Spark trail effect. How to do it?
I´d like to create an animation that resembles this effect: a spark or star that leaves a trace of little sparks that fade away. I tried one with graphics that have in and out animations, placed in consecutive times on the timeline, and a motion path for the main spark. It works fine, but I´d like to know if some Storyline wizard could come up with other solutions. Thanks.Filter like Excel inside course
Hello, I am building a process-based course for people working in a laboratory. There are 9 different machines that are in the process the person has to use. I did the initial storyboarding in Microsoft Excel, because the process isn't strictly linear. For example: Turn on Machine A. It takes 30 minutes to warm up. Turn on Machine B. Do process 1 and 2. Turn on Machine C. Do process 1. On Machine B, do process 3. When Machine A beeps, you have 90 seconds to do process 1. So, when I job shadowed the technician, I wrote out the information in the order he does the work. When teaching someone new, he may want to do the entire process, but he may want to run it machine-by-machine, depending on the learner. With Excel, I have a column for the overall step process and another column for the step on a given machine. Filtering makes it easy to toggle between machine specific or full process views. For the moment, I'm building it in Rise with each machine as its own lesson. Long term, I think doing this in Storyline and putting some variables on each slide might be a better way to do this. I'm thinking I'd build the process by machine (in each scene). Then I'd rearrange the slides into the process order. The learner could then choose to view as full process or toggle for just one variable to be seen. Is there a better way to do this? What haven't I thought of that could make this easier?Seeking feedback on a short scenario-based learning module (portfolio project)
Hi everyone 👋 I’m an early-career Learning Experience / Instructional Designer and I’m currently building my portfolio through small, focused practice projects. I’d really appreciate feedback from this community on a short scenario-based learning module I’m developing. 🔹 Tool: Articulate Rise 🔹 Audience: Adult learners / working professionals 🔹 Learning goal: Help learners practice clear, respectful communication and decision-making in realistic situations. 🔹 What I’m sharing: This is a portfolio prototype, not a finished product. The focus is on learning flow and interaction design rather than visual polish. 👉 [https://share.articulate.com/FPxECjbTRXNEWb9H2gMiW] 🔹 Feedback I’d love input on (feel free to comment on any): Does the scenario feel realistic and relevant to adult learners? Is the learning objective clear through the interaction? Does the flow support learning, or are there points that feel confusing or unnecessary? Is the feedback after learner choices helpful for behavior change? Any suggestions for improving engagement or reducing cognitive load? I’m very open to honest, constructive critique — this project is meant for learning and iteration. Thank you so much for taking the time to look and share your expertise. I really appreciate it!Test Entry issues with test mode software simulation
I’ve recorded many screencasts without any issues in the past, but I’m now encountering a problem that only affects certain recordings within the same project. Specifically, the text entry field is completely missing. I know that sometimes the field appears very small or tucked away in a corner, but in this latest recording, I can’t locate it at all. I’ve tried inserting a new text entry field manually, but the course doesn’t recognize any input because it’s expecting the original field created during the screencast capture. This has been incredibly frustrating, and I could really use some help resolving it.Morph not working with standard states
Greetings, I want to use the Morph transition with buttons that have both Hover and Visited states, using Storyline's own coded states, but to my surprise, the buttons don't follow along, unless I make custom states that I manually program with triggers. This seems like extra work for something that shouldn't be that jarring. Is there any plan to make the Morph transition work with SL's own states? The transition happens a lot of possibilities, but "not working with standard states" and "not working with layers" really grind my progress to a halt. Thanks in advance.Introducing AI Chat + JavaScript Entrance Animations
Now you can chat with AI to generate simple JavaScript animations for your slide, making it easier to bring your ideas to life. Update to the latest version to give it a try and let us know what you think! To help you get started, we have a video walkthrough, a tutorial course, and documentation to learn more about how it works, see sample prompts, and animation examples that can all be found here. Why JavaScript? This update is our first step in helping authors experiment and push creative boundaries. Based on your feedback, we’re already working on support for built-in animations—and we’ll be sharing a preview soon! We’re also exploring more ways AI can handle tedious tasks for you, so let us know what you’d like AI Assistant to be able to do for you! Try It Out! Use AI Chat to make an object fly in from the right side of the screen after one second. Feel free to get creative—frisbee flying across a park? Plane flying across a cloudy sky? Sky's the limit (see what we did there?)! Share your example in the comments below!Convert 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 object
