900 Topicsstoryline 3 user guide
i only need storyline every few months so i can't justify a subscription. i only need to access the storyline 3 user guide once or twice a year. i just tried today and Articulate has nixed all access. such an unjustifiable, unkind action ranks with the best of those by trump. you disgust me, Articulate, and as soon as i send this i will close my account.AI Voices
Just my two cents, AI Voices were good because we didn't need to go back to our live voice to get something redone, or if we wanted to update 1 slide or add something to a presentation. Now we are seeing voices being removed so the advantage of the AI voices is reduced. I see 2 posts this morning and it's not even lunch time from people that need to make updates to 1 or 2 slides, change a word, or add something and the voice is gone. Maybe we need to look at AI again.Solved300Views6likes15CommentsNext Button Disabled on Resume After Video Completion – Storyline 360
Hi Team, I have a query related to the Resume behavior in Articulate Storyline 360. In my project, a slide contains an MP4 video. The Next button is initially disabled and is enabled only after the video completes, which works correctly on the first visit. However, when the learner closes the course and relaunches it, then clicks Resume, the slide resumes correctly but the Next button appears disabled again, even though the video was already completed earlier. Requirements: Player: Default Modern Player Navigation: using default navigation, and Alternative solution using custom navigation This issue is critical, and I need a reliable solution that ensures the Next button remains enabled on resume once the video has already been completed. Please advise on the best possible approach to resolve this. Thank you.67Views1like7CommentsWhat if most course review pain points come from the same root issue?
I’ve been noticing something during course reviews that I can’t unsee anymore. A lot of the most common pain points in L&D tend to show up together: courses that feel unclear even when the content is accurate, long review cycles with lots of subjective feedback, inconsistent standards across modules or teams, stakeholder disagreement about “what good looks like,” cognitive overload on otherwise solid screens, accessibility gaps caught late, endless rewrites that don’t really improve the experience, and very little shared way to measure quality. Individually, these look like separate problems. But together, they start to feel like a standards and clarity gap, not a content gap. Lately, I’ve been exploring whether having a shared review lens — one that looks at clarity, consistency, accessibility, and experience as a whole — could reduce a lot of this friction earlier in the process. I’m curious: Do these issues tend to cluster for you too? Where do reviews usually break down? What’s helped you create more alignment, if anything? I’m interested in patterns more than tools.3Views0likes0CommentsEnhancing Review 360 Feedback Management with Categorization Tags
Currently, in Review 360, feedback and comments provided during reviews are captured in a generic format without any structured categorization. This often leads to ambiguity when interpreting feedback, as reviewers and developers must manually infer whether a comment refers to an error, an enhancement suggestion, or a query. The lack of classification makes prioritization and resolution time-consuming, especially when handling large volumes of feedback across multiple stakeholders. Post-implementation of the proposed feature—a dropdown selection allowing users to tag feedback as Error, Enhancement, Query or Not applicable—the process becomes significantly more streamlined. Categorization at the point of entry ensures clarity, enabling teams to filter and sort feedback based on type, prioritize critical issues, and allocate resources effectively. This structured approach not only improves communication between reviewers and developers but also accelerates decision-making and enhances overall productivity by reducing misinterpretation and manual effort. This categorization should also be reflected in the generated reports.12Views2likes3CommentsCommunity Insights: What Judy Nollet’s L&D Journey Can Teach You About Growing Your Own Career
Some careers grow with you, year after year. For JudyNollet, hers has spanned technologies, tools, and team roles—guided by curiosity, clarity, and a willingness to evolve. In this Member Spotlight, you’ll find insights and takeaways from her decades in learning and development (L&D), including ways you can put them into practice as you shape your own path. Growing with the Field: From Slides to Storyline Judy’s career has evolved alongside tools and technologies. “I’ve been in learning and development throughout my adult life, though it wasn’t always called that,” Judy says. “My early jobs involved producing training and marketing programs, and I had to adjust my skillset as the tech evolved—from 35mm slides to interactive videodiscs, and eventually to what’s now called eLearning.” “While contracting with a large company, the manager asked if I’d learn a new software called Articulate Studio. What an incredible opportunity. I learned Studio, then Storyline 1, 2, and 3, and eventually Storyline 360 and Rise 360.” Her path shows how staying open to new tools has supported her growth at every stage. The same spirit is guiding many learning designers as they begin exploring AI alongside traditional authoring tools. 