How to get consistency with the AI voices?
I am currently in a project where I need to use a male voice, sadly the AI voice I usually use, Sam, has been removed from the library, so I found a new one: Max - New Zealand Conversational. I recorded the first section of Audio I needed a couple of days ago and it was great, exactly what I was looking for. However, today when I tried to use Max again he has an American accent. Why would this happen? I find that a lot of the NZ accents sound American in V3, but why would it work in V3 a couple of days ago and not today? V2 just doesn't sound as natural and I hate an obviously AI voice. I have tried it in the same project and also in a new project, selecting Max again from the library, but I cant get him to not sound American. Any ideas? Ill attach an audio clip of a snippet of the recording from a couple of days ago and the same segment recorded today.Storyline Progress Bar Animation - Looking for Ideas
I'm building a Storyline 360 course and have a progress bar on each slide. The filled portion of the bar animates in using a Wipe entrance animation to show progress advancing as learners move through the course. The effect works, but I'm not completely happy with it. The animation doesn't feel as smooth as I'd like, and the circular "knob" at the end of the progress bar briefly disappears when the slide loads before reappearing as the animation completes. I'm curious how others have handled this type of interaction. How are you building animated progress bars in Storyline? Is there a cleaner or more polished approach you've found? How do you keep the end marker/knob visible while still showing progress animation? Any examples or best practices you'd recommend? I'd love to hear how other developers have tackled this. Attached is an example of my progress bar. Thanks!Images Showing as Red X When Importing into Existing Storyline Projects – Issue Since July 28, 2026
Hi everyone, I’m experiencing an issue with Articulate Storyline that appears to have started with the July 28, 2026 version and continues in later versions. When importing content from a Story (.story) or Story Template (.storytemplate) file into an existing/ongoing Storyline project, some images are not displayed correctly. Instead, they appear as a red X / missing image placeholder. What I’ve found so far: The issue occurs when importing a Story or Story Template into an existing Storyline project. The same file can be imported successfully into a new, blank Storyline project, with the images displaying correctly. Only some images are affected; other images import normally. The affected images appear as a red X and cannot be displayed. The issue was not present in an earlier Storyline version. The problem appears to have started from the July 28, 2026 version onward. Creating a new scene or blank slide within the existing project does not resolve the issue. Inserting the image directly into the existing project is still possible; the problem specifically occurs with the imported content. Has anyone else encountered this issue in Storyline versions released from July 28, 2026 onward? Could this be related to a change in how Storyline handles or references image assets when importing Stories or Story Templates into an existing project? Is there a known workaround or fix? Any advice or confirmation that others are experiencing the same issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!Can anyone help me how i can pass the Microsoft AZ-104 exam with practice test?
Microsoft exams are very popular in the IT industry and everyone wants to become Microsoft certified. But Microsoft exams are very difficult to prepare. So I need a few suggestions and tips on how I can pass the AZ-104 exam.Horizontal Scrolling Bar 2025 New Method
We have been waiting for 1,5 decade for a Horizontal scrolling bar. 😆 While we wait, here's a new method that doesn't involve grouping, rotating and all that janky jazz. All you gotta do, is execute this JavaScript on a trigger when timeline starts. const square1 = object('5cIKSnWwBvM'); update(() => { square1.x = getVar('Slider1'); }); The object can be a picture, shape or a Group of many things. After this, create a Slider. Set a positive start number and a negative End number - that makes sure the scrolling bar scroll the right way (create a text box with the Slider variable in it, to fine-tune the numbers you use, it will make sense what I mean when you open the example project). I have added some shapes to create the illusion of it being inside a scrolling panel. Check the attached Storyline file for the codes and a visual example. Up next for me is to style the scrolling bar and make a custom background for it, so it looks like a real panel. Enjoy.Keyboard Shortcut for TTS?
Hello Heroes, Can anyone tell me the secret of getting the TTS function as a keyboard shortcut? Or Add to the Quick Access Toolbar? Alt-8 is the shortcut for Insert Audio from File, because it's the first choice in the dropdown menu. But what about the underline under the letter S in Text-to-Speech? Isn't that also supposed to be helpful for keyboard shortcuts? Thanks KatieMedia Manager - Modified
Hello, I have been using Articulate 360 for about a year now and I have seen this issue consistently throughout my usage. When I go to the media manager in Storyline 360, I see the options to order the files by the headers such as Duration, Size, etc., but the Modified column does not order them correctly, it just orders them by the name again. All the other header options work when ordering by their column, just not the Modified one. I attached an example screenshot where I tried to order the Modified column and it is not working as expected.Accessibility
Hi all, I'm hoping to get peoples thought/suggestions please... I'm in the UK and public sector so we need to ensure we meet WCAG 2.2 level AA by law. I'm working through the Articulate guidance but thought it would be worth asking the community if you have any advice on this, maybe what works well/not so well for you. If there are any tools that can be used to inspect the content or if it's a case of manually working through the content. We use a tool called site improve for websites which crawls sites and provides a report on what is failing and at what level but we're unable to use that for learning content. I've also just started looking at a browser plugin called WAVE which seem like it may help in certain situations. Any advice/shared experiences would be very gratefully received. Thanks, David.
