360 images feature needs significant improvement
Currently, the markers cannot be customized to have basic visited states to improve visual communication of what content learners have viewed. This results in learners clicking on things to find the content that they have not viewed before progressing, which does not help in an environment where they are asked to "move around". Also, we are not able to scale the textbox in such a way that the text flows and reads better on the screen. The workaround would be to use custom layers but that increases production time. I realize that Articulate enjoys pushing AI functionalities and features, but no AI can fix these unless it can help me write a custom code to change the states of my buttons or help me expand those textboxes to suit my need. Can we please have a fix to these core issues so that interesting features such as 360 images become usable? Otherwise, they're just features that no one will use.Archer voice has changed in Rise 360
From around 4pm UK time yesterday I noticed that the standard Archer voice has changed its tone and I wondered if it is effecting anyone else or just me. We are building content in Rise 360 and are using the AI voice generator to create narration in certain blocks. We always use the following voice, but yesterday it seemed to change and I don't know why. Archer - Conversational Male | Middle-aged | Dialogue | Fine-tuned for conversation... As a workaround to try retain the same voice I am having to create the narration using the same voice in Storyline 360, raise the volume by 50% to match Rise 360, export as an audio file, and then import into Rise 360. Is this issue affecting anyone else, and does anyone know how to resolve it please?You can now Localize Text to Speech on Rise and Storyline!
We’re thrilled to announce an exciting enhancement for all Localization Pro users! When you translate your course, the script will be automatically translated and new audio will be generated and re-inserted in the target language, saving you time and effort. What’s New With this update, translation now includes: Automatic translation of the script (the text that powers Text to Speech). Automatic generation and insertion of localized audio in your translated course. Validator updates: Validators can now update the script, and importing their suggestion will automatically update the audio as well. This functionality is now live in both Rise and Storyline. Important Note for Storyline Users This update applies to both AI Text to Speech and Legacy Text to Speech shapes. You’ll no longer need to manually replace audio after translation, it’s all handled automatically during the translation process! Next Steps We’d love to hear your feedback and learn about your experience using this new feature. Your insights are invaluable as we continue refining how teams create localized learning experiences.The slide loader (black screen with dots) is small
Hi, the loader between slides (a black screen with dots) is to small and in the left top corner. The module was 960*540px but I change it to 1920*1080. It seams the loader screen (html class : 'load-container') still remember the old dimensions and didn't update the new ones (I cant' get a screenshot because it's too quick). I tried to change any 960*540 occurrences to 1920*1080 in the xml files, but it didn't fix it. Any ideas ? Thanks !Is Articulate extremely slow after the latest Windows update?
Hi, Is it just me? Or have other people had serious lag time using Rise and Storyline after the latest Windows updates? Trying to get the preview to play, hitting spacebar, adjusting CC on audio and video files, and even just opening Storyline or Rise is taking really long. I'm trying to figure out if this is an issue with my laptop or a wider issue. Thanks!Not able to publish Rise 360 courses
Hi Articulate Team, We have been experiencing issues publishing our Rise 360 courses for the past week. The courses are being published in LMS format using SCORM 2004, 2nd Edition. This is a high-priority matter as we have several courses scheduled to launch this week and are unable to proceed without a resolution. Could you please investigate this urgently and provide an update at your earliest convenience? Thank you.Learner Voice Recording
It would be extremely valuable to have a native Learner Voice Recording block in Articulate Rise 360 that allows learners to record spoken responses directly within a lesson — without leaving the course environment. This would be particularly useful for language learning, interview preparation, public speaking practice, and soft skills training. Ideally the block would allow learners to record audio, play it back, and optionally download it as an MP3. Integration with AI-powered speech analysis (pronunciation, fluency, grammar, and content feedback) would make this an industry-leading feature. Articulate already has microphone access infrastructure in place for course narration recording — extending this capability to learners within published courses would be a natural and highly impactful next step. Many instructional designers are currently unable to deliver speaking practice activities within Rise due to browser restrictions on microphone access inside iframes, forcing learners to leave the course environment to use third-party tools. A native solution would keep learners fully immersed in the learning experience and open up entirely new use cases for Rise 360 in corporate training, higher education, and language learning.Embed Youtube Video - Error 153
