1868 TopicsEditing Branching in Storyline is so very difficult. What am I doing wrong?
I have a Storyline course just about completed, and I have to edit the branches by importing new slides. This process is complicated because I already have everything branched out! It takes me hours and hours to edit, because it's so confusing! What am I missing! I must be doing something wrong. Should I mute all trigger actions before I import the new slides to simplify the branch updates? This is the most difficult process I've ever had to go through when developing online content! I must be doing something wrong! I hope someone can help. Thanks!41Views0likes5CommentsAdjusting Carousel Template
Hello! I found this great photo carousel template that I would love to use but I am having a difficult time customizing it. As it currently exists, there are 15 photos, split up into 5 layers with 3 images each. It starts on the third layer showing photos 7, 8, and 9. The user can use the left and right arrows to move the carousel and show new images. There is an indicator on the bottom that shows which slide the user is on. There are motion paths to move the images between layers. I only have 12 photos so I would like to adapt this by making it only 4 layers with 3 images each. However, I would like it to start with the first 3 pictures (1, 2, 3) rather than in the middle. Can anyone provide some guidance on how to manipulate the motion paths, triggers, and layers to do this?56Views0likes3CommentsNoto Sans Thai font not displaying correctly
I am working on a module in multiple languages and we have had recurring issues with fonts not displaying correctly. To remedy this we have been using language-specific versions of Noto Sans. Noto Sans Thai is not publishing correctly in Review 360. When viewed in the SL file it displays fine - see image 1 When viewed in Review 360 in Chrome one character appears bold - see image 2 When viewed in Review 360 in Firefox the same character is corrupted - see image 3 When published and viewed in SCORMcloud it is the same as image 2 The fonts are installed correctly and I have published both locally and from our server and the problem occurs with both. Any advice would be appreciated.258Views0likes12CommentsStoryline Player Background Color Conflict with Custom Colors
Hello, Hoping there is an easy fix. I am experiencing a conflict with the player background colors not setting/displaying correctly. I build custom players for our products every couple years, I set the background color to "Custom" then set the hex value for a new color. What I am seeing is while the player is loading and when it is loaded I get a color swap from the old color to the new. After a bit of poking around I found that the inline css controlling the background-color in the body tag (actual html markup) isn't updating to the new color so I get a "flash" of old color before the linked css file loads the correct background color. Is anyone else experiencing this, is it a known bug (I believe its been like this a while), is it me and my system, or am I just going crazy?!?!? I've attached an image showing the differences. Thanks Mike118Views0likes7CommentsTechnical Question: How do I open a saved project in Storyline for editing?
I feel very foolish asking this, but I cannot find any info on how to do this. I worked on a project and published it months ago. Now I need to edit it, but it is not in the Recent Products section of the Storyline Home screen. I know I can browse for the module saved on my computer, but I have no idea what file to access - there are a lot associated with the project. Can someone tell me what to look for? Is there an extension I should find? Am I missing a very obvious and simple thing here? Thanks in advance!10Views0likes2Commentsneed help with multiple packages that make up one course
Where I work, we are creating training courses that are multiple modules long, anywhere between four modules to ten modules. We create each module as a separate .story file and publish that .story file from Storyline. This is because some of the .story files are reused across different courses. Then we have multiple published packages from Storyline that need to be combined to create the final course. The ways I know how to do this are two-fold 1 - use the features of an LMS to build a curriculum using the published packages 2 - create a multi-sco https://support.scorm.com/hc/en-us/articles/360051563253-Combining-Multiple-SCOs-Into-One-SCORM-Course What we want to do is take our Storyline files and publish them such that we can have one cmi5 package at the end of publishing. For example, if I have the course called Course 101 which consists of the following Introduction.story module-1.story module-2.story conclusion.story I want to publish all these .story files such that I get one Course 101 cmi 5 file which will contain all four pieces of the course. For those of you who are creating separate Storyline files that make up a course, how are you combining these files? Is anyone managing to use Storyline to take separate files and merge them into one final published file?23Views0likes2CommentsScreen focus
I’m curious how others approach screen focus during reviews. Lately, when I’m looking at Rise courses, I keep coming back to one question: What is the learner supposed to do differently after this screen? When that’s hard to answer, I usually find the screen is: trying to cover more than one idea mixing purposes (teaching + explaining + assessing) or using an interaction that doesn’t really support an action I’ve started using a simple constraint to guide decisions: one screen supports one outcome one interaction supports one decision or action It’s helped me simplify reviews more than tweaking layouts or adding features. How do you decide when a screen is “doing too much”? Would love to spark a conversation on how other learning professionals check for screen focus during review.3Views0likes0CommentsViewing Articulate 360 Content in SharePoint Online
Enabling Custom Scripts in SharePoint Online Custom scripts are now disabled in SharePoint Online for security reasons by default. As a result, Articulate content with the story.html file renamed to story.aspx in the published output that previously worked with SharePoint Online might not work anymore. If you don't need to track learners' progress or results, check out these free or low-cost options for web hosting. If you need to use SharePoint Online, your SharePoint admin may be able to resolve this issue by following the steps below. (Note that we don't provide support for either workaround.) As of July 10, 2024, SharePoint users will find that they are required to reenable the Custom Scripts feature every 24 hours, reverting the Custom Scripts setting to its default and disabled state. Please see Microsoft’s article on Custom Script settings for more information. Enabling Custom Script via the SharePoint Admin Center If you don't need instant access, follow these steps. Go to the SharePoint admin center and sign in with your credentials. In the sidebar to the left of the page, click Settings. (If you're using the Modern admin center, click the classic settings page hyperlink at the bottom of the Settings page.) Scroll to the Custom Script section, then select the options to Allow users to run custom script on personal sites and Allow users to run custom script on self-service created sites. Click OK to save your changes. Note that this change may take up to 24 hours to appear. Enabling Custom Script in SharePoint Online via PowerShell For instant access, follow these steps. Open Windows PowerShell with admin privileges, then run Install-Module -Name PnP.PowerShell Connect-PnPOnline -Url <url> -PnPManagementShell (replace <url> with your SharePoint URL, which will then generate a code for you to insert in your SharePoint admin center.) Run these commands in PowerShell: (replace the URL after -Url in the first command with the link to your static site collection, such as https://companyabc.sharepoint.com/sites/StaticSite). (If you need help creating a SharePoint site, refer to this article from Microsoft.) Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://yourorg.sharepoint.com/sites/StaticSite $site = Get-PnPSite Set-PnPSite -Identity $site.URL -NoScriptSite $false Your SharePoint site is almost ready to host HTML files! We just need to prepare the Articulate published output for upload. Here's how. In SharePoint, choose where you will locate this project. You can create a new folder or use the Documents location created by default with all SharePoint sites. Rename all the files with a .html extension in your unzipped published output folder to .aspx (keep the same file name). To do this, right-click the file, choose Rename, and then replace .html with .aspx. (Most projects only need to rename the analytics-frame.html and story.html files. Finally, upload the published output to your SharePoint site, then click story.aspx to launch your Articulate course. This change should take effect immediately.7.8KViews0likes89Comments
