Making a button set
Storyline is not being cooperative as I try to make a button set from 5 selected items. As soon as I try right-clicking, only the item I right-clicked on remains selected. Any clues as to how to get Storyline too leave all 5 items selected while I right-click to make them all a Button Set? Thank you!AI text-to-speech voice inconsistencies?
Hi everyone, I'm working on a Storyline project that includes a customer service interaction. For one of the characters, I'm using the Zoe voice from the voice library (described as charismatic, gritty, and engaging). However, when using the v3 voice model, the voice intermittently shifts between the expected delivery and what sounds like a completely different voice with a strong Southern U.S. accent and noticeably different cadence. Occasionally, switching to v2.5 and then back to v3 temporarily resolves the issue, but the results are inconsistent. As a result, generating audio has become quite time-consuming and frustrating. I'm curious whether this is a known issue with the v3 model and, if so, whether there is a workaround or planned fix. Additionally, are there other African American female voices available within Storyline that are considered stable, long-term options and less likely to be retired from the platform? The options seem to be quite limited from what I've seen. Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!Captions removed when audio edited?
Hello, I noticed today that when I edit audio to remove the dead air at the beginning and end of the audio, it also strips the caption files. I have used the process quite regularly, so am surprised to see that this is now happening. Any advice on what I can do? I can't edit the audio in an external program as it will require me to also edit the caption files and that is a lot of tedious work.Guided Feedback for Failed Exams in Storyline
I created an entry exam for an in person course and I want to provide specific feedback on what the student needs to study before taking the exam again if they fail. Here are the details: The feedback layer for each question is turned off. We don't want them to know what they got right or wrong during the exam. There are 92 questions total between all question banks but only 40 questions total in the exam, selected randomly: QB1 = 5 questions QB2 = 5 questions QB3= 5 questions QB4 = 10 questions QB5 = 15 questions For the sake of this discussion, the question banks cover Apples (QB1), Oranges (QB2), Grapes (QB3), Plums (QB4), and Blueberries (QB5). A passing score is 80% If the student does not pass, and the majority of failed questions is from QB4 (for example) I want a message on the results slide that says something like: "Before retaking this exam, take time to review topics covering Plums." If incorrect answers are evenly divided among all question banks, feedback should be limited to the two QBs with the most wrong answers; anything beyond that gets too complicated. If they pass, no additional feedback is required. Any advice on how to pull this off is appreciated!Storyline publish file deleted files out of computer folder of same name
I have a project file on my computer titled "Project 1" (not the real project name, just for example purposes). When I published the Storyline file for the LMS, I did not get a warning that there was already a folder with the same name on my computer that would have given me any indication there was a problem. However, when I went to the "Project 1" folder on my computer, most of my files are missing from that folder and have been replaced with the LMS output files, despite the fact that the files were categorized in folders with names different from the output files. I've worked in Storyline for 10 years and have never had this happen. When I try to revert to a previous version of the folder, it says there are no previous versions. Has anyone had this happen, and if so, did you find a way to recover the lost files???Per Language Videos just launched in Storyline!
Coming in with another hot Storyline Localization release! I'm excited to share that Per-Language Videos is now available in Storyline. 🎉 This removes a long-standing pain point for authors: previously, replacing a video asset in one language would overwrite that video across every language version of the course. With Per Language Videos, authors can now swap and manage video assets independently for each language, making localization workflows far more flexible. Check it out and let me know what you think! See how it works: https://www.articulatesupport.com/article/Articulate-Localization-Create-Multi-Language-Storyline-360-Projects#community-1204357-local-audio Feel free to leave any questions or feedback you have below!Critical security finding Lodash versions < v4.18 when will a Storyline 360 patch be released?
Hello, We have received a Critical security vulnerability for our Storyline 360 packages. A quick online search shows a Lodash vulnerability CVE-2026-4800 (Arbitrary Code Injection) in the _.template() function. https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-4800 Critical security findings have serious implications that affect our ability to release updates. I have created a Scorm1.2 output package today (I am using the current Storyline 360 build - July 8 v3.121.37380.0) and Lodash v 4.17.21 is still included in html5/lib/scripts/bootstrapper.min.js. We have attempted to mitigate by manually updating Lodash, but that does not work because Storyline 360 uses a custom version of Lodash. It seems that we have no choice but to wait until a release is made that contains a patch. I have searched online, and I only see Lodash vulnerabilities from several years ago. Is there any information as to a Storyline 360 update that will contain the recommended patched version of Lodash 4.18.1?Compressed video in storyline is 3X larger in SCORM zip
Hi, I'm noticing an interesting issue with videos that are embedded directly into storyline. This came up when I compressed 2 videos that were a combined 200MB down to 20MB, but the resulting zip file was only 10MB smaller. When I checked Storyline's View menu->Media Library, the video sizes are correct, but I think what's happening is that they seem to go through another round of compression that ends up creating large file sizes. I know if you check Storyline's video settings, there's an option for Compression. But the ability to turn it off is greyed out and otherwise seems to be set to Automatic. Anyone have a fix for this? Thanks, JaeLock slide order?
I am wondering if it is possible to lock the slide order in Storyline. I feel like there used to be a feature to do this, but I can't seem to remember how to access it, perhaps it's gone, or maybe I'm imagining things. Anyway, it seems REALLY EASY to accidentally move slides out of order in story view or in the mini-story view on the slide editing panel. Being able to lock the order once the skeleton is built seems like a pretty basic feature. What am I missing? Thanks for any help anyone can provide.Storyline 360 AI Audio issues
I have been running into AI voice over issues with Storyline 360. in the storyline file the audio plays fine. In review 360 the first few seconds drop off and can not be heard. I've tried starting the audio on 3 second mark and still it occurs. I've tried regenerating the audio and it plays fine in the storyline slide but when published it still drops the beginning of the audio. Anyone have a solution?
