AI - audio edit issue
I am unable to edit AI-generated audio. When I right-click an existing MP3 file and select "Replace with AI Text-to-Speech," the audio is generated successfully. However, when I try to edit the same audio later using AI Text-to-Speech, the editor opens with a blank screen and no text is displayed for editing. Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so, please let me know if there is a solution or workaround. Thank you.AI - audio edit issue

Chatbots in Storyline? Meet Sarah. What if your eLearning course could talk back? I built an AI-powered chatbot right inside the D-ID app and then designed inside Articulate Storyline, and named her Sarah. She’s more than a character. She’s a smart, interactive course concierge that answers learner questions using your course’s knowledge base. No more digging through PDFs or endless menus; just ask, and Sarah responds. Watch the quick intro: 👉 https://youtu.be/HOLTi-zFNcw?si=14xJYC-0UEFGtnYV Sarah’s just the start of smarter, more human learning in 2025.Rethinking Storyline's Accessibility Checker Guidance on Accessible Video Controls and Autoplay
Storyline’s new accessibility checker is a very useful tool and can be leveraged to create more accessible courses. However, the guidance on disabling autoplay and turning on accessible video controls appears misguided. The following course passes the accessibility checker but has two playback controls that are not synced together. Please visit the Inaccessible Course Example. This design would not be very usable or accessible. For context, the courses I am working on include transcripts in each course's notes section. Can someone show me an example where the accessible video controls feature is implemented successfully? Is there a way to avoid duplicate player controls? Why can’t the transcript feature be included in the main Storyline player? Including the transcript feature could alleviate the need for accessible player controls and improve the learning experience. Also, it would be great if the AI workflow could create captions and add a transcript automatically. This would be a significant time saver. The accessibility checker should prompt the author to check the captions and transcript to ensure they are accurate as well. Another issue is the autoplay setting. The accessibility checker makes it seem straightforward to turn off autoplay. The author needs to set the option “Play video” to when “clicked” or “triggered.” Unfortunately, this change causes the Storyline Player to not control or stay in sync with the video. Implementing autoplay globally across a course appears to be much more complex. The University of California’s Office of the President has an article called, Avoiding Autoplayed Media. This article goes into the technical steps required to configure autoplay for a slide or a course in Storyline. It does not reference the “Play video” toggle. Instead, the author must leverage triggers and variables in the project to stop slides from autoplaying globally. In this example, I configured a trigger to stop the video when the rectangle appears on the slide. I configured another trigger to start the video when the rectangle leaves the slide. I also used guidance from How to Pause and Sync Videos with Timeline in Storyline 360. This is because by default, Storyline enables “Pause on click.” However, the video can get out of sync with the timeline if clicking on the video pauses it. This technique creates a variable to track when a user clicks the video to ensure it stays in sync with the Storyline player. This technique is necessary to ensure the learner does not get the timeline out of sync with the video. This No Autoplay Course Example incorporates those techniques. Is there an easier way to stop slides from autoplaying? Would Articulate consider adding an autoplay option to Storyline’s player? If Articulate included this option as part of the player controls, it would be significantly easier to implement and be available on most Storyline courses. This would allow learners to toggle autoplay on or off, similar to how platforms such as YouTube operate. Authors would not need to dedicate time to configure this option. My last suggestion is to consider incorporating a manual check tab in Storyline’s accessibility checker. The checker currently does not guide authors on how to review the focus order of each slide. The checker could provide guidance on how to use the focus order tool and check the color contrast of each slide. It could also provide information about accessible button names and how to ensure they are consistently represented across button states. For example, PowerPoint will flag a slide as having a read order issue if the order is different than how the content is presented visually on the slide. The author must manually check the read order to confirm that it is correct. Storyline could implement a similar feature or use AI to provide some guidance on potential focus order issues. Thank you for your time, and I appreciate any feedback you can provide.Creation of a bulk of tests in articulate
Dear all, As part of and IT migration between training platforms, I have to create 448 e-learnings as fast as possible. Each e-learning will be a quiz with at least 5 multiple choice questions. I can download the pdfs with the questions from the legacy platform but it will take a crazy amount of time to create each new quiz. Is there any template or tip to be as efficient as possible? Using AI or cleaning up the data in an excel before feeding it to Articulate? Summary: Each legacy PDF with the quiz will need a separate and new e-learning as a quiz/test Very little time and resources Scope: 448 new quizzes based on PDF reports Thank you!Can the AI Assistant implement character limits in CC segments?
Hello, Articulate community! Just wondering if the Storyline or Rise AI Assistant can implement character limits in CC segments. Our team abides by DCMP guidelines, which advise no more than 32 characters (including spaces) and a max of two lines per segment. I haven't tried asking the AI Assistant this myself, but if this capability exists in Storyline and/or Rise, can anyone recommend an effective prompt to use to achieve these results? If this feature doesn't yet exist, could I submit a feature request for future versions of SL and Rise? Thanks much in advance. :)Articulate closes when I click the “Replace” button in the voice generation window.
This happens when I right-click on an audio track (an MP3 file) in the timeline and select “Replace Audio > AI Audio...” In the voice generation window, I select a voice actor, paste the text from Notepad, click “Generate,” and then the “Replace” button. The project window I’m working in then closes. I have over 100 sounds to replace, and many of them are programmed with triggers, so adding these sounds instead of replacing them is, unfortunately, extra work. Tested multiple times, on various projects, on two computers. Has anyone else encountered this issue and found a solution?
