific reviewers by tagging them. Here are two ways to tag people. Type @ followed by the person’s name or email address. A list of reviewers will appear as you type. Select the person you want to tag from the list. Click the @mention icon in the comment field and choose a reviewer from the list that appears. Who’s included in the @mention pick list? Great question! Everyone who has already commented on the current item appears on the list. And if you’re a member of an Articulate 360 Teams account, all your team members also appear in the list. Adding Attachments Add attachments to comments to keep your team on the same page. Attach images, videos, audio tracks, and more! To add an attachment, click the paper clip icon in the comment field, then browse to the file you want to attach. To download an attachment, just click it and choose where you want to save it. To delete an attachment, hover over it and click the X that appears. (You can only delete attachments that you uploaded.) You can attach up to five files per comment. Learn more about attachments. Annotating Screenshots (Beta) When you want to provide more precise feedback, you can annotate the screenshot that’s included with your comment by starting a new thread discussion. Here’s how: Click the pen icon in the Comment field to take a screenshot. Use the tools in the toolbar at the top. Refer to the screenshot below and the table that follows for more information on each tool. Icon Function Grab Click and drag to reposition the toolbar. Draw Draw freeform lines and choose the stroke width. Rectangle Add rectangles to highlight words or regions and choose the outline width. Arrow Insert arrows to direct focus and adjust the line width as needed. Line Add straight lines and choose the line width. Text Add text for context and labels. Color Select an annotation color from the palette or enter a hex code, and then adjust the opacity as needed. To recolor an annotation: Select it and click the color icon. Clear annotations / Delete selection Remove all existing annotations to start over. To delete an annotation: Select it and click the delete icon or press Delete on your keyboard. Other actions available: Move: Click and drag an annotation to reposition it. Resize and rotate: Click and drag the handles on the selection box of an annotation to adjust the size and rotation. Type your comment, then press Enter on your keyboard or click the Post button. The comment includes an “Annotated screenshot” badge to let others know there’s additional information in the screenshot. Note: Annotated screenshots are not supported for video content. This feature is a beta release. We'd love to hear about your experience to help us determine if it’s solving the right problems. Share your feedback here. Edit Comments All reviewers can edit their own comments. Here’s how. Hover over your comment, click the drop-down arrow that appears, and choose Edit. Change the text, emojis, @mentions, and attachments as needed. See above for details. Press the Enter key or click the Post button to save your changes. Tip: If you don’t see a drop-down arrow when you hover over your comments, you’ll need to sign in to Review 360 with your Articulate ID or click inside a comment/reply field and enter your email address when prompted. Delete Comments All reviewers can delete their own comments. Hover over the comment you want to delete, click the drop-down arrow that appears, and choose Delete. Here are some tips for deleting comments: While all reviewers can delete their own comments, the content owner can delete any comment by any reviewer. When you delete the first comment in a discussion thread, the entire thread gets deleted. You can't restore deleted comments. If you need to refer to a comment later, try resolving it rather than deleting it. If you don’t see a drop-down arrow when you hover over comments, you’ll need to sign in to Review 360 with your Articulate ID or click inside a comment/reply field and enter your email address when prompted. Resolve and Reopen Comments Avoid confusion by resolving comments that have been addressed or are no longer relevant. Resolving Comments All reviewers can resolve comments. It’s easy! Hover over an individual comment or the first comment in a discussion thread, then click the checkmark icon that appears. Depending on your settings, the comment or thread will disappear or fade into the background. Tip: If you don’t see a checkmark icon when you hover over comments, you'll need to sign in to Review 360 with your Articulate ID or click inside a comment/reply field and enter your email address when prompted. Showing or Hiding Resolved Comments By default, resolved comments disappear. To see resolved comments, click the More (...) icon in the upper right corner of the screen and choose Show Resolved Comments. They’ll reappear with a faded or desaturated look so you can distinguish them from comments that are still open. To make resolved comments disappear again, click the More (...) icon in the upper right corner and choose Hide Resolved Comments. The show/hide setting is specific to each Review 360 item, so you can show resolved comments in one item and hide them in another. Review 360 remembers your choice, so you don’t have to reset it every time you open an item. Reopening Comments Sometimes you need to reopen a comment or discussion that was previously resolved. No problem! First, show resolved comments as described above, then hover over the comment and click the green check mark icon that appears. Export Comments to CSV and PDF Files Export comments from a Review 360 item for analysis, backup, or regulatory requirements. Here’s how. First, make sure you’re signed in to Review 360 with an Articulate ID. Then, click the More (...) icon in the upper right corner of the screen and choose Export Comments. Use the Comment Order drop-down list to choose how you want to organize comments in your report. Choose either CSV or PDF from the Export Format drop-down list. Click Export and choose where you want to save your report. All comments for all versions of the Review 360 item get exported to a single report. However, to include resolved comments in the PDF export, set the item to Show Resolved Comments first via the More (...) icon in the upper right corner before exporting. Disable and Re-Enable Comments Only the content owner can turn off comments. Here’s what happens when comments are disabled: The sidebar disappears from the review tab, and the feedback tab disappears altogether. If the review item already had comments, you won’t be able to read them unless you export them to a report. If the content owner enables comments again, all pre-existing comments will reappear. (Re-enable comments by clicking the More (...) icon in the upper right corner and choosing Enable Comments.)Articulate 360 Teams: Managing Content When Users Leave Your Team
