storyline 360
64 TopicsPause and restart a video using cue points
Hi all, I hope you can help me with this problem. I have basic scene in Storyline that contains only one layer with a video and an audio file. I want the video to pause for 2 second at certain point and then resume while the audio keeps playing. To get the idea, if it were the audio I wanted to pause, I would add 2 seconds of silence in the editor. What I did was to set 2 cue points 2 seconds apart and add "Pause media" and "Play media" triggers for the video. This worked wonders, the preview does exactly what I want BUT the problem comes when I export this scene as a MP4 file. When I play the exported MP4 file, the video pauses as intended and then after 2 seconds, instead of resuming like it does in the preview, the video starts again from the beginning. Is there a way I can ensure the MP4 file will look exactly as the preview in Storyline? Note: I want to avoid splitting the video or adding layers. Thank you!2Views0likes0CommentsFont options for Closed Captions
The choices for Closed Captions are a good start (colors, fonts) but when using a black color (or any bold color) on a white or transparent background, the CCs look like garbage. And depending on the font chosen, many words unreadable. There is a black outline that needs to go away or have the option to turn it off. Thanks.7Views0likes2CommentsComments/Notes for Triggers.
I work with a team of developers. Would be amazing to be able to add Comments/Notes to Triggers. Perhaps a small icon next to the first line of a comment A simple explanation of what a trigger is doing/used for would go a long way to help team members know what other have done.7Views0likes1CommentNeed for a way to have an offline registration tool
I understand the importance of requiring the online registration verification. However, there are many of us that work on networks that cannot connect directly to the internet. We desperately need a way to still use storyline, without it stopping at 99 days. Is it possible to allow the offline registration functionality that storyline 3 had. Please, there are many of us that need this.5Views0likes0CommentsKeeping objects aligned at the same time when changing their order in the timeline
I would like to see a feature that allows you to keep an object or multiple objects aligned at their same time when arranging them up or down in the timeline.For example, you could hold shift to keep the object aligned at 2:00 seconds when dragging it up or down. I've attached a gif to illustrate. After I drag the objects up, I undo one of my actions which shifts the objects back to the left to where their timing was originally. Then I undo several more times to get them down to their original order. As a side note, I would like to see undoing a reorder on the timeline send objects to their original position. Instead of having to undo a bunch of times and jump in between each individual object (as you can see in the gif).4Views0likes1CommentRequest for Feature to Export All Text-to-Speech Scripts in Storyline 360
Are there any plans to develop a feature in Storyline 360 that allows users to export all text-to-speech (TTS) scripts used in a project into a single document, such as a Word file. Currently, it is quite time-consuming to manually copy the TTS text from each slide, especially for projects with a large number of slides. Having an option to automatically compile all TTS scripts into one document would greatly enhance productivity and streamline the workflow for many users. Thank you for considering this request. I look forward to any updates or potential solutions you might have. Best regards, Elvira11Views2likes1CommentCustom Triggers
Have you ever found yourself wishing you had a "quicklink" to certain triggers that you create all the time? I do! Example: Let's say on certain slides you want the Next button to hide right away, and then return to normal after XYZ happens. Setting that process up to work (unless there's a better way I don't know about) involves 12 clicks just to hide the Next button. Then another 4 or more clicks to copy/paste the trigger somehow to make the Next button go back to normal. Sure, once you've set this up you can go back and copy this trigger and paste in on other slides very quickly and easily...but what if you don't remember exactly which slides this occurs? And what if there are 10-20 or more triggers also on that slide so you have to hunt for the right trigger to copy/paste? Solution: I'd love to be able to add my favorite and most commonly created triggers to either the Quick Access Toolbarar, or a new "Quick Triggers" location. There's only a few I make consistently throughout my projects that would earn the title of "favorite", but what a time saver this would be... Thanks in advance for reading, and even more thanks in advance if there's a function out there I haven't found/used yet to achieve something similar! -Nick7Views0likes0CommentsEmphasis Animations
If the purpose of the emphasis animation feature is to draw the learner attention TO the element or location on the screen where the animation is occurring, wouldn't it make more sense to set the default Object Trigger settings to begin the animation when the object enters the slide on timeline, rather than current default that doesn't start the animation unless/until the learner selects the object? I've applied this feature in several past projects and don't recall having to edit the trigger to change it from "When users clicks <object>" to "When <object> enters the slide" before. Am I "mis-remembering" or has the default trigger setting changed?36Views1like1CommentDrag and Drop to multiple correct targets
In drag and drop, it would be great to have a feature where one item can be dropped to multiple correct targets. Just like the example shown in this video below, which was posted 10 years ago, but without the hassle: Drag Drop - Multiple Drags with Multiple Targets - YouTube Thank you!7Views0likes0Comments
