Brand Kit in Rise 360
Feature Idea: As an ID for a company with a specific brand package, I would love the opportunity to create a custom theme/brand that includes more than one color to streamline the customization/editing process. Currently, you can only select one hex code as the "theme" color, which appears throughout block customizations. With a brand kit, there could be a palette of all brand colors that would then appear within the formatting settings instead of the generic rainbow palette, which then reduces the need to input hex codes individually. It would be nice to be able to set custom Styles. For example, I often use a light blue background on some blocks. I wish I could simply click the Style icon and select it from a list instead of clicking custom + inputting the hex code.RISE 360 Blocks with Resizing of Images
Will there be an easier way to adjust pictures in blocks within RISE? I struggle when I import a picture, its so big.. Would be a easier if we could just adjust in the RISE platform itself, rather than resaving else where and putzing around with the sizing. The labeled graphic block as well as the tabs interaction isn't my friend when it comes to images. When you insert pictures, they are very big. I've tried to shrink and they still come in big or distorted.Fix dialogue that offers no choices: missing fonts
So ... you can only click OK here: Surely you could give alternatives? Other software would let me download the fonts, or manually choose the replacement from installed fonts, or just Cancel to avoid corrupting the module? This one can be translated to, "I'm about to lose your work, and all you can do to stop me is Ctrl-Alt-Esc and kill this program." I personally know that I can just not save my work, but I doubt everyone does. It says "If you continue ..." but you can't do anything else.Search functionality for unassigned trigger.
At present, we are required to manually inspect each page and layer for any unassigned triggers, which is a labor-intensive process and prone to oversight. This method is not only time-consuming but also increases the likelihood that some unassigned triggers may go unnoticed. There are instances when triggers remain unassigned due to various reasons, such as moving or reusing slides, or other operational factors. This can lead to significant functionality errors, which could impact the overall performance. To streamline this process and reduce the risk of errors, it would be highly advantageous to implement a search functionality specifically designed to identify and highlight unassigned triggers.Auto Play Audio
It has been mentioned a few times but I think this is a bigger issue than the developers realize. I am the lead on a major project and we are converting all of our safety training videos and on the job training courses through Rise 360. We have over 300 employees in our facility and well over 50% are English as a second language team members. Having an auto play feature in rise 360 is crucial for our success. It ensures that every employee—regardless of reading level or language proficiency—receives the full content of each lesson without missing critical information. Instead of relying on individuals to manually activate audio or navigate complex menus, the Auto Play function would deliver a consistent and accessible learning experience for everyone. This not only improves comprehension for our ESL team members but also reduces confusion, minimizes repeated training sessions, and ensures that all safety messages are communicated clearly and effectively. I really hope the developers come up with something soon, as I see this has been the concern of many since the start.Show/hide layers with JavaScript
The functionality of the JavaScript API to change image states has been a very appreciated godsend. I'm not sure what would be involved, but the ability to show and hide layers with JavaScript seems like the next evolution. The current workaround is to create a kind of "predicate" boolean in Storyline, changing its value with JavaScript, and then using secondary triggers to respond to that variable's change, showing and hiding according to that variable's value. It works well enough in that there's no real alternative, but JavaScript would allow much more conditional logic to determine which layers are shown and hidden as well as when.Animated Avatars
I'd love to be able to use Articulate (I mainly use Storyline) to create animated avatar training modules. I'm looking for more natural movements than what the static avatars allow using states and intro/exit animations. For example, I want to create an animated video of a cartoon avatar putting on PPE. Another example is an avatar whose mouth moves while talking.Ability to Copy/Move Microlearnings to Courses
In Articulate 360, it’s possible to copy or move a lesson from one course to another, but there’s no equivalent capability for microlearning content. 🙄 Instead, users are forced to rebuild microlearning content as block templates every time they need to reuse it in a course, which is both inefficient and unnecessarily time-consuming. 🤬 This gap creates avoidable friction in what should be a straightforward workflow. Enabling the ability to copy or move microlearning content into courses would be a simple but high-impact improvement that would remove a lot of frustration and redundancy. Rather than focusing heavily on AI features, it would be great to see attention given to strengthening these core content management capabilities that directly affect day-to-day productivity. I am sure I am not the first person to share this feedback. Thanks for your time and consideration! 🙂PDF Reader or View PDF via Scrolling Panel
The ask: Could a PDF reader or an addition to the scrolling panel allowing PDFs be added to Storyline's functionality? Our team is required to present manual pages in our lessons, necessitating the use of a scrolling panels. To display manuals or textbook pages that are saved as PDFs in Storyline, you must process the conversion of the PDF in a third-party program. After the conversion, you must import the images and align each page individually in the scrolling panel. The pages must be grouped in a certain way for the scrolling panel to populate correctly. I’ve included a Review 360 link with an example of what the end results looks like: Review 360: PDF Scrolling Panel Example If a PDF reader was included in Storylines toolset, it would make life for designers much easier. Our team is looking for the following features: Allowing PDFs to be imported into Storyline without the need for conversion to JPEG or PNG Automated scrolling for multiple pages. Say the PDF has multiple pages, the user can either flip through the pages or scroll through them. How would it function?: Additional functionality to scrolling panels OR including a built in PDF reader to Storyline's toolset Additional Functionality: Zoom functions Enable PDF bookmarks We appreciate any updates or notice on building this functionality, if possible.
