I've been playing around with how to create a custom certificate in a Rise course and I've finally found a workaround using an embedded form that creates and delivers a PDF. Check it out: https://share.articulate.com/IcrVo3X-PV5k7x9CMMFkx I've been struggling with this for a long time and I know a handful of you have been too. Hope it helps! ps. I used the AI Assistant to create this mini course based off of the video I recorded outlining the steps, which I also included as content within the course to follow along.63Views3likes4CommentsNeed help creating a branching course
Hello, I'm new to Articulate Rise and wanted to ask if others have successfully created branched courses. I'd like to add a role selection at the start, so that based on the chosen role, learners are shown different lessons. My challenge is figuring out how to disable or hide lessons that don't match the selected role. Has anyone found an effective way to do this? Thank you.5Views0likes0CommentsVideo Quality Degradation in Storyline Publish Output
Hi All, We are experiencing a noticeable drop in video quality after publishing our Storyline course compared to the original source files. The Storyline player size is set to 960 × 540, while the source video resolutions are 1358 × 682 and 1280 × 620. After publishing, the videos appear significantly compressed and lose clarity. Could you please advise on the following: Is Storyline downscaling or compressing videos during publishing? Are there recommended settings to preserve original video quality? Would matching the player size to the video resolution improve output quality? Are there best practices for optimizing video quality in Storyline? Any guidance on improving the published video quality would be greatly appreciated.11Views0likes0CommentsLayer order on revisiting slide
Hi! I am having problems with the layer order when revisiting question slides containing the built-in review layer and another layer (Feedback) over the top of it. The slides are quiz slides that are being reviewed. They contain the built in Review layer which has some content on it but it also has a trigger to show the Feedback layer when the timeline starts. Feedback layer contains a button to visit another slide to review the content. They are then returned to the question slide. When the user returns to the question slide, the layers are in the wrong order so the review layer appears over the top of the Feedback layer. This happens all the time when the slides and layers are set to 'Resume'. Strangely, it also happens when the button to leave the slide closes the layer and then it is re-triggered by the Review layer. This happens the first time but subsequent times it works fine. It doesn't happen on the first visit to the slide when it is showing the review layer. Things I've tried: Adding a trigger to close the Feedback layer before leaving the other slide (and re-triggering it on return to the slide) Putting a short delay (0.1s) on re-triggering the Feedback layer (combined with above) Resetting the layers on revisit Resuming the layers on revisit The slide itself must stay on Resume or the learner won't see their answers to the questions (and it doesn't help switching it to 'Reset' anyway). I need to be able to show/hide the feedback so the learner can close it and read the questions. Any ideas? Or does the Review layer just always push its way to the top of everything? Or is this a bug?57Views0likes5CommentsScreen Recording Try Mode: Can you turn off button hover states in the captured screens?
Hi Everyone! I'm currently trying to create some Screen Recording - Try Me mode activities for learners to practice using a software application. The challenge I'm running into is that each of my screens has "called out" the spots where learners should click next (shown objects, like a button, in a hover state so it stands out). For example, the step may be "Click the Save button." To complete this step, I want the learner to locate the Save button on their own and click it. However, the screen recording feature has actually shown the Save button in a hover state already, meaning you can tell that's the Save button they should be clicking. Is there a way to have buttons remain in their normal state, so it's a bit more challenging for learners to complete each action? Any thoughts on / help with this would be amazing! Thanks!17Views0likes0CommentsStoryline slide order doesn't match navigation pane
Hi all - I'm very green with Storyline and don't know what I'm doing wrong here. But when I preview my course the order of the slides on the navigation pane is not the correct order in how I've set them up in the course. I've confirmed all slides are numbered in the correct order and when I click play, they advance in the right order but the navigation on the left is off and so it looks like as slides advance the user is jumping all over the place, and also means the learner can't use the navigation accurately. Any ideas on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.Solved57Views0likes3CommentsIntuitive Role Playing Exercise with Feedback
Hello, is there an AI tool within Storyline or Rise where you can insert an intuitive back-and-forth role-playing activity that provides real-time feedback to users depending on their responses to help enhance communication skills during customer service calls?572Views1like19CommentsEmbed Youtube Video - Error 153
Hello, Has something changed in Storyline?! I'm trying to embed a YouTube video using "iframe". I'm copying the embed code from YouTube, but it says 'Watch video on Youtube - Erro 153...'. I used: <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/dqaN76shzJE?si=F_NwSZruLu5BJAU6" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> Any/all help would be appreciated. Thanks397Views0likes8Commentscriteria for rise vs. storyline?
Hi all, I'm curious if anyone has established criteria that they use to evaluate whether Rise or Storyline is the best tool to build their requested training. Beyond the obvious regarding development and functionality abilities (e.g., rapid development vs. more customizable), does anyone have content-specific criteria that informs what tool they use to build their courses? I work in a compliance department so we've traditionally used Storyline for more 'gated' hand-held overviews of foundational concepts and Rise for content that iterates on those foundations. thanks!17Views0likes0CommentsNew in Storyline's AI Assistant: JavaScript Interactions
We just shipped something I have been itching to talk about. You can now use the AI assistant in Storyline to generate custom JavaScript triggers that turn a static slide into a dynamic interaction. Not just “show layer when variable changes” dynamic. I mean real, game-like behavior. This feature unlocks a lot for course authors: Lightweight gamification More immersive and engaging content Unique interactions that are tough or flat out impossible with built-in triggers alone And the best part is you can iterate with the chat. Ask for tweaks. Refine the behavior. Adjust the difficulty. Clean up the logic. All without needing to write a single line of JavaScript code yourself. Non-coders rejoice! I saw a LinkedIn post recently showing off a fun "fruit drop" game where learners move a basket along the bottom of the screen catching falling fruit. It looked fairly involved and it made me wonder: could the AI Assistant help me create something similar? So I tried it. I laid out a simple slide with images of fruit and a basket. Then I opened the AI Assistant and started prompting. I had the core mechanics working in about 20 minutes. I spent another hour or so polishing and iterating to get what I have today. I was really impressed with just how quickly it all came together. I also really liked how the AI would point out things it couldn't do yet, while still giving me a way forward. For example, it's not able to create Storyline variables (yet), so it instead asked me to create the variable and give it the name so it could use it in the JavaScript. The attached gif shows it in action, or you can play it for yourself on Review 360, I'll put a link in the comments. While this was a really fun and rewarding exercise, it's not perfect. We're actively working to smooth things out. Have you tried this out yet? If so I'm curious: What worked well? Where did it fall down? What kinds of interactions are you trying to build? Drop your examples, wins, frustrations, and "I wish it could..." ideas in the comments. We're listening. If you've been intimidated by JavaScript in Storyline, this might be your moment to jump in.