Maintain control of your content and intellectual property. When someone leaves your team, you must transfer their shared content to another team member. Then choose whether or not to include their personal content. Online content a user creates with Articulate 360 apps is connected to their Articulate ID and is considered personal content. Once they share the content with the team, it stays with the subscription until they unshare it. See the table below for a list of personal and shared content: Personal Content Shared Content Rise 360 courses, microlearning, and question banks in the private directory Unshared Rise 360 block templates Review 360 items and folders in the private directory. Rise 360 courses, microlearning, and question banks in the team directory Shared Rise 360 block templates Review 360 items and folders in the team directory Storyline 360 shared team slides When someone leaves your team, and their email is deactivated, you'll completely lose access to their personal content. In most cases, you should include their personal content when transferring to another team member to maintain control of your team's content and intellectual property. However, there are a few scenarios where you could choose not to include personal content, such as: A team member leaves temporarily, and no one else needs to access their Rise 360 and Review 360 content before they return. A contractor or freelancer used their personal Articulate ID to join your team, and they have personal content connected to it. When that happens, follow the tips in How Freelancers Work With Articulate 360 Teams. Whatever the scenario, we have steps for you. Remove the User from Your Team Transfer Shared and Personal Content Transfer Only Shared Content Transfer Content to a New User When There's No Open Seat Remove the User from Your Team Manage your team right in your web browser. Go to https://id.articulate.com/redirect/account and sign in with your Articulate ID email address and password. Then, click Manage Team on the left side of the screen and follow the steps below. (You must have either primary admin, 360 admin, or group manager permissions to see the Manage Team page.) Click their name from the list to launch the Edit permissions sidebar. Members with primary admin or 360 admin permissions can remove multiple users at once by selecting the checkboxes beside their names. Note that content from selected users with creator permissions may only be transferred to one member. Click the Remove from 360 link at the bottom. Click the Transfer to field to select a team member as the new owner of the removed user's shared content. You can type the first few letters of the receiver’s name to filter the list, as shown below. If the person you want to transfer content to hasn’t joined the team yet, invite them to the team and assign creator permissions first before removing the old user. You can transfer content to them when they accept your invitation to join the team. If there are no available licenses for the new user, choose None and contact support after the new user is assigned creator permissions. We’re working to make the experience better. See this section for more details. Choose either of the following options (See below for details on each option): Transfer shared and personal content Transfer Only Shared Content Transfer Shared and Personal Content To remove a user and include their personal content in the transfer, keep Include personal content selected and click Remove User. What happens when you transfer content to someone else? The user you removed from the team receives an email notification confirming that they were removed. The user also loses access to any Review 360 items with private share links. The new owner receives an email notification about the content transferred to them. They have full control over Rise 360 courses, microlearning, label sets, and block templates; Review 360 items (including Storyline 360 project backups) and review requests; and Storyline 360 team slides. Know where to find transferred content. Rise 360 collaborator access and folder share settings for Rise 360 and Review 360 are also transferred to the new owner. Course collaborators on Rise 360 courses and shareable links for Rise 360 and Review 360 content remain the same, so everyone who has access can continue to use them. Who can you transfer content to? You can transfer content to any team member with creator permissions. You can’t divide content among multiple users. However, the new owner can transfer Rise 360 courses to other team members. The new owner must be a member of your team with creator permissions. If they haven’t joined your team yet, invite them to the team and assign creator permissions first before removing the old user. You can transfer content to them when they accept your invitation to join the team. Does all the content from the original user get transferred? Yes, all of the user’s Rise 360 courses, microlearning, Review 360 items (including Storyline 360 project backups), review requests, and Storyline 360 team slides are transferred to the new owner. Rise 360 collaborator access and folder share settings for Rise 360 and Review 360 are also transferred to the new owner. Here's what the new owner sees. Transfer Only Shared Content To remove a user from your team without transferring their personal content, uncheck Include personal content before clicking Remove User. What happens when you remove a user and don't include their personal content? The user receives an email notification confirming that they were removed. The user also loses to any Review 360 items with private share links. The user’s private Rise 360 courses, microlearning, and Review 360 items (including Storyline 360 project backups) remain on our servers up to six months. During that time, shareable links for the projects continue to work, so your team can still view them. However, no one will be able to edit or manage them. Any collaborators will have their access to the content revoked. If the user rejoins your team, joins another team, or buys an individual subscription with the same email address within six months, they’ll have full control of their private Rise 360 content and Review 360 items again. The new owner of the shared content receives an email notification about the content transferred to them. They have full control over Rise 360 courses and microlearning in the team directory, label sets, and shared block templates; Review 360 items in the team directory (including Storyline 360 project backups) and review requests; and Storyline 360 team slides. Learn more. Rise 360 collaborator access from shared content and folder share settings for Rise 360 and Review 360 are also transferred to the new owner. Transfer Content to a New User When There's No Available License How do you transfer content to a new user when you don't have a license to give them? Follow these steps: Remove the user’s creator permissions on the Manage Team page using any of these methods: Click the Transfer to field and select None - do not transfer content. We will keep personal and shared content in an unowned state until you’re ready to transfer it to another team member. Click Confirm or Remove User to free up the creator license. Assign the creator license to the new user who will receive the content. Have the member with primary admin permissions contact us with the following information, and we’ll transfer the unowned content to the new team member.