💡 Tip: Let your skills evolve with the tools. Each new technology is a chance to stretch, specialize, or shape a niche that sets you apart. The Value of Community Community has played a steady, supportive role throughout Judy’s career. “I received lots of helpful advice from generous colleagues. And the Articulate community is invaluable. I’ve learned so much simply from reading comments by Super Heroes like Phil Mayor and the late Walt Hamilton.” “Walt used to write ‘PIAWYC’ — Pass it along when you can. That embodies the spirit of the community. I often use a variation of that: Pay it forward when you can.” Judy’s experiences show how powerful community can be, both in strengthening your skills and in reminding you that you’re not learning alone. 💡 Tip: Look for small ways to “pay it forward.” Even a brief comment or shared insight can make someone else’s learning easier. Skills That Made the Biggest Difference For Judy, what shaped her career wasn't any specific tool she used. It was the way she approached problems and ideas. “I’m good at simplifying content, which is vital for this work. I also like to learn — that keeps instructional design and technical writing enjoyable, because I’m always learning new topics and new tools.” “For programming and troubleshooting in Storyline, it also helps to be logical and detail-oriented.” 💡Tip: Strengthen your core thinking skills — clarity, logic, and simplification can go far in L&D. If you want a place to practice these, check out some past ELH Challenges like: Exploring & Magnifying Details in E-Learning — great for building attention to detail and visual clarity. Using Tabs Interactions for Exploration — perfect for practicing simplification and content chunking. Interactive Video Scenarios & Quizzes — a solid way to build your logical thinking and sequencing skills. Advice for New and Transitioning Learning Professionals Looking back, Judy encourages others to explore, while staying grounded in what energizes them. “Don’t be afraid to stretch and try new things. But don’t let others steer you down a path you don’t want to follow. I realized early on that I didn’t want to climb the traditional corporate ladder. I prefer doing the hands-on work to create courses.” Her path shows how clarity about what you don’t want can be just as important as discovering what you love. 💡Tip: Try new things early, but stay true to the kind of work you actually want to do. Clarity makes your career more sustainable. 💬 Your Turn Judy’s story shows how L&D careers evolve one tool, one challenge, and one shared insight at a time.

Hi Team, as a course creator, I find it exhausting to change the fonts on every slide because there is a default font applied. Has anyone else experienced this? I am thinking that if we could have a feature to change the fonts for the entire project at once, like we do in RISE, it would make a big difference and save us time.Solved64Views0likes9CommentsA Place to Start...
Hi, I’m Amalia LM, based in Arizona. I’ve worked in the E-Learning space at Amazon, focusing on scalable, learner-centered training for a diverse and global audience—primarily within operations. In parallel, I’ve served in parish ministry, supporting Spanish-speaking communities through communication, formation, and outreach. These two paths—corporate learning and ministry—have helped shape how I approach instructional design with empathy, clarity, and cultural awareness. I’m passionate about creating engaging, accessible content and enjoy collaborating across teams to bring structure and meaning to the learning experience. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and always eager to bridge gaps in understanding through thoughtful design. While I’ve gained experience in content development and learning flow, I still consider myself very much a learner. I’m here to grow in areas like interactive design, visual storytelling, and best practices with tools like Storyline and Rise. I’m grateful to be part of this community and look forward to learning from others while sharing what I can along the way.62Views1like3CommentsEditing 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!78Views0likes9CommentsConvert Rise to Storyline
Can you take an existing Rise course and convert it to Storyline? I have tried the PDF to PPT route and importing that into Storyline (too many distortions and slides are not even 20% the same) and read below on another possibility. I have tried multiple options from below and it just shows a location address. Thank you! From the web: Yes, you can embed Rise courses into Storyline. To do this, you must first export the Rise 360 course as a web package and extract the zip file on your computer. Then, add the extracted folder to your Storyline project as a web object292Views0likes3Comments
