Feature/Verbesserung: Benennung von KI-Audiodateien
Hallo Zusammen, es wurde im Workflow ein Verbesserungswunsch geäußert: Die KI Audio-Funktion, generiert eine Audio mit der Bezeichnung der ersten Satzes, wie z.B.: "Dies ist der erste Satz der gesprochen wurde.mp3". Für die Übersichtlichkeit benennen wir die Audios in der Medienbibliothek um und dann heißt es, nachdem die Audios generiert wurden, als Beispiel: Audio_1.mp3, Audio_2.mp3, usw. ... Wenn aber Korrekturen gemacht werden müssen und der Satz neu-eingesprochen wird ändert sich die Benennung und aktualisiert es auf die Audio-Bezeichnung den es generiert hat. Kann man diesen Schritt beibehalten und die Audio-Bezeichnung gleichbleiben lassen, nach dem man es einmal umbenannt hat? Oder noch besser: Lässt sich die Benennung von Vornhinein ändern und beibehalten? Vielen Dank im Voraus!Player icon images
Does anyone have tips for taking screenshots of the player icons for a navigation slide? It seems like it should be simple, but since the player icons don't scale up with the window size they always come out blurry when blown up for easier viewing. You'd think it would be easy to find the Articulate player icons in the 360 icon library, but I always end up having to search for a while just to find ones that looks similar.How can I link or dynamically update external image files in Storyline 360?
Hi everyone, I’m exploring ways to automate how images are updated in an Articulate Storyline 360 project. Here’s the scenario: I have a folder containing screenshots or visual assets that are frequently updated (for example, new UI screenshots for software simulations). I’d like to find a way to link these images to Storyline so that when I replace an image file in the local folder (using the same filename), the corresponding image inside the Storyline project also updates automatically. I understand that Storyline currently embeds all media files into the .story file, but I’m wondering if there’s any workflow, script, or workaround (like a web object, external reference, or API-based automation) that can help achieve something similar — basically, a dynamic or linked image repository. Is there any way to display or link it directly in Storyline without manually downloading and inserting it each time? I’m open to creative solutions — such as using the Media Library, relative file paths, or Web Objects — as long as it helps simplify recurring image updates. Any insights, ideas, or recommended practices would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, Shashi G💡 Feature Idea: Enable Dynamic or Linked Image References in Storyline 360 (Similar to Captivate)
Hi Articulate Team and Community, I’d like to share a feature idea that could make media management much more efficient for developers working on large or frequently updated Storyline projects. Scenario: In many projects, we utilize screenshots and visual assets that are updated regularly — for example, UI captures for software simulations or interface updates. Currently, when these assets change, we must manually replace each image in Storyline or use the Media Library to replace files one by one. Feature Request: It would be incredibly useful if Storyline could link images (and other media) to an external folder or repository, so that when an image file in that folder is updated (and the filename remains the same), it automatically updates inside the Storyline project. This kind of “dynamic asset linking” or “live reference” is already supported in some authoring tools like Adobe Captivate, where media can be linked rather than embedded — allowing updates to flow into the project automatically. Implementing this in Storyline would: Greatly reduce repetitive media replacement work. Ensure consistency across modules. Improve workflows for teams using shared design systems or asset libraries. Even a toggle or advanced option like “Link to file instead of embed” when inserting media would be a game-changer! Would love to hear what the Articulate team and community think about this. Thanks, Shashi GCentralized Team Media Library for All Articulate Projects
I wanted to float an idea that I think could really streamline our workflow and improve consistency across our eLearning projects: a shared, customizable internal media library for all Articulate projects. Right now, internal media assets are uploaded and stored on a per-course basis. Wouldn't it be great if we had a global repository where the team could upload media, categorized, add alt text, and reused across any Articulate course? This would not only save time but also help maintain visual consistency and branding across our learning content. Curious to hear what others think or if something similar to this already exists and I am just not aware of it. Thanks!8 Business Use Cases for Microlearning
Are you excited to try out microlearning, but unsure when to use it? Below, we outline eight common workplace situations that benefit from a short-form course. Each situation includes a sample microlearning. At the end, learn how you can customize these templates for your own company and training needs. 1. Create Organizational Alignment To hit a business target, everyone needs to be moving in the same direction. Creating that alignment starts with clear, frequent communication of the shared mission, vision, and values. Microlearning can help. The following editable template shows how you can align employees through regular executive “micro” updates: Executive Update 2. Highlight HR Information, Notices, or Reminders Educating employees about annual events like open enrollment, tax season, and compliance training is a critical function of HR teams. The problem? Important announcements often get missed when they’re embedded in long paragraphs or endless emails. Grab the following templates to see how microlearning makes HR communications more digestible and engaging: A Quick Guide To Open Enrollment Internal Company Newsletter 3. Strengthen Company Culture and DEI Initiatives Fostering an inclusive company culture is a continuous process—not a one-time effort. A series of microlearnings can support your larger culture-building and DEI efforts. Check out the following examples for ideas on how to get started: Are You an Ally? Try Taking on These 5 Roles How To Identify and Stop Using Ableist Language Gossip-Proof Your Workplace 4. Streamline Business Processes You can also use microlearning to document and streamline business processes or workflows—such as employee onboarding or performance management. Notice how the following examples make it easy for employees to work through the steps of a process independently: New Hire Pre-Hire Checklist Performance Review and Feedback 5. Increase Security Awareness Most successful data breaches, phishing attacks, and other cybersecurity incidents are caused by human error. Adding refresher microlearnings throughout the year can fortify your defenses. See an example for safeguarding against phishing attacks below: Spot the Phish 6. Enhance Employee Wellness A successful business needs thriving employees. But employee wellness training often ends up buried under competing priorities. Microlearning makes it easy for employees to fit in short breaks for self-care throughout the workday. Check out these two wellness-related microlearning examples: 3 Desk Stretches to Instantly Improve Your Day 5 Tips for Better Naps 7. Provide Quick-Reference Guides Microlearning is the perfect resource for one-off training questions: Employees can quickly find the answers they need—when they need them. Below, we’ve created templates for product and software training. But you could easily create quick-reference guides for sales, customer service, and other teams. Get To Know [Name of Product] Software Training 8. Reinforce and Assess Key Takeaways Finally, who says you have to choose between a more sizable course and microlearning? Repetition aids retention. Consider following up longer training sessions with a microlearning quiz, scenario, or summary. The examples listed below demonstrate how you might do this: Can You Recover From a Workplace Mistake?
