A New Chapter for Our E-Learning Heroes Community
It's hard to believe that two weeks have already passed since we launched our new E-Learning Heroes community platform. We're thrilled to be on this journey with you, building upon the incredible foundation of knowledge and collaboration we've cultivated together for well over a decade now. What's New and Exciting Many of you have shared positive feedback about the new forums, noting that they're easier to navigate. We're especially pleased to hear that the new dedicated groups, such as those for JavaScript and Accessibility, are welcome additions. These improvements are just the beginning – we have more exciting features in the pipeline. Acknowledging the Challenges Of course, with any significant transition, there are bound to be some hurdles along the way. We've encountered a few hiccups, and we sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through them. Here are a couple of key points to be aware of: Content Cleanup: In preparation for the move, we archived discussions that hadn't seen activity in over three years, as well as outdated articles and user guides. This means that some older content may no longer be accessible. It will take some time for search engines to update their results accordingly. Technical Issues: We're aware of a redirect bug that sometimes causes pages to load incorrectly. If you encounter this, please try refreshing the page or clearing your cache. We're actively working with our platform vendor to resolve this and some other issues. Feature Differences: We’ve heard your feedback about some features that you’re missing from our old community, such as showcasing projects on your profile, how the emails display, seeing postings on our jobs hub, and others. Some of those features are in the works, and we are sharing additional feature requests with our vendor. In the meantime, If you're looking for E-Learning job postings, we recommend ATD's job bank and and The Learning Guild Job Board. Moving Forward Together Your experience and satisfaction are our top priorities. We're committed to creating an environment where you can easily find the help and resources you need to build exceptional courses. As we navigate this transition together, please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, concerns, or feedback. You can reply to this thread or feel free to email us atcommunity@articulate.com. Thank you for being an integral part of our E-Learning Heroes community. Your contributions, insights, and patience during this time are invaluable. We're excited about the future and the enhanced experience that we're building together.GIF with "Zoom Picture" Enabled Won't Autoplay
I have a GIF on the slide that works well, however, I wanted to add the ability to click-to-enlarge aka Zoom Picture and now the GIF won't play until clicked. Is there a way around this? Or does adding the Zoom Picture effect cancel out the autoplay nature of the GIF?Adjusting Pronunciation in AI Text-to-Speech Functionality
Hi everyone, Our team is currently evaluating the trial version of the AI text-to-speech functionality, and we’re impressed with its capabilities! However, we’re looking for a way to adjust how the voices and characters pronounce certain words, aside from modifying the stability, similarity, and style exaggeration settings. Does anyone know if there are additional options or settings available for customizing pronunciations? Any insights or tips would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!State Formatting Painter not Working
Hey all, I did the latest update yesterday (Oct 3 2024) and now my state formatting painter isn't working. I have a lot of buttons that I need to change the state on and don't want to manually do it as I'm sure I'll miss one! Is anyone else having the same issue? Yesterday it would only format the content of the button (text and triggers) but not the states. Today it's not doing anything. Is it just me?Brief flash between slide layers
Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows what I could do to resolve this issue. I keep seeing all the items briefly flash at the beginning of every slide layer. I am not sure why this is. I've made sure these items do not have animations. I've made sure all transitions are "none." The slide properties that are currently checked are "hide other slide layers," "hide objects on base layer," and "prevent the user from clicking on other layer." The flashing is disruptive to the flow of the course because it makes it look like a slide header is reappearing over and over again when in fact, it is not. Could someone please give advice? Thank you!Quiz not pulling from all question banks
I have created question banks in my quiz each containing several questions and an assigned number of questions that can be pulled from each bank. The questions are set to random shuffle and do not have any locked questions at this time. However, after taking/trialing the quiz several times, I noticed that some banks are not pulled from at all. Besides locking specific questions to ensure that they are presented to the learner during the quiz, is there a way to ensure that a certain number of questions are pulled from each bank? If I want to be sure 5 questions from each bank are presented and the only way to do it is to lock 5 questions in, then they will be the same 5 that appear each time voiding the random shuffle feature by default. Any guidance would be great!Welcome to the New E-Learning Heroes!
Hello! I’m Ginger Swart, a Community Manager here at Articulate, and I’m thrilled to welcome you to our new E-Learning Heroes Community! Please check out this article to watch a walkthrough video of our site and our FAQ article for more information. The work to move to our new site started over a year ago. To prepare for this, we have migrated over 1.5 million community members, 2100+ articles, 970+ examples and downloads, and more discussion posts than I can count! We had a beta period with our Super Heroes, and we appreciate all of the feedback we received from them. But with that much content, we anticipate there will be some hiccups, so please use this discussion to let us know about any issues you find and any feedback you want to share with us. I hope you’ll love the new community as much as I do!
